The harpacticoid copepods, Phyllognathopus viguieri (Maupas, 1892) and Leptocaris brevicornis (Van Douwe, 1904) are reported for the first time from, respectively, the lakes Golbasi and Golkent. This is the first record of these two species for inland waters of Turkey. Males and females of Phyllognathopus viguieri and Leptocaris brevicornis were consistently found during two sampling periods. In addition, 13 other species of copepods species were found in the two lakes. © 2007 Brill Academic Publishers.
