Abstract
The morphological characteristics of a population of Triops granarius in a system of small pans were examined during inundations of one seas on. Considerable variation was found in a number of characteristics. D ifferences in gender other than those of the reproductive organs were also significant, but diagnostic characteristics remained stable.
