Due to the recent increasing importance of microcharacters in copepod taxonomy, it has become evident that many species lacking detailed descriptions actually constitute to a species complex. In this study,    Nitocra   affinis    is redescribed based on lectotype material from Lake Timsah (Egypt) which facilitated a thorough detailed comparison with specimens of    N.   affinis    recorded from distantly related localities. The results unequivocally revealed that the specimens of    N.   affinis    examined in this study belong to a different species. As a result, four new species,    Nitocra   sonmezi    sp. nov.  and    Nitocra   serdarsaki    sp. nov.  from the Turkish coast,    Nitocra   alperi    sp. nov.  from the Indian Ocean, and    Nitocra   loweae    sp. nov.  from Brighton, England are herein described as new to science. On the other hand, all subspecies of    N.   affinis   , namely    N.   affinis   rijekana    Petkovski, 1954,    N.   affinis   californica    Lang, 1965,    N.   affinis   stygia   ,  Por. 1968 , and    N.   affinis   colombiensis    Fuentes-Reinés &amp; Suárez-Morales, 2014 are elevated to species rank. An updated key the species of theaffinis    group is also provided.
