Larval development ofPhyllaplysia tayloriDall, with a discussion of development in the anaspidea (opisthobranchiata: anaspidea)

Ophelia, 1975
Abstract The development of Phyllaplysia taylori Dall, an anaspid opisthobranch which occurs in the Zostera marina beds along the Pacific coast of North America, is described from development of the egg to post-metamorphosis and settlement. The developmental period within the capsule, approximately 30 days at 14.5 °C, ends with veliconch metamorphosis ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Aplysia kurodai (Anaspidea: Aplysiidae)

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
Complete mitochondrial genome is sequenced from an opisthobranch gastropod Aplysia kurodai. Mitochondrial genome size of the species is 14,113 bp. The mitochondrial genome of A. kurodai contains 13 protein coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes, and 22 tRNA genes like mitochondrial genomes of congeneric species. The gene order of protein coding genes is

Factors associated with oligophagy in two species of sea hares (Mollusca: Anaspidea)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1995
Abstract Unlike most marine invertebrate herbivores, many sea hares (Genus Aplysia) are relatively specialised feeders. In order to assess the factors associated with narrow diet breadth of Aplysia parvula (Guilding) Morch and A. Juliana (Quoy & Gaimard) near Sydney N.S.W., occurrence of Aplysia spp.

Parasitic copepods in the sea hare Dolabrifera brazieri (Gastropoda: Opisthobranchia: Anaspidea)

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2003
The parasitic copepod, Alimeda orientalis, is recorded from the gill of the sea hare, Dolabrifera brazieri (Gastropoda: Opisthobranchia: Anaspidea). Ten specimens of D. brazieri from a population on the coast of New South Wales, Australia were examined for the incidence of parasitism.

Dietary nitrogen availability in macroalgae enhances growth of the sea hare Aplysia californica (Opisthobranchia: Anaspidea)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2004
Abstract Evidence suggests that marine herbivores select for prey items with elevated nitrogen content. We tested this hypothesis with experimental growth studies of the herbivorous gastropod Aplysia californica offered diets of the rhodophyte Gracilaria ferox with varying nitrogen content. A.

The possible role of acetylcholine in the rhythmicity of the crop of Aplysia dactylomela (Opisthobranchia: Anaspidea)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part C: Comparative Pharmacology, 1980
Abstract 1. The isolated crop of Aplysia dactylomela has a pattern of spontaneous activity comprised of 1st order small phasic contractions, 2nd order large tonic contractions and 3rd order slow changes in tonus. 2. Acetylcholine has a positively tonotropic effect on the crop with a threshold between 5 × 10−7 M and 5 × 10−6 M.

Interspecific variation in chemical defenses in the sea hares (Opisthobranchia: Anaspidea)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1994
Most species of sea hares (Opisthobranchia: Anaspidea) sequester secondary metabolites from their algal diets in their digestive glands. Aplysia Juliana Quoy and Gaimard, 1832, a sea hare that feeds on Ulva spp. and Enteromorpha spp., algae with few or no secondary metabolites, were compared with the sympatric sea hares A.

Morphological re-description ofAplysia depilans(Gastropoda: Anaspidea): new insights into the anatomy of the anaspideans

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2018
AlthoughAplysia depilansis a widely known European species and the type species of the genus, the distinctions that separate it from other related congeners are not entirely clear. Aimed at improving this scenario, a detailed morphological description is performed herein, showing some unprecedented and useful features.
