Summary

[edit]
Description
Eesti: Simocephalus sp. on 3–4 mm pikkused vesikirbud Vesikirbulistel on (nagu ka teistel vähkidel) peas kaks paari tundlaid. Neist esimesed on väikesed, teised aga suured ja kaheharulised, mis lükkavad vähi keha ujumisel edasi. Vees on vesikirbuliste liikumine neile ainulaadselt hüppeline, millest ka nimetus "vesikirp". Pea alumisel küljel paikneb suu, mida ümbritseb eest ülahuul, tagant alalõuad ja külgedelt ülalõuad. Antud isend on leitud linnatiigist Rakveres.
English: Simocephalus sp. are 3-4 mm in length, round animals that are covered in a bivalve carapace. The head, which contains a single compound eye, is not covered by this carapace but instead is surrounded by a hood. This specimen was found in a city pond in the city of Rakvere in Estonia
