Temporary ponds are the most peculiar and representative water bodies in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world, where they often represent diversity hotspots that greatly contribute to the regional biodiversity.

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

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

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

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

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

On the freshwater crustaceans of the Central Plateau [PDF]
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.
