Never thought I’d have a favorite copepod… but behold Sapphirina! These little copepods are so iridescent they appear bioluminescent! When diving for plankton in the Gulf of California on this expedition, we see them as tiny specks of bright blue light. #zooplankton #oceanography #christmasatsea 🌊

Verrückter Fakt des Tages: #vfdt
Welches Tier hat die größte Sprungkraft? Bezogen auf die Körpergröße ist es der Ruderfußkrebs (Copepod). Das millimeterkleine Plankton-Tierchen kann innerhalb von Millisekunden eine Geschwindigkeit von 100en Körperlängen pro Sekunde erreichen. So entkommt es Räubern.

I’m loving this fluorescence view of a decomposing copepod covered in algae, captured at a workshop at MIT museum. Any other copepod lovers out there? #SciArt #microscopy #copepod

Excited to share our new paper on Kroyeria—a group of parasitic copepods found on sharks. Best part of the project was working with Greg Deets, who imo is the GOAT when it comes to copepod illustrations. We describe 5 new species & redescribe most others 🧪🦐
