Is Copytus Skogsberg, 1939 (Crustacea: Ostracoda) a neocytherideid? : with description of a new family and two new species
The genus Copytus Skogsberg, 1939 was erected based on C. caligula, recovered from bottom sediments of the South Georgia Island, Antarctica. However, we propose herein that Skogsberg’s species is a junior synonym of Cytherideis laevata Brady, 1880 also collected from Antarctica and, therefore, Copyt...
