“…Petrov & Marincek (1991), they also make the 'stugnalis error', suggest Branchipus visnyai Kertesz, 1956 is a synonym of B. schaefferi even though Cottarelli (1969) maintains it is a full species. We consider sufficient evidence is lacking to make a determination at this time.…”

In this checklist, we number the named anostracan fauna of the world at 258 species and seven subspecies organized in 21 genera. The list contains all species described through 31 December 1993, and those new species names made available in previous pages of this volume. The most species rich genus is Streptocephalus with 58 described species level taxa. Chirocephalus with 43, Branchinecta 35, and Branchinella 33 occupy the next three places. With the exception of Branchipodopsis and Eubranchipus each having 16 species, all the other genera include less than 10 species each. The need for zoogeographic study of these animals is demonstrated by the fact that almost 25% of the named taxa are known only from their type localities.

“…Nevertheless, the record of Chirocephalus reiseri Marcus, 1913 seems dubious, since the known distribution of this species is confined thus far to two sites at high elevation in the Treskavica Mountains in Bosnia-Hercegovina (former Yugoslavia) (Petrov & Marinček, 1991;Brtek & Thiéry, 1995).…”

Our current knowledge on the Anostraca of Turkey is rather limited, due to a lack of both local specialists and field sampling campaigns. Based on the old data available, mainly published in Italian and German, as well as on the results of recent samplings, we have summarized the present situation in order to update the information available for this branchiopod order in the Turkish fauna. Our purpose is to stress the need for extensive exploration of the territory, and to underline the importance of a proper conservation policy for temporary habitats, which are often overlooked, and hence particularly endangered, both as a result of human negligence, and due the their inherent ephemeral nature. RIASSUNTOAttualmente le conoscenze sulla fauna ad anostraci della Turchia sono alquanto scarse a causa sia della mancanza di specialisti locali, che di campagne di raccolta adeguate. Analizzando dati di letteratura piuttosto datati ma poco diffusi (prevalentemente in italiano ed in tedesco), nonchè informazioni relative a raccolte recenti, abbiamo sintetizzato la situazione e presentiamo in questa nota il quadro attuale delle conoscenze circa questo gruppo di Branchiopodi. Oltre ad evidenziare la necessità di indagini ad ampio raggio, desideriamo sottolineare la necessità di valutare lo status delle specie presenti e l'importanza di una corretta politica di conservazione degli ambienti temporanei, che proprio in quanto tali, sono i più minacciati dalle attività umane.

“…In the last decade of 20th Century, the Former Yugoslavia investigators Petrov and Marinček [66] reported the occurrence of populations of Branchipus stagnalis (L. 1758) (synonym of Branchipus schaefferi Fischer, 1834, according to Rogers [61]) near the villages Batković and Crneljevo Donje, and Branchipus sp. near Brodac.…”

Ramsar site "Bardača Wetland" has been on the list of wetlands of international importance since 2007. It is situated in the northern part of Bosnia and Herzegovina, at the territory of Republic of Srpska. This site has a wide range of water bodies with various hydrological regimes that support a diverse locally adapted flora and fauna. The investigations of the large branchiopods have been carried out since 2016. The existence of this evolutionary very old group of crustaceans has previously not been known for this territory. Overall, seven taxa of large branchiopods have been recorded in temporary aquatic habitats. The notostracan Lepidurus apus and spinicaudatan Leptestheria dachalacensis were rediscovered, while the Cyzicus sp., Eoleptestheria ticinensis and Limnadia lenticularis were recorded for the first time in the territory of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Linderiella sp. and Eubranchipus (Siphonophanes) grubii have been recorded for the first time both in the Bosnia and Herzegovina and in the territory of Western Balkans. In recent years, significant part of "Bardača Wetland" suitable for development of large branchiopods was under drainage regime and has been used as arable land. Populations of the large branchiopods are potentially extremely vulnerable due to the landscape fragmentation, pollution and the global climate change. Consequently, conservation measures are needed to ensure their continuous and sustainable existence.
