Life history of Perarella schneideri (Hydrozoa, Cytaedidae) in the Ligurian Sea
Scientia Marina, 2000 Perarella schneideri is a cytaeidid hydroid living in association with the bryozoan Schizoporella longirostris. In this study we have distinguished the presence of two kinds of polyps in its colonies: large gastrozooids and very extensible filiform ...

Bioconstruction and biodiversity: their mutual influence
Scientia Marina, 2004 This paper describes the functional role of main benthic constructor organisms and reviews processes by which bioconstructions increase diversity and abundance of associated biota, and the reverse.

Space utilisation patterns of bryozoans on the Patagonian scallop Psychrochlamys patagonica
Scientia Marina, 2009 We studied the bryozoan assemblage encrusting valves of the Patagonian scallop, Psychrochlamys patagonica, in 4 beds distributed along the continental shelf off Argentina to analyse (a) the distribution pattern of bryozoan colonies in different zones of ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 Globally, there is growing concern regarding the effects of the increasing anthropogenic pressures in marine communities. Artificial structures such as marinas and aquaculture facilities serve as invasion hotspots; hence, monitoring fouling communities ...

Compositional Differences in the Habitat-Forming Bryozoan Communities of the Antarctic Shelf
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018 In some areas of the Antarctic shelf, bryozoans are abundant, acting as ecosystem engineers creating secondary structures with wide benthic coverage and harboring numerous other species.
