Abstract
Eucyclops dumonti sp.nov. is described from a shallow spring-fed lake in Central Mongolia. Data on its morphological variability are given, a comparison with the type population of Eucyclops serrulatus (Fischer, 1853) from St. Petersburg area is made, and its position relative to some closely related congeners is discussed.
