=  **//Hypsibius dujardini// is a species named after a **  French biologist Félix Dujardin. This species is found in moss and fresh water habitats all around the world. This species ** of Tardigrada is currently being Sequenced!! As part of the Ecdysozoan Sequencing project, the project seeks to learn about the genetic make-up of the Ecdysozoa, which is a superphylum which includes the Tardigrada. With the sequences of H //ypsibius dujardini the project ultimatly hopes to recreate the ancestral genome of the superphylum. This species in particular has been picked due to it's speedy generation time (approximatly 2 weeks), and it's compact genome.// ** = = = =** //Kingdom-Animalia// ** = =** //Phylum-Tardigrada// ** = =** //Class-// **Eutardigrada = = **//Genus-// **Hypsibius = =**//Species-// **Dujardini = = = = = = = = = = = =  =
