Potamothrix Vejdovsky et Mrazek, 1902 (Oligochaeta, Tubifïcidae): un genre d'Oligochète dulçaquicole nouveau pour la faune belge.
BELGIAN JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY, 121(2):315-320.
Potamothrix bavaricus, P. hammoniensis et P. moldaviensis, three species of freshwater Oligochaetes, are recorded for the first time from Belgium, this in spite of their holartic distribution. The present discovery is an indication of the poor knowledge of this group in Belgium. Others species of this genus are likely to be found in the future. Identification criteria, based on the spermathecal setae, are proposed.
