| | Rem.: | Type: Acrocalanus longicornis Giesbrecht,1888. Total: 5 spp.
For Bowman (1958, p.121) the species of Acrocalanus are most conveniently distinguished by the shape of the cephalothorax in lateral view.
Diagnosis from Bradford-Grieve (1994, p.46) :
- As for the family definition.
- Rostrum with long slender filaments.
- Pegigerous segments 4 and 5 incompletely separated.
- A1 long .
- Basis of P1 with an inner-edge seta.

| | [6] Acrocalanus sp. Ardania, Wardiatno & Kamal, 2017 (F) [Figs] | |
| | | | Rem.: | Type: Bestiola zeylonica Andronov, 1972. Andronov (1972 a) defines the genus Bestiola during the description of a form (B. zeylonica), similar to 3 species of Acrocalanus (A. inermis, A. similis , A. sinicus).
The genus Bestiola distinguishes itself from Acrocalanus by a shortened rostrum in the (M) and the (F), a rudimentary P5 in the (F) along with the right rami in the (M), the absence of teeth on the external margin of art. 2 and 3 of the P2-P4; Ri3 of P3 and P4 with 6 s.. Under these conditions, the 3 above species placed among Acrocalanus belong to the new genus Bestiola.
Andronov (1991, p.133) changes this already used name in Bestiolina. | | | | (2) Bestiolina Andronov, 1991 | |
| | Rem.: | type: Bestiola zeylonica Andronov,1972. Total: 8 spp. + 1 undet.
Diagnosis from Bradford-Grieve (1994, p.51) :
- As for the family definition.
- Rostrum shortened in males and females.
- Male with dorsal cephalic hump.
- Basis of P1 with an inner edge seta.
- Endopod segment 3 of P3 and P4 with 6 setae.
- P5 rudimentary and knob-like in females.
- P5 male elongated on the left and a rudimentary knob on the right.
- Outer edges of exopod segments 2 and 3 of P2-P4 devoid of teeth and there are only 6 setae on endopod 3 of P3 and P4.
According Moon & al. (2010, p.39) the genus was separated from the other genera within the Paracalanidae based: 1- absence of serration on the outer margins of 2nd and 3rd exopodal segments of P2 to P4; 2 - female P5 reduced to 2 rounded lobes; 3- male P5 with reduced rounded lobe of right leg and 5-segmented left leg, with tiny non articulated process and relatively long terminal spine. Moon & al. (2010, p.39) suggest that the ornamentation on exopodal segment 2 of P2 to P4 may play an role in separating Bestiolina species.
After Suarez-Morales & Almeyda-Artigas (2016, p.307) , the species of Bestiolina are in general very much alike in terms of body shape and proportions, body segmentation and leg armature but they can be distinguished by subtle characters. The spinulation pattern on the anterior and posterior surfaces of the exopodal and endopodal segments of P2-P4 is the most relevant character used to separate species, but also there are differences in the presence or absence of minute spinules on the posterior corners of the 5th pedigerous somite, and the structure of the rostrum, among other characters. |

| | Rem.: | Type: Paracalanus crassirostris Dahl,1894. Total: 8 spp. (if the genus is maintained).
Diagnosis from Bradford-Grieve (1994, p.69) :
- As in the family definition.
- The fusion line between pedigers 4 and 5 usually conspicuous.
- Rostrum bifurcated, short and solid.
- Cephalic dorsal hump absent in the male.
- Female urosome 4-segmented.
- A1 25-segmented.
- Basis of P1 without inner-edge seta, endopod with 1- or 2-segmented.
- Posterior and lateral surfaces of P2-P4 may be ornamented with spines.
P5 2)segmented, symmetrical in femalewith short terminal spines.
- P5 male asymmetrical, left leg 5-segmented, right leg 2- or 3-segmented.
For S.Y. Moon & al. (2014, p.41) the genus Parvocalanus shows many similarities with Paracalanus, but differs by: 1- rostrum short, broad and bifurcated in both sexes; 2- distal segment of P5 terminal spines short in female; 3- absence of a medial keel-like dorsal hump on the cephalosome of male. However, 5 species of Parvocalanus have been described and/or illustrated as having 1 inner seta on the basis of P1 ( arabiensis, dubia, leei, scotti, serratipes). The authors slightly modifye the generic diagnosis of Parvocalanus : basis of P1 with or without inner seta and endopod of P1 unsegmented or 2-segmented (to accommodate P. arabiensis).
A molecular phylogeny discriminates the genera Parvocalanus and Paracalanus, with Parvocalanus placed as sister to the rest of paracalanid genera (Cornils & Blanco-Bercial, 2013). But the morphological phylogeny assessed in parallel by the same authors failed to separate the two genera, although it should be remarked that the morthological dataset used was extremely poor due to the poorness of the original species descriptions.
Diagnosis from K.S. Kesarkar & A.C. Anil (2010, p.407) :
1 - Basis 2 of P1 usually without inner edge seta.
2 - Endopod of P1 with 1 or 2-segmented.
3 - P1 with endopodal segment 2 with 6 setae. |
