Family
Moinidae
Goulden, 1968
33.
Moina brachiata
(Jurine, 1820)
.
Recorded by
Pearse (1916)
and Álvarez (2010). Palearctic species, but it has been also reported from Africa (
Goulden 1968
;
Smirnov 1976
;
Kotov
et al
. 2013a
). According to
Goulden (1968)
, this species is absent in the New World, but
Elías-Gutiérrez
et al
. (2008a)
reported it from the northern Neotropics. The Colombian specimens should be revised. In
Colombia
, it occurs in the Caribbean region.
34.
Moina eugeniae
Olivier, 1954
.
Recorded by
Fuentes-Reinés
et al
. (2012
, fig 18). Neotropical species (
Smirnov 1976
). In
Colombia
, it occurs in the Caribbean region.
35.
Moina micrura
Kurz, 1874
s
.lat.
Recorded by
Barón-Rodríguez
et al
. (2006)
;
Aranguren-Riaño
et al
. (2011)
;
Gaviria (2001)
and
Fuentes-Reinés
et al
. (2012
, fig 16). A cosmopolitan group needs a detailed revision (Elías-Gutlíerrez
et al
. 1999;
Petrusek et al. 2004
; Elías-Gutlíerrez
et al
. 2008b;
Kotov
et al
. 2013a
). In
Colombia
, it has been reported from the Andean, Amazon and Caribbean regions.
36.
Moina minuta
Hansen, 1899
.
Recorded by
Barón-Rodríguez
et al.
(2006)
;
Gallo-Sánchez
et al
. (2009)
;
Aranguren-Riaño
et al.
(2011)
and
Fuentes-Reinés
et al.
(2012)
. Neotropical species (
Paggi 1973
;
Smirnov 1976
;
Kotov
et al
. 2013a
). In
Colombia
, it has been reported from the Andean, Amazon and Caribbean regions.
Moina macrophtalma
Stingelin, 1913
. Recorded by
Stingelin (1913)
in
Colombia
. This species is considered among synonyms of
Moina micrura
(
Kotov
et al
. 2013a
), but if known populations from the Neotropics will be regarded as belonging to a separate species, one of them could be
M. macrophthalma
.
37.
Moina reticulata
(Daday, 1905)
.
Recorded by
Aranguren-Riaño
et al
. (2011)
and
Fuentes-Reinés
et al.
(2012
, fig 17). It is considered a Neotropical species (
Paggi 1973
;
Kotov
et al
. 2013a
), while populations from Africa (
Lamoot & Dumont 1974
) probably belong to a separate, yet undescribed species. In
Colombia
, it has been reported from the Amazon and Caribbean regions.
38.
Moinodaphnia macleayi
Herrick, 1887
.
Recorded by
Pearse (1916)
;
Barón-Rodríguez
et al
. (2006)
;
Aranguren-Riaño
et al
. (2011)
;
Brehm (1956)
;
Gaviria (2001)
;
Fuentes-Reinés
et al
. (2012
, fig 15) and Fuentes-
Reinés (2014a)
. It is widely distributed in the tropics and subtropics of the Old and New World, penetrating into non-tropical areas of Asia and North
America
(
Goulden 1968
). In
Colombia
, it has been reported from the Andean, Amazon and Caribbean regions. The genus needs to be revised worldwide.
