DRA Dela Cruz, GAA Viernes, JF Wong, ESP Dela Paz and ML Lopez, June 2016 (UST-ZRC 0100A–B, 2 spec.). Short description. The head is large and rectangular in shape, with no clear demarcation between the head and body along the dorsal surface. Head shield is present. The eye is small near the rostrum. The long rostrum is fused with the immobile antennules, with a slight concavity between the 2 parts. The antennules have a characteristic pointed projection along the midline. The postabdominal claw is almost straight with 6 spines and the distal part finely ciliated. Morphological characteristics concur with the descriptions and illustrations of Fernando (1992) and Pascual et al. (2014). Ecological distribution. Bosmina fatalis is widely distributed in lakes, rivers, creeks, and reservoirs. This species is a primary grazer in the freshwater habitats and has a good defensive mechanism (akinesis) against its predator which allows them to live in the pelagic zone despite of its small body size (Rizo et al. 2017)., Published as part of Dela Paz, Erica Silk P., Lopez, Mark Louie D., David, Christian Irvin Harvey A., Dela Cruz, Dave Ryan A., Viernes, Gian Alfonso A., Wong, Jac Fritgerald & Papa, Rey Donne S., 2018, Freshwater microcrustaceans (Cladocera: Anomopoda and Ctenopoda, Copepoda: Cyclopoida and Calanoida) in the highly urbanized Metropolitan Manila area (Luzon, Philippines), pp. 751-762 in Check List 14 (5) on page 753, DOI: 10.15560/14.5.751, {"references":["Pascual JAF, Rizo EZC, Han B, Dumont HJ, Papa RDS (2014) Taxonomy and distribution of four Cladoceran families (Branchiopoda: Cladocera: Moinidae, Bosminidae, Chydoridae and Sididae) in Philippine inland waters.

Family Ilyocryptidae Smirnov, 1992 Ilyocryptus spinifer Herrick, 1882 Synonyms in Philippine literature: Ilycryptus longiremis Sars, 1888 and Ilyocryptus verrucosus Daday, 1905. Philippine records: Mamaril, 1986, 2001. General geographic distribution: This is a common species distributed from North and South America, South Asia and Australia. Distribution in the Philippines. Luzon: Batangas –Nasugbu; Bulacan –Bustos Dam and Malolos; Cagayan –Buguey; National Capital Region–La Mesa Dam, Marikina, and UP Diliman Campus; Manila-Laguna-Rizal: Laguna de Bay; Nueva Ecija –Pantabangan Dam. Negros: Negros Occidental – Bacolod; Negros Oriental –Sibulan. Mindanao: Agusan del Norte –Lake Mainit; Lanao del Sur –Lake Lanao. Remarks. It is the dominant species of Family Ilyocryptidae in most freshwater bodies of the tropics and subtropics (Jeong et al., 2012; Kotov & Sanoamuang, 2005). It is usually associated with large tropical lakes with a good coverage of vegetation (Kotov & Stifter, 2006). Philippine population needs to be compared with others to determine morphological differences among population and identify probable sibling species (Frey, 1982; Kotov & Elías-Gutiérrez, 2009; Kotov & Sanoamuang, 2004)., Published as part of Lopez, Mark Louie D., Pascual, Jhaydee Ann F., Dela Paz, Erica Silk P., Rizo, Eric Zeus C., Tordesillas, Dino T., Guinto, Shea Kathleen, Han, Boping, Dumont, Henri J., Mamaril, Augustus C., Sr & Papa, Rey Donne S., 2017, Annot ated checklist and insular distribution of f reshwater microcrustaceans (Copepoda: Calanoida & Cyclopoida; Cladocera: Anomopoda & Ctenopoda) in the Philippines, pp. 623-654 in Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 65 on page 637, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.5358372, {"references":["Smirnov NN (1992) The Macrothricidae of the World.

Moina micrura Kurz, 1875 Specimen examined. 11 adult parthenogenic female specimens from Lake Taal, Lake Sampaloc, and Candaba Swamp were examined and stored in University of Santo Tomas Zooplankton Reference Collection (UST-ZRC) with reference numbers 0072–0081, and 0093. Description. Moinidae is composed of only two genera: Moina and Moinodaphnia. Moina are found from temporary freshwater pools to brackish and saline lakes. Moina micrura are one of the smallest species in Family Moinidae. Mean length in all specimen examined is 1.1 mm. The head is evidently characterised by a well-developed supraocular depression and a large eye (Fig. 19A). The antennules of M. micrura are situated in a knob-liked position just behind the eye with two sensory setae in each located one-third to one-half the distance from the head. The sensory papillae are long and distinguishable. A distinct groove located behind the second antennae separates the head and the body. The exopod is composed of four-segmented ramus which contains heavy setation that extends from second to the fourth segment. Two short sensory setae are evident in the second antennae as shown in Fig. 19E. The P1 has reduced its filtering functions but have fewer setae compared to other sidids (Fig. 19D). Carapace is round and surrounded by 37–40 setae in the shell margin.The postabdomen is short and slender. The distal conical portion composes one-fourth of the total length. A sharp postabdominal claw contains three to eleven feathered teeth (Fig. 19C). The number of teeth varies on the body size of the specimen. Its dorsal margin is characterised by having several numbers of setae extend up to the sharp part of the claw. There is also a long bident tooth present located at the base of the feathered teeth. The long and sharply curved postabdominal claw contains four to seven sharp teeth that are also called “basaldorn” that extends towards the distal end (Goulden, 1968). Distribution. Ilocos Norte: Lake Paoay; Cagayan: Lake Nagatutuan; Benguet: Ambuklao Dam; Pangasinan: Fish Pond in Burgos; Tarlac: Lake Tambo; Nueva Ecija: Pantabangan Dam; Zambales: Lake Mapanuepe; Pampanga: Candaba swamp; National Capital Region (NCR): Pasig River, Marikina River; Laguna: Lake Bunot, Lake Palakpakin, Lake Sampaloc, Lake Pandin, Lake Kalibato, Lake Tadlak, Lake Caliraya, Lake Lumot-Mahipon, Laguna De Bay; Batangas: Taal Lake; Camarines Sur: Lake Buhi; Oriental Mindoro: Lake Naujan; Misamis Oriental: Lake Gumaod; South Cotabato: Lake Siloton, Lake Lahit, Lake Sebu (Fig. 18) Remarks. M. micrura can be distinguished from other Moinids based from its small size and by the complete absence of hairs on both the head and shell. The species is reported in the Palearctic region and also from the tropics and subtropics of America, Australia (2002) as well as in Africa and Europe (Goulden, 1968). Goulden (1968) also confirmed its presence in the Far East and Southeast Asia specifically in India, Indonesia and Taiwan. The species is mostly found in temporary water bodies but is also common in large plankton of large freshwater lakes (Fernando, 2002; Goulden, 1968)., Published as part of Pascual, Jhaydee Ann F., Rizo, Eric Zeus C., Han, Boping, Dumont, Henri J. & Papa, Rey Donne S., 2014, Taxonomy and distribution of four Cladoceran families (Branchiopoda: Cladocera: Moinidae, Bosminidae, Chydoridae and Sididae) in Philippine inland waters, pp. 771-794 in Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 62 on page 781, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.5356221, {"references":["Kurz W (1875) Dodekas neuer Cladocera nebst Ubersicht der Cladocerenfauna Bohmens.

Bosmina fatalis Burckhardt, 1924 Specimen examined. 12 samples from Lake Taal, Lake Buhi, Laguna de Bay, Lake Lumot-Mahipon and Pantabangan Dam were examined and stored in UST-ZRC with reference numbers 0083–0089, 0094A–0095A and 00134–00136. Description. Body length ranges in 0.4–0.6 mm. Bosmina fatalis has a long rostrum fused with antennules of variable length and shape (Fig. 3B). B. fatalis in the study has an oval shaped front head pore situated at the midpoint between the two frontal setae that conforms to the description of (Fig. 4D) that conforms to the description of Kořínek et al. (1997). A small and round median head pore (MHP) is also located on the dorsal surface of the head which is connected to the cord-like structure that is suggested to be a supraeosophageal ganglion (Kořínek et al., 1997). Long mucro situated at the distal end of the carapace. Setules are observed in the postabdomen with a slightly convex ventral margin and an anal opening at the lateral aspect. The postabdominal claw consists of a row of 6–8 teeth with minute spines continuing ventrally (Fig. 3C). Distribution. Cagayan: Lake Bangalau, Benguet: Ambuklao dam; Nueva Ecija: Pantabangan dam; Tarlac: Lake Tambo; National Capital Region (NCR): Pasig River, Marikina River; Laguna: Lake Palakpakin, Lake Kalibato, Lake Yambo, Lake Tadlak, Lake Caliraya, Lake Lumot-Mahipon; Batangas: Lake Taal; Camarines Sur: Lake Buhi, Lake Bato; Sorsogon: Lake Bulusan; Oriental Mindoro: Lake Naujan; Negros Oriental: Lake Danao, Lake Kabalin-an; Lanao del Norte: Agus IV Dam; Agusan Del Norte: Lake Mainit; South Cotabato: Lake Lahit, Lake Siloton, Lake Sebu; Lanao del Sur: Lake Lanao (Fig. 2). Remarks. B. fatalis collected in the Philippines were compared to the same species sampled in Taihu Lake, China (type locality). The species is reported in East Asian lakes and reservoirs. B. fatalis can also be found from the temperate zone in the north to the subtropical and tropical areas (Japan, Philippines, China and Indonesia) (Fernando, 2002)., Published as part of Pascual, Jhaydee Ann F., Rizo, Eric Zeus C., Han, Boping, Dumont, Henri J. & Papa, Rey Donne S., 2014, Taxonomy and distribution of four Cladoceran families (Branchiopoda: Cladocera: Moinidae, Bosminidae, Chydoridae and Sididae) in Philippine inland waters, pp. 771-794 in Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 62 on pages 773-774, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.5356221, {"references":["Burckhardt G (1924) Wissenschaftlishe Ergebnisse einer Reise um die Erde von M.
