Paralubbockia longipedia is a species of copepod, and the only member of the family Paralubbockiidae. The family is characterised by the ventral position of the fifth legs, the possession of a separate maxillary palp, and the form of the endopods of the legs and antennae. The closest relatives of Paralubbockia are the family Oncaeidae.[1] Initially placed among the Poecilostomatoida, Paralubbockia is now considered part of the Cyclopoida.[2]
