Abstract
An annotated checklist of recorded species of Cladocera (Crustacea: Branchiopoda)
from inland aquatic habitats in Ecuador (including the Galapagos) is provided.
We revised all published records, evaluated the validity of each taxon and provided short
taxonomic and biogeographical remarks for each taxon. A total of 34 valid species grouped
into 23 genera was found. Presently, all attempts to analyze distributional patterns of
cladocerans in Ecuador are premature due to the scarcity of adequate information. Current
achievements in the inventory of cladocerans, information gaps and recommendations for
future studies on cladoceran taxonomy in Ecuador are discussed.

期刊介绍:
Scientific peer-reviewed journal INVERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY publishes original papers, reviews and brief communications on morphology, anatomy, embryology, taxonomy, phylogeny, and ecology of any group of invertebrates from protistans to lower chordates. INVERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY accepts manuscripts in English or Russian and publishes them in printed and electronic versions. The Russian translations of English titles, abstracts and figure captions of the papers written by non-Russian authors can be provided by the editors. Invertebrate Zoology invites authors to publish extended monographic manuscripts after usual reviewing procedure. The monographic manuscripts can include up to 400 thousand letters and be prepared in English or in Russian. Accepted monographic manuscripts will have priority to be published in the nearest issue of the journal.
