Evidence for a species complex in Indialona ganapati (Chydoridae).

Indialona ganapati (Petkovski 1966 ), is one of the three known cladoceran endemic species from India. It is also the only one of these species that is monotypic and endemic to central India. In this study we report on habitat shifts for this species as well as presence of parthenogenetic and ephippial females throughout the year, phenomena that are uncommon in most species of the family Chydoridae.
