This name refers to the absence of the inner seta on P 4 enp- 3 in the female of the new species. Remarks. The new species, Zosime destituta sp. nov. , is very similar to Z. valida Sars, 1919 which was originally described from outside the Oslofjord (Sars 1919). Females of both species share the presence of 5 elements on P 1 exp- 3 and 2 setae on P 5 endopodal lobe, and the length to width ratio of caudal ramus (about 2.0: 1; Table 1). However, Zosime destituta and Z . valida can be differentiated by the combination of the following features: the number of segments of the antennule (6 segments in Z. destituta , but 7 segments in Z . valida ); the absence of the inner seta on P 4 enp- 3 in Z. destituta , but it is present in Z. valida P 6 being represented by 3 setae in Z. destituta , but with 2 setae in Z. valida . The absence of the inner seta on P 4 enp- 3 of Z. destituta is unique within the genus. The only other species that displays 3 elements on P 4 enp- 3 is Z. bathyalis Por, 1967, but in this species the outer spine appears to be absent and the inner seta present (Por 1967).

Sars (1903) described subsequently Z. typica and provided the illustrations of most appendages without P 3. According to Well’s (2007) keys, the exp- 3 and enp- 2 of P 3 have 7 and 4 setae in Z. typica , respectively. Sars (1919) mentioned that the antenna, mouth parts, and P 1 –P 4 of Z. major are similar to those of the type species. Lang (1948) mentioned that the mandible of Z. gisleni is normal. Lang (1948) mentioned that the P 1 –P 4 of Z. gisleni are similar to those of type species. This species was first described as Z. major by Monard (1937) and subsequently revised to a new species as Z. mediterranea on the basis of the differences in the caudal rami, pseudoperculum, and 1 by Lang (1948). According to Well’s (2007) keys, the exp- 3 and enp- 2 of P 2 –P 4 have 7 and 4 setae in Z. mediterranea , respectively. Por (1967) mentioned that the P 2 –P 4 of Z. erythraea are similar to those of Z. gisleni . Drzycimski (1968) mentioned that the antennule, antenna, mouth parts, and P 2 –P 4 of Z. bergensis are similar to those of the type species. : Published as part of Kim, Jong Guk, Jung, Tae Won & Yoon, Seong Myeong, 2016, A new species of Zosime (Copepoda: Harpacticoida: Zosimeidae) from shallow subtidal habitats in Korea, with notes on the genus, pp. 323-334 in Zootaxa 4136 (2) on pages 324-327, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4136.2.4, http://zenodo.org/record/259610 : {"references": ["Sars, G.
