Eulimnadia geayi
Eulimnadia geayi is a small freshwater crustacean in the family Limnadiidae, commonly known as clam shrimp. First described by Eugen von Daday in 1913, this species inhabits temporary aquatic habitats across Central and South America. Like other members of its genus, it produces drought-resistant eggs that survive in dry sediment until rainfall triggers hatching. The species plays a role in ephemeral pool food webs as both a detritivore and prey item.
