Type material of 10 genera, one subgenus, 110 species and 28 subspecies described by Wicher (1959), Krmmelbein (1961, 1962, 1963, 1964a,b, 1965a,b), Krmmelbein Weber (1971) and Bate (1972, 1994) are re-illustrated using optical digital technology in order to provide a standard reference for future systematic work and its biostratigraphical and palaeoenvironmental application. The genera are: Brasacypris, Coriacina, Hourcqia, Ilhasina, Looneyellopsis, Pattersoncypris, Petrobrasia, Reconcavona, Salvadoriella, and Tucanocypris, and subgenus Cypridea (Sebastianites).

The Ostracoda Subclass comprises the most expressive group of calcareous microfossils in the deposits of the Araripe Basin, especially in its post-rift sequence, which is represented by the Santana Group, of Late Aptian age (= Alagoas Local Stage). Due to the abundance, ostracod species are of great importance for understanding the evolution of the Araripe Basin, with direct application in biostratigraphic and paleoecological analyses. Improving these important applications involves refining the taxonomy of these ostracods, which also contributes to understanding the diversity of this fauna.

Of these, six are newly recorded for Japan, including two new species, belonging to the genera Pseudostrandesia and Tanycypris. Pseudostrandesia tenebrarum Smith & Ozawa, 2021, previously suspected to be an alien species in Japan, was again found in pet shops in this study.

Article Synopsis
- The study provides transcriptomic data for two asexual non-marine species of Ostracoda, a group of small crustaceans, contributing new reference transcriptomes and single-specimen data.
- Gene expression was analyzed across four developmental stages, showing that eggs and small larvae are similar, while adults are distinct but closer to larger larvae.
- The research demonstrates that reliable transcriptomic data can be obtained from single specimens, including eggs, highlighting the potential for studying small metazoans.
An annotated checklist of recent non-marine Ostracoda (Crustacea) from Argentina, South America.

Instituto de Investigaciones en Biodiversidad y Medioambiente; INIBIOMA - (CONICET- UNCo); Bariloche; Argentina.
According to an updated list of extant non-marine ostracods, there are 2,330 subjective species in 270 genera in the world, of which 333 species are known from the Neotropical region. However, the knowledge about the ostracod fauna in Argentina is scarce, fragmented and incomplete. Thus, the aim of this study was to present the first checklist of the recent non-marine ostracods from Argentina, including geographical distributions and ecological characteristics of the species.
