We also recorded several species (or genera) common to tropical inland waters such as Brachionus spp., K.tropica, T.decipiens, B.longirostris, c.cornuta, Moina, and D.brachyurum associated with oligotrophic and (hyper)eutrophic environments. Chaoborid larvae also are very common in the tropical freshwater zooplankton (Infante 1988; Pinto-Coelho 1998).
