The freshwater zooplankton of Thailand (Rotifera and Crustacea)

A checklist of the freshwater rotifer fauna of Thailand (Rotifera, Monogononta, Bdelloidea)

“…-Brachionus plicatilis Müller, 1786: records under this name most likely do not refer to this species as presently understood (Ciros-Perez et al, 2001), but any of the warm-water representatives of this cryptic species group (Suatoni et al, 2006). -Keratella tropica Apstein, 1907: we included under this name the record of Keratella valga (Ehrenberg, 1834) by Boonsom (1984), considering that the distinction between the cold-water, acidophilic K. valga and the warm-water, euryoecious K. tropica has long remained problematic, and that it is unlikely that the former would occur in the habitats studied by Boonsom (1984). - Koste's (1975) record of the nomen nudum Lepadella monostyla f. caudata (Koste) is most likely a lapsus regarding the taxon Lepadella monodactyla caudata Koste, 1972, at present considered a junior subjective synonym of the nominal taxon.…”

Impact of single and repeated applications of the insecticide chlorpyrifos on tropical freshwater plankton communities

“…2. The diagram in the corner applies to the taxa that have equal weights on the two PRC's communities in several waterbodies, Boonsom (1984) associated zooplankton species with different habitats in Thailand. By comparing the zooplankton species in the present study with those listed for the different habitats, it can be concluded that the zooplankton communities in the microcosms were characteristic for Thai irrigation tanks and to a lesser extent for fish fields, rather than rivers and reservoirs.…”

First representatives of the genus Fierscyclops Karanovic, 2004 (Copepoda, Cyclopidae) from South East Asia

“…Information on the diversity of freshwater cyclopoid copepods in Thailand and neighbouring Southeast (SE) Asian countries primarily originates from the sampling of various surface aquatic habitats such as rivers, lakes, manmade reservoirs, rice fields, temporary pools, and irrigation channels (Bricker et al, 1978;Boonsom, 1984;Lim and Fernando, 1985;Sanoamuang, 1999;Alekseev and Sanoamuang, 2006;Chaichareon et al, 2011). As a result of the intensive sampling of zooplankton in central and northeastern regions of Thailand, 45 species of freshwater cyclopoids have been recorded there (Alekseev and Sanoamuang, 2006).…”
