Ice-Associated Amphipods in a Pan-Arctic Scenario of Declining Sea Ice
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Sea-ice macrofauna includes ice amphipods and benthic amphipods, as well as mysids. Amphipods are important components of the sympagic food web, which is fuelled by the production of ice algae.

Caribbean Amphipoda (Crustacea) of Panama. Part V: parvorder Amphilochidira [PDF]
ZooKeysThe parvorder Amphilochidira includes 1,152 described species in 24 families. Amphilochidiran amphipods retain many plesiomorphic character states and are thought to represent the ancestral state of amphipods.

An Experimental Study to Assess the Ecotoxicity of Warfarin and Tinzaparin on Meiobenthic Amphipods: Original Taxonomic Data from Saudi Arabia and Computational Modeling [PDF]
ToxicsIn the current research, we examined the effects of warfarin (W1 = 5 mg/L and W2 = 25 mg/L) and tinzaparin (T1 = 5 mg/L and T2 = 25 mg/L) on meiofauna using microcosms.

Microbial community structure and functional traits involved in the adaptation of culturable bacteria within the gut of amphipods from the deepest ocean [PDF]
Microbiology SpectrumThe Hadal Zone is acknowledged for its extreme environmental conditions, especially high hydrostatic pressures. The dominant scavengers in the Hadal Zone, Hadal amphipods, fulfill vital roles in the Hadal food web and ecological niches. However, research

The Effect of Environmental Dredging of Muck on an Assemblage of Benthic Amphipods
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 To yield environmental benefits, fine sediments with ~10% organic matter, termed muck, were dredged from a tributary to the Indian River Lagoon. Key changes were documented by sampling amphipods, sediments, and the water column near the bottom before ...

Comparably Characterizing the Gut Microbial Communities of Amphipods from Littoral to Hadal Zones
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 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
