Megacyclops magnus (Marsh, 1920) is redescribed using morphological criteria. A morphometric comparison with European Megacyclops species confirms the validity of this well-characterized species, which has often been synonymized with M. gigas. The relative proportions of the apical spines on the last segment of the P4 endopodite (the inner one being shorter than the outer one) are unique within the genus.
