Abstract
FLEEGER, J. W. 1980. Morphological variation in Cletocamptus (Copepoda: Harpacticoida), with description of a new species from Louisiana salt marshes. Trans. Amer. Micros. Soc., 99: 25-31. Cletocamptus helobius n. sp. is described from mud flats associated with Spartina alterniflora from salt marshes of the Gulf of Mexico and the Western Atlantic Ocean. C. helobius differs from other Cletocamptus in its reduction to a single seta of the fourth leg endopod and by the fact that it has a baseoendopodite with only 5 setae. A table of the morphological variation in Cletocamptus is presented with detail given to variation in leg setation of C. deitersi. Intrapopulation variation for C. deitersi from Louisiana is reported; the setation of the exopods of the first and third legs varies.
