On the move: sloths and their epibionts as model mobile ecosystems
Biological Reviews, Volume 96, Issue 6, Page 2638-2660, December 2021., 2021 ABSTRACT Sloths are unusual mobile ecosystems, containing a high diversity of epibionts living and growing in their fur as they climb slowly through the canopies of tropical forests. These epibionts include poorly studied algae, arthropods, fungi, and bacteria, making sloths likely reservoirs of unexplored biodiversity.

Retention of microplastics by biofilms and their ingestion by protists in rivers. [PDF]
Environ Microbiol RepBiofilms, which are ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems such as rivers, may play an essential role in the fate of microplastics (MPs) and their ingestion by biofilm protists. A combination of field and laboratory experiments shows that riverine biofilms contain up to 10 times more MPs than ambient water and retain 6–12 times more MPs than surfaces without

Influence of Buffer-Protected Sodium Butyrate Supplementation in the Diet of <i>Penaeus vannamei</i>. [PDF]
Aquac NutrThis study aimed to determine the optimal inclusion level of protected sodium butyrate (PSB) in diets for Penaeus vannamei during the postlarvae to grow‐out phase. A completely randomized design was used with four dietary treatments: 0, 2, 4, and 8 kg/t of PSB (54% sodium butyrate). The PSB product (Novation SL 2002, Spain) contains 54% sodium butyrate
