In contrast to DNA taxonomy which focuses on the classification of both known and undescribed species based on sequence data only (Tautz et al. 2003, Vogler and Monagham 2007), the central aim of DNA barcoding is two-fold: 1) to assign unknown specimens to already described and classified species, and 2) to enhance the discovery of new species and facilitate identification, particularly in.
The Copepoda possess at most six naupliar stages, with stage reductions primarily in non-feeding, mostly parasitic taxa (Fig. 1, Fig. 2) (cf. Dahms 2004a).Copepod nauplii bear a variable number of first segments of the second antenna: generally three in most taxa, five to six in Polyarthra (Dahms 2004b), five in some Cyclopoida (Dahms and Fernando 1994), and one to three in the Harpacticoida.
Copepod, (subclass Copepoda), any member of the widely distributed crustacean subclass Copepoda. Copepods are of great ecological importance, providing food for many species of fish. Most of the 13,000 known species are free-living marine forms, occurring throughout the world’s oceans.
