• D.M. Fields, M.H. Doall, and R. Foster for work on the capture sequence images.
• Stephanie Wilson for reviewing our animations.
• Annie Townsend, Curator of the SIO Planktonic Invertebrates Collection for helping us examine preserved specimens, for reviewing our models for correctness, and for providing us with many useful references.
• Alex De Robertis for help with copepod biology and for general advice and moral support.
