Inventory of fauna transported by floating meadows in the river system of the Río de La Plata basin

Floating meadows known as "camalotales" are important way of biogeographical dispersal at the Río de la Plata basin. However, the fauna transported in these rafts is a scarce studied topic. This work presents a survey of this fauna, for which different localities of its coast were visited...
