Keystone Predation: What Is It, and Is It Supported by Empirical Evidence? [PDF]
Ecol EvolKeystone predation has been widely cited as a key ecological mechanism controlling community structures, but is supported by limited theoretical and experimental studies. Reviewing these studies showed keystone predation has been documented across realms, appears to be most prevalent in sessile and dispersal‐limited communities and can be modified by ...

Freshwater BiologyABSTRACT The Antarctic fairy shrimp (Branchinecta gaini) is the largest inland animal in Antarctica and a key component of its freshwater ecosystems. Despite its broad distribution, little is known about its population structure, habitat tolerance, and potential vulnerability to climate change. This study investigated the occurrence, genetic structure,

A first comprehensive dataset of the large branchiopods (Branchiopoda, Anostraca, Notostraca, Laevicaudata, Spinicaudata, Cyclestherida) of India [PDF]
Biodiversity Data JournalLarge branchiopod crustaceans play a crucial ecological and economic role as flagship species in temporary aquatic habitats. With less than 10% of the global fauna identified in the Indian subcontinent, it is essential to conduct comprehensive research ...

Rearing Fairy Shrimp in the Laboratory1 [PDF]
Limnology and Oceanography, 1971 A complex food (dilute duff infusion, yeast, and two species of algae) was found to be highly satisfactory in rearing the anostracan Eubranchipus bundyi. Yeast alone could be used to culture this species but monoxenic algal cultures were inadequate diets.

Mating Patterns and Speciation in the Fairy Shrimp Genus Streptocephalus [PDF]
Evolution, 1979 According to a recent paradigm of the speciation process presented by Ayala (1975), geographic speciation often occurs in two stages. In the first stage isolated populations accumulate genetic differences which may reduce the genetic compatibility between populations. In the second stage the isolated populations regain sympatry. If hybrids have reduced
