Branchiopod
Branchiopoda, from Ancient Greek βράγχια (''bránkhia''), meaning "gill", and πούς (''poús''), meaning "foot", is a class of crustaceans. It comprises fairy shrimp, clam shrimp, Diplostraca (or Cladocera), Notostraca, the Devonian ''Lepidocaris'' and possibly the Cambrian '' Rehbachiella''. They are mostly small, freshwater animals that feed on plankton and detritus. Description Members of the Branchiopoda are unified by the presence of gills on many of the animals' appendages, including some of the mouthparts. This is also responsible for the name of the group (from the , gills, akin to , windpipe; , foot). They generally possess compound eyes and a carapace, which may be a shell of two valves enclosing the trunk (as in most Cladocera), broad and shallow (as in the Notostraca), or entirely absent (as in the Anostraca). In the groups where the carapace prevents the use of the trunk limbs for swimming (Cladocera and clam shrimp), the antennae are used for locomoti ...

Eulimnadia Texana
''Eulimnadia texana'', the Texas clam shrimp or desert shrimp, is a species belonging to the Limnadiidae family. It is endemic to North America. It is an arid land specialist, living for many years as a cyst and bursting into life at the arrival of rains, maturing rapidly in temporary pools and producing eggs that can remain dormant until the next rains occur, perhaps in many years time. Description Desert shrimps are sexually dimorphic. The males have their front two pairs of thoracic appendages modified into claws while the hermaphrodites have unmodified legs. Distribution and habitat Desert shrimps live in ditches, ponds, pools, and other ephemeral freshwater habitats in northern Mexico and parts of the southern and southwestern United States, west of the Mississippi River. Biology Individual shrimps are either male or hermaphrodite. The hermaphrodites can fertilize their own eggs or can mate with males but are unable to mate with other hermaphrodites. This arrangement is ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Limnadiidae
Limnadiidae is a family of crustaceans in the order Spinicaudata that live in seasonal wetlands, inland saline pools and lakes. They are found on all the world's continents except Antarctica Antarctica () is Earth's southernmost and least-populated continent. Situated almost entirely south of the Antarctic Circle and surrounded by the Southern Ocean (also known as the Antarctic Ocean), it contains the geographic South Pole. ..., and are distinguished from other families in the same order by the fact that the cephalic fornicies do not extend forwards. The family contains eight extant genera: *'' Afrolimnadia'' Rogers ''et al.'', 2012 *'' Calalimnadia'' Rabet & Rogers, 2012 *'' Eulimnadia'' Packard, 1874 *'' Imnadia'' Hertzog, 1935 *'' Limnadia'' Brongniart, 1820 *'' Limnadopsis'' Spencer & Hall, 1896 *'' Metalimnadia'' Mattox, 1952 *'' Paralimnadia'' Sars, 1896 References Spinicaudata Crustacean families {{branchiopoda-stub ...
