Pseudodiaptomus marinus is a marine copepod from the northwest Pacific Ocean. In 2007, this species was observed in Europe, in the north of the Adriatic Sea. The species was likely introduced together with other species imported for aquaculture, or through the discharge of ballast water. In 2010, P. marinus was first observed in the Belgian part of the North Sea, near the Port of Zeebrugge. This copepod is a small organism, 1mm in size, and tolerates a wide range of environmental factors, such as salinity and temperature.
