Sinodiaptomus is a genus of freshwater copepods in the family Diaptomidae, found in Asia and Palaearctic regions. The Japanese Sinodiaptomus valkanovi has established non-indigenous populations in California , Bulgaria and New Zealand, although only the New Zealand population persists due to destruction of the habitat in California and Bulgaria.[1] The genus was originally described as a subgenus of Diaptomus, containing only Sinodiaptomus chaffanjoni,[2] but now contains five species:[3]

  • Sinodiaptomus chaffanjoni (Richard, 1897)
  • Sinodiaptomus indicus Kiefer, 1936
  • Sinodiaptomus mahanandiensis (Reddy & Rhadakrishna, 1980)
  • Sinodiaptomus sarsi (Rylov, 1923)
  • Sinodiaptomus valkanovi (Kiefer, 1938)
