Hello everyone,

is someone here able to identify this ostracod? Is there any helpful website or book known about Central European freshwater ostracods? I can't find anything.

Size about 2 mm.

Thanks in advance! Lennart

Süßwasserfauna von Mitteleuropa, Band 8/3: Freshwater Ostracoda of Western and Central Europe by Claude Meisch (2000). ISBN: 3827410010 - out of print and expensive, but you might be able to borrow a copy.
