I found this Limnias sp. in my micro-aquarium with the help of Dr. McFarland. This organism can be identified through the Fresh-water Invertebrates of the U.S. by Robert W. Pennak on pg. 218 fig. 42- H and J.
This Cladophora was showed to me by Dr. McFarland while I was searching for organisms near the plants that were placed in the aquarium. This can also be identified in the Handbook of Algae by Herman Silva Forest in fig. 207.
