Approximately 199 cladoceran species, 5 marine and 194 freshwater and continental saltwater species, live in China. Of these, 89 species are discussed in this paper. They belong to the 4 cladoceran orders, 10 families and 23 genera. There are 2 species in Leptodoridae; 6 species in 4 genera and 3 families in order Onychopoda; 18 species in 7 genera and 2 families in order Ctenopoda; and 63 species in 11 genera and 4 families in non-Radopoda Anomopoda. Five species might be endemic of China and three of Asia. Many records are suspect at the species level, and numerous taxonomic problems remain to be settled.
中国大约有199种枝角类动物，其中5种生活在海洋，194种生活在淡水和内陆咸水水域。本文讨论了其中的89种。它们隶属于枝角类的4个目、10个科和23个属。其中，薄皮溞科有2种；仙达溞目3个科4个属有6种；栉足溞目2个科7个属有18种；裸腹溞亚目（非盘肠溞目）4个科11个属有63种。有5个物种可能为中国特有，3个可能为亚洲特有。许多物种水平的记录存疑，众多分类学问题仍有待解决。
