Preliminary investigations of urban waters in Beijing City and small water-bodies in Inner Mongolia yielded a total of 12 living ostracod species. Five species are new records for China:Candona quasiakainaKaranovic & Lee, 2012,Fabaeformiscandona myllainaSmith & Kamiya, 2007,Heterocypris auricularissp. nov. (previously known asHeterocypris sanukiensisOkubo, 2004 nomen nudum),Ilyocypris mongolicaMartens, 1991 andPlesiocypridopsis newtoni(Brady & Robertson, 1870).Bradleycypris vittata(Sars, 1903),Ilyocypris angulataSars, 1903,Limnocythere stationisVávra, 1891 andPhysocypria kraepeliniG. W. Müller, 1903 are the first records for Palaearctic China.Cypridopsis vidua(O. F. Müller, 1776),Heterocypris incongruens(Ramdohr, 1808) andLimnocythere inopinata(Baird, 1843) are also reported in this paper, although they had already been found in China before. Of the above species,B. vittata,I. angulataandI. mongolicaare re-described. The present study expands our knowledge on the taxonomy and geographical distribution of ostracod species. |
