Thanks for posting. The seasonal ponds are the perfect place to find them since their life history exploits those conditions. The "living fossil" Triops that has become popular in science classes in recent years belongs to the same class (Branchiopoda – in reference to their gill-like eggs), but belongs to a different subclass. I'm not surprised at the discovery. They are easily overlooked cryptofauna, but they've had several hundred million years to diversify and radiate. The more such habitats are discovered, the more clam shrimps and related species we're going to find.
