Arenopontia subterranea Kunz, 1937 sensu Apostolov & Marinov (1988)

The illustrations of A. subterranea provided by Apostolov & Marinov (1988) in their catalogue of Bulgarian harpacticoids are useless for identification purposes since the majority of them are not based on Black Sea material but were either redrawn from Kunz’s (1937) or Mielke’s (1975; i.e. P1) re(descriptions), both of which refer to German specimens of genuine A. subterranea or A. syltensis sp. nov. Only the illustration of the second caudal ramus type (without the foliaceous setae) was reproduced from Apostolov’s (1973) Bulgarian material that was attributed to A. subterranea .
