Rotifers are microscopic metazoans which are generally predominant in freshwater ecosystems both in terms of species richness and species abundance. Despite their small size, they are crucial in maintaining ecological balance. In the present investigation, plankton samples collected during February 2019–January 2021 from two lentic water sources of Jammu region of Jammu & Kashmir revealed 58 species of rotifers belonging to 16 families, among which five species of monogonont rotifers from three genera were recorded to be the first reports from this region. These include three species from family Lecanidae: Lecane arcula, L. inermis, L. (Monostyla) unguitata; one species from family Brachionidae: Anuraeopsis coelata; and species Pompholyx sulcata of family Testudinellidae. Among these five monogonont species, Anuraeopsis coelata shows pantropical distribution, Lecane unguitata is a palaeotropical species, while other three are cosmopolitan in occurrence. Furthermore, comments are made on the diagnosis, seasonality, biogeographical, and ecological distribution of these species.

Until the present study, 156 rotifer species had been recorded from different parts of Iran. The present study was designed to fill in some of the gaps in our knowledge on rotifer fauna of Iran and to analyze the geographical data of rotifer records from this area. Given the location of the study on the corner of the Palearctic, we also wanted to understand the influence of neighboring zoogeographical regions on both Khuzestan and the rest of Iran, i.e. the Palearctic.Khuzestan Province, our study area, is situated in the subtropical zone of the southwest corner of Iran (Figure 1) where the province and its freshwater systems, which
