Resumen: Una publicacion reciente reporto al hilido endemico del Bosque Atlantico Trachycephalus mesophaeus para la ecoregion Chaquena en Argentina. En este trabajo, analizamos el especimen de referencia y demostramos que se trata de un ejemplar incorrectamente determinado del microhilido asiatico Kaloula pulchra , una especie comercializada a nivel mundial. De esta forma, no existe evidencia para considerar que T. mesophaeus esta presente en Argentina. Abstract: A recent publication reported the Atlantic Forest endemic hylid Trachycephalus mesophaeus for the Chacoan ecoregion in Argentina. In this paper, we analyzed the voucher specimen and showed that it is a misidentified specimen of the Asiatic microhylid Kaloula pulchra , a species commonly commercialized in the pet trade worldwide. Therefore, there is no evidence for the occurrence of T. mesophaeus in Argentina.

Shallow lakes are common in the center of Argentina. Although many characteristics of its biota are known, information on the distribution and ecology of ostracods is scarce despite their importance as biological indicators and in actuopaleontology. The objective of this study was to determine the taxonomic composition, the density of ostracods, and their relationships with environmental parameters in lakes in the northeast of La Pampa. Five aquatic ecosystems were studied from September 2016 to March 2017. Samples of superficial sediments were collected, and conductivity, temperature, and transparency were measured in situ. Water samples were collected to determine salinity, pH, and ionic composition. The lakes differed in salinity, ionic composition, and transparency. Ten taxa were registered, some previously found in the province of Buenos Aires (Heterocypris similis, Heterocypris incongruens, Cypridopsis vidua, and Chlamydotheca incisa), the Llancanelo basin (H. incongruens and C. vidua), and North Patagonia lakes (C. incisa, C. vidua, Potamocypris unicaudata, H. incongruens, and Amphicypris argentiniensis). The influence of salinity was verified because some species (A. argentinensis, Limnocythere rionegroensis, and Limnocythere titicaca) were found only in the most saline lake. The existence in La Pampa of three different ecoregions (Pampean Plains, Espinal, and Patagonian Steppe) and the presence of ostracods in the studied lakes of northwestern Argentina (L. titicaca), the Buenos Aires province plain (H. similis, H. incongruens), and Patagonia (L. rionegroensis) allowed for affirming that the lakes of La Pampa are in a transition zone among different ostracods faunas.

The genus Notoschoenomyza Malloch is a small group of predaceous muscids endemic to South America. Currently, the genus includes eight species, of which only N. immaculate (Walker) and N. costata Snyder are listed for Argentina. This study presents a redescription of N. sulfuriceps Malloch based on male and female specimens, with detailed images of the terminalia, and includes notes on its habitat, new distributional records, and a key to the species recorded from Argentina.
