Naupliar and Metanaupliar Development of Thysanoessa raschii (Malacostraca, Euphausiacea) from Godthåbsfjord, Greenland, with a Reinstatement of the Ancestral Status of the Free-Living Nauplius in Malacostracan Evolution. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
The presence of a characteristic crustacean larval type, the nauplius, in many crustacean taxa has often been considered one of the few uniting characters of the Crustacea.

Key to marine arthropod larvae [PDF]

Arthropods, 2012
The scope of this key is restricted to the larvae of marine arthropods. The key is based solely on their morphology, patterns of body segmentation, numbers of appendages, and mode of locomotion.

Systematic sequencing of mRNA from the Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) and first tissue specific transcriptional signature [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2008
Background Little is known about the genome sequences of Euphausiacea (krill) although these crustaceans are abundant components of the pelagic ecosystems in all oceans and used for aquaculture and pharmaceutical industry.

A new morphological phylogeny of Malacostraca comparing the application of character dependencies and implied weighting. [PDF]

Cladistics
Abstract Using a new character matrix composed of revised matrices of previous analyses and new morphological findings, the phylogeny of Malacostraca (Pancrustacea) is analysed anew with 207 characters for 35 terminal taxa across all recognized orders. Particular emphasis was placed on methodological versatility, including different degrees of implied ...

MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG-ICE): Metabarcoding Marine Zooplankton Diversity of the Global Ocean. [PDF]

Mol Ecol Resour
ABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding of zooplankton biodiversity is used increasingly for monitoring global ocean ecosystems, requiring comparable data from different research laboratories and ocean regions. The MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG‐ICE) was designed to examine1 and analyse patterns of variation of DNA sequence data resulting from multi ...

Preliminary Ecological Data on the Cocco's Lanternfish Lobianchia gemellarii (Cocco, 1838) (Osteichthyes: Myctophidae) in Mediterranean With New Records in the Northern Ionian Sea. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
This paper presents preliminary ecological data on the Cocco's lanternfish Lobianchia gemellarii (Cocco, 1838) (Osteichthyes: Myctophidae) in the Central Mediterranean and its first records from the northern Ionian Sea. This study also provides information and a new contribution to the knowledge on the role of the species in the Mediterranean marine ...

Diet of three juvenile fish species of the coastal zone of a Southwest Atlantic beach, Brazil

Acta Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2022
Surf zones are associated with a shelter area, nursery and feeding for several species of fish. In this study, the dietary habits of three species of fish with demersal habits (Gulf kingcroaker Menticirrhu gracilis, Whitesea catfish Genidens barbus and ...

Lighten up the dark: metazoan parasites as indicators for the ecology of Antarctic crocodile icefish (Channichthyidae) from the north-west Antarctic Peninsula [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Due to its remote and isolated location, Antarctica is home to a unique diversity of species. The harsh conditions have shaped a primarily highly adapted endemic fauna. This includes the notothenioid family Channichthyidae.

A space‐for‐time framework for forecasting the effects of ocean stratification on zooplankton vertical habitat use and trait composition

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 68, Issue 12, Page 2688-2702, December 2023., 2023
Abstract The effects of environmental change on zooplankton communities, and more broadly, pelagic ecosystems are difficult to predict due to the high diversity of ecological strategies and complex interspecific interactions within the zooplankton. Trait‐based approaches can define zooplankton functional groups with distinct responses to environmental ...

Neurochemical diversity in the central olfactory pathway of the crustacean Parhyale hawaiensis (Amphipoda): evolutionary implications

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 10, Page 1032-1056, July 2023., 2023
Neurochemical diversity in the central olfactory pathway of Parhyale hawaiensis Abstract In mandibulate arthropods, the primary olfactory centers, termed olfactory lobes in crustaceans, are typically organized in distinct fields of dense synaptic neuropils called olfactory glomeruli.
