The aim is to provide a comprehensive dataset on the diversity and distribution of large branchiopods in India to aid conservation efforts.
Compiled species occurrence records from field collections (2020-2024) and historical literature (1859-2024)
Included 581 records from 46 species across five orders
Provided geographic information system (GIS) data and habitat type for each record
Developed the Rshiny application to visualize spatial distribution and frequency of species
Identified 46 species from 13 families and 15 genera, with four new records added to the Indian checklist
Provided detailed geo-referenced data to support future research and conservation
Introduced a new species, Streptocephalus warliae, from the field samples
Highlighted the importance of data in understanding large branchiopod biodiversity in temporary aquatic habitats
