Anchialine caves of the Krka River estuary, Croatia

2022
Anchialine caves have been the subject of increasing research in recent years due to their interesting aquatic environment, which combines the characteristics of a subterranean estuary (stratified water body) and a deep ocean (lack of light and oxygen, chemosynthesis, slow water exchange). In the Republic of Croatia, along the Adriatic coast and on the

Nematode diversity of freshwater and anchialine caves of Western Cuba

Proceedings of the Biological Society of Washington, 2018
Abstract The diversity and ecology of meiofauna in caves is largely unknown. Therefore, we studied one anchialine and five freshwater caves in November 2014 and January 2016 in western Cuba. We recorded 10 invertebrate taxa with the most abundant being: Nematoda, Ostracoda, Acari and Copepoda.

New cyclopoids (Copepoda) from anchialine caves in Bermuda

Sarsia, 1993
Abstract A new species of Speleoithona and two new species of Halicyclops are described from plankton samples taken in anchialine caves in Bermuda. Halicyclops ytororoma, previously known from interstitial intertidal waters along the coast of the State of Sao Paulo, Brazil, is also found in these troglobiont samples.

Microbial diversity in Adriatic anchialine caves

2019
Background: Anchialine caves can be defined as tidally-influenced subterranean estuary located within crevicular and cavernous karst and volcanic terrains that extends inland to the limit of seawater penetration. The anchialine ecosystem supports a diverse biotic assemblage predominantly comprising stygobiotic species of marine origin, many of which ...

Habitat-Based Conservation of Anchialine Cave Crustaceans

Abstract Anchialine ecology is a relatively new endeavor, dating to the early 1980s with the application of technical cave diving methodology to scientific investigations of underwater cave ecosystems. The first major discoveries involved the new class Remipedia from blue holes in the Bahamas and the new order Mictacea from Bermuda ...

Mexican anchialine fauna — With emphasis in the high biodiversity cave El Aerolito

Regional Studies in Marine Science, 2017
Abstract Anchialine ecosystems are one of the least studied in the world since they are very difficult to access, their bibliography is scant and widely scattered, and studies rarely specify actual locations. Mexico is one of the richest countries for these ecosystems, as it has a huge number of cenotes (sinkholes) just in the Yucatan Peninsula. Here

Trace metals in water columns of anchialine caves

2013
Anijaline špilje nalazimo na morskoj obali, s ulazom iznad morske razine. Akumulacija slatke vode na površini i stratificirani vodeni stupac s izraženom haloklinom, te povezanost s morem kroz okršene i porozne karbonatne stijene čine ove podzemne objekte jedinstvenim prirodnim sustavima.
