Arctic tadpole shrimp Lepidurus arcticus [2] is a species of tadpole shrimp which inhabits ephemeral pools, ponds or permanent freshwater lakes of Finland, [3] [4] [5] Norway, Sweden, [6] Svalbard, [2] [7] Greenland, Iceland, Russia and the Kuril Islands. [8] [9]
Unlike other species of tadpole shrimp, Lepidurus arcticus is known to coexist with fish, such as Arctic char, [4] brown trout [6] and European whitefish. [5] Furthermore, they exist in water temperatures much colder (4–7 °C or 39–45 °F) than the other species of its order. [9] About 14 °C seems to be the upper thermal threshold for where in which waters it can live. [10] It is a common predator of Daphnia pulex. [11]
