Different ways of moving of the phyllopod Triops cancriformis, in normal and slow-motion shots (24 p/s and 64 p/s). Swimming, walking, crawling, and digging in the mud are to be seen in various close-ups. The successive pattern of movement of the gills (of the front pair of legs), the movement of the eyes under the shell, and the mouth can be seen quite clearly.
