Epicaridea is a former suborder of isopods, now treated as part of the infraorder Cymothoida. They are ectoparasites that inhabit other crustaceans, namely ostracods, copepods, barnacles and malacostracans. The suborder is found globally. Epicaridea are generally less well researched than other isopods.

  • Epicaridea is a former suborder of isopods, now treated as part of the infraorder Cymothoida. They are ectoparasites that inhabit other crustaceans, namely ostracods, copepods, barnacles and malacostracans. The suborder is found globally. Epicaridea are generally less well researched than other isopods. There is a high degree of sexual dimorphism within the order. The female is commonly very asymmetrical, often losing segmentation. Two pairs of rudimentary antennae are carried on the head. Mouthparts show little development, with only mandibles and maxillipeds present, sometimes with a second pair of rudimentary maxillae. Males are of smaller size than females and of different appearance. Development is through regressive metamorphosis, undergoing two or three larval stages. The oldest trace fossils of epicarideans, comprising preserved damage to gills of fossilised crustaceans, goes back to the Late Jurassic, and a lost specimen from the Toarcian of Western New Guinea suggests that it may go back further to the Early Jurassic. Fossil epicaridean larvae are known from the of France and the Burmese amber of Myanmar, dating to the early Late Cretaceous, and also from Miocene aged Chiapas amber. (en)

Dua pasang antena rudimenter ada di kepala. menunjukkan perkembangan kecil, dengan hanya mandibula dan maksillieped, kadang-kadang dengan pasangan kedua dasar. Jantan berukuran lebih kecil daripada betina dan penampilan yang berbeda. Perkembangan adalah melalui metamorfosis regresif, menjalani dua atau tiga tahap larva. (in)
