5 Plankton_crustacea
5.1 Copepoda
Copepods are a very abundant class of crustacea within the planktonic organisms. For this reason they are separated from the other crustaceans. The classification of copepoda is based on the morphology especially on the size of the antennule, the chepalosome et urosme (Figure 5.1).
The three orders differ in the following ways:
- Calanoids have antennules longer than the cephalosome and the urosome smaller than the prosome (@fig-calanoida).
- Cyclopoida have antennules longer than the cephalosome and the urosome the same length as the prosome (Figure 5.3).
- Harpacticoida have antennules smaller than cephalosome and an inconspicuous division between the urosome and prosome
