Large branchiopods (Branchiopoda: Anostraca, Notostraca and Spinicaudata) from the salt lakes of Algeria

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2006
We conducted a survey of large branchiopods (Crustacea, Branchiopoda) of the major salt lakes of Algeria, particularly those of the eastern Hauts Plateaux.

Risk reduction strategies in Branchipus schaefferi (Crustacea: Anostraca: Branchiopoda) as adaptation to a variable environment [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Discriminating between the effects of founding events and reproductive mode on the genetic structure of Triops populations (Branchiopoda: Notostraca). [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Crustaceans that initially colonize a freshwater temporary pond can strongly bias the subsequent genetic composition of the population, causing nearby populations to be genetically distinct.

HotSHOT Extraction Is a Fast, Economical, and Efficient Method for Obtaining Tardigrade gDNA

open access: yesPsyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Among the main problems in obtaining genomic DNA (gDNA) from small invertebrates such as tardigrades are the low amount of gDNA obtained per specimen, as well as the complexity of steps and number of reagents used for gDNA extraction. For example, the extraction method with chelating resin is the most used as an alternative to commercial kits for ...

The end of the ‘living fossil’ tale? A new look at Triassic specimens assigned to the tadpole shrimp Triops cancriformis (Notostraca) and associated phyllopods from the Vosges region (eastern France)

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 5, September/October 2024.
Abstract Notostracan branchiopods reported from the Lower Triassic Voltzia Sandstone Lagerstätte in northeastern France have previously been assigned to Triops cancriformis, making this species the longest persisting animal in earth history. Careful restudy of the splendidly preserved material indicates that the species can be well characterized but ...

Modelling the distribution of large branchiopods (Crustacea: Notostraca, Anostraca & Spinicaudata) for predicting occurrences in poorly sampled regions

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Large branchiopods are one of the most iconic species groups in temporary pools. Due to their specific biology and massive habitat degradation, they are one of the most threatened freshwater species groups.

On the freshwater crustaceans of the Central Plateau [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
Although the waters of the Central Plateau harbour a number of interesting planktonic crustaceans, in these notes we are primarily concerned with the large macroscopic crustaceans.

Evolutionary relationships within Triops (Branchiopoda: Notostraca) using complete mitochondrial genomes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Crustacean Biology, 2014
The tadpole shrimp (Notostraca: Triops) have been called living fossils with conserved morphology, but subtle morphological variations within and between species has yielded confused taxonomic assignments. To aid in cryptic species detection of tadpole shrimp from southern New Mexico, USA, the first complete mitochondrial genomes for three putative ...

First record of the Tadpole Shrimp Triops cancriformis (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) in Cyprus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The presence of the large branchiopod Triops cancriformis (Bosc, 1801-1802) in Cyprus is reported for the first time. Triops cancriformis individuals were observed in the large temporary wetland of Paralimni Lake (Famagusta District, Cyprus) during the ...

Current knowledge of the South East Asian large branchiopod Crustacea (Anostraca, Notostraca, Laevicaudata, Spinicaudata, Cyclestherida)

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2013
The large branchiopod crustaceans (fairy shrimp, tadpole shrimp and clam shrimp) of South East (SE) Asia have only recently been examined with scientific vigor. Although more than 70 species have been reported for Asia and Indonesia, only six native taxa
