Remarks

brackish, coastal.
The authors do not attribute a sub-genus to this species. The species shows variations in the position of paired small sensilla on the rostrum, as well as in the ornamentation of setules posterodorsally on the last pedigerous somite and the urosome of females as reported for other species of Acartia.
Perhaps confused with Acartia bifilosa.
