| Summary: | Leptocaris canariensis (Lang, 1965) is a benthic copepod that belongs to Order Harpacticoida. It is essential in aquaculture sector due to smaller size and good nutritional content suitable for the growth and survival of the fish larvae. It is also an important prey for other copepod and predators to mosquito larvae. The identification of the copepod species was done based on morphological characteristic only which is time consuming and need to be done on adult copepod only. There is no molecular study being done on L. canariensis itself. |
