Notodiaptomus is a genus of copepods in the family Diaptomidae. It is the most widely distributed, most abundant and most species-rich genus of freshwater calanoid copepods in the Neotropics.{{cite journal |author=Edinaldo N. Santos-Silva |author2=Geoff A.

Notodiaptomus deitersi was chosen to be the type species by Raúl Adolfo Ringuelet in 1958.

The genus Notodiaptomus includes 34 valid species, and two species inquirenda.{{cite web |author=T. Chad Walter |year=2010 |title=Notodiaptomus Kiefer, 1936 |editor=T.
