Remarks.
B. meridionalis
is a valid species described from
New Zealand
(
Sars 1904
) and widely distributed in
Australia
(
Smirnov & Timms 1983
). Recently it was found that similar forms are present in the Oriental zone (
Maiphae
et al.
2005
,
2008
;
Tanaka & Ohtaka 2009
). Indeed, there are some populations from the subgenus
Bosmina
(
Liederobosmina
) Břtek,
1997
in
India
, which preliminay could be determined as
B. meridionalis
.
