Abstract

We present the description of the new suctorian genus Copterus gen. n. with type species Copterus tyloloricatus sp. n. from the family Acinetidae, inhabiting the prosomes and urosomes of calanoid copepods from the northern North Pacific Ocean. The new taxon is characterized by (i) an ellipsoidal to triangular, asymmetric, dorsoventrally flattened cell body, which lies horizontally on the lorica surface; (ii) an unflattened lorica; and (iii) the presence of three to five radially arranged bundles of tentacles positioned at the edge of the body or on actinophores.

期刊介绍： Articles deal with protists, unicellular organisms encountered free-living in various habitats or as parasites or used in basic research or applications. The European Journal of Protistology covers topics such as the structure and systematics of protists, their development, ecology, molecular biology and physiology. Beside publishing original articles the journal offers a forum for announcing scientific meetings. Reviews of recently published books are included as well. With its diversity of topics, the European Journal of Protistology is an essential source of information for every active protistologist and for biologists of various fields.
