Keratella spp., Brachionidae, Lake PatzcuaroAbstract
Recientemente se registró en la zona del Embarcadero del Lago de Pátzcuaro, Michoacán, que algunos rotíferos del género Keratella presentaron alteraciones morfológicas. Se cuantificó que el 0.019% de la población de Keratella cochlearis y el 0.008% de K. americana presentaron alteraciones morfológicas en distintas espinas y ninguna presentó huevos. Estas anormalidades pudieran estar relacionadas con diferentes tipos de contaminantes en el Embarcadero, por lo que podrían ser consideradas como bioindicadores de toxicidad.
