Аннотация:Clam shrimps in the genus Eulimnadia (Branchiopoda: Spinicaudata) cover their eggs with tertiary envelopes that on close examination exhibit species-specific morphologies. Most of the other characters used by previous students of this group are misleadingly variable. I review the 12 species described from North America. Egg morphology suggests that only 5 of these are valid. To these 5, I add 2 new species clearly recognizable by egg morphology.
