Towards a list of available names in zoology, partim Phylum Rotifera [PDF]
Many, mostly older, names of animal species are nomenclaturally problematic, either because their orthography is unstable, or they cannot be linked reliably to a taxonomic identity, due to the lack of recognisable descriptions and/or types.

ABSTRACT Only recently the under‐ice period is recognised as a time of plankton activity. However, most studies on under‐ice zooplankton focus on low‐land lakes over relatively short temporal scales; long‐term under‐ice zooplankton dynamics in mountain lakes remain largely unknown. We compared the under‐ice zooplankton community (one sampling per year;

ABSTRACT Biodiversity studies have usually been conducted considering only the taxonomic dimension of ecological communities. However, diversity measurements taking into account the functional traits of species may be more sensitive in capturing aspects of community functioning that are not apparent with the more traditional taxonomic approach ...

This study investigates the ecological dynamics of arthropod predators across a transect of an Arctic glacier foreland, to understand how climate change impacts predator–prey interactions. By integrating ecological observations with DNA metabarcoding, our research elucidates the role of the key prey species in shaping spider populations in these ...

A survey of bdelloid rotifers from coastal ponds in Southern Norway
We report the results of the first survey of bdelloid rotifers, microscopic aquatic animals, in continental Norway, collected from coastal ponds in the Southern part of the country in Autumn 2021, using a morphological approach in species identification.

A microscopic model of evolution of recombination [PDF]
We study the evolution of recombination using a microscopic model developed within the frame of the theory of quantitative traits. Two components of fitness are considered: a static one that describes adaptation to environmental factors not related to ...

Ultrastructure of the extraordinary pedal gland in Asplanchna aff. herricki (Rotifera: Monogononta)
The freshwater rotifer Asplanchna aff. herricki possesses a singular pedal gland that secretes a long mucus thread while swimming. The gland is syncytial, binucleate, and produces large membrane‐bound secretion vesicles that fuse and eventually go through a phase transition to a mesh‐like secretion.
