✦ Synopsis


The rotifer fauna of 100 fresh and saline wetlands of southwest Western Australia is documented . A systematic list of 83 recorded taxa is given, with eleven new records for the continent and two new species (Brachionus pinneenaus n . sp . and Lecane boorali n . sp .) described and figured . Species assemblages are distinct from those of eastern Australia, with predominant taxa halophilous or indicative of ephemeral waters . Evolutionary and biogeographical relationships of the Western Australian rotifers are considered .

Forms showing this type of suture line have since been found and the genus __Epicanites__ was erected by Schindewolf
