1. Many aquatic species usually considered to be ‘cosmopolitan’ have been identified as cryptic species complexes, based on deep genetic differentiation. However, reproductive isolation among sibling cryptic species has rarely been studied, and interspecific hybridisation is common in some taxa.2. We investigated isolation mechanisms and possible introgression among three cyclical parthenogenetic rotifer species in theEpiphanes sentacomplex that are found in very different freshwater habitats: temperate floodplains, subtropical desert rock pools and a tropical alpine lake. WhereasEpiphanes ukerais reproductively isolated fromE.chihuahuaensisandE.hawaiiensis, the latter hybridise under laboratory conditions.3. While reproductive isolation is incomplete, RAPD profiles indicated unique genetic signatures and showed no evidence for introgression, indicating that these three species are diverging and have independent evolutionary trajectories.4. Testing cues for sexual reproduction in these cyclic parthenogens demonstrated that mixis inE. chihuahuaensisandE. ukerais influenced by population density, whereasE. hawaiiensisfemales rarely produce mictic offspring regardless of density. Different mixis cues are likely to separate sexual periods and effectively cause reproductive isolation between the species.Epiphanes ukeraandE.chihuahuaensismales display mate‐guarding behaviour, andE.ukeramales distinguish between conspecific and heterospecific females in mate‐choice experiments. Geographic isolation, along with different cues for mixis induction and mate recognition, acts as reproductive barrier among these sibling species.
