The organization of zooplankton epibiont communities

Trends in Ecology & Evolution, 1993
Recent findings suggest that a diverse set of interactions exists between crustacean zooplankton and the algae, protozoans and metazoans that live attached to them. The frequent molting of the crustacean exoskeleton keeps these epibiont populations in a state of constant renewal and makes this epibiont community an ideal experimental system for ...

Coevolution of post‐Palaeozoic arthropod basibiont diversity and encrusting bryozoan epibiont diversity?

Lethaia: an international journal of palaeontology and stratigraphy, 2020
We hypothesize that the diversification of motile marine arthropods with hard carapaces resulted in a concurrent increase in the diversity of encrusting marine bryozoans whose larvae exploited those substrates through the Mesozoic and Cenozoic.

A checklist of ciliate epibionts (Ciliophora) found on bryozoans

Zootaxa, 2020
A compilation of the ciliate (Ciliophora) species found on marine and fresh water bryozoans as epibionts has been carried out based on published records. The checklist includes the taxonomic position of each species of epibiontic ciliate, the species of basibiont bryozoans, localities and the bibliographic references. Altogether 40 ciliate species from

Costs of epibionts on Antarctic sea spiders

Marine Biology, 2018
Nearly all marine animals harbor epibionts, organisms living on their body surfaces. The positive or negative effects that epibionts have on their hosts depend on many factors, including the size and location of the epibionts on their host. The present study examined the effects of epibionts on gas exchange, locomotion, and drag of three species of ...

Some epibiont‐host and epibiont‐epibiont relationships from the birdsong shale member of the lower Devonian Ross formation (west‐central Tennessee, U.S.A.)

Historical Biology, 1992
The Birdsong Shale member of the Ross Formation (Lower Devonian, Western Tennessee, USA) is a mixed siliciclastic‐carbonate sequence that accumulated on a shallow‐water platform.

Report of epibiont ciliates (Cilliophora: Suctorea) on pelagic ostracods (Crustacea: Ostracoda) from the Arabian Sea.

Zootaxa, 2019
The article deals with the report of 5 suctorians viz. Lecanophryella satyanandani (Santhakumari, 1986), Paracineta karunakarani Santhakumari, 1986, Ephelota gemmipara (Hertwig, 1876), Acineta foetida Maupas, 1881 and Pelagacineta sp.

A checklist of suctorian epibiont ciliates (Ciliophora) found on meiobenthic marine nematodes

Journal of Natural History, 2019
A compilation of the ciliated suctorian species found on marine meiobenthic nematodes as epibiont has been carried out based on published records. It included the taxonomic position of each species of ciliate epibiont, the species of basibiont nematodes,

Shells ofPatella asperaas ‘islands’ for epibionts

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2014
In this study we examined the epibiont assemblage on shells of the living limpetPatella aspera. Limpets were collected at two sites at each of the nine islands of the Azores, totalling 707 individuals examined. Shells were measured and all the epibiota identified to the lowest taxonomic resolution possible.

Carbonate Sediment Production by Sargassum Epibionts

SEPM Journal of Sedimentary Research, 1985
ABSTRACT Sargassum and associated calcareous epibionts were collected at sea and on a Bermuda beach. The weight percent of calcium carbonate produced by epibionts averaged 9.4% for samples collected at sea and 5.3% for beached samples. This indicates that Sargassum epibionts are a major potential source of carbonate sediment.

Epibiont communities on stranded kelp rafts of Durvillaea antarctica (Fucales, Phaeophyceae)—Do positive interactions facilitate range extensions?

Journal of Biogeography, 2018
This study examines how rafting on floating bull kelps can shape the biogeographic patterns of raft‐associated species, and analyses the spatio‐temporal variability of taxonomic richness and co‐occurrences of epibionts on beach‐cast rafts of Durvillaea ...
