FAMILY HARPACTICIDAE

General Notes

1. Revisions and redescriptions.

The most recent revision is by Lang (1948) but Lang (1965) offers some further comments, particularly on the relationship between Zaus and Zausopsis.

Itô (1974) comments on the validity of Zaus intermedius and its relationship with Zaus aurelii.

Harpacticus furcatus is redescribed by Itô & Fukuchi (1978)
