 World Association of Copepodologists Homepage
The name "copepod" (Greek for paddle-footed) was introduced in 1830 by Henri Milne Edwards (1800-1885) in France.
Even so, by that time, there was a strong conceptual framework that recognized a wide variety of copepod species and habitats; even the remarkably "degenerate" parasitic copepods were no longer thought to be worms or mollusks but were revealed by their larval stages to be true crustaceans.
The early taxonomic systems echo in our classifications of today.

It is based primarily on the authoritative work of J. Thiele (1929 - 1931), who modified an earlier concept of Henri Milne-Edwards (1848) with three subclasses: Prosobranchia, Opisthobranchia and Pulmonata.
His classification was based on overall similarity between the species; This classification has now been replaced by the classification of Ponder & Lindberg, 1997, based on phylogenetic arguments.
The classification of Gastropoda has been in use up to the past decade.

 copepods
As far as we know the first person to propose the use of the name Copepoda for this group of crustaceans was a French scientist, Henri Milne Edwards, in his Histoire Naturelle des Crustacés published in 1840.
The naming of animals is governed by a set of rules (The International Code of Zoological Nomenclature) which ensures that every species of animals has one and only one valid scientific name (which is, by convention, always written in italics).
Parasitic copepod species tend to be larger than free-living ones and have been known since antiquity - even Aristotle wrote about them.

This work was confirmed by Henri Milne-Edwards (1826) and Henri Dutrochet (1824), and the formation of tissues by the electrical formation of albumen globules became part of the Naturphilosophie of Oken and others (see 6,7,8).
One may speculate that this pre-cell theory electrical hypothesis may be the source of the term "induction", since both the embryological term and Faraday's (9) electromagnetic term refer to the ability of one unit to alter the behavior of another unit over a short distance.
