Taxonomic / nomenclatural notes:
• not Trichocerca pusilla (Jennings) after Mohammadi & Reihan Reshteh (2015) [Ref.27196] [=Trichocerca sp. near ruttneri Donner?]
• Listed by Lauterborn (1898:175) [Ref.16429] as Mastigocerca pusilla n. sp., without a word of description. Jennings, from comparing a sketch sent to him by Lauterborn, concluded the animals were identical, and, by using Lauterborn's specific name described this species as 'Rattulus pusillus Lauterborn' from Lake Erie (USA) and England (Jennings (1903) [Ref.17303]). He thereby made R. pusillus nomenclaturally available and took authorship of the name, notwithstanding that he originally attributed it to Lauterborn (ICZN Art. 12.1.).

Ecology summary:
Euplanktonic in meso– and eutrophic freshwater lakes, ponds, and reservoirs, also in potamoplankton; occasionally in bog ponds and oligosaline waters; summer/fall species that prefers temperatures > 10°C, euryhaline, indicates meso- to eutrophic conditions (Jersabek & Bolortsetseg, 2010) [Ref.18457].
Food:
Pierces and sucks out the content of plankton algae, e.g. filamentous diatoms such as Aulacoseira (May et al. 2001) [Ref.15090].
