Abstract
Cyclestheria hislopi was first described as Estheria hislopi by Baird (1859), from Nagpur, India and has since been found circumtropically. There are only two records for Australia (Saars, 1887; Timms, 1979) suggesting a limited distribution there, but this conchostracan occurred commonly in collections made recently in tropical Australia to study cladocerans. The purpose of this note is to report on the taxonomic characteristics of these specimens and to document the distribution and habitat preferences of C. hislopi in Australia.
