| Permanent unvegetated salt pans with hypersaline soils are typical of upper marsh habitats. |
| Thus Triassic stratigraphy is mostly based on organisms that lived in lagoons and hypersaline environments, such as Estheria crustaceans. |
| The cladocerans are excellent osmoregulators, occurring in freshwater to hypersaline environments. |
| They are found in a wide range of habitats, ranging from seagrass meadows in hypersaline lagoons to brackish pools highly influenced by freshwater runoff or rainfall. |
| Encystment is an outstanding feature of the complex life cycle of this crustacean adapted to life in marine salterns and inland hypersaline lakes all over the world. |
| The occurrence of authigenic zeolites suggests deposition in hypersaline lacustrine waters in closed basins. |
