Abstract
Eucyclops miracleae sp. nov. from the Albufera Mediterranean lagoon, and Eucyclops romaniensis sp. nov. from a spring in the vicinity of Valencia, both from Spain, are described. These new species belong to the serrulatus group because of the structure of the antennula possessing a smooth hyaline plate on three distal segments and the antenna bearing a group of hair-like setae on the top of the anterior side of the antennal basis. The new species are clearly distinguishable from the type species of the genus, E. serrulatus (Fischer, 1851), by missing a gap between hair-like setae on the outer side of the P4 coxal spine. A key for Eucyclops species inhabiting surface and subterranean waters of Europe is given.
