Abstract The collisional evolution of the micro‐blocks in the northeastern Tibetan Plateau is relatively well constrained. However, the reason why a fragment of the North China Block, the Olongbuluke Block, became separated from North China by the Central Qilian Block (a fragment of the South China Block) remains unclear.

This study reports the newly assembled complete mitochondrial genomes for three neritid snails from China: Smaragdia rangiana, Neripteron pileolus, and Vittina cumingiana. Our phylogenetic analyses not only resolved their evolutionary positions within the established two‐subfamily framework but also identified several mislabeled public sequences ...

The Plasticity of the Antioxidant Defence System of Coastal Zooplankton Communities
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 ...

Benthic megafauna and the functioning of macroalgal forests and urchin barrens
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.

Salinity Tolerance Data - Gastropods
Salinity tolerance data for oyster drills (gastropods). Each row is an individual animal and each column is a variable. "species" refers to Urosalpinx (Atlantic oyster drill) and Ocenebra (Japanese oyster drill).

On the Significance of Neuronal Giantism in Gastropods
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 ...

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 ...

Nematodes and trematodes associated with terrestrial gastropods in Nottingham, England [PDF]
A parasitological survey of terrestrial slugs and snails was conducted at popular dog walking locations across the city of Nottingham, with the intensions of finding gastropods infected with parasites of medical (or veterinary) importance such as ...

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