 Odd Pods, Tanaids in Reef Aquaria by Ronald L. Shimek, Ph.D. - Reefkeeping.com
Many Peracarida have a carapace, but it is small and may be hard to see, particularly on a smaller animal.
A carapace is a fusion and extension of the exoskeleton of the head area and the first one or two thoracic segments to form a "shield like" plate that surrounds and covers the top and sides of the body.
The Peracarida may be thought of as being composed of several distinct, probably closely related, groups of similar species.

Peracarida is a large and ecologically important superorder of malacostracan crustaceans.
Peracarida is characterized by the presence, in breeding females, of a marsupium, or brood pouch, on the ventral pereon.
This pouch is formed of thin, membranous brood plates, or oöstegites, extending medially from the basis of some of the pereopods.

All Peracarida are distinguished by the presence of a marsupium- a brood chamber beneath the thorax, where the eggs are deposited, fertilised and brooded.
Many Peracarida are cosmopolitans and perform a multitude of feeding mechanisms, strategies and lifestyles.
The aim of our project was to investigate the diversity of Peracarida and Polychaeta in the Mellemfjord area.

 Thetispelecaris remex
They were collected from the ceiling, walls, silt ledges, and sandy floor of both inland anchialine caves and ocean blue holes.
Evolutionary Origins: The presence of the epipodites in females, which may play the role of oostegites, indicate that this may be the most primitive order of Peracarida, bordering the superorder Syncarida.
It is questionable that Bochusacea are actually Peracarida (Sanders, Hessler and Garner, 1985:55; Gutu and Iliffe, 1998:98; Gutu, 1998:121; Hessler, 1999:90).

We collected and sequenced 60 species within the Malacostraca representing 29 families, with heavy taxon sampling in the Peracarida.
Alignments were done with ClustalX and POY, and tree building was done using both parsimony and likelihood as the optimality criterion.
Among some of our preliminary results are the placement of mysids as a basal group outside of the Peracarida, a sister group relationship between the Amphipoda and Isopoda, and a clarification of the relationships within the Amphipoda.

 ICC6 Symposium 1
No consensus has been reached on the number of classes within the Crustacea and the relationships between them.
A similar temporary impasse applies to important issues addressing the monophyly of the Peracarida, the phylogeny of the Branchiopoda and the position of the Hoplocarida, Mystacocarida and Copepoda.
Finally, accruing evidence from molecular and developmental genetic sources of data appears to favour a closer affinity between Hexapoda and Crustacea, reviving the Pancrustacea hypothesis first proposed at the turn of the 20
