Abstract
Three brackish-water harpacticoid species belonging to the family Cletodidae are reported from the salt marshes in South Korea:Limnocletodes behningi Borutzky, 1926,L. angustodes Shen and Tai, 1963 andKollerua longum (Shen and Tai 1979). Two genera,Limnocletodes andKollerua, and the three species are newly added to Korean fauna. This paper deals with the redescription and systematic accounts of them, with detailed illustrations.
