In the 19th century the lophogastrids, mysids and euphausiids were united in the order Schizopoda, mainly based on the biramous thoracopods. With the classification of Calman (1904) the euphausiids were grouped together with the decapods as Eucarida, and the designation Schizopoda became invalid. Until just recently the mysids and lophogastrids were then grouped in the order Mysidacea, also reflected by the previous checklists of the Italian fauna (Froglia et al., 1995; Ariani & Wittmann, 2005). Based on morphological data (Schram, 1984; Richter & Scholz, 2001) and increasing genetic evidence (Meland & Willassen, 2007), a possible monophyly of the formerly acknowledged Mysidacea became increasingly unlikely, and therefore the two groups are now classified separately as the orders Lophogastrida and Mysida. Both orders are treated here in a single contribution exclusively for reasons of brevity.
