ABSTRACT: Copepods are considered as an important bio-indicator of environmental changes as they are sensitive to environmental changes, these bio-indicators are critical to the functioning of ocean food webs due to their abundance and role in the ecosystem, they mainly serve as prey for most if not all, aquatic organisms. Class copepoda has three main orders Calanoida, Cyclopoida and Harpacticoida. Retrieved papers from various scientific publications pertaining to copepod species found in selected Southeast Asian countries namely Indonesia, Vietnamn, Thailand and Philippines. The countries were then cross-referenced with each other to find common species amongst them. A total of 189 freshwater copepod species have been found all through the four countries used as reference Indonesia (70) Vietnam (43) Thailand (41) Philippines (35) and 525 saltwater species Indonesia (102) Vietnam (125) Thailand (153) Philippines (145). Only one freshwater species (Mesocyclops aspericomis) is common amongst the four countries and 8 saltwater species was found to be common (Acartia erythraea, Acartia negligens, Acrocalanus gibber, Acrocalanus gracilis, Acrocalanus longicornis, Calocalanus pavo, Oithona nana, Oithona plumifera). Kywords: Copepods, Freshwater, Saltwater.
