Phyllopoda \Phyl*lop"o*da\ (f[i^]l*l[o^]p"[-o]*d[.a]), prop. n.
   pl. [NL., fr. Gr. fy`llon a leaf + -poda.] (Zool.)
   An order of Entomostraca including a large number of species,
   most of which live in fresh water. They have flattened or
   leaflike legs, often very numerous, which they use in
   swimming. Called also Branchiopoda.
   [1913 Webster]

   Note: In some, the body is covered with a bivalve shell
         (Holostraca); in others, as Apus, by a shield-shaped
         carapace (Monostraca); in others, like Artemia, there
         is no carapace, and the body is regularly segmented.
         Sometimes the group is made to include also the
         Cladocera.
