Preface
The Fifth International Conference on Copepoda was held on the Baltimore County Campus of the
University of Maryland in Baltimore, USA, from June 6 to June 13, 1993. About 170 copepodologists
from 35 countries took part. The Conference was sponsored jointly by the University of Maryland
Baltimore County (UMBC) and the Smithsonian Institution (SI). The Local Organizing Committee
consisted of Thomas Bowman (SI), Brian Bradley (UMBC), Frank Ferrari (SI), Elvie Fornshell (SI),
John Fornshell (Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology), Janet Reid (SI), Chad
Walter (SI), and Grace Wyngaard (James Madison University). Financial support from the University
of Maryland-Baltimore County, the Smithsonian Institution, the International Science Foundation, the
Maryland Agricultural Experiment Station, the Chesapeake Research Consortium, the National
Aquarium in Baltimore, and the World Association of Copepodologists was critical to the implemen
tation of the Conference. Rosel Halle and Carolyn Harriger of the Office of Continuing Education
(UMBC), as well as staff and volunteers from both the University of Maryland-Baltimore County and
the Smithsonian Institution, helped make the conference a success.
The program of the Conference included both platform and poster sessions on a variety of research
subjects currently being pursued by copepodologists. The presentations were organized under the
following general topics: Behavior, Feeding, Genetics, Horizontal Variations, Morphology, Phylogeny,
Reproduction, Seasonal Changes, Vertical Distribution plus two special sessions on copepods of the
genus Acartia and cyclopidjmosquito interactions. The Maxilliped Lecture, given by Dr Arthur G. Humes
of Boston University, clearly establishes the importance of copepods to the earth's organic diversity.
The Proceedings of the Conference consists of selected research articles from the different sessions.
We wish to thank our editorial committee (Elvie Fornshell, John Fornshell, Janet Reid, Chad Walter,
Grace Wyngaard) and over 150 colleagues throughout the world who reviewed the contents of these
Proceedings. The articles published here reflect the diverse research interests of copepodologists today,
and are distinguished by their high quality. Their impact will ensure that this volume is consulted by a
wide range of research biologists.
