First record of Lynceus brachyurus (Branchiopoda: Diplostraca: Laevicaudata: Lynceidae) in Armenia
Acta Biologica SibiricaLynceus brachyurus was first discovered in the highland wetland of Armenia. This finding not only contributes to our understanding of the geographic distribution of Lynceus brachyurus but also sheds light on the ecological preferences and adaptability of

From Mud to Meat: Comparative Metabarcoding Reveals Two Different Evolutionary Paths to Carnivory in a Group of Meiofaunal Annelids. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Evolutionary transitions to carnivory represent profound shifts in feeding mode that are often accompanied by widespread changes in organismal function, behaviour and ecology. Such transitions have evolved numerous times among animals, and predator–prey interactions have been major drivers of animal evolution.

Phylogenetic Signal Dissection of Heterogeneous 28S and 16S rRNA Genes in Spinicaudata (Branchiopoda, Diplostraca). [PDF]
Genes (Basel), 2021 It is still a challenge to reconstruct the deep phylogenetic relationships within spinicaudatans, and there are several different competing hypotheses regarding the interrelationships among Eocyzicidae, Cyzicidae s. s., Leptestheriidae, and Limnadiidae of the Suborder Spinicaudata.

The Acute Toxicity of Salinity in Onshore Unconventional Gas Waters to Freshwater Invertebrates in Receiving Environments: A Systematic Review. [PDF]
Environ Toxicol Chem, 2022 Comparing the acute toxicity (48–96‐h) of sodium chloride (NaCl) and/or synthetic marine salt laboratory exposures of freshwater invertebrates to the salinity in unconventional gas produced waters from coal bed methane and shale gas extraction, and how other major ions (Ca2+, K+, Mg2+, CO32–, HCO3–, SO42–) can influence the toxicity of Na+ and Cl– ions

The spinicaudatan clam shrimps (Branchiopoda: Diplostraca) of Thailand [PDF]
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2016 Spinicaudatan clam shrimps have been reported from Thailand and Cambodia, but are poorly known for Southeast Asia. We conducted widespread, intensive surveys for spinicaudatan clam shrimps across Thailand. We report five species and present diagnoses for each, with remarks on the Asian taxa.

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 29, Issue 11, Page 1420-1431, November 2023., 2023 Abstract Aim In 2024, cargo vessels must meet the International Maritime Organization's global ballast water discharge standards (IMO D‐2) that limit the concentration of living organisms. D‐2 focuses on reducing invasion risk by reducing ‘community propagule pressure (CPP)’, though it does not consider colonization pressure (CP).

Post-larval developmental dynamics of the Spinicaudatan (Branchiopoda: Diplostraca) carapace [PDF]
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2014 The evolution of reproductive systems is of critical importance to evolution and yet has been difficult to examine using paleontological information. Recent studies on freshwater “clam shrimp” in both extant and fossil populations have demonstrated that sex can be inferred by quantifying morphological differences of the carapaces.

Environmental DNA, Volume 5, Issue 5, Page 1016-1031, September 2023., 2023 This article highlights the utility and limitations of environmental nucleic acid‐based metabarcoding in accurately quantifying decay rates using two barcode markers targeting Arthropoda taxa. We demonstrate the need for further comparative studies using both metabarcoding and single‐species detection methods to assess the persistence and degradation ...

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 331-352, August 2023., 2023 This paper is a review paper based on biofloc technology (BFT). In this paper the current global status of BFT, the biology behind the technique and areas for future expansion are discussed. Abstract Increased food demand, reflecting a rising global human population, attaining 8 billion in 2022, has furthered the intensification of farmed aquatic ...
