Keywords: Ostracoda, Cyprideis torosa, nomenclature, taxonomy
Abstract. The historical development of the complex nomenclature and taxonomy of the ostracod species Cyprideis torosa(Jones, 1850) is reviewed. Based on published volumes of the Kempf Database Ostracoda, the long span of time in which nomenclatural and taxonomic uncertainty existed is also documented.
