Risk reduction strategies in Branchipus schaefferi (Crustacea: Anostraca: Branchiopoda) as adaptation to a variable environment [PDF]
, 2017 Mud from a temporary pool in Morocco was sequentially inundated and dried at the laboratory to follow the life history of Branchipus schaefferi. Once adult, each female was coupled to a male in order to study their life history and reproduction.

SEM morphological analysis of fertilized cysts in the genus Branchipus (Branchiopoda, Anostraca): Can cyst morphology be used as a reliable taxonomic criterion? [PDF]
Archives of Biological Sciences, 2009 In order to illuminate taxonomic significance of cyst variability (as a part of total morphological variability) in the genus Branchipus, cysts (fertilized eggs) originating from southern parts of the Pannonian Plain are described on the basis of ...

Molecular phylogenetic analyses support the monophyly of Hexapoda and suggest the paraphyly of Entognatha [PDF]
, 2013 BackgroundMolecular phylogenetic analyses have revealed that Hexapoda and Crustacea form a common clade (the Pancrustacea), which is now widely accepted among zoologists; however, the origin of Hexapoda remains unresolved.
