Abstract
The crustaceans (Phylum Crustacea) exhibit a great diversity of structure, adaptation, and development. Freshwater and terrestrial species are common, but the majority of species are marine. Crustaceans occur in all marine habitats, from the supralittoral zone to the abyss; additionally, most holoplanktonic animals belong to the Crustacea, and the meroplankton largely consists of the larval stages of benthic Crustacea.
