    This file was created by scanning the printed publication. Errors identified by the software have been corrected; however, some errors may remain. 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. The fairy shrimp Branchinectapaludosa have been deposited in the University of (Muller)is widely distributedin the circum- Colorado Museum (UCM 2192, 2193, polar tundra of the Holarctic region (Vek- 2194). The Snowy Range is an axial rem- hoff, 1990). In Europe, it occurs chiefly at nant which rises about 300 m above the latitudes above 60?N, but there are isolated surrounding Medicine Bow Mountains recordsfrom the High Tatra Mountains on (Houston and others, 1978). The ponds are the borderbetween Czechoslovakiaand Po- mainly in the upperTelephone Creek drain- land at about 49?N (Brtek, 1976). Records age at elevations of 3,200-3,350 m. Most for Russia are typically along the Arctic of the ponds are underlainby the Nash Fork margin, but include the southern tip of the formation (Houston and others, 1978), and Kamchatka Peninsula at 52?N (Linder, the characteristicmetadolomite is present 1932).
