Carbon requirements of a population of the estuarine copepod Eurytemora affinis
Marine Biology, 1975The production of algae in the Patuxent River estuary (Maryland, USA) was much less than the carbon requirements of a population of the calanoid copepod Eurytemora affinis. Detrital carbon was present in quantities that suggest turnover times of 8 to 83 days for this pool, assuming that all algal production was consumed by E. affinis.

Copulation in the Copepod Eurytemora Affinis (Poppe, 1880)
Crustaceana, 1975[Les mâles du Copepode d'eau saumâtre Eurytemora affinis ont copule avec les femelles adultes, a teguments fermes, qui ne portaient pas encore de sacs d'oeufs. La saisie de la femelle et la copulation proprement dite ont ete decrites et figurees. Les mâles resistent fortement a la saisie par d'autres mâles.

The effect of epibiont ciliates on the behavior and mating success of the copepod Eurytemora affinis
Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 2013Abstract Epibiotic relationships in aquatic ecosystems usually involve planktonic micro-crustaceans (e.g. copepods) as hosts, and a variety of other microorganisms (e.g. bacteria, algae, ciliates) as epibionts. Several studies have reported the presence of epibionts on various species of calanoid copepods.

Egg production of Eurytemora affinis—Effect of k-strategy
Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science, 1992The number of eggs found in egg sacs of Eurytemora affinis in the Schlei, a mesohaline fjord in the Western Baltic, was determined between January and August, and female prosome length measured. Prosome length at 25°C was only half that at 0°C and was significantly correlated with mean temperature during development.

Transfer of nodularin to the copepod Eurytemora affinis through the microbial food web [PDF]
Aquatic Microbial Ecology, 2009 Nodularia spumigena Mertens ex Bornet & Flahault 1886 (Cyanophyceae) frequently forms harmful blooms in the Baltic Sea, and the toxin nodularin has been found in calanoid copepods during the bl ...

Without Gills: Localization of Osmoregulatory Function in the CopepodEurytemora affinis
Physiological and Biochemical Zoology, 2014The Pancrustacea, which include crustaceans and hexapods, have successfully colonized marine, freshwater, and terrestrial habitats. While members of the class Malacostraca (e.g., crabs, shrimp) often display immense osmoregulatory capacities, more basally branching crustaceans (e.g., copepods, branchiopods) tend to possess less-specialized ...

RAPID AND REPEATED INVASIONS OF FRESH WATER BY THE COPEPODEURYTEMORA AFFINIS
Evolution, 1999Invasions of fresh water by marine organisms have been of great interest to evolutionary biologists and paleontologists because they typically constitute major evolutionary transitions. Recent (< 200 years) invasions of fresh water by brackish or marine species offer an opportunity to understand mechanisms underlying these events, but pathways of ...

Studies On the Status of Eurytemora Affinis (Poppe, 1880) (Copepoda, Calanoida)
Crustaceana, 1992[Anhand eines umfangreichen Probenmaterials aus Astuaren und Kustengewassern der Nordund Ostsee wurde uberpruft, ob Eurytemora affinis, Eu. hirundo und Eu. hirundoides echte Arten oder Varietaten einer Art darstellen. Als Grundlage dienten eine Reihe von morphologischen Merkmalen und die Langen-/Breitenverhaltnisse verschiedener Korperteile.

Morphological stasis in the Eurytemora affinis species complex (Copepoda: Temoridae)
Hydrobiologia, 2002Morphological stasis has long been regarded as one of the most challenging problems in evolutionary biology. This study focused on the copepod species complex, Eurytemora affinis, as a model system to determine pattern and degree of morphological stasis.

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2007
In order to establish effective enzymatic biomarkers that could provide in situ early warning of contaminant exposure in estuarine ecosystems, the potential effects of the principal abiotic factors (temperature and salinity) were investigated on common biomarkers, the acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and the glutathione S-transferase (GST) in Eurytemora ...
