“…C. begoniae Sinev & López‐Blanco, 2018 was unrecognized and misidentified by the very common C. rectangula G.O. Sars, 1862 in ancient Lake Ohrid) (López‐Blanco et al, 2020; Sinev & López‐Blanco, 2018). Alonso et al (2021) informed about errors in Ceriodaphnia identifications in 7.3% of the retrieved sequences in their study.…”

Available DNA barcodes of freshwater zooplankton are scarce in regions like the Iberian Peninsula, which harbours many rare and endemic species and is considered a hotspot of crustacean biodiversity. Recently, a new species of Ceriodaphnia (Cladocera: Daphniidae) was described using morphological analysis of specimens in the Mediterranean region and molecular data on a single locality in southern Spain. In our study, we detected the presence of the newly discovered taxa and here, we provide new DNA sequences on the barcoding region mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I together with ecological information of the recently described Ceriodaphnia smirnovi. Additionally, we built a molecular phylogenetic tree and genetically compared these specimens with previously available mitochondrial DNA sequences and with new sequences of the genus recovered in Iberia. Our data suggest that this morphospecies might contain some cryptic taxa and might be more common than previously thought, occupying temporary to semi‐permanent ecosystems, with vegetation and highly variable pH and turbidity conditions. Moreover, the existence of a non‐identified clade within our phylogenetic tree requires additional morphological research. Our study highlights the need for further research on microcrustacean biota to better constrain its spatial boundaries, phylogenetic relationship and determine species hiding cryptic diversity.

“…The assemblages showed the dominance of Bosmina sp., which generally has pelagic preferences. Regarding nutrient availability, Bosmina has eurioic preferences since it has been recorded both in oligotrophic (López-Blanco et al, 2020, 2011 and eutrophic environments (George, 1974;Lotter et al, 1998;Solis et al, 2018). The main components of the cladoceran littoral-benthic community might have been favored…”

“…To assess the potential effects of temperature and predation on the phenotypic plasticity of planktonic and benthic species, ephippia of Daphnia pulex-group and carapaces of Chydorus sphaericus were digitally photographed and measured using Image J (Rueden et al, 2017). To ensure that sufficient variation was captured in each assemblage (Brahney et al, 2011;Korponai et al, 2020;López-Blanco et al, 2020), between 30 and 50 Daphnia ephippia were measured. As Chydorus was more abundant, a minimum of 45 carapaces were measured and digitally photographed in each sample.…”
