Eurycercus cf. nigracanthus from Churchil (Figs 6–8) Material examined. All from Manitoba, Canada: 8 parthenogenetic ♀♀ from Pond X, Churchill, coll. in 15.08.2006, AAK M-2773. 2 parthenogenetic ♀♀ from TP-1, tundra pond, Churchill, coll. in 0 8.2006, AAK M- 2772. 2 parthenogenetic ♀♀ from TP-3, tundra pond, Churchill, coll. in 0 8.2006, AAK M-2771. Comments. Using genetic barcoding, Jeffrey et al. (2011) detected two species of Eurycercus in Churchill vicinities: Eurycercus longirostris and E. cf. longirostris. Subsequent COI -based study (Bekker et al. 2012) revealed that the latter was identified wrongly and in reality belongs to an undescribed species of E. (Teretifrons), different from both E. glacialis and E. nigracanthus, and grouped with a good statistical support with the former against the latter. Dr M. Elías-Gutiérrez, one of authors of the paper recorded above (Jeffrey et al. 2011), kindly provided us with a material on the aforementioned wrongly identified taxon. But our morphologic study led to ... : Published as part of Bekker, Eugeniya I. & Kotov, Alexey A., 2016, A revision of the subgenus Eurycercus (Teretifrons) Frey, 1975 (Crustacea: Cladocera) in the Holarctic with description of a new species from Russian Arctic, pp. 351-376 in Zootaxa 4147 (4) on page 360, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4147.4.1, http://zenodo.org/record/267823 ...
