Herpetocypris chevreuxi G. W. Muller 1912

Description

(8) Herpetocypris chevreuxi (Sars, 1896)

and Herpetocypris romei Anichini, 1967

Taking into account the morphological variation that is to be expected in a species that reproduces parthenogenetically (males of H. chevreuxi have so far never been found), the detailed original description of H. romei rather perfectly complies with the description of Herpetocypris chevreuxi. H. romei is therefore put in synonymy with H. chevreuxi.
