JOURNAL OF CRUSTACEAN BIOLOGY, 13(1): 184-189, 1993 PERSISTENCE OF BRANCHINECTA PALUDOSA (ANOSTRACA) IN SOUTHERN WYOMING, WITH NOTES ON ZOOGEOGRAPHY James F. Saunders III, Denton Belk, and Richard Dufford ABSTRACT The fairy shrimp Branchinectapaludosa is a persistentresident of aestival ponds at high elevation in the Medicine Bow Mountains of southernWyoming. These populationsare far removed from the Arctic tundrahabitat that typifiesthe distributionof the species, and appear to representthe southern margin of the range in North America. All of the records for the northernUnited States and southernCanada appear to lie along the CentralFlyway that is a major migrationroute for waterfowland shorebirdsthat nest in the Arctic. Passive dispersal probablyprovides for frequentcolonization of marginalhabitats and gene flow to established populations.
