Abstract: | The headshield of Monospilus dispar (Cladocera, Chydoridae, Aloninae) was characterized by the presence of a unique headpore. Scanning Electron Microscopy shows the occurrence of minute pores close to the main headpore. The intimate structure of the main headpore is formed by concentric lamellae. This new information leads to new considerations about phylogeny. |
