Abstract
Mesocyclops ogunnus (Cyclopoida) is reported from the Sidi Salem reservoir (Tunisia). This is the first record of Mesocyclops from Tunisia and the pre vious discovery of M. ogunnus in Algeria confirms the link between its dist ribution areas from the African continent (inter-tropical zone) to the Euro -asiatic zone (Israel, Uzbekistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Laos).
