Diet composition of fish species from the southern continental shelf of Colombia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The diet composition of 30 fish species belonging to 16 families from the Pacific Coast of Colombia is described. Benthic crustaceans (37.5%) and bony fishes (23.7%, chiefly demersal) were the most important food items for the fish species analyzed. Data

Early egg traits in Cancer setosus (Decapoda, Brachyura): effects of temperature and female size

open access: yes, 2009
Previous study on Cancer setosus (Molina, 1782) had shown that latitudinal changes in temperature control the number of annual egg masses. This study focused on the effects of pre-oviposition temperature and female size on egg-traits in C.

Effect of salinity stress on the life history variables of Branchipus schaefferi Fisher, 1834 (Crustacea: Anostraca) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
BACKGROUND: Freshwater anostracans inhabit ephemeral water bodies in which as the water level decreases due to evaporation the salt concentration increases. Thus, for most anostracans salinity becomes the major stress factor.

Epibenthic predators control mobile macrofauna associated with a foundation species in a subarctic subtidal community

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Foundation species (FS) are strong facilitators providing habitat for numerous dependent organisms. The communities shaped by FS are commonly structured by interplay of facilitation and consumer control.

Crustacea Ostracoda

open access: yes, 2010
The class Ostracoda is made up of small crustaceans, with a shell size generally ranging from 0.2 to 30 mm, living in a wide variety of aquatic environment, from deep-sea waters to the proximity of hydrothermal springs. A small number of species has been recorded in damp terrestrial environments. The majority of the taxa have a wholly benthic lifestyle,
