Class Ostracoda Latreille, 1802, emend. Martin and Davis, 2001 are a big group of small bivalved crustaceans. They inhabit almost all aquatic environments with high taxonomic diversity (Karanovic, 2010). Ostracods are one of the momentous groups of marine organisms, and are functionally important in the process of bio-geo-chemical cycles in marine ecosystem, especially in the tropics and subtropical regions (Angel et al., 2007; George and Nair, 1980). They also play a significant participant of marine deposition, because their calcified valves are preserved as fossils (Di Celma et al., 2016). The studies of ostracods have been well improved in last two decades, and many new taxa have been erected (Harrison-Nelson and Kornicker, 2000; Chavtur, 2003; Lum et al., 2008; Karanovic, 2010; Chavtur and Angel, 2011; Pinto and Jocqué, 2013; Xiang et al., 2017a, b, 2018; Du et al., 2018). These faunae might no-monophyletic, phylogeny remains indistinct, and classification is based on typical characteristics (Fortey and Thomas, 1998; Yamaguchi and Endo, 2003).
Halocyprid ostracods constitute appreciable part of marine zooplankton. They are floating through virtually everywhere in marine environment including surface, hydrothermal vent, cold seep and abyss (van Harten, 1992; Oakley et al., 2013; Tanaka and Yasuhara, 2016; Yamaguchi et al., 2016). In 1853, the largest family Halocyprididae Dana, 1853 (Chavtur, 2003; Martin and Davis, 2001; Brandão et al., 2019) within order Halocyprida Dana, 1853 was erected. And then, the subfamily Conchoeciinae Müller, 1912 was erected under this family. In 2011, Chavtur and Angel (2011) designated the tribe Conchoeciini Chavtur and Angel, 2011 on the basis of the locational shifts of glands. Not long ago, Du et al. (2018) erected genus Polyconchoecia Xiang, Chen and Du, 2018 with the type species P. commixtus Xiang, Chen and Du, 2018 based on the definite characteristics of locations of major glands on carapace. Soon after that, genus Conchoecia Dana, 1849 was subdivided into five genera: Conchoecia; Macrochoecilla Chavtur, 2018; Lophuroecia Chavtur, 2018; Parvidentoecia Chavtur, 2018; and Hyalocoecia Chavtur, 2018; and genus Parthenoecia Chavtur, 2018 was erected, mainly based on characteristics of lateral gland, armature of seta-e on the first antenna in the male, and copulatory appendage (Chavtur and Bashmanov, 2018). Thus far, the tribe Conchoeciini has contained 27 genera (Brandão et al., 2019).
In this study, a new species of genus Polyconchoecia from the South China Sea was described.
Collections were obtained from two cruises of the South China Sea in 2014–2015. All zooplankton specimens were collected using a Multinet sampling system (Type Midi, Mesh-size aperture 200 µm, HydroBios Inc., Kiel, Germany) by vertical and stratified hauls from bottom to surface. Collections were preserved by immersion in 5% buffered formaldehyde.
Specimens were dissected under a Carl Zeiss Discovery V20 zoom-stereomicroscope. Dissected appendages were mounted in permanent slides with CMC-9AF medium (Masters Company Inc., Illinois, USA). Observations were done by a Carl Zeiss Axio Imager Z2 differential interference contrast microscope system with AxioVision Image-Pro software (Carl Zeiss Inc., Oberkochen, Germany). All drawings were made from micro-images of dissected appendages, followed the methodology in Chavtur and Angel (2011), and further processed with Adobe Photoshop CS6 (Adobe Inc., San Jose, CA, USA).
The type specimens/appendages were deposited in the Marine Biological Sample Museum of the Chinese Offshore Investigation and Assessment, Third Institute of Oceanography, MNR (Xiamen, China), under the collection numbers TIO-OHH-PP-201 to TIO-OHH-PP-204.

These specimens are considered to be one species of the subfamily Conchoeciinae Müller, 1912 of family Halocyprididae Dana, 1853, according to the Chen and Chavtur’s diagnosis (Chen and Lin, 1995; Chavtur and Angel, 2011), and then we can put them into the tribe Conchoeciini, Chavtur and Angel, 2011 easily. They are very close to Polyconchoecia commixtus, the type species of genus Polyconchoecia, which genus has been reported recently and with only one species yet. They have shared characteristics as followed: (1) similar size of full adult; (2) the shapes of carapace are very close; (3) left valve has a left asymmetric gland near postero-dorsal corner; (4) right valve has a lateral gland on right postero-ventral corner; (5) dense edge glands are placed along anterior to posterior ventral margin of carapace in line; (6) exopod 1 of second antenna has one bend acerose spine on disto-dorsal margin instead of plumose seta; (7) the structures of main limbs are similar.
Although these specimens are very close to P. commixtus, P. chenii sp. nov. is discriminated by the morphological comparisons shown in Table 1. They have obvious and individual distinctions to separate from P. commixtus: (1) left asymmetric gland of carapace of the new species is moved posteriorly, the carapace have no right asymmetric gland or compound gland (Figs 1b, c and 7a, b); (2) the frontal organ of this species is separated to stem and capitulum, and has more ventral spines (Figs 2a and 7c, d); (3) in P. chenii sp. nov., the seta of endopod 2 of the first antenna is very small; (4) in P. commixtus, a- to d-setae of the sensory setae of the first antenna are analogic with long end joint, e-seta has short end joint; in these specimens, a- and c-setae are analogic with long end joint, b- and d-setae are analogic without end joint, e-seta has no end joint; (5) in P. commixtus, the endopod of the second antenna has not c-, d- and e-setae, and one small oval hump with central concave on mid-ventral margin, instead of processus mamillaris; in these specimens, e-seta is present and the processus mamillaris is normal (Figs 2f and 7e); (6) in P. commixtus, the exopod 2-4 of the second antenna have no swimming setae (Figs 2e, 3a and 7f); (7) they have unsimilar tooth edge of the coxal endite (Figs 3b, c, 7j and Table 1); (8) they have different setal counts of the mandible, maxilla, fifth limb, and sixth limb (detailed numbers are given in Table 1); (9) P. chenii sp. nov. has unpaired seta on the furcal lamella (Figs 6b and 8f).

The ostracod faunae of the South China Sea have been known mainly from plankton surveys in surface water or euphotic zone (0–200 m). The local ostracod diversity of deep environments may equal or exceed that of their epi-pelagic relatives (Gianni, 2004; Danovaro et al., 2008). In these years, there are more and more deep-water species have been discovered and reported (Yin et al., 2014; Tanaka and Yasuhara, 2016; Du et al., 2018; Xiang et al., 2018). This work is the second discovery of the genus Polyconchoecia from the world.
