In this note recent records of some Anostraca species in Italy are presented. These data widen the known distribution in Italy of Branchipus schaefferi Fischer, 1834, Tanymastix stagnalis Linnaeus, 1758, Chirocephalus ruffoi Cottarelli & Mura, 1984 and Branchinella spinosa Milne-Edwards, 1840, and illustrate the problem of inadequate knowledge of our territory, at least as far as Anostraca (Branchiopoda) are concerned.
