摘要
A new genus is proposed to accommodate a new species of harpacticoid copepod of the family Laophontidae which was discovered from a subtidal site in Lingayen Gulf, Luzon, Philippines. The description is based on three males from coarse sand and broken mollusc shell substrate. Elapholaophonte decaceros n. gen., n. sp. is easily distinguished from other Laophontidae by its unique cephalosome and dorsal thoracic ornamentation, the oblique orientation of caudal rami and caudal setae V, and a P4 exopod-3 with the first outer spine modified.
