Description
Light micrograph of a pair of water fleas, Daphnia pulex, small fresh water crustaceans often used in aquariums as live fish food. The branched "rowing legs", seen at the top of the body, near the eye, are called biramous appendages and produce a jerky, hopping movement through the water. Magnification x6 at 35mm size.
