), South American populations need to be revised.

) and Lakes región (
45° 48' S
) (
Berrios & Sielfeld 2000
). Listed for
Chile
by
Villalobos (2006)
. This species complex needs to be revised. Taking into consideration that
Camptocercus aloniceps
Ekman, 1900
was described from Southern Patagonia,
Argentina
, we believe that some of aforementioned records concern the latter taxon instead of the
rectirostris
-group.

.
Sars (1901)
was the first investigator pointing out the presence of this taxon (as
Alonella karua
) in
Chile
. He had no original samples from
Chile
, but he marked that Richard's (1897) specimens of "
Alona mülleri
" belong to
Alonella karua
. In reality,
Karualona mülleri
is a separate Neotropical species (
Sinev & Hollwedel 2005
), see below. But even after a series of recent revisions (
Dumont & Silva-Briano 2000
; Van Damme
et al.
2013), the status of
karua
-like populations in South
America
still must be reevaluated.

Richard, 1897
)

L. diaphanus
s.str.

America
, but there are at least two species:
L. davidi
(Richard, 1895)
(see Sinev
et al.
2005) and one more taxon (
Kotov & Fuentes-Reines 2015
).

2014). Listed for
Chile
by
Villalobos (2006)
. J. Paggi (personal communication) concluded that Patagonian populations from
