First Record of <i>Triops cancriformis</i> (Branchiopoda: Notostraca) in Qatar: Its Origin and Range Expansion Inferred From Genetics, Morphology, and Reproduction. [PDF]
First record of Triops cancriformis is reported in Qatar using genetic, morphological, and reproductive data. The closest relative of this population is found in Germany. Dispersal of propagules is believed to be via avian seasonal migration. ABSTRACT The presence of Triops cancriformis has not been broadly reported outside Europe or North Africa ...

Impact on Plankton Communities Following Abandonment of Rice Cultivation and Biotope Creation. [PDF]
This study clarified changes in plankton communities during the first year of fallow in long‐term cultivated paddy fields in Kyoto. These fields were in a fallow state, with no planting, cultivation, or fertilization occurring. When water was introduced at the same time of year as during active use and the fields were converted into biotopes, diversity

Life-history omnivory in the fairy shrimp Branchinecta orientalis (Branchiopoda: Anostraca)
Very little is known about the feeding of naupliar and juvenile life stages of omnivorous fairy shrimps (Crustacea: Anostraca). Here, we aim to reveal whether the fairy shrimp Branchinecta orientalis is an ontogenetic omnivore and at which age and ...
