The Abrau sprat (tyulka or sardelka) Clupeonella abrau (Maliatsky, 1930) is an endemic fish of the Lake Abrau (Krasnodar Krai, Russia). The full C. abrau mitochondrial genome (16 650 bp) showed a gene arrangement conserved in Clupeidae and 98.

However, one species, , stands out for its exceptional multicontinental range and broad ecological requirements. Here we use an integrated morphological and multilocus genetic approach to address the species problem in .

- Representatives of the Sars genus are tiny water fleas found in acidic and mountain waters, but their diversity is not well understood.
- Morphological and genetic studies have been challenging due to their small size, leading to fewer taxonomic revisions.
- Our genetic analysis identified at least twelve distinct lineages in the Northern Hemisphere, suggesting much greater species diversity than previously recognized, with nine major clades having various distribution patterns.
Our analysis of Alona cf. affinis (Cladocera: Chydoridae) populations from European Russia, Siberia and Far East of Russia bearing denticles at the posteroventral corner, based on both their morphology and genetic study considering variability of mitochondrial COI and 16S and nuclear 18S genes, revealed that they belong to a separate taxon described here as Alona sibirica sp. nov.

This taxon was never detected in continental Australia before. Its identity was confirmed by the sequences of mitochondrial COI, 12S and 16S and nuclear 18S and 28S genes.
