A new cladoceran of the faviformis-group of the genus Chydorus Leach, 1816 (Cladocera: Chydoridae), characterized by a honeycomb-like sculpture of valves and head shield, is described from tundra lakes and ponds in North-East Russia. Morphology of the new species was studied using optical and scanning electron microscopy. Chydorus izvekovae sp. nov. differs from all other species of the faviformis-group in a narrow labral keel with elongated apex, and in a greater number of meshes on the valves and head shield. Other species of the faviformis-group in the Western Hemisphere are distributed in the tropical-subtropical zone, they also inhabit mostly shallow waters with well-developed macrophyte zone.
描述了一种新的淡水枝角类 Faviformis 组 Chydorus Leach,1816 属(枝角目:盘肠科),其特征为瓣膜和头盾呈蜂窝状结构。该新种来自俄罗斯东北部的冻土地带湖泊和池塘。使用光学和扫描电子显微镜研究了新种的形态。Chydorus izvekovae sp. nov. 在狭窄的唇瓣龙骨上具有细长的顶点,以及在瓣膜和头盾上具有更多的网格,与 Faviformis 组的所有其他物种不同。西半球的其他 Faviformis 组物种分布在热带-亚热带地区,它们也主要栖息在有发达的大型植物区系的浅水区。
