About this fly
Gammaridae is a large and highly diverse family of marine and freshwater crustaceans. It is classified under the order Amphipoda, which includes some of the most ecologically important benthic crustaceans known to man. Also known as scuds, sideswimmers, or gammarids, most of these creatures are very small, yet they play vital roles wherever they are found. They serve as decomposers and highly nutritious food sources for a wide range of freshwater species.
