Decreased depth distribution of Fucus vesiculosus (Phaeophyceae) in the Western Baltic: effects of light deficiency and epibionts on growth and photosynthesis [PDF]

, 2008
For many coastal areas of the world, a decrease in abundance and depth penetration of perennial macroalgae and seagrasses has been documented and attributed to eutrophication.

Changing bryozoan fauna in Otago Harbour reflects growing urbanisation and globalisation

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 957-978, December 2025.
ABSTRACT A comparison between historic reports dating from 1884 (78 records of 35 species) to the bryozoan fauna present today (98 colonies of 14 species) reveals considerable faunal change in Otago Harbour / Te Wai Ōtākou (45° 50'S 170° 38'E) in Dunedin, east coast of South Island, Aotearoa New Zealand.

Prevalence of Colacium vesiculosum (Colaciales: Euglenophyceae) on planktonic crustaceans in a subtropical shallow lake of Argentina

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2011
Colacium vesiculosum (Euglenophyceae) is an epibiont common on planktonic microcrustaceans of continental waters. The interaction between epibionts and substrate organisms is not very well known, particularly in subtropical environments of South America.

Mesozoic-Cenozoic crustaceans preserved within echinoid tests and bivalve shells [PDF]

, 2015
Associations of crustaceans with echinoids (Echinodermata) and bivalves (Mollusca) are not uncommon in modern oceans. Here we record the occurrence of anomurans, brachyurans and isopods within echinoid tests and bivalve shells from the Middle Jurassic ...

Metabolic Potential of Candidatus Saccharimonadia Including Rare Lineages in Activated Sludge

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 17, Issue 6, December 2025.
Candidatus Saccharimonadia is ubiquitously found in activated sludge processes, but its ecophysiological characteristics remain poorly understood. Metagenome analysis of Ca. Saccharimonadia in size‐fractionated activated sludge revealed that the epiparasitic lifestyle may extend to diverse lineages of Ca.

Occurrence of phoresy between Ancistrus multispinis (Actinopterygii: Siluriformes) and Ichthyocladius sp. (Diptera: Chironomidae) in Atlantic forest streams, Southeastern Brazil

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2018
Phoretic relationships often bring large advantages to epibionts. By attaching themselves to mobile hosts, epibionts are able to: expand their ranges without spending energy, reduce their risk of being predated, and increase their probability of finding ...

Report of Trematosoma rotunda (Ciliophora, Suctorea) as epibiont on harpacticoid copepod from western Indian coast

Acta Biologica, 2020
Suctorian ciliate Trematosoma rotunda (Allgén, 1952) is reported here for the first time as epibiont on a harpacticoid copepod collected from Mandovi river estuarine mouth, Goa, west coast of India, Arabian Sea.

H-Aquil: a chemically defined cell culture medium for trace metal studies in Vibrios and other marine heterotrophic bacteria [PDF]

, 2019
A variety of trace metals, including prominently iron (Fe) are necessary for marine microorganisms. Chemically defined medium recipes have been used for several decades to study phytoplankton, but similar methods have not been adopted as widely in ...

Epibionts on Arenaeus cribrarius (Brachyura: Portunidae) from Brazil

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2010
Mean prevalence and intensity of infestations by epibionts were evaluated in Arenaeus cribrarius (Lamarck, 1818), based on monthly samplings (May/1991 to April/1993), in Ubatuba, Brazil. Bryozoans were quantified in terms of colony numbers and barnacles by the number of specimens.

Coupling gel electrophoresis with photoluminescence reveals biochrome complexes in modern and fossil shells

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 12, Page 2807-2818, December 2025.
Abstract Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis is commonly used to visualize mixtures of proteins, such as those embedded in calcareous biominerals. However, it is ineffective for the detection of biochromes, a major class of low molecular weight organic compounds commonly associated with calcified exoskeletons.
