Updating Anostraca (Crustacea, Branchiopoda) distribution in Italy
In this note recent records of some Anostraca species in Italy are presented. These data widen the known distribution in Italy of Branchipus schaefferi Fischer, 1834, Tanymastix stagnalis Linnaeus, 1758, Chirocephalus ruffoi Cottarelli & Mura, 1984 ...

A morphologically generalized Eurasian Pleuroxus aduncus species group (Cladocera: Chydoridae) is paraphyletic and contains denticulated P. truncatus, with an analog in the American Pleuroxus [PDF]
Most publications on the water fleas (Crustacea: Cladocera) have focused, and continue to focus, on the genus Daphnia O.F. Müller, 1785 which represents a model for several branches of recent biological sciences.

Diversity and distribution of the cladocerans (Crustacea, Branchiopoda) in Thailand
An updated checklist of the cladoceran fauna from inland aquatic habitats in Thailand (a high-diversity hotspot in Southeast Asia), based on published cladoceran records found in literature is presented. The checklist updates nomenclature and species distributions, especially habitat preferences. A total of 138 valid recorded species is relatively high.
