Survivors and colonizers: Contrasting biogeographic histories reconciled in the Antarctic freshwater copepod Boeckella poppei [PDF]
Two main hypotheses have been proposed to explain the contemporary distribution of Antarctic terrestrial biota. We assess whether the current distribution of maritime Antarctic populations of the freshwater copepod Boeckella poppei is the result of (1) a

New species of Boeckella (Copepoda: Calanoida) [PDF]
The new species, Boeckella bispinosa, is described and figured from Tasmanian material. The male fifth legs of B. opaqua Fairbridge, a Western Australian species, are figured and the original description supplemented. The female genital segment of B. pseudocheZae Searle is figured. New records of B. symmetrica Sars, B. minuta Sars, and B.

Abstract Aim We investigated evolutionary relationships and biogeographical patterns within the genus Boeckella to evaluate (1) whether its current widespread distribution in the Southern Hemisphere is due to recent long‐distance dispersal or long‐term diversification; and (2) the age and origin of sub‐Antarctic and Antarctic Boeckella species, with ...

Changes and collapse in lacustrine system in Antarctic Peninsula ice-free area: Boeckella and Buenos Aires lakes [PDF]
Some Antarctic ice-free areas have been affected by changes in lacustrine zones and permafrost thawing due to rising air temperatures over the last 60 years Temperature time-series were analyzed to understand the processes leading to the changes of ...

DISTRIBUTIONAL PATTERNS OF THE SOUTH AMERICAN SPECIES OF BOECKELLA (COPEPODA: CENTROPAGIDAE): A TRACK ANALYSIS [PDF]
Abstract South American species of the freshwater copepod genus Boeckella are distributed in the Andean region, which corresponds to southwestern South America below 30° south latitude, also extending along the Andean highlands north of this latitude, and comprises the Subantarctic, Central Chilean, Patagonian, and Paramo-Puna subregions.

Skistodiaptomus pallidus (Copepoda: Diaptomidae) establishment in New Zealand natural lakes, and its effects on zooplankton community composition [PDF]
The North American calanoid copepod Skistodiaptomus pallidus is an emerging invader globally, with non-indigenous populations recorded from constructed waters in New Zealand, Germany and Mexico since 2000. We examined the effects of S.
