Abstract

Mummified remains of the soft body of the species Cyprideis torosa (Jones, 1850) have been found in the Upper Pleistocene deposits (9-13,000 years ago) of the Dnieper-Bug liman, Ukraine. These are legs (antenna, antennule, mandible, maxilla, maxillule, second and third thoracic legs) and fragments of barred muscles. The degree of legs preservation has enabled us to specify some details of C. torosa morphology which are first illustrated in the paper.
