The differences observed in the valves are minimal (LV in the Brazilian population with slightly more pointed posterior margin and with anterior margin less broadly rounded), but there are a whole range of differences in the chaetotaxy: (1) A2 with 3 z-setae in C. mckenziei sp. nov., only 2 in C. zlotini; (2) A2 with additional minute natatory seta in C. mckenziei sp. nov., not illustrated for type material of C. zlotini; (3) A2 with claw GM shorter than G 1–3 in C. zlotini, equally long in C. mckenziei sp. nov.; (4) Md palp with alpha seta not described for C. zlotini; (5) Md palp with 5 terminal setae in C. mckenziei sp. nov., only 4 in C. zlotini and with distal part of largest apical claw more spoon-shaped in C. mckenziei sp. nov.; (6) Mx1-palp with 4 seta on terminal segment in C. mckenziei sp. nov., only 3 in C. zlotini. Some of these features (alpha seta and terminal seta on Mdpalp) deal with very small structures, which could only be observed with the best contemporary microscopes, and these could have been missed in the description of C. zlotini. Others, however (e.g. number of z-setae on A2 and number of terminal setae on Mx1-palp), concern relatively large structures and could constitute genuine, specific differences; they are also included in the diagnosis of the present new species.</p> <p>CALLISTOCYPRIS ROSSETTII SP.

All limbs with some aspect of reduced chaetotaxy (fusion of segments, loss of setae) to varying degrees in the different genera. A1 with 5 segments, with various segments fused in the different genera; endopodal segments 1 and 2 + 3 in T3 devoid of setae.</p> <p>Remarks</p> <p>1. Shornikov (1980) created the new family Terrestricyprididae to accommodate Terrestricypris. However, this genus clearly belongs in the Candonidae, a group where reduction in chaetotaxy (i.e. number of segments, number of setae and claws) is not uncommon (see Danielopol, 1978; Karanovic &amp; Marmonier, 2003; I. Karanovic unpubl. data). This taxon is here retained, albeit with a change of rank, namely as a tribe within the Candoninae.</p> <p>2. Terrestricypridini at present comprises 3 genera, Terrestricandona, Terrestricypris and Caaporacandona gen. nov., which together form a clear evolutionary lineage (see Discussion). It is possible that more genera will be found that will represent either more or less derived stages of evolution within this lineages. In the latter case, the diagnosis of the tribe might require modification.</p> <p>3. Karanovic, in a series of papers (2003a, b and several papers in press), has described an impressive number of species and genera of subterranean Candoninae from Western Australia. These ostracods also display loss of chaetotaxy in, amongst other limbs, the A1. However, the Australian interstitial taxa mostly also have a reduction in the chaetotaxy of the CR, which is well developed in all Terrestricypridini, and have very different valves. It is thus accepted here that the South American terrestrial and Autralian interstitial candonids belong to different lineages.</p> <p>4. Species of all three genera of Terrestricypridini have a distinct juvenile aspect (small size, narrow calcified inner lamella, reduced number of muscle scars). It is therefore probable that the presence of these genera in the fossil record has consistently been overlooked.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E487A911166C2AFF7BCB6E6570D16A	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

CR stout, proximal seta long, inserted slightly apically from mid point of the ramus, 2 stout and serrated endclaws, distal seta present.</p> <p>Remarks</p> <p>Owing to the discovery of this Brazilian species (see below), three main morphological differences between Terrestricypris and Terrestricandona can be retained: (1) A1 with segment 3 fused to segments 1 + 2 in Terrestricypris, separate in Terrestricandona; (2) segment 4 + 5 of A1 with 2 setae in Terrestricypris, 1 seta in Terrestricandona; (3) claw G2 on A2 present in Terrestricandona, absent in Terrestricypris: this claw is fully missing, not reduced to a short seta and is here homologized to G2 (see below). Shornikov illustrated a seta near to this spot, but this is a z-seta, not a reduced claw G2.</p> <p>Some other putative differences require validation as they could constitute erroneous observations during the original description of either genus. (1) T 1-palp with 3 apical setae in Terrestricandona, 2 in Terrestricypris arborea. Because Terrestricypris wurdigae sp. nov. also has 3 setae there (see below), this is not retained here as a generic feature. (2) T 2 with 2 apical setae on the penultimate segment in Terrestricandona, 1 in Terrestricypris arborea. As the additional seta is very small, this could easily have been missed. (3) Shornikov (1980) also mentioned that the eye is simple; however, as candonid eyes are generally unpigmented, it was most likely not observed.</p> <p>TERRESTRICYPRIS WURDIGAE SP.

It differs from T. arborea in a range of characters: (1) the valves of T. wurdigae sp. nov. are significantly more elongate than those of T. arborea (L/H ratio 2.23–2.33 and 2.04–2.10, respectively); (2) the s-setae on the Md-palp are more reduced in T. wurdigae sp. nov.; (3) the T1- palp has 3 apical setae in T. wurdigae sp. nov. and 2 in T. arborea. Some other apparent differences (e.g. absence of setae alpha and beta and a third seta on the terminal segment of the Md-palp) could be due to the fact that these very small features have been missed in the description of T. arborea). However, the anatomical differences cited above are sufficient to distinguish T. wurdigae sp. nov. from T. arborea.</p> </div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/03E487A911116C31FF03CF80635BD79B	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
