Limnesia (Limnesia) patagonica Lundblad, 1941: 157, 1944: 148 ; Cook 1980: 93, 1988: 64; Rosso de Ferradás et al 1987: 117.

Remarks

Besch (1963a) synonymized Limnesia patagonica with L. minuscula minuscula Ribaga , but this was not followed by Cook (1980, 1988). The specimens from this study have separated first coxal plates, and their IV­leg­6 have six swimming setae. Therefore it is assigned to L. patagonica . Subspecies of L. minuscula with swimming setae on IV­leg­6 have fused first coxal plates. The specimens collected by Cook (1980) have 2­4 swimming setae on IV­leg­6.
