Biogeography of Crustacea and Mollusca of the Subantarctic and Antarctic regions

Scientia Marina, 1999
The Joint Magellan Victor Hensen Campaign in 1994 focused on the biogeographic relationships of the Antarctic and Magellan fauna. The Peracarida and Mollusca sampled at 18 stations in the Beagle Channel by means of an epibenthic sledge were compared with

Shape matters: investigating the utility of geometric morphometric techniques in the deep-sea isopod family Macrostylidae (Isopoda: Asellota)

Frontiers in Marine Science
Accurate taxonomic classification of deep-sea taxa is often impeded by the presence of highly morphologically similar but genetically distinct species.

Keanekaragaman Crustacea Ordo Decapoda Di Kawasan Mangrove Pangkal Babu Desa Tungkal 1, Tanjung Jabung Barat

Jurnal Biologi Universitas Andalas, 2023
Mangrove area is a type of ecosystem with unique characteristics. Mangrove ecosystems are located in brackish waters which are a meeting place between land and sea. Mangroves have an ecological function as a habitat for various types of fauna.

Disentangling the Taxonomic Status of Caprella penantis sensu stricto (Amphipoda: Caprellidae) Using an Integrative Approach

Life, 2022
Despite its importance in intertidal and shallow-water marine ecosystems, Caprella penantis continues to be one of the most taxonomically challenging amphipods in the world. A recent molecular study focusing on C.

Methodological constraints for the stable isotope analysis of different tissues: A comparison between muscle and whole‐body samples in freshwater gammarids

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) stable isotope ratios allow the reconstruction of food webs, provided that all trophic levels are properly characterized. In freshwater ecosystems, small‐bodied invertebrates often occupy central positions in food webs, with whole‐body samples commonly used for their stable isotope analysis, due to ...

Urban bats show dietary flexibility in aquatic arthropod consumption at urban and rural waterbodies

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban waterbodies are critical for biodiversity and provide feeding grounds for insectivorous bats. Yet, how urbanisation affects bats' food choices at urban waterbodies and the role of emergent aquatic arthropods remain poorly understood. We compared the diet of three urban bat species – Vespadelus vulturnus, Chalinolobus gouldii,and Myotis macropus –

Complete larval development of the crab Ilia nucleus (Linnaeus, 1758) (Decapoda: Brachyura: Leucosiidae) reared under laboratory conditions

Scientia Marina, 2009
The complete larval development of the crab Ilia nucleus (Linnaeus, 1758) reared under laboratory conditions was obtained. The four zoeal stages and the megalopa are described and illustrated in detail. The larval features observed in I. nucleus fit into

Carnarvonis gen. nov. and Warregoensis gen. nov.: two new genera and species of subterranean amphipods (Crangonyctoidea: Chillagoeidae) described from north-eastern Australia

Records of the Australian Museum, 2023
Biological surveys are crucial and appropriate approaches for capturing invertebrate biodiversity data and specimens, particularly considering that a significantly high proportion of Australian invertebrates are thought to be undescribed. During the 2014

Crushing and Cutting: Shape Variation and Morphological Integration Between the Claws of Two Swimming Crab Species (Brachyura: Portunidae)

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigated shape variations and morphological integration between the components of crusher and cutter claws in two species of swimming crabs, Callinectes danae and Callinectes ornatus. The propodi and dactyli of the claws were analysed in males and females of both species, using geometric morphometric techniques to identify ...
