Cytotaxonomic studies on some cyclopoid copepods (Copepoda, Crustacea) from Ontario, Canada
The cytology of 10 Ontario species of cyclopoid copepods has been investigated. The chromosome number and meiotic chromosome behaviours are described for the females of Acanthocyclops vernalis (2n = 8), Acanthocyclops vernalis ssp. Parcus? (2n = 6), Tropocyclops prasinus mexicanus (2n = 11), Eucyclops setrulatus (2n = 13), Eucyclops speratus (2n = 13), Mesocyclops leuckarti (2n = 12), Mesocyclops edax (2n = 14), Macrocyclops albidus (2n = 14), Macrocyclops ater (2n = 22), and Diacyclops bicuspidatus thomasi (2n = 18). Cytotaxonomic implications in relation to the evolution in this group are discussed.
