The family Chydoridae embraces about 170 reliable species . These species were combined in genera according to the form of their shell, postabdomen, antennule, and antenna (see e .g . KURZ, 1875). These and other features allow to outline genera, but give no idea of the real phylogeny of this family

## Abstract Diversity of the carapace valve structure in the Anomopoda (Crustacea: Branchiopoda) is described. We found that transformations of shape, modifications of the surface and valve margins, and thickening or thinning of the valves, take place independently in different families, sometimes
## Abstract The present review seeks to demonstrate the presence of an inherent biological tendency for the modification of form in cladoceran setae. We present a comparative description of the setal equipment of the cladoceran antenna I, antenna II, maxilla I, maxilla II, each thoracic limb, the c
