Eocyzicus parooensis Richter & Timms, 2005

= Limnadia sp. b, Timms, 1993

= Eocyzicus sp. a, Timms & Richter, 2002

Comments: New South Wales, Northern Territory, South Australia, Queensland, and Western Australia, Australia. The type locality is Gidgee Lake on Bells Creek, on Bloodwood Station. This species occurs in hyposaline basins.

Eocyzicus parvus Tippelt & Schwentner, 2018 = Eocyzicus View in CoL lineage T Schwentner et al., 2013

Comments: Queensland, Australia. Known only from the type locality: 27°58'26.8"S, 144°18'34.9"E.

Eocyzicus phytophilus Tippelt & Schwenter, 2018

= Eocyzicus lineage Y Schwentner et al., 2013

Comments: Australia: New South Wales, South

Australia, Queensland.

Eocyzicus plumosus Royan & Sumitra, 1973 = Eocyzicus palpalis Simhachalam & Timms, 2012

Comments: Southern India and Sri Lanka. Type locality for E. plumosus given as: India, Racharla Mandal, Prakasam District. Pool at Racharla (15°28'N, 78°58'E). Reviewed in Rogers and Padhye (2015): Eocyzicus plumosus is known only from the original description, which is inadequate, and no types were deposited. Both taxa are reported from the same region and the same saline habitat types, and the minor differences between the two forms are likely age dependant ( Rogers and Padhye 2015).

Eocyzicus richteri Tippelt & Schwentner, 2018 = Eocyzicus View in CoL lineage X Schwentner et al., 2013

Comments: Australia: New South Wales, South

Australia, Queensland.

Eocyzicus saharica ( Gauthier, 1937)

= Estheria saharica Gauthier, 1937

= Eocyzicus saharaicus ( Gauthier, 1937)

Comments: Described from a pool near Agueraktem well, in Adrar Province, Mauritania ( Gauthier 1937 1938). Gauthier later (1939) reported some possible subadults from eastern Chad. Thiéry (1986) reports this species from Morocco. This species should be compared with E. irritans , E. zugmayeri , E. latirostris , E. klunzingeri , and E. orientalis .

Eocyzicus sahlbergi ( Simon, 1886)

= Estheria sahlbergi Simon, 1886

= Estheria propinquus Sars, 1901

= Eocyzicus propinquus ( Sars, 1901)

= Caenestheria sibericus Daday, 1913b nomen nudum = Caenestheria sibericus Daday, 1914: 59

= Baidestheria siberica ( Daday, 1913b)

= Eocyzicus sibericus ( Daday, 1914)

Comments: Reported ( Sars 1901; Daday 1915: 86, 93) from Kazakhstan, Russia, Mongolia, and Himalayan India. The original description gives the distribution as “Sibiria septentrionalis”, literally: northwest Siberia. The coordinates provided (70°, 20') are for Nicandrowsk Island, in the Brekhovsky Islands (actually 70°30'N, 82°45'E) in the Yenisei River where it enters the Kara Sea in the Russian Arctic. This area is frozen some nine months of the year. This would make this the most northern spinicaudatan species. Sars (1901) stated his Kazakhstan material came from a saline lake. This species should be compared with E. consors . Daday could not reliably separate sahlbergi and propinquus . Simon (1886) and Sars (1901) separated E. sahlbergi from E. davidi using highly variable characters: carapace outline, growth line number, first antennae form, and second antennal flagellae number of antennomeres. Eocyzicus siberica was described from a single female specimen collected in Kazakhstan ( Daday 1915).
