Alteration of bioluminescence in Amphipholis squamata (Ophiuroidea: Echinodermata) by heavy metals contamination: a field study

open access: yesScience of The Total Environment, 2000
The ophiuroid Amphipholis squamata (Echinodermata) is a bioluminescent species whose light production varies with physico-chemical parameters of the medium. Individuals collected in the bay of Portman along a gradient of heavy metal contamination show different patterns of light production: the ones from the highest contaminated area showing a ...

Characterisation of artisanal mine waste on Buru Island, Indonesia and toxicity to the brittle star Amphipholis squamata

open access: yesChemosphere, 2017
Artisanal small-scale gold mining (ASGM) using mercury (Hg) amalgamation commenced on Buru Island, Indonesia, in 2012, but was halted in 2015 due to concerns of widespread Hg contamination. Much of the Hg used in the mining process is lost to trommel waste which is disposed of in settlement ponds that drain into adjacent waterways and into Kayeli Bay ...

The Effects of Pesticides on the Bioluminescent Brittle Star Amphipholis squamata: Implications for Future Regulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Pesticide use is increasing worldwide. Thousands of pounds of active ingredients are used annually in the United States alone. While the use of these pesticides is prolific, our knowledge of the impacts they have on non-target species, ecosystems, and even our own bodies is lacking.

Localization of S1- and S2-like immunoreactivity in the nervous system of the brittle star Amphipholis squamata (Delle Chiaje 1828). [PDF]

open access: yesProc Biol Sci, 1997
The recent isolation and characterization of the SALMFamide neuropeptides S1 (GFNSALMFamide) and S2 (SGPYSFNSGLTFamide) from the sea stars Asterias rubens aid Asterias forbesi have initiated numerous studies on their morphological localization and ...

Effects of Catecholamines and Purines on Luminescence in the Brittlestar Amphipholis Squamata (Echinodermata) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2000
ABSTRACT The effects of catecholamines (dopamine, adrenaline, noradrenaline and its derivatives), 5-hydroxytryptamine and purines (adenosine, ATP and their derivatives) on the acetylcholine-induced luminescence of isolated arms and dissociated photocytes of the luminescent ophiuroid Amphipholis squamata were tested.
