Linking regional variation of epibiotic bacterial diversity and trophic ecology in a new species of Kiwaidae (Decapoda, Anomura) from East Scotia Ridge (Antarctica) hydrothermal vents [PDF]
We analyzed the diversity of bacterial epibionts and trophic ecology of a new species of Kiwa yeti crab discovered at two hydrothermal vent fields (E2 and E9) on the East Scotia Ridge (ESR) in the Southern Ocean using a combination of 454 pyrosequencing,

Epistylid ciliates as epibionts on calanoid copepods in an Amazonian floodplain lake (Batata Lake) [PDF]
Aim The main objective was to investigate changes in the prevalence and infestation intensity of the epibiotic relationship (ciliates/calanoids) in relation to the impact of bauxite tailings (natural and impacted areas) during two distinct periods of the
