The revision of ostracodes originally established by Aurel Krause is continued and finished with the description of the following species: Primitia distans, P. elongata , P. cincta , P. excavata , P. papillata , P. plicata , P. schmidtii , Strepula limbata , S. simplex , Entomis obliqua , E. plicata , E. sigma , E. sigma ornata , E. simplex , E. trilobata , Beyrichia erratica , B. erratica granulosa , B. erratica acuta , B. harpa , and B. marchica lata . Three of these species are younger primary homonyms. For Beyrichia erratica granulosa Krause, 1891 a respective decision of the ICZN according to art. 23.9.5 is presently unnecessary, because it has an older synonym ( Beyrichia grewingkii Bock, 1867), and Primitia excavata Krause, 1892 has a younger synonym ( Laccochilina paucigranosa Jaanusson, 1957). The third homonym, Beyrichia marchica lata Krause, 1891, is considered as a nomen protectum . Entomis sigma ornata , and E. plicata are presently considered as nomina dubia . Since the type material of the three species P. distans , E. sigma , and E. simplex is apparently lost, neotypes are designated. (© 2013 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
