Abstract
    The ordinal level classification of the copepods is based on Huys & Boxshall (1991). Data on the pelagic copepods were drawn primarily from the two excellent volumes on the diversity and distribution of pelagic copepods published by Claude Razouls (1995, 1996). These data were supplemented with the new taxa recorded or described from European waters since 1996 (Fosshagen et al., in press; Jaume & Boxshall, 1995, 1996a-d, 1997a-b; Jaume et al., 1999; Jaume et al., in press; Markhaseva, 1996; Zagami et al., 2000) and updated to include recent changes in nomenclature (Belmonte, 1998; Böttger-Schnack, 1999; Boxshall & Jaume, in press; Huys & Böttger-Schnack, 1997). Included in these papers are the many new taxa that have been discovered in anchialine cave habitats in the Mediterranean region and in the Canary Islands.

    The parasitic copepods of marine fishes have been compiled primarily from the following major sources: the monograph of Kabata (1979 and the analysis of species richness of parasitic copepods of Mediterranean fishes by Raibaut, Combes & Benoit (1998). Other changes and new species are included (Boxshall, in press; Hogans, 1987). The copepods associated with marine invertebrate hosts in Northern European waters were summarised by Gotto (1993). Data for copepods from invertebrates in Southern European waters and the Mediterranean region were widely scattered through the primary literature and are probably only 90 to 95% complete. Data has been drawn from standard references (e.g. Giesbrecht, 1899; Illg & Dudley, 1961, 1965, 1980) and supplemented by information from subsequent publications (Boxshall & Defaye, 1995; Ho et al., 1998; Holmes, 1998; Humes & Boxshall, 1996; Lamb et al., 1996; López-González, et al., 1998; López-González & Conradi, 1996; Marchenkov & Boxshall, 1995; O’Reilly, 1995). The order Monstrilloida has been the subject of profound nomenclatural change (see Grygier, 1995 and 1997).Additional data and corrections were provided by Myles O’Reilly and Dusan Zavodnik.
