Abstract
The problem associated with the systematics of a freshwater calanoida copepoda, Neodiaptomus bouulifer Kiefer and one of its related forms was described. In order to solve this problem a new species, Neodiaptomus malaindosinessis is created in its place. The geographical distribution of these two calanoid species was briefly discussed.
