Hello,
I have come across this forum in my search for Daphnia similis from different region. I work on
"classical" and molecular taxonomy of this species complex (there are several "good" species involved - see the link to the abstract conference below - and lots of misidentification!).
I understand it is used for toxicology assays. If anyone of you has Daphnia similis culture with known origin, I would be very grateful for getting the samples for comparison - I can at least check what you really use for the assays.
Please, if you have a Daphnia simlis culture, contact me by the e-mail.
Thank you for your help
