The Plasticity of the Antioxidant Defence System of Coastal Zooplankton Communities

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, July 2026.
In this photo, a copepodite Acartia spp. is represented with Vorticella epiphytes. This photo was taken with the help of a PlanktoScope, which belongs to the Hellenic Centre for Marine Research. Photographer: Andriana Koutsandrea. ABSTRACT Zooplankton are expected to enhance their antioxidant defences and activate stress‐related biomarkers in response ...

On the Significance of Neuronal Giantism in Gastropods

The Biological Bulletin, 1991
Neurons of the central ganglia of opisthobranch and pulmonate gastropods increase in size as the animals grow, some becoming veritable giants. The origins and functions of neuronal giantism are considered here from a comparative viewpoint. A review of the properties of identified neurons in a variety of opisthobranch and pulmonate species indicates ...

Benthic megafauna and the functioning of macroalgal forests and urchin barrens

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 7, July 2026.
Two temperate rocky reef food‐web models, representing the trophic diversity of the Mediterranean rocky reef communities, were built for the two stable states: macroalgal forests and barren grounds, which are characterized by opposite amounts of erect macroalgal biomass.

Evaluating a 5-year metal contamination remediation and the biomonitoring potential of a freshwater gastropod along the Xiangjiang River, China

, 2018
Effective remediation of heavy metal pollution in aquatic systems is desired in many regions, but it requires integrative assessments of sediments, water, and biota that can serve as robust biomonitors.

High-Resolution Integrative Delimitation of Intertidal Limpets via Multi-Locus Barcodes and SEM Morphology

Diversity
Limpets are marine gastropod molluscs well adapted to intertidal rocky environments, yet their taxonomic resolution remains challenging due to extensive morphological convergence and the presence of cryptic species.

Surface complexity and gastropod exclusion drive colonization of an intertidal eco‐engineered structure

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Habitat complexity and grazing by invertebrate molluscs shaped community structure and ecosystem functioning on eco‐engineered substrates through distinct mechanisms. Increasing structural complexity increased invertebrate species richness with limited effects on macroalgae and carbon flux, while grazer exclusion had strong effects on macroalgal ...

Ecological study of gastropod on seagrass ecosystem in small island sea North Maluku Indonesia

Depik Jurnal
The seagrass ecosystem is a habitat and food source for fish and other aquatic biota. One of the biota commonly found in seagrass beds is gastropods . This aim research was carried of identifying the composition of gastropod species, assessing ecological

Blue plaque review series: Thomas Graham Brown: Before his time

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 7, Page 3191-3202, 1 July 2026.
Abstract Thomas Graham Brown made a seminal discovery, published in 1911 while he was a Carnegie Fellow in the University of Liverpool laboratory of Nobel Prize winner Charles S. Sherrington. Working in cats, he showed that rhythmic ‘voluntary’ behaviour, such as stepping and, by inference, walking, does not result from a chain of reflex events, but ...

Habitat Variation among Aquatic Gastropod Assemblages of Indiana, U.S.A.

, 2009
We collected aquatic gastropods at 137 sites in lakes and streams of Indiana and tested for patterns of assemblages with environmental variables. The survey resulted in 32 species with a mean of 2.8 species at each site, and a mean abundance at each site
