(2) Baicalocandona Mazepova, 1976,

Candona Baird, 1845 and Mazepovacandona Karanovic & Sitnikova, 2017

The genus Mazepovacandona Karanovic & Sitnikova, 2017 – type species: Candona directa Bronstein, 1947 – was recently erected for five previously known candonine species endemic to Lake Baikal. For various reasons, including its rather large morphological diversity, the genus is not accepted here. The five species are listed with Mazepova’s original assignments in the list of synonyms of each of the species in question, and Mazepovacandona is partly synonymized with Baicalocandona and partly with Candona .
