“…Cosmopolitan species comprised 10-13% of the total number of species detected, of which about half (five species) were brackish-water members of the genera Nitocra, Nannopus, Mesochra and Onychocamptus. However, the taxonomic status and wide distribution of many estuarine harpacticoids remains the subject of debate Chertoprud et al 2014).…”

“…It was shown that the similar generic composition of brackish-water assemblages was typical over a wide-latitudinal range from the Arctic to the tropics. About half of the species recorded from the Arctic to the tropics are common in the estuaries of southern India, the White Sea and the Russian Far East (Chertoprud et al 2014). In this study, predominant brackish-water genera (Nitocra, Halectinosoma, Geeopsis and Microarthridion) were distributed across a wide latitudinal range.…”

“…However, in areas separated by more than 1000 km (the northern and the southern parts of the East Sea), over 30% of species are common to all brackish-water loci, whereas this figure for marine benthic species is less than 10%. In Russian Far East waters, 40% of brackish-water harpacticoid species and only 13% of marine harpacticoids are cosmopolitan (Chertoprud et al 2014). Many widespread estuarine species actually constitute complexes of cryptic species with similar morphology, but which differ genetically .…”

“…For the Russian part of the East Sea, benthic copepods have been described from the estuary of the Razdol'naya River (Primorye) (Borutzky 1929), the Posyet Bay (Chislenko 1971(Chislenko , 1978, and Paramushir Island (Chislenko 1980); the harpacticoid fauna of the southern part of the Sea of Okhotsk had not been investigated. Details of harpacticoid taxocenes are not available for the entire region, and those data that do exist are limited or localized to descriptions of complexes from estuaries and lagoons in the Bering Sea, the Sea of Okhotsk, and the East Sea (Ivankov et al 1999;Smirnova 2012;Chertoprud et al 2014;Zavarsin and Atamanova 2014).…”

Based on novel data and a literature review, an inventory of Harpacticoida from the northern part of the East Sea and the southern part of Sea of Okhotsk is compiled. A total of 151 species belonging to 70 genera and 26 families, of which 16 species are deemed to be new to science, are recognized from the region. Twelve harpacticoid species assemblages are described from marine and brackish water soft sediments and the phytal zone. Estuarine faunas were similar throughout the East Sea and Sea of Okhotsk, both in species composition and dominant-taxon structure. Conversely, the fauna of marine soft sediment and phytal zones differed greatly throughout this region. This distinction may have been caused by differences in dispersal rates or by differences in environmental conditions. The distribution of littoral and sublittoral harpacticoids was determined primarily by climatic factors and the temperature of surface waters. Three basic sub-regions were distinguished within the survey area: Korean, which includes many tropical taxa (39%) and a smaller amount (about 20%) of boreal taxa; Primorye, where boreal and subarctic-arctic species (>40%) predominate, and representatives of the tropical complex are rare (17%); and Soya, with a mix of tropical (22%) and boreal (31%) faunal elements. The faunas of the Korean and the Primorye sub-regions are distinct, whereas that of the Soya has intermediate features.

“…However, there is also record from Australian region (New Zealand) pending verification (Defaye & Dussart 2011). The species is typical for brackish waters, inhabiting soft sediments of estuaries and lagoons close to the sea (Lang 1948, Borutsky 1952, Chertoprud et al 2014, Fefilova 2015. In Svalbard, G. incisipes was found in a puddle along the sea shore in the Grønfjordbreen area and in a brackish pond along the sea shore near the Ny-Ålesund settlement (loc.…”

Arctic landscapes are characterised by an immense number of fresh and brackish water habitats – lakes, ponds and puddles. Due to a rather harsh environment, there is a limited number of species inhabiting these ecosystems. Present biological communities are impacted and changed by recent climate-driven regime shifts. New species may appear, and existing communities may become supressed or even disappear depending on how their ecological needs interact with ongoing changes. This study provides data on presently existing and probably recently arriving fresh and brackish water microcrustacean species in Norwegian High Arctic - Svalbard archipelago. The study focused on two taxa groups, Cladocera and Copepoda and altogether we found seven taxa new for Svalbard: Alona werestschagini, Polyphemus pediculus, Diaptomus sp., Diacyclops abyssicola, Nitokra spinipes, Epactophanes richardi and Geeopsis incisipes. Compared with an existing overview for the area, our study increased the number of species by more than 20 %, and some of the new species have never been found that far north. Finally, we present a complete and critically updated revised species list of fresh and brackish water cladocerans and copepods for Svalbard.
