This study examines the DNA barcoding of rotifers from the Cochin backwaters, Kerala, India, with specimens obtained from the pure culture, using primers LCO1490/ HCO2198 and a recently reported primer 30F/885R which was designed especially for the rotifers. Partial sequences of the mitochondrial COI gene from five species belonging to three genera (Brachionus, Keratella and Asplanchna) and two families (Brachionidae and Asplanchnidae) of the order Ploimida were generated. All the obtained nucleotide sequences were submitted to NCBI (accession numbers: OL477582–OL477584, OL477586 and OL757796).
