👉 Lystride, also known as a lystrid, is a type of larva that feeds on aquatic plants and algae. It occurs in zooplankton and can be found both in freshwater and marine environments. Lystrides are typically sessile and feed on the surface of the water, where they burrow into the substrate. They use their sharp claws to grasp onto the substrate and eat the plankton or algae.
