Hyperia Galba
''Hyperia galba'' is a species of zooplankton, an amphipod in the family Hyperiidae. Description This species grows to 1.2 cm and has a rotund body shape which is translucent and has a light brown colour. One of the most prominent features of this species is the very large, green eyes. These occupy the entire sides of the head, which is short and rounded. Both the head and thorax are more plump than the abdomen, especially in females. The gnathopods are simple. It has filiform antennae which are very short in females and long in males. It has a laterally and dorsally rounded pereion which is deep and slightly laterally compressed. Distribution ''Hyperia galba'' is very widespread in the North Sea. Habitat This species lives among jellyfish including those in the genera ''Rhizostoma'' and ''Aurelia'', as well as others within the class scyphozoa The Scyphozoa are an exclusively marine class of the phylum Cnidaria, referred to as the true jellyfish (or "true jellies").

Hyperiidea
The Hyperiidea are a suborder of amphipods, small aquatic crustaceans. Unlike the other suborders of Amphipoda, hyperiids are exclusively marine and do not occur in fresh water. Hyperiids are distinguished by their large eyes and planktonic habitat. Most species of hyperiids are parasites or predators of salps and jellyfish in the plankton, although ''Themisto gaudichaudii'' and a few relatives are free-swimming predators of copepods and other small planktonic animals. Gallery Taxonomy According to Vinogradov ''et al.'' in 1996, 233 species of Hyperiidea are known. Some controversy exists as to the number of families in the Hyperiidea, being given as between 20 and 23 depending on whether groups like the Thaumatopsidae are considered distinct or not. The taxonomy of Hyperiidea currently accepted by the ''World Register of Marine Species'' is as follows: ;Infraorder Physocephalata Bowman & Gruner, 1973 * Parvorder Physocephalatidira Bowman & Gruner, 1973 ** Superfamily Phron ...

Hyperia Macrocephala
''Hyperia macrocephala'' is a species of zooplankton, an amphipod in the family Hyperiidae The Hyperiidae are a family of amphipods, containing these genera: *'' Euthemisto'' Bovallius, 1887 *'' Hyperia'' Latreille ''in'' Desmarest, 1823 *'' Hyperiella'' Bovallius, 1887 *'' Hyperoche'' Bovallius, 1887 *'' Laxohyperia'' M. Vinogradov & .... Etymology The name ''Hyperia macrocephala'' comes from the Latin "large head". Description This species can grow to 29 mm. The head of ''Hyperia macrocephala'' is shorter than the combined length of the first two pereonites. Specimens that are large and mature have CX IV that are pointed and laterally projecting. The P III-IV have many short, non-uniform setae on ART 5 and 6. The P V-VII are naked, and have a short cluster of setae apparently on only on the anterodistal margins of ART 2 of P V and VII. There are sharply pointed posterodistal corners on the epimeral plates. There is a strongly convex shape to the posterior margin of th ...

Anselme Gaëtan Desmarest
Anselme Gaëtan Desmarest (6 March 1784 – 4 June 1838) was a French Zoology, zoologist and author. He was the son of Nicolas Desmarest and father of Eugène Anselme Sébastien Léon Desmarest. Desmarest was a disciple of Georges Cuvier and Alexandre Brongniart, and in 1815, he succeeded Pierre André Latreille to the professorship of zoology at the '. He was elected to the American Philosophical Society in 1819 and to the Académie Nationale de Médecine in 1820. Desmarest published ' (1805), ' (1825), ' (1820) and ' (1816–30, with André Marie Constant Duméril). The brown algae ''Desmarestia'' is named in honour of Desmarest, as well as the family (Desmarestiaceae) — and in turn, the order (Desmarestiales) — of which the genus is the type species#In botany, type species.
