In Memoriam Maria Rosa Miracle. Limnologist

This is a book in memoriam to Professor Maria Rosa Miracle. Collecting 42 invited manuscripts in tribute to Prof. Maria Rosa Miracle. She passed away on 28 th May 2017 in Valencia (Spain), at the age of 72, when she was still active as Emeritus Professor at the University of Valencia. During her nearly five decades of dedication to research and teaching, she became globally a highly influential limnologist. Her lines of research in limnology paved the way for many new interdisciplinary themes, some of which can be found in this special volume.Soon after Maria Rosa passed away, the Iberian Association of Limnology (AIL) decided to dedicate, in her honour, a special issue of Limnetica, the indexed journal of the Association to which she was always associated as Author, Reviewer or Editor. Most of the present collection of papers was published in Limnetica in homage to Maria Rosa. Manuscripts have been contributed by various invited authors, many of whom seek answers to some of the puzzling limnological questions raised by Maria Rosa, and on the themes she liked to work on. Many of the articles have been elaborated by her former students, colleagues and collaborators, trying to address some of the unfinished products of her last few months of research activity. While collaborating with different colleagues, she left a wealth of research data which will perhaps be published in near future following her ideas and the guidelines that she has left behind.

“…Then, Alonso (1996) on his revision of the Iberian Fauna, described and illustrated Moina macrocopa macrocopa (Straus, 1820) from Albufera de Valencia (Comunidad Valenciana, Spain), being the only place in the Iberian Peninsula where he found this species. This subspecies was then reported in many localities all over the world in: Europe, Asia, South America and North Africa (Goulden, 1968;Elías-Gutiérrez & Zamuriano-Claros, 1994;Paggi, 1997;Petrusek, 2002;Mangas-Ramírez et al, 2004;Elmoor-Loureiro et al, 2010;Kotov et al, 2012;Rietzler et al, 2014;Ghaouaci et al, 2018).…”

Moina macrocopa (Straus, 1820): a species complex of a common Cladocera, highlighted by morphology and DNA barcodesFreshwater microcrustaceans are one of the most diverse and understudied groups of the animal kingdom and are best described by the use of an integrative taxonomic approach, including morphological, molecular and geographical data. In this study, we used three different types of characters, including detailed morphological analyses, DNA barcodes (COI gene) and geographical distribution to study the Old-World clade Moina macrocopa (Straus, 1820), here considered as M. macrocopa s.l. and the American clade Moina macrocopa americana Goulden, 1968. Results have indicated that these clades are different species and not subspecies, while Moina macrocopa s.l. is suggested to be species complex with a minimum of three different clades.

“…It clearly differs from two other species of the subgenus found in Russia, south Siberian C. (E.) floessneri (Sinev, Alonso et Sheveleva, 2009) and C. (E.) irinae (Sinev, Alonso et Sheveleva, 2009) in long seta 4 on exopodite III and in male postabdomen with broad postanal portion (see Sinev et al, 2009). C. (E.) elegans inhabits temporary water bodies in Central Europe of Central Europe and Mediterranean [Smirnov, 1971;Bromley, 1993;Alonso, 1996, Flössner, 2000Ghaouaci et al, 2018;Sinev, 2020], its easternmost record from Europe is from Slovenia [Hudec, 2010], at about 1400 km from Taman' peninsula and 2000 km from Kalmykia. Our data suggest that the species can be present in the vast arid area along the north coast of the Black Sea -South Ukraine and the southern part of European Russia.…”
