The First Record of Argulus Foliacesus (Crustacea: Branchiura) Infestation on Lionhead Goldfish (Carassius Auratus) in Iran [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Parasitology, 2010 Argulus foliaceus (Crustacea: Branchiura), or the fish louse, is an ectoparasite of the skin or gill of the fresh water fish species. Clinical signs in infected fish include scratching on aquarium walls, erratic swimming, and poor growth.

Impacts of Land Use and Water Quality on Macroinvertebrate Diversity Under Human Disturbance in the Lake Chaohu Basin, China. [PDF]
Ecol EvolOur study revealed that human activities drive changes in macroinvertebrate diversity through the combined effects of land use and water quality. The results showed that sensitive taxa (Semisulcospira cancelata) dominated in low disturbance areas, Bellamya (Bellamya aeruginosa) and Alocinma (Alocinma longicornis) were predominant in moderate ...

Common Food Sources for Macrobenthic Communities in Different Bottom Covers: Submerged Macrophytes and Benthic Cyanobacteria in a Japanese Temperate Lake. [PDF]
Ecol EvolA variety of macrobenthic invertebrates were found in the benthic cyanobacterial and the macrophyte zones in the southern basin of Lake Biwa. Their compositions were clearly different between the zones, but relied on common food sources. ABSTRACT Macrobenthic communities in a lake are affected by the type of bottom cover such as macrophytes or algae ...

From subsidies to stressors: Positively skewed ecological gradients alter biological responses to nutrients in streams. [PDF]
Ecol ApplAbstract Subsidy–stress gradients offer a useful framework for understanding ecological responses to perturbation and may help inform ecological metrics in highly modified systems. Historic, region‐wide shifts from bottomland hardwood forest to row crop agriculture can cause positively skewed impact gradients in alluvial plain ecoregions, resulting in ...

Investigation on parasitic infestation of Labeo rohita (Hamilton, 1822) in the south-western region of Bangladesh. [PDF]
Vet Med SciOver the study, 180 L. rohita specimens were examined,, revealing the presence of six distinct parasite species, consisting of endoparasites. Through microscopic examination, a total of 323 parasites were investigated, categories including Cestode, Nematode, Acanthocephala, Trematode and Digenia, predominantly residing in the intestines and liver of L.

Influence of environmental variables on macroinvertebrate community structure in Lianhuan Lake. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2022 Abstract The structural characteristics of the macroinvertebrate community can effectively reflect the health status of lake ecosystems and the quality of the lake ecological environment. It is therefore important to identify the limiting factors of macroinvertebrate community structure for the maintenance of lake ecosystem health.
