Abstract
Farranula sp. (Crustacea, Copepoda, Poecilistomatoida, Corycaeidae), length 720 µm, Lanzarote 3.2022. 1:00 min. In several taxa of copepods the characteristic nauplius eye is replaced by unusual complex lense eyes. In respect to body size they are the biggest eyes existing. The dioptic apparatus has two lenses, separated by a crystal cone joined by a long rhabdome. In Farranula it reaches more than the half body length.
