Description

Tanycypris centa Chang, Lee and Smith, 2012 Remarks

Previously, this species was reported from one locality in the lower reaches of the Hyeongsan River on the south-east of the Korean Peninsula (Chang et al. 2012). The specimens found on Jeju Island were collected from a pond, and indicate that the species may be relatively widespread in southern Korea. It has also been collected from the Munich Botanical Gardens, Germany (Renate Matzke-Karasz pers. comm.), where it is probably an alien species (see above under Tanycypris alfonsi). This species was recovered from only one locality (26), an irrigation pond.

Subfamily CYPRIDOPSINAE Kaufmann, 1900
