According to an updated list of extant non-marine ostracods, there are 2,330 subjective species in 270 genera in the world, of which 333 species are known from the Neotropical region. However, the knowledge about the ostracod fauna in Argentina is scarce, fragmented and incomplete. Thus, the aim of this study was to present the first checklist of the recent non-marine ostracods from Argentina, including geographical distributions and ecological characteristics of the species. Thus far, 66 ostracod species in 33 genera and 7 families have been recorded in non-marine Argentinian environments. Of the total number of species, 29% can be considered endemic to the country. Most of the species were recorded in alkaline, freshwater to oligohaline cold waters and mainly in low to moderate altitude environments. Our results showed that most studies were mainly carried out in the Pampean and Patagonia region and, therefore, the diversity record of ostracods in Argentina is biased towards these regions.
根据现存的非海洋介形类动物的最新名录，全球有 270 属 2330 个主观物种，其中 333 个物种分布在新热带地区。然而，人们对阿根廷的介形类动物区系的了解甚少，而且是零散和不完整的。因此，本研究旨在提出阿根廷最近的非海洋介形类动物的第一个清单，包括物种的地理分布和生态特征。迄今为止，在阿根廷的非海洋环境中已经记录了 66 种介形类动物，分布在 33 属 7 科。在所有记录的物种中，有 29%的物种可以被认为是阿根廷特有的。大多数物种分布在碱性、淡水至寡盐水冷水中，主要存在于低海拔到中海拔的环境中。研究结果表明，大多数研究主要集中在潘帕斯和巴塔哥尼亚地区，因此，阿根廷介形类动物的多样性记录偏向于这些地区。
