“…genome skimming) are potentially powerful tools to overcome these issues. For example, we employed genome skimming using Illumina technology from approximately 100 ng of DNA (< 5 ng/μl), non-destructively extracted from a single specimen of Nannopus ganghwaensis (Vakati et al 2016), a benthic harpacticoid copepod. The results yielded a complete mitochondrial genome with good coverage (Vakati et al unpublished).…”

Copepods are important ecologically and represent a large amount of aquatic biomass in both freshwater and marine systems. Despite this, the taxonomy of copepods and other meiofauna is not well understood, hampered by tiny sizes, cryptic taxa, intraspecific polymorphisms and total specimen destruction where DNA methods are employed. In this article we highlight these issues and propose a more up-to-date approach for dealing with them. Namely, we recommend non-destructive DNA extraction methods, coupled with high-throughput sequencing (HTS). Whilst DNA yields may be low, they should still be sufficient for HTS library preparation and DNA sequencing. At the same time morphological specimens can be preserved and the crucial link between morphology and DNA sequence is maintained. This is critical for an integrative taxonomy and a fuller understanding of biodiversity patterns as well as evolutionary processes in meiofauna.

The genera Nannopus Brady, 1880 and Ilyophilus Lilljeborg, 1902 are reappraised based on the characteristic features of a new species, Nannopus parvipilis sp. nov., collected from the brackish mud flat on Jindo Island, South Korea. Nannopus species have long been known as having a two-segmented P3 endopod. However, we discovered N. parvipilis sp. nov. having a one-segmented P3 endopod in accordance with the description of the genus by Brady. It implies that Brady’s generic diagnosis was appropriate and tentatively correct, and such species having a two-segmented P3 endopod but still being placed in Nannopus should be excluded from the genus. The genus Ilyophilus Lilljeborg, 1902, which has been regarded as a junior synonym of Nannopus, is revived to accommodate these Nannopus species. Thus, Nannopus is now composed of only two species, N. palustris and N. parvipilis sp. nov. and Ilyophilus comprises eight species: I. flexibilis Lilljeborg, 1902, I. perplexus Sars, 1909b comb. nov., I. unisegmentatus (Shen & Tai, 1964) comb. nov., I. didelphis (Fiers & Kotwicki, 2013) comb. nov., I. hirsutus (Fiers & Kotwicki, 2013) comb. nov., I. procerus (Fiers & Kotwicki, 2013) comb. nov., I. scaldicola (Fiers & Kotwicki, 2013) comb. nov., and I. ganghwaensis (Vakita, Kihara & Lee, 2016). In addition, N. palustris sensu Canu, 1892, which was commonly considered as representing the criterion of N. palustris, is established as a new species, I. canui sp. nov., based on the characteristic feature of the P3. A detailed description and illustrations of N. parvipilis sp. nov. are provided.
