(5) The genus
Candonocypris
Sars, 1894
is diagnosed, among others, by a spatulate terminal Mx1-palp segment and two so-called âfâ-setae on the cleaning leg (L7, T3) (
Martens 2001a
,
2001b
;
Karanovic 2012
). From this, it follows that a number of species commonly assigned to
Candonocypris
do not belong there:
C. deeveyi
Tressler, 1954
,
C. pascheri
(Brehm, 1923)
and
C. pugionis
Furtos, 1936
carry one single f-seta on their cleaning leg, while
C. fitzroyi
McKenzie, 1966
has a cylindrical terminal segment on its Mx1-palp.
Candonocypris pugionis
fits into the genus
Trajancypris
and is here transferred to that genus (see below). As no other genus is readily available for the other species, they are provisionally kept in
Candonocypris
, but are here flagged as needing a new genus assignment.
