Chave de identificação de Gastrotricha de águas continentais e marinhas do Brasil
Papéis Avulsos de Zoologia, 2010 Os Gastrotricha são microinvertebrados de vida livre, caracterizados por um estilo de vida meiobentônico em ambientes marinhos e de água doce. Apesar de este grupo ser abundante e ecologicamente importante nas teias alimentares, o seu conhecimento no ...

Microbial methods matter: Identifying discrepancies between microbiome denoising pipelines using a leaf biofilm taphonomic dataset. [PDF]
Appl Plant SciAbstract Premise The occurrence of different microorganisms on aquatic macrophyte fossils suggests that biofilm microbes may facilitate leaf preservation. Understanding the impact of microorganisms on leaf preservation requires studies on living plants coupled with microbial amplicon sequencing.

New data on freshwater psammic Gastrotricha from Brazil
ZooKeys, 2010 Current knowledge of freshwater gastrotrich fauna from Brazil is underestimated as only two studies are available. The present communication is a taxonomic account of the first-ever survey of freshwater Gastrotricha in Minas Gerais State.

Gastrotricha: a marine sister for a freshwater puzzle. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BackgroundWithin an evolutionary framework of Gastrotricha Marinellina flagellata and Redudasys fornerise bear special interest, as they are the only Macrodasyida that inhabit freshwater ecosystems.

Expanding the taxonomic catalog of Brazilian meiofauna: diversity and distribution of the neglected phyla Tardigrada, Gastrotricha, and Kinorhyncha [PDF]
Zoologia (Curitiba)Meiofauna is a guild of microscopic organisms (delimited by the mesh width of two sieves, upper 500 μm and lower 44 μm) that inhabit the sediment grains and periphyton of aquatic environments (both freshwater and marine).

The phylogenetic position of Neogosseidae (Gastrotricha: Chaetonotida) and the origin of planktonic Gastrotricha [PDF]
Organisms Diversity & Evolution, 2015 Planktonic forms of Gastrotricha have been known since the 1850s, despite the fact that they are rather uncommon and difficult to collect. They are characterized by a round sack-shaped body, an absence of furcal adhesive tubes, and a different distribution of the locomotory ciliation compared to epibenthic and periphytic gastrotrichs. Today, planktonic
