Material examined. San Ignacio RS: 4 ♂, 2 ♀, Camping Monterrey, Aguará pedestrian path, long walkway, marshes, 27°52’14.58’’S, 56°52’59.76’’W, 18.xi.2018. Yahaveré RS: 1 ♂, Caaby Aguilar, roadside marshes, 28°24’03.4”S, 57°51’31.3”W, 8.xi.2015.

General distribution. Argentina ( Bachmann & López Ruf 1994).

Habitat. Neoplea argentina has been found in lagoons, lakes, marshes, and in standing or slow-moving water of streams and rivers ( Merlassino & Schnack 1979; Poi de Neiff 1983; Bachmann & López Ruf 1994; Poi de Neiff & Neiff 2006; Fontanarrosa et al. 2013).

This species was previously recorded from Iberá in association with Egeria najas , Salvinia biloba and Potamogeton sp. ( Poi de Neiff 1993, 2003). During the present study, it was collected from marshes with dense floating, emergent and submerged vegetation (mainly S. biloba ) in unshaded and shaded areas. This species was collected in association with the above mentioned vegetation in the Paraná River ( Argentina) ( Poi de Neiff & Neiff 2006).

Remarks. Neoplea argentina was collected in INR together with N. maculosa . The records from Brazil need confirmation ( Bachmann 1968; Nieser & Melo 1997; Heckman 1998; Souza et al. 2006).
