Abstract



Karyological studies have been made on 6 species of calanoid copepods, viz, Temora stylifera, Temora discaudata, Labidocera detruncata, Acartia southwelli, Pseudodiaptomus aurivilli and Pseudodiaptomus serricaudatus. they respectively showed a diploid number of 13, 13, 20, 11, 11 and 22 chromosomes.
