For Owre & Foyo (1964) this genus is synonymous with Megacalanus, a position that will be given up by the authors in 1967.

1 - Exopod of P1 with 1, 1, 2 outer marginal setae on the three segments; 2nd inner lobe of Mx1 with 2-5 setae.
2 - A1 not so long that in Megacalanus; endopod 2 of Mx1 with 2 setae, 1 extremely small; terminal setae of Mx2 scythe-like, with rows of short, stiff hairs; rostrum extends into acuminate prongs of varying length and breadth.
Diagnosis from Bradford-Grieve (1994, p.20) :

- A2 Exopod ancestral segments I-III each bearing relatively well-developed seta each longer than its segment, or shorter than its segment (Bradycalanus abyssicolus), seta on segment IV extending short of distal border of exopod. Bathycalanus); endopod segment 1 with 4 setae, endopod segment 2 with 9 large setae and 2 vestigial setae
- mx1 praecoxal arthrite with 4 posterior surface setae, coxal endite with 4 + 1 small or 2 setae (Bradycalanus abyssicolus), basal endites 1 and 2 with 2, 4 setae, respectively; endopod segments 1-3 usually with 2, 1 + 1 vestigial, 5 + 1 small posterior surface setae, respectively.

| | Rem.: | Type species: Heterocalanus medius Wolfenden, 1906. Total: 5 spp.
Mainly bathypelagic.
For Bradford-Grieve & al, (2017, p.132) Heterocalanus medius Wolfenden, 1906 is clearly a junior synonym of Calanus princeps Brady, 1883 since H. medius has a head crested and P1 exopodal segment 3 with 2 outer spines. The authors propose the new genus name Elenacalanus as replacement name for Heterocalanus in the sense of Wolfenden (1906) and designate H. medius Wolfenden (1906) as the type species, because the genus Heterocalanus T. Scott, 1894 ( in reality Pseudodiaptomus Herrick, 1889) was preoccupied.
Diagnosis after Bradford-Grieve, Blanco-Bercial & Boxshall (2017, p/129) :
As for Megacalanidae plus following character states:
- Anterior head usually rounded and without anterior spine-like processes but may be crested (E. princeps).
- Rostral filaments bluntly tapering.
- Genital double-somite bulbous, widest in dorsal view at about midlength, usually as wide as long.
- Posterolateral corners of pedigerous 5 usually bluntly triangular or rounded in E. sverdrupi.
- Female A1 ancestral segment XXIII with aesthetasc.
- Female and male ancestral segments I-V with hair sensillum on dorsal surface and adjacent macula cribrosa except sometimes on segment IV.
Right male A1 ancestral segments XIV-XV and XXI-XXIII fused,ancestral segments XIX, XX and XXI with fused gripping elements.
- A2 exopod ancestral segments I-III without seta, on ancestral segment IV seta absent (E. princeps) or, more usually, extending short of the distal end of exopod.
- Md gnathobase with ventral tooth set at right angles to main plane of gnathobase therefore appearing tapering, similar to other teeth; endopod segment 1 with 2 setae, endopod segment 2 with 9 setae.
- Mx1 with 2 or 3 posterior surface setae on praecoxal arthrite, coxal endite without setae, basal endites 1 and 2 with 2, 1-3 setae, respectively, endopod segments 1 and 2 with 1 seta each at most, endopod segment 3 with 4+1 small setae (often 4 in male), basal exite with or without seta, coxal epipodite usually with 7+2 proximal reduced setae (sometimes absent).
- Mx2: endopod with curled setae into semicircle distally but not completely curled on themselves, with row of fine, long dense setules along distal half of concave surface; long setae extend anteriorly as far as rostrum, none of setae with auxiliary spinules; 1 inner seta of endopodal segment 2 vestigial.
- Mxp endopod segments 2-6 with 4, 1, 1, 1 (outer seta absent), 2 long + 0-2 small setae (sometimes outer setae absent).
- P1 basis without anterodistal hook-like process ; exopod segments 1 and 2 without outer border spines; expopd segment 3 with 2 outer border spines.
- Setae on some male mouthparts reduced in size.
Remaks from Bradford-Grieve & al. (2017, p.131): The morphology-based cladistic analysis and the molecular-based analysis clearly identify two separate monophyletic clades within what was previously called Bathycalanus. The name Bathycalanus is retained for the group of species, including the type species Bathycalanus richardi, with a maximal number of setae on the endopod of the Md, Mx1 and Mxp and 1 outer border spine on P1 exopodal segment 3. |

| | Rem.: | Type species : Megacalanus princeps Wolfenden, 1904. For Vervoort (1946, p.48) Wolfenden's Megacalanus princeps represents the type of the genus Megacalanus and has priority over Macrocalanus longicornis Sars, 1905 (p.7). Total: 4 spp. + 1 variety (doubtful)..
Bradford-Grieve & al. (2017, p.29) note a great deal of confusion caused by the incomplete description of Calanus princeps by Brady (1883), . Also the generic diversity of the Megacalanidae was not recognised until A. Scott's (1909) description of Bradycalanus, a genus which is morphologically closer to Megacalanus than to Bathycalanus. Wolfenden (1906) recognised that the Brady's type Calanus princeps was not a Megacalanus (resemble Heterocalanus Wolfenden, 1906, as Heterocalanus medius. The authors cited agree with Wolfenden's (1906) concept of a separate genus to take C. princeps Brady (1883) in a new genus Elenacalanus.
