Crustacea: Branchiopoda
This chapter describes the taxonomy of Branchiopoda. Branchiopoda are small crustaceans commonly known as cladocerans or water-fleas. They are epiplanktonic zooplankton seasonally abundant mainly in coastal waters and over the continental shelf of warm temperate and tropical areas, with a few specie...
