<p><em><strong>Daphnia</strong></em> are small, planktonic crustaceans, between 0.2 and 5&nbsp;mm in length. <em>Daphnia</em> are members of the order Cladocera, and are one of the several small aquatic crustaceans commonly called water fleas because of their saltatory swimming style (although fleas are insects and thus only very distantly related). They live in various aquatic environments ranging from acidic swamps to freshwater lakes, ponds, streams and rivers.</p>
