摘要

Cephalocarida is a rare and poorly known class of small benthic crustaceans, consisting of only eleven species belonging to five genera Thus far, only one species (Hutchinsomella macracantha) has been studied at molecular level We report the partial sequences of two phylogenetically important mitochondrial genes (Cytochrome c Oxidase land Cytochrome b) from the newly discovered Mediterranean species, Lightiella magdalenina The genetic relationships between the two cephalocarid species are discussed
