(7) Plesiocypridopsis brachychaeta (Goins, 1972) comb. nov.
and Plesiocypridopsis maduraiensis (Victor & Michael, 1975) comb. nov.
Potamocypris brachychaeta Goins, 1972 , described from Indiana, USA, and Cypridopsis maduraiensis Victor & Michael, 1975 , known from India, were described as having uropodal rami with cylindrical stems, which is a unique character of the genus Plesiocypridopsis (the ramus is triangularly shaped in all other genera of Cypridopsinae ; see Meisch 2000). Both species are therefore here transferred to the genus Plesiocypridopsis ( Rome, 1965) .
