The Myodocopida is one of the two orders within the Myodocopa in turn a subclass of the Ostracoda. The Myodocopida are distinguished by a worm-like seventh limb and usually a rostrum above an incisur (notch) from which the antennae can protrude. Unlike other ostracods many species of the Myodocopida have lateral compound eyes Over the last thirty years there has been much research into the morphology behaviour and distribution of myodocopids.
