First study on the zooplankton of the Kerid (Kerið) Crater Lake, Iceland
Journal Title: ZooNotes - Year 2014, Vol 55, Issue 0
Abstract
We studied the qualitative composition of zooplankton of the Kerid Crater Lake. We found 10 taxa from which five rotifers and two lower crustaceans. Three of the recorded species are new to the freshwater fauna of Iceland: the rotifer species Keratella cf. americana Carlin, 1943 and Colurella sulcata (Stenroos, 1898), and the crustacean harpacticoid Bryocamptus (Bryocamptus) minutus (Claus, 1863).
