Two groundwater copepods of the genusparastenocaris(harpacticoida, parastenocarididae) from South Korea

Abstract
Two subterranean harpacticoid species are recorded from cavern and interstitial waters in South Korea: Parastenocaris ondali n. sp. and P. brevipes Kessler, 1913. Parastenocaris ondali n. sp. resembles P. nipponensis Chappuis, 1955 from Japan, but differs from it by shorter caudal rami, armature of leg 5, and short endopodal processes of leg 4 in both sexes. Herein, the new species is described, and systematic accounts of both species are provided with detailed illustrations.
