    CONTRIBUTION TO THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE ROTIFER FAUNA (ROTIFERA: MONOGONONTA) FROM MINORCAN INLAND WATERS (BALEARIC ISLES: SPAIN) J. De Manuel Departament d'Ecologia, Facultat de Biologia, Universitat de Barcelona. Avda. Diagonal 645, 08028 Barcelona. Spain. Keywords: Rotifera, new records, Baleanc, archipelago, biogeography, Spain. ABSTRACT Forty-four species of rotifers have been identified in Minorca inland waters. Permanent ponds, temporary pools, flowing waters, and artificial pools were sampled. Most of the species are new records for the island and twenty- nine are new to the Balearic Isles. The families Brachionidae and Lecanidae provide half of the taxa. Keratella procurva (Thorpe, 1912), which is considered a subtropical species, occurred with a widespread distnbution in the island. Different taxa and «Formenkreis» found are mentioned. Original drawings and scanning photomicrographs of some species are presented. Typical assemblages of populations from every environment are also described. INTRODUCTION ficult if we are focusing on the rotifer commu- nities.

    Opusc. Zool. Budapest, 2016, 47(2): 123–130 Interesting rotifers (Rotifera: Eurotatoria) from floodplain lakes of lower Brahmaputra river basin of Assam, northeast India 1 B.K. SHARMA & S.I. KHAN Bhushan Kumar Sharma & Shaikhul Islam Khan, Freshwater Biology Laboratory, Department of Zoology, North-Eastern Hill University, Shillong 793 022, Meghalaya, India. E-mail: [email protected] (1corresponding author) Abstract. The plankton and semi-plankton samples collected from four floodplain lakes (beels) of Barpeta district of lower Brahmaputra river basin, Assam state, northeastern India (NEI) revealed eighteen rotifer species of biodiversity and biogeographic interest belonging to five families and six genera. One species is new to the Indian Rotifera and one species is new to Assam. Our collections are characterized by two Australasian elements, five Oriental endemics, seven paleotropical species, and one cosmo (sub) tropical species. Nine species, restricted to date to NEI, are examples of regional distribution importance in India while six species depicted disjunct distribution in the country. Interestingly, seven species are categorized as Eastern hemisphere elements. All the taxa are illustrated to warrant validation as an increasing magnitude of ‘unverifiable records’ is a serious impediment for the progress of rotifer biodiversity in India. Keywords.

Vol. 36, No. 3: 222-227, July 2020 https://doi.org/10.5635/ASED.2020.36.3.046 Review article New Record of Kellicottia bostoniensis and Redescription of Two Freshwater Rotifers from Korea (Rotifera: Monogononta) Hee-Min Yang, Gi-Sik Min* Department of Biological Sciences, Inha University, Incheon 22212, Korea ABSTRACT In this study, we identified three monogonont rotifers from South Korea: Kellicottia bostoniensis (Rousselet, 1908), Trichocerca tenuior (Gosse, 1886), and Lepadella triptera (Ehrenberg, 1830). The distribution records of K. bostoniensis were mainly located in the Nearctic, Neotropic and Western Palearctic regions. After Japan, this is the second record of it in Asia. Trichocerca tenuior and Lepadella triptera have already been recorded in Korea, but the data of two species were insufficient in previous study. Here, we describe the morphological characteristics of the three species and the trophi structures of K. bostoniensis and T. tenuior. This study is the first to characterize the trophi structure of K. bostoniensis, observed using a scanning electron microscope. In addition, we have determined the partial cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) and 18S rRNA gene sequences of T. tenuior and L. triptera for their DNA barcodes. Keywords: ‌biodiversity, East Asia, monogonont rotifers, SEM, taxonomy INTRODUCTION 1999).

  • About the Book the Format Acknowledgments
    About the Book For more than ten years I have been working on a book on bryophyte ecology and was joined by Heinjo During, who has been very helpful in critiquing multiple versions of the chapters. But as the book progressed, the field of bryophyte ecology progressed faster. No chapter ever seemed to stay finished, hence the decision to publish online. Furthermore, rather than being a textbook, it is evolving into an encyclopedia that would be at least three volumes. Having reached the age when I could retire whenever I wanted to, I no longer needed be so concerned with the publish or perish paradigm. In keeping with the sharing nature of bryologists, and the need to educate the non-bryologists about the nature and role of bryophytes in the ecosystem, it seemed my personal goals could best be accomplished by publishing online. This has several advantages for me. I can choose the format I want, I can include lots of color images, and I can post chapters or parts of chapters as I complete them and update later if I find it important. Throughout the book I have posed questions. I have even attempt to offer hypotheses for many of these. It is my hope that these questions and hypotheses will inspire students of all ages to attempt to answer these. Some are simple and could even be done by elementary school children. Others are suitable for undergraduate projects. And some will take lifelong work or a large team of researchers around the world. Have fun with them! The Format The decision to publish Bryophyte Ecology as an ebook occurred after I had a publisher, and I am sure I have not thought of all the complexities of publishing as I complete things, rather than in the order of the planned organization.

  • The Rotifers of Spanish Reservoirs: Ecological, Systematical and Zoogeographical Remarks
    91 THE ROTIFERS OF SPANISH RESERVOIRS: ECOLOGICAL, SYSTEMATICAL AND ZOOGEOGRAPHICAL REMARKS Jordi de Manuel Barrabin Departament d'Ecologia, Universitat de Barcelona. Avd. Diagonal 645,08028 Barcelona. Spain,[email protected] ABSTRACT This article covers the rotifer data from a 1987/1988 survey of one hundred Spanish reservoirs. From each species brief infor- mation is given, focused mainly on ecology, morphology, zoogeography and distribution both in Spain and within reservoirs. New autoecological information on each species is also established giving conductivity ranges, alkalinity, pH and temperature for each. Original drawings and photographs obtained on both optical and electronic microscopy are shown of the majority of the species found. In total one hundred and ten taxa were identified, belonging to 101 species, representing 20 families: Epiphanidae (1): Brachionidae (23); Euchlanidae (1); Mytilinidae (1 ): Trichotriidae (3): Colurellidae (8); Lecanidae (1 5); Proalidae (2); Lindiidae (1); Notommatidae (5); Trichocercidae (7); Gastropodidae (5); Synchaetidae (1 1); Asplanchnidae (3); Testudinellidae (3); Conochiliidae (5):Hexarthridae (2); Filiniidae (3); Collothecidae (2); Philodinidae (Bdelloidea) (I). Thirteen species were new records for the Iberian rotifer fauna: Kerutella ticinensis (Ehrenberg); Lepadella (X.) ustucico- la Hauer; Lecane (M.) copeis Harring & Myers; Lecane tenuiseta Harring: Lecane (M.) tethis Harring & Myers; Proales fal- laciosa Wulfert; Lindia annecta Harring & Myers; Notommatu cerberus Hudson & Gosse; Notommata copeus Ehrenberg: Resticula nyssu Harring & Myers; Trichocerca vernalis Hauer; Gustropus hyptopus Ehrenberg: Collothecu mutabilis Hudson.

  • Rotifer Species Diversity in Mexico: an Updated Checklist
    diversity Review Rotifer Species Diversity in Mexico: An Updated Checklist S. S. S. Sarma 1,* , Marco Antonio Jiménez-Santos 2 and S. Nandini 1 1 Laboratory of Aquatic Zoology, FES Iztacala, National Autonomous University of Mexico, Av. de Los Barrios No. 1, Tlalnepantla 54090, Mexico; [email protected] 2 Posgrado en Ciencias del Mar y Limnología, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Ciudad Universitaria, Mexico City 04510, Mexico; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +52-55-56231256 Abstract: A review of the Mexican rotifer species diversity is presented here. To date, 402 species of rotifers have been recorded from Mexico, besides a few infraspecific taxa such as subspecies and varieties. The rotifers from Mexico represent 27 families and 75 genera. Molecular analysis showed about 20 cryptic taxa from species complexes. The genera Lecane, Trichocerca, Brachionus, Lepadella, Cephalodella, Keratella, Ptygura, and Notommata accounted for more than 50% of all species recorded from the Mexican territory. The diversity of rotifers from the different states of Mexico was highly heterogeneous. Only five federal entities (the State of Mexico, Michoacán, Veracruz, Mexico City, Aguascalientes, and Quintana Roo) had more than 100 species. Extrapolation of rotifer species recorded from Mexico indicated the possible occurrence of more than 600 species in Mexican water bodies, hence more sampling effort is needed. In the current review, we also comment on the importance of seasonal sampling in enhancing the species richness and detecting exotic rotifer taxa in Mexico.
