Family Moinidae Goulden, 1968 View in CoL View at ENA

(30) Moina ciliata (Daday, 1905) . Plateado reservoir (33° 04' S; 71° 39' W) ( Berrios & Sielfeld 2000). Listed for Chile by Villalobos (2006). This taxon is regarded as an endemic of South America ( Smirnov 1976).

Moina cf. macrophtalma Stingelin, 1914 View in CoL . Huechun lake (33° 02' S; 70° 47' W) ( Löffler 1961). Löffler (1961) recorded " Moina View in CoL sp. cf. macrophthalma Stingelin". We believe that he mis-spelled this Stingelin's taxon; correct name is " macrophtalma View in CoL ". Recently Moina macrophtalma View in CoL is regarded as a junior synonym of M. micrura ( Smirnov 1976) View in CoL , but it could be a valid endemic species.

(31) Moina micrura Kurz, 1874 View in CoL . Chungará (18° 14' S; 69° 09' W) ( Domínguez 1971, 1973); Rapel reservoir (34° 10'S; 71° 29' W) ( Zúñiga & Araya 1982); Rungue reservoir (33° 01' S; 70° 54' W), Peñuelas lagoon (33° 09' S; 71° 32' W), Orozco reservoir (33° 14' S; 71° 25' W), Yeso reservoir (33° 39' S; 70° 07' W), Lanalhue lake (37° 55' S; 73° 19' W) ( Araya & Zúñiga 1985; Ruiz & Bahamonde 1989; Villalobos 2006). A cosmopolitan group needs to be revised, because it definitively consists of a series of species ( Petrusek et al. 2004), even in the Neotropics there are at least three phylogroups ( Elías-Gutiérrez et al. 2008).
