Remarks: Taxa identified as Macrobiotus hufelandi sensu lato have a cosmopolitan distribution (McInnes 1994a). However, this is the nominal species for the hufelandi group and the group requires careful taxonomic analysis, including egg morphology, in order to properly differentiate the individual species (see Bertolani & Rebecchi 1993 for the review and for e.g. Pilato et al. 2003b, Kaczmarek & Michalczyk 2004, Fontoura et al. 2008, Bartels et al. 2009, Kaczmarek & Michalczyk 2009b, Guidetti et al. 2013 for new species within the group). We think the reports citing the presence of Macrobiotus hufelandi sensu stricto in South America, particularly the older reports, need to be confirmed.
