Sea Monkey® (sometimes hyphenated) is a marketing term for a variety of brine shrimp (Artemia salina), a branchiopod sold as a novelty gift.

They were first marketed in 1957 by Harold von Braunhut.

This particular species has been cited in studies of DNA and sexual behavior, primarily because they are commonly available specimens.
