Amphipods in estuaries: the sibling species low salinity switch hypothesis [PDF]
A novel low salinity switch hypothesis is proposed to account for the speciation of an obligate estuarine (oligohaline) amphipod, Orchestia aestuarensis, from a closely-related one, Orchestia mediterranea, found in both estuarine and marine conditions ...

First record of Apocorophium acutum (Chevreux, 1908) (Amphipoda, Corophiidae, Corophiinae) from Uruguay, with notes on the biology and distribution [PDF]
The amphipod Apocorophium acutum (Chevreux, 1908) has a worldwide distribution due to dispersion by ballast water and the hulls of ships. Here we provide a record of this species from Rocha department, Uruguay, which is the first record in the Atlantic ...

Eaten alive: cannibalism is enhanced by parasites [PDF]
Cannibalism is ubiquitous in nature and especially pervasive in consumers with stage-specific resource utilization in resource-limited environments. Cannibalism is thus influential in the structure and functioning of biological communities. Parasites are

Comparably Characterizing the Gut Microbial Communities of Amphipods from Littoral to Hadal Zones
Amphipods are an important group of invertebrates in marine ecosystems due to their high abundance and diversity. As an essential part of the marine food web, amphipods play a vital role in nutrient recycling and provide large amounts of detritus-derived
