Introduction
Little is known about artotrigids. Many have been found on sponges, corals and bryozoans, so it is assumed that the copepods are associates. Twenty-one genera, and over 70 species are recognised. In addition, there is one genus inquirendum. See Boxshall & Halsey (2004: 710) for more details as well as a key to the genera.
ID Keys
For a key to the genera see Boxshall & Halsey (2004).
