    The genus Eucyclops is the most speciose of the cyclopoid copepod subfamily Eucyclopinae. It presently includes about 100 nominal species and subspecies, some of them strongly requiring revision or redescription (Alekseev & Defaye, 2011; Gutiérrez-Aguirre et.al., 2013).

    The species of Eucyclops have been divided into three subgenera: Eucyclops sensu stricto, which contains most of the known species; Stygocyclops Pleša, 1971, with a single species (E. [S.] teras [Graeter, 1907]) from Switzerland, and Isocyclops Kiefer, 1957, which includes two species endemic to Lake Tanganyika (Dussart and Defaye, 2001, 2006; Suárez-Morales, 2004; Mercado-Salas et al., 2012 ).

    Species in the genus Eucyclops have a fifth leg of one distinct segment which bears three terminal spines or setae, 12 antennule segments, and relatively long caudal rami. The females have a row of small spines along the outer margin of their caudal rami.

    Because of its diversification, the genus Eucyclops contains several problematic taxa; some species groups show a high intraspecific morphological variability. This, together with incomplete descriptions, has generated a taxonomic history that includes many species with an uncertain status (Collado et al. 1984; Reid 1985; Ishida 1997) and a complex taxonomy that relies on only a few relatively stable characters.

    One of the most relevant cases of taxonomical confusion includes E. serrulatus Fischer, 1851 and E. agilis (Koch, 1838), each one considered as a synonym of the other by two diverging streams of opinion (Yeatman 1959; Reid 1985; Ishida 1998); these two widely distributed nominal species, and also E. speratus (Lilljeborg, 1901) are undergoing taxonomical revision to evaluate cosmopolitanism.

    From an ecological point of view, species of Eucyclops occur as planktonic or littoral epibenthic forms in ponds and lakes worldwide (Williamson & Reid 2001) (from: Suarez-Morales, 2005).

    Recently "The revision of the most rich with species genus Eucyclops Claus, 1893 was done. The genus Austriocyclops Kiefer, 1964 has been moved back to the subfamily Cyclopinae, as Kiefer suggested. The status of the genus Australoeucyclops Karanovic, 2006 is lowered to subgenus, and the status of the subgenus Defayeicyclops Alekseev et Vaillant, 2013 is erected to genus. Two new genera (former subgenera) Isocyclops Kiefer, 1957 stat.n. and Stygocyclops Plsesa, 1971 stat.n. were erected from the genus Eucyclops. Genus Eucyclops including about 100 valid species was split into 9 subgenera: Eucyclops (Eucyclops), Eucyclops (Breviramocyclops), Eucyclops (Ciliocyclops), Eucyclops (Denticyclops), Eucyclops (Macrurocyclops), Eucyclops (Mrazekicyclops), Eucyclops (Sarsicyclops), Eucyclops (Speratocyclops), and Eucyclops (Subterrocyclops)" (Alekseev, 2019)

    AUSTRALOEUCYCLOPS Karanovic, 2006 (subfam. Eucyclopinae, according to Karanovic, 2009)

    The copepod genus Australoeucyclops Karanovic, 2006 currently contains six taxa: A. darwini Karanovic & Tang, 2009 from Western Australia; A. eucyclopoides (Kiefer, 1929) from Indonesia; A. linderi ( Lindberg, 1 948) from South Australia; A. timmsi (Kiefer, 1969) from New South Wales, Australia; A. waiariki ( Lewis, 1 974) from New Zealand; and A. karaytugi Karanovic, 2006 from Western Australia (see Karanovic 2006). However, Karanovic (2006) mentioned that another as yet undescribed member of this genus existed in the Margaret River region of Western Australia (from: Karanovic & Tang, 2009)
