Distribution and ecology of non-marine ostracods (Crustacea, Ostracoda) from Friuli Venezia Giulia (NE Italy)

Journal of Limnology, 2009
From August 1981 to July 2007, 200 inland water bodies were sampled to gather information on the Recent ostracod fauna of Friuli Venezia Giulia (NE Italy). A total of 320 samples were collected from surface, interstitial and ground waters.

The recent non-marine ostracods of Tunisia: an updated checklist with remarks on their regional distribution patterns and ecological preferences

Journal of Limnology, 2020
Different lines of investigation have recently contributed to increasing the available knowledge about the invertebrates inhabiting inland waters of north Africa, but a comprehensive synopsis on Tunisian Ostracoda is missing to date. An updated checklist

A Comprehensive Occurrence Dataset for European Ostracoda Inhabiting Groundwater and Groundwater‐Dependent Ecosystems

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 6, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Motivation Groundwater ecosystems sustain a unique and globally important biodiversity but remain understudied due to sampling and exploration challenges, as well as a shortage of taxonomic experts. Groundwater ostracods, like other groundwater taxa, exhibit a high degree of endemism, rarity and subterranean specialisation, positioning them as

Environmental Gradients, Not Geographic Boundaries, Structure Meiofaunal Communities in Siberian Seas

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 3, May–June 2025.
This study uses sediment eDNA metabarcoding to assess the diversity and distribution of meiofauna in Siberian seas, marking the first application of this technique in the region. Our results reveal that meiofauna diversity is similar across the three studied seas; however, both meiofauna diversity and the maturity index of nematode communities are ...

How, What, and Where You Sample Environmental DNA Affects Diversity Estimates and Species Detection

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 6, November–December 2024.
This study evaluates the impact of two eDNA capture methods—grab samples and tow nets—on species detection and diversity assessment in various aquatic environments in Minnesota, Florida, and Switzerland. It finds that while tow nets yield more eDNA, they do not necessarily correlate with higher biodiversity, highlighting that both capture method and ...

An updated checklist of Recent ostracods (Crustacea: Ostracoda) from inland waters of Sicily and adjacent small islands with notes on their distribution and ecology

The European Zoological Journal, 2020
Because of its position in the middle of the Mediterranea Sea and a complex geological history that has promoted repeated waves of biological colonization, Sicily (Southern Italy) is of particular interest from a biogeographical perspective.

Invertebrates from naturally brackish areas are less impacted by road salt and alternative deicers

Invertebrate Biology, Volume 143, Issue 2, June 2024.
Abstract Road salt (NaCl) is the most common deicer used to melt snow and ice from roadways in cold climates, but its use results in runoff of sodium and chloride ions into sewers and into soil and freshwater ecosystems. Road salt causes harmful effects on wetland habitats, which host an abundance of macroinvertebrate species. Alternatives to road salt,
