Species 3t. ¿C. muratensis Ryser, Scholl & WülkerA European specimen is in BOLD Bin: BOLD:AAJ4281Larva of the semireductus-type. Cytology: 4 chromosomes with the thummi arm combination: AB, CD, EF, G. Specific sequences of North American populations not described. Arm E should have a distinctive sequence, and there should be a nucleolus in arm C. murA: murE1: 1 - 3e, 4, 10b - 5, 11 - 10c, 3f, 12 - 13 murF: Found: Alberta - Amisk Lake. European specimens in deep sediments. Molecular Data: The mtCOI and CytB and the Gb2β sequences for a European specimen are in GenBank (and the COI sequence is also in BOLD) Identified by P. Michailova (Dinsmore & Prepas 1997, p. 2171). Kiknadze (pers. comm.) found none in a small sample she checked from Amisk Lake. Sæther (2012) lists this material as C. entis. If correctly identified, this means C. muratensis would be a Holarctic species. See also C. plumosus and C. balatonicus. [ Return to Index| Go to References ] |
