Abstract

The rotifer fauna of 77 freshwater habitats in Nakhon Ratchasima province, northeast Thailand, was studied. Lecane baimaii n.sp. is described and figured. The new species occurs in Thailand as well as Nigeria. Eleven species (Lecane decipiens (Murray), Lecane serrata (Hauer), Lecane thienemanni (Hauer), Lecane donneri Chengalath & Mulamoottil, Lecane grandis (Murray), Lecane punctata (Murray), Lepadella akrobeles Myers, Lepadella elongata Koste, Scaridium elegans Segers & De Meester, Trichocerca porcellus (Gosse) and Wolga spinifera Western) are new to Thailand. Comments and figures are presented on the new records for Thailand.
