Male, a very pale specimen from an extremely turbid lake. Length 13.8mm. Collected 12 May 2013. This was an unusual habitat for this species, which was found in company with Branchinecta readingi. The grasslands surrounding this lake were dotted with clear, temporary snowmelt ponds which hosted the more usual colour form of E. bundyi.
