The Application of DNA Barcodes for the Identification of Marine Crustaceans from the North Sea and Adjacent Regions
TLDR
This study confirms the application of DNA barcodes as highly effective identification system for the analyzed marine crustaceans of the North Sea and represents an important milestone for modern biodiversity assessment studies using barcode sequences.

Systematics and phylogeny of Cristacoxidae (Copepoda, Harpacticoida): a review
TLDR
It is concluded that a recently published hypothesis of a deeply rooted split of the family into two highly divergent lineages cannot be supported and both Laophontisochra and Acuticoxa gen. nov. are removed from the Cristacoxidae and tentatively assigned to the Nannopodidae.

Contributions to the taxonomy of the Normanellidae (Copepoda, Harpacticoida): description of a new genus from the Brazilian continental shelf and re-assignment of Pseudocletodes vararensis Scott &…
TLDR
It is postulated that prehensility of the P1 endopod was secondarily lost in the common ancestor of Paranaiara and Pseudocletodes and is assigned to the Normanellidae.

Meiofauna as food source for small-sized demersal fish in the southern North Sea
TLDR
With increasing fish sizes, harpacticoid prey densities decreased in the fish stomachs, indicating a diet change towards larger benthic prey during the ontogeny of all fish species investigated.

Genetic structure and distributional patterns of the genus Mastigodiaptomus (Copepoda) in Mexico, with the description of a new species from the Yucatan Peninsula
TLDR
Within the new species three different populations were detected, two distributed in close localities (sympatric) and the third consistent with allopatric distribution, suggesting a Neotropical origin of the genus Mastigodiaptomus.
Mitochondrial DNA Analyses Indicate High Diversity, Expansive Population Growth and High Genetic Connectivity of Vent Copepods (Dirivultidae) across Different Oceans
TLDR
This study compares nine dirivultid copepod species across various geological settings and suggests that great abundance and high site occupancy by these species favor high genetic diversity and high connectivity.

Description of the first juvenile of Aegla franca Schmitt, 1942 (Crustacea, Decapoda, Aeglidae)
TLDR
Comparisons to previous descriptions of the first juvenile of other aeglid species show some interesting features observed only in Aegla franca, including the presence of pores on the first and second pairs of antennae.

Two new closely related deep-sea species of Paramesochridae (Copepoda, Harpacticoida) with extremely differing geographical range sizes
TLDR
Two new species of Emertonia (Paramesochridae) were collected during cruises of RV “Meteor” to the Great Meteor Seamount and the Angola Basin and the Guinea Basin and raise the number of valid members of the genus to 39.

Molecular differentiation in sympatry despite morphological stasis: deep-sea Atlantoserolis Wägele, 1994 and Glabroserolis Menzies, 1962 from the south-west Atlantic (Crustacea: Isopoda: Serolidae)
TLDR
The molecular data suggest that A. vemae from the Argentine Basin comprises two deeply divergent clades, which may represent reproductively isolated, sympatric species.
