Assessing the Presence, Pattern, and Environmental Correlates of Seasonal Skin Thickening in Anurans

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Histological sections, like that of the ventral pectoral skin of Lithobates pipiens, were measured to assess variation in skin thickness throughout the year in three North American anuran species. After correcting for individual body size, we test whether skin thickness changes throughout the year and which factors (environment or life history) explain

Comparative characteristics of physicochemical parameters of meat and biochemical composition of hemolymph in three species of crayfishes

open access: yesБіологічні студії
Background. Crayfish farming is a promising direction in the development of aquaculture. Compared with marine crustacean species, freshwater crayfish require lower cultivation costs, while their meat is regarded as an additive dietary delicacy with a ...

The Effects of Noise on the Juvenile Life Stage of Crustaceans: Behavioral, Cellular, and Molecular Responses in Procambarus clarkii

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Juvenile Procambarus clarkii exposed to noise exhibited behavioral changes, shifts in enzymatic activity, and altered expression of stress and immune genes. The findings highlight the sensitivity of invertebrate juveniles to anthropogenic acoustic pollution.

Land use, associated eel production, and abundance of fish and crayfish in streams in Waikato, New Zealand

open access: yes, 1997
The density and biomass of fish and crayfish, and the production of eels, was compared among streams in native forest, exotic forest, and pasture. Populations were estimated by multiple-pass electroshocking at 11 sites in hill-country streams in the ...

Distribution and dispersal of two invasive crayfish species in the Drava River basin, Croatia [PDF]

open access: yesKnowledge and Management of Aquatic Ecosystems, 2009
The aim of this work is to explore the current distribution and dispersal rates of two nonindigenous crayfish species (NICS) recorded in Croatia: the signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) and spiny-cheek crayfish(Orconectes limosus).

The collective application of shorebird tracking data to conservation

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Addressing urgent conservation issues, such as the drastic declines of North American migratory birds, requires creative, evidence‐based, efficient, and collaborative approaches. The abundance of over 50% of monitored North American shorebird populations has declined by over 50% since 1980. To address these declines, we developed a partnership

Flow cytometric characterization of freshwater crayfish hemocytes for the examination of physiological status in wild and captive animals

open access: yes, 2009
Enumeration of invertebrate hemocytes is a potentially powerful tool for the determination of physiological effects of extrinsic stressors, such as hypoxia, disease, and toxicant exposure.
