Investigation of the antifouling constituents from the brown alga Sargassum muticum (Yendo) Fensholt [PDF]
, 2008 One of the most promising alternatives to toxic heavy metal-based paints is offered by the development of antifouling coatings in which the active ingredients are compounds naturally occurring in marine organisms and operating as natural antisettlement ...

Epistylid ciliates as epibionts on calanoid copepods in an Amazonian floodplain lake (Batata Lake) [PDF]
Acta Limnologica BrasiliensiaAim 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

Epibiosis and masking material in the spider crab Maja squinado (Decapoda: Majidae) in the Ría de Arousa (Galicia, NW Spain) [PDF]
, 1997 [Abstract] Majid crabs present a marked masking behaviour, which, in addition to the phenomenon of epibiosis on their exoskeleton, constitutes a complex camouflage system to ward off predators.

Epiphytic macroalgae of maricultured Sargassum and their potential utilizations
Aquatic Living ResourcesEpiphytism commonly occurs in marine benthic macroalgae and seagrass communities under natural conditions and those of mariculture. This can greatly obstruct the cultivation of commercial seaweeds and ultimately impacts the seaweed aquaculture industry ...
