A genus of brine shrimp found in salt lakes and salt ponds that can survive extreme conditions.
From Greek 'eu-' (true) + 'brankhia' (gills) + 'pous' (foot); named for their gill-bearing feet.
Eubranchipus shrimp can survive being frozen solid, dried out completely, or exposed to radiation levels that would kill most animals—they're nature's ultimate survivors!
