Remarks.
Very common valid species described from
Argentina
(
Richard 1895
) and needs to be revised worldwide (
Kotov & Ferrari 2010
).
Distribution.
At this time it is regarded as cosmopolitan, yet records outside the Neotropics should be checked in detail—no molecular progress has been made for
Bosminopsis
yet, in contrast to
Bosmina
.

;
Remarks.
We fully agree with Sharma B.K. & Sharma S. (1990) that no real differences from
B. deitersi
were reported by
Rane (1984a)
. This is a junior synonym of
B. deitersi
.
Bosminopsis longirostris

General record

Remarks.
Misspelling, it could be
Bosmina longirostris
.
