Nature Communications, 2017 It remains unclear how oligotrophic habitats in subterranean estuaries sustain complex ecosystems. Here, using stable isotopic evidence from organic matter and pelagic shrimp, the authors show that a microbial loop fuelled by methane and dissolved ...

Global biodiversity and phylogenetic evaluation of remipedia (crustacea).
PLoS ONE, 2011 Remipedia is one of the most recently discovered classes of crustaceans, first described in 1981 from anchialine caves in the Bahamas Archipelago. The class is divided into the order Enantiopoda, represented by two fossil species, and Nectiopoda, which ...

Anchialine Cave Environments: a novel chemosynthetic ecosystem and its ecology [PDF]
, 2013 It was long thought that dark, nutrient depleted environments, such as the deep sea and subterranean caves, were largely devoid of life and supported low-density assemblages of endemic fauna.

Reproduction and development in Halocaridina rubra Holthuis, 1963 (Crustacea: Atyidae) clarifies larval ecology in the Hawaiian anchialine ecosystem [PDF]
, 2015 Larvae in aquatic habitats often develop in environments different from those they inhabit as adults. Shrimp in the Atyidae exemplify this trend, as larvae of many species require salt or brackish water for development, while adults are freshwater ...
