Notodiaptomus is a genus of copepods in the family Diaptomidae. It is the most widely distributed, most abundant and most species-rich genus of freshwater calanoid copepods in the Neotropics. The genus was erected in 1936 by Friedrich Kiefer for eleven species formerly placed in a wider Diaptomus. Notodiaptomus deitersi was chosen to be the type species by Raúl Adolfo Ringuelet in 1958.
Glossiphoniidae are a family of freshwater proboscis-bearing leeches. These leeches are generally flattened, and have a poorly defined anterior sucker. Most suck the blood of freshwater vertebrates like amphibians, crocodilians and aquatic turtles, but some feed on invertebrates like oligochaetes and freshwater snails instead. Although they prefer other hosts, blood-feeding species will opportunistically feed from humans.

La Brava is a lake in the eastearn part of the Balcarce Partido in Buenos Aires Province, Argentina. It lies just on the border with General Pueyrredón, 40 kilometres (25 mi) northwest of the city of Mar del Plata and 25 kilometres (16 mi) east of the town of Balcarce. Located within Mount La Brava, the lake area is privately owned, although open to the public for fishing and camping. There are several campsites around the lake, like Ruca Lauquen on the east coast and the Fishing Club Balcarce on the north, both of them with recreational facilities and boat piers. The lake is described as a rift lake or tectonic lake, probably a natural reservoir formed by dunes. La Brava is the habitat of a number of bird species, like swans, ducks, coots, herons and gulls. Capybaras and otters dwell in its shores. The lake also support a fish community dominated by the silverside and the dentudo. The landscape has been compared with that of the lakes of western Patagonia.
