species are well known by their tolerance to diverse pollution sources and they have shown to be largely indifferent to organic pollution (Hellawell, 1986). Species belonging to this genus were found in pools highly exposed to human pollution (von Ellenrieder and Fernández, 2000) as well as in hard and saline waters of the Llancanelo lake (Scheibler and Ciocco, 2011), a Ramsar wetland located in the south of Mendoza province.
