FUENTES-REINES, Juan M. and ELMOOR-LOUREIRO, Lourdes M.A.. First record of Karualona penuelasi (Cladocera: Anomopoda: Chydoridae) from Colombia. Rev. Mex. Biodiv. [online]. 2015, vol.86, n.4, pp.1091-1094. ISSN 2007-8706. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rmb.2015.06.015.
The cladoceran Karualona penuelasi (Dumont & Silva-Briano, 2000) (Anomopoda: Chydoridae) was found associated with the aquatic macrophytes Eichhornia crassipes in Cerro de San Antonio Swamp, Magdalena Department, Colombia. This record represents the first one of the species in Colombia and in South America. Comments on Karualona muelleri (Richard, 1897) and Karualona karua (King, 1853) are included.
