These Boots Are Made for Walking: Sex-Specific Physiological and Metabolomic Strategies Reflect Male-Skewed Vulnerability to Ocean Warming in a Keystone Amphipod. [PDF]

Glob Chang Biol
Sex‐specific responses to ocean warming shape thermal tolerance, fitness, and metabolomic profiles in a keystone amphipod. Females exhibit higher thermal limits and broader safety margins than males. Warming reduces survival and reproductive output, while it increases offspring size.

Close encounters - microplastic availability to pelagic amphipods in sub-antarctic and antarctic surface waters.

Environment International, 2020
This study investigated the distribution of plastic debris from the Atlantic portion of the Sub-Antarctic to the Antarctic Peninsula. This region is home to some of the highest concentrations of zooplankton biomass but is also threatened by increasing ...

How did subterranean amphipods cross the Adriatic Sea? Phylogenetic evidence for dispersal–vicariance interplay mediated by marine regression–transgression cycles

Journal of Biogeography, 2020
Freshwater subterranean amphipods with low dispersal abilities are known from both sides of the impermeable barrier, the Adriatic Sea. We tested the hypothesis that historical marine regression–transgression cycles shaped the distribution patterns of ...

Microplastics and synthetic particles ingested by deep-sea amphipods in six of the deepest marine ecosystems on Earth

Royal Society Open Science, 2019
While there is now an established recognition of microplastic pollution in the oceans, and the detrimental effects this may have on marine animals, the ocean depth at which such contamination is ingested by organisms has still not been established. Here,

The late blooming amphipods: global change promoted post-Jurassic ecological radiation despite Palaeozoic origin

bioRxiv, 2019
The ecological radiation of amphipods is striking among crustaceans. Despite high diversity, global distribution and key roles in all aquatic environments, little is known about their ecological transitions, evolutionary timescale and phylogenetic ...

Pronounced and prevalent intersexuality does not impede the ‘Demon Shrimp’ invasion [PDF]

, 2015
Crustacean intersexuality is widespread and often linked to infection by sex-distorting parasites. However, unlike vertebrate intersexuality, its association with sexual dysfunction is unclear and remains a matter of debate.

Are Amphipod invaders a threat to the regional biodiversity? Conservation prospects for the Loire River [PDF]

, 2010
The impact of invasions on local biodiversity is well established, but their impact on regional biodiversity has so far been only sketchily documented.

The importance of naming cryptic species and the conservation of endemic subterranean amphipods

Scientific Reports, 2017
Molecular taxonomy often uncovers cryptic species, reminding us that taxonomic incompleteness is even more severe than previous thought. The importance of cryptic species for conservation is poorly understood.
