Distribution of the genus Boeckella (Crustacea, Copepoda, Calanoida, Centropagidae) at high latitudes in South America and the main Antarctic biogeographic regions [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2019 Copepods are present in numerous aquatic environments, playing key roles in food webs, and are thought to be useful indicators of environmental change. Boeckella is a calanoid copepod genus distributed mainly in the Southern Hemisphere, with 14 species ...

Distribución geográfica de Boeckella y Neoboeckella (Calanoida: Centropagidae) en el Perú
Revista Peruana de Biología, 2014 El análisis de muestras de plancton colectadas en diferentes localidades a lo largo de los Andes peruanos, dieron como resultado el registro de siete especies de Boeckella (gracilis, gracilipes, calcaris, poopoensis, occidentalis, titicacae y palustris ...

Morphometric differences in two calanoid sibling species, Boeckella gracilipes and B. titicacae (Crustacea, Copepoda) Diferencias morfométricas en dos especies hermanas Boeckella gracilipes y Boeckella titicacae (Crustacea, Copepoda) [PDF]
Iheringia: Série Zoologia, 2012 Calanoid copepods are abundant in South American inland waters and include widespread species, such as Boeckella gracilipes (Daday, 1902), which occurs from the Ecuador to Tierra del Fuego Island.

Reversible intracellular acidification and depletion of NTPs provide a potential physiological origin for centuries of dormancy in an Antarctic freshwater copepod [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 A great diversity of crustacean zooplankton found in inland and coastal waters produce embryos that settle into bottom sediments to form an egg bank. Embryos from these banks can remain dormant for centuries, creating a reservoir of genetic diversity.

Emerging biological archives can reveal ecological and climatic change in Antarctica. [PDF]
Glob Chang Biol, 2022 Antarctic and Southern Ocean biological archives such as extant moss beds and peat profiles, biological proxies in lake and marine sediments, vertebrate animal colonies, and extant terrestrial and benthic marine invertebrates, record the nature and rate of past ecological change, paleoenvironmental drivers of that change, and constrain ecosystem and ...

Population features of Boeckella poppei in Lake Wujka, King George Island
Український антарктичний журнал, 2021 The maritime Antarctic is one of the most interesting regions on planet where climate change can be observed to impact all components of its poor flora. Boeckella poppei is common in the maritime and continental Antarctic species of the copepod.

Assessment of the cyst wall and surface microbiota in dormant embryos of the Antarctic calanoid copepod, Boeckella poppei. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepA diverse microbiome colonizes the surface of dormant copepod embryos, which can survive for ~200 years in lake sediments. During dormancy, the outer two layers of a five‐layered cyst wall break apart, while the third layer remains undamaged, despite the presence of microbial species with chitinase genes.

Top-down control by an aquatic invertebrate predator increases with temperature but does not depend on individual behavioral type. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2018 Potential interactive effects of warming and intraspecific behavioral variation on food web processes are largely unexplored. Using a microcosm experiment with an aquatic invertebrate predator, we found effects of temperature but not individual behavioral type on top‐down control.
