Carte de distribution de Pseudodiaptomus hypersalinus par zones géographiques
Surface plankton (collected in Salinity = 49.7 g/l.) For Chad Walter (1987, p.385) this species is most closely related to P. australiensis. The specific name hypersalinus does not imply that the species is restricted to high salinity waters. In Ramosus species group (hickmani subgroup) after Walter & al. 2006, p.203. See remarks in P. sulawesiensis (Nishida & Rumengan, 2005, p.31).
