Abstract
Currently in the Black Sea registered one species from genus Microprotopus Norman, 1867 — M. longimanus Chevreux, 1887. Taxonomical status of second species M. minutus Sowinsky, 1894 undefined and tentatively synonymous of M. longimanus. The presence of the species M. maculatus Norman, 1867 needs to be confirmed because there is no description and illustrations for this species. In this work give detailed analysis of morphology specimens from genus Microprotopus from the Black Sea (Crimea, Sevastopol, Lebijachii Islands) and SEM photos of these species. A comparative analysis of specimens from the Crimean coast and other species of the genus is given. According to the research results, the taxonomic status of the species from the Crimean coast is M. cf. maculatus.
