Description
Summary:Suborder Bairdiocopina Gruendel, 1967 Superfamily Bairdioidea Sars, 1888 Remarks. As previously stated by Hartmann (1974: 253–4), the genera and families of Bairdioidea need new diagnoses. Several previously described taxa present a number of characters which are diagnostic for different bairdioid genera and even families. One good example is the genus Bythopussella Warne, 1990, which was described (Warne 1990: 114) in order to accommodate species with robust, bairdiid carapaces but anchistrocheline (bythocypridid) soft parts. In the present study, most of the species studied did not fit completely into any described genus; conversely, single species presented characters typical from more than one genus simultaneously, and sometimes also diagnostic of both families of Bairdioidea. For example, the species ? Bairdoppilata labiata presents the enlarged anterior claw on the podomere II of antenna II (typical of the genus Bairdoppilata), but lack the bairdoppilatan hinge denticulation. Additionally, Bythocypris ... : Published as part of Brandão, Simone N., 2008, New species of Bairdioidea (Crustacea, Ostracoda) from the Southern Ocean and discussions on Bairdoppilata simplex (Brady, 1880),?
