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.

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.

The ecology of protists epibiontic on marine hydroids

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2008
Several hydroid species have an epibiontic lifestyle, living associated with organisms of many different phyla. On the other hand, hydroids can also host dense assemblages of microflora and microfauna, mainly composed of protists and bacteria. Among protists, diatoms are the most abundant and diversified group, followed by foraminifera and sessile ...

Epibiont communities on mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber

Palaeoentomology
The mid-Cretaceous Burmese amber was extensively colonized by marine epibiont communities, including pholadids, corals, oysters, and serpulids. In this study, we report a diverse array of marine organisms that adhered to the amber, forming epibiont communities.

Rhabdostylid Ciliates (Ciliophora, Peritrichia, Epistylididae) as Epibionts on Chironomid Larvae: Evidence of High Specificity and Association with Organic Pollution

Zoological Science, 2018
Although epibiont ciliates make up a significant part of the biomass in aquatic ecosystems and may cause perceptible alterations in the population dynamics of their hosts, studies on the extrinsic and intrinsic factors that control the abundance of these

Hitchhiking on Pennsylvanian Echinoids: Epibionts on Archaeocidaris

PALAIOS, 2003
Abstract Thousands of aggregating Archaeocidaris echinoids, many with Crurithyris planoconvexa brachiopods and fenestellid and encrusting bryozoan epibionts on their spines, occur in a Pennsylvanian (Missourian) echinoderm Lagerstatte in the Winchell Formation of north-central Texas.

Protistan epibionts of the ctenophore Mnemiopsis mccradyi Mayer

Hydrobiologia, 2001
Mnemiopsis mccradyi, a common coastal ctenophore, was observed to bear two distinct, exclusive assemblages of protistan epibionts. The mobiline peritrich, Trichodina ctenophorii (Estes et al., 1997), and small Flabellula-like gymnamoebae inhabited only the surface of the comb plates.
