Abstract
A new species of rotifer, Cephalodella segersi n.sp., is described from littoral periphyton of the man-made Lake Blankaart, Belgium. The species is closely related to C. catellina and C. fluviatilis. The subspecies C. catellina maior is given species rank. Redescriptions and scanning electron microscope pictures of trophi are given for C. catellina, C. fluviatilis and C. maior.
