Marine gastropods of Accra Beach, Barbados, North Atlantic Ocean

, 2020
The widespread occurrence of marine gastropods in coastal regions is a straightforward evidence of successful adaptation to different environments. In the Caribbean Sea, as one of Conservation International’s biodiversity hotspots, little is known about ...

Reconsidering the role of introduced species in the climate‐affected and highly invaded eastern Mediterranean

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioinvasions are considered mostly as a biodiversity and conservation hazard, but in specific situations, introduced species can bring ecological or socioeconomic benefits. We assessed the social–ecological role of marine introduced species in the eastern Mediterranean Sea—a global hotspot of bioinvasions and extirpations—and their potential ...

The Norian Worthenia-like gastropods (Main Dolomite, Upper Triassic): reclassification of the specimens housed at the “Antonio Stoppani” Natural Museum, Italy

Natural History Sciences, 2019
Despite being very common, the Norian gastropods of the Main Dolomite Formation usually referred to as “Worthenia”, have not been well classified yet. This is principally due to a dearth of well-preserved specimens.

Global distribution of aquatic animal telemetry effort reveals geographic biases and opportunities for more inclusive tracking studies

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Despite broad global distribution of aquatic telemetry studies, important biogeographic regions remain poorly investigated. The most important variables correlated with the distribution of telemetry studies were political stability, conservation funding, number of scientific documents, and English as a first language.

Bioaccumulation of microcystins in two freshwater gastropods from a cyanobacteria-bloom plateau lake, Lake Dianchi

, 2012
To investigate the bioaccumulation patterns of microcystins (MCs) in organs of two gastropods, samples were collected in Lake Dianchi monthly from May to October, 2008, when cyanobacteria typically bloom. The average MCs concentrations for Radix swinhoei

Examining the Impact of Derelict Pots on Blue Crab (Callinectes sapidus) Catch and Harvest Within a Recreational Fishery

Fisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Derelict fishing gear can negatively affect marine ecosystems through mortality in coastal environments. This study explored the impact of derelict and active crab pots on recreational blue crab (Callinectes sapidus) catch rates and landings in a Mid‐Atlantic estuary by deploying experimental pots in four habitat strata within three sections ...
