The freshwater Mysidacea of The Netherlands are presently composed of three species. The indigenous mysid, Neomysis integer (Leach, 1814) has recently been joined by two Pontocaspian species, Limnomysis benedeni Czerniavsky, 1882 and Hemimysis anomala G.O. Sars, 1907. All three species now coexist in the Dutch Rhine. The present paper deals with the first records of L. benedeni in The Netherlands with ecological notes on the three species.
