Cyzicus mexicanus (Mexican Clam Shrimp) is a small crustacean with a bivalve carapace. It was previously known from freshwater vernal pools in 18 US states, 2 Canadian provinces, and numerous Mexican states prior to our 2010 discovery in Shelby County, AL. This new state record extends the range of the Mexican Clam Shrimp farther into the southeastern US than previously documented.
