Dear folks
Would anyone know what "Daphnées" means?
The context is ecological information on a chemical product:
Ecotoxicité:
Poisson: CL 50(96h) supérieure à 100 mg/l
Daphnées: CE50(48h): supérieure à 100 mg/l
Many thanks in advance for any suggestions!

: Guess why the name "Daphne" went out of fashion (girls kept getting thrown into aquaria)./Not in English, certainly. At (a muscular) 107kg I'm mon petit poussin to my chère et tendre and no one finds it the least bit funny!

Yeah, and you can't really say "Come here, my little water flea" and sustain the mood.
