Exploring the seasonal dynamics within the benthic foraminiferal biocoenosis in a tropical monsoon-influenced coastal lagoon

open access: yesAquatic Biology, 2016
Benthic foraminiferal assemblages are widely used as bioproxies for coastal environment monitoring. The present study investigated seasonal variations in live benthic foraminiferal assemblages over a period of 12 mo from the largest coastal lagoon in ...

Improving Taxonomic Practices and Enhancing Its Extensibility—An Example from Araneology

open access: yesDiversity, 2021
Planetary extinction of biodiversity underscores the need for taxonomy. Here, we scrutinize spider taxonomy over the last decade (2008–2018), compiling 2083 published accounts of newly described species.

Integrative taxonomy on the rare sky-island Ligidium species from southwest China (Isopoda, Oniscidea, Ligiidae)

open access: yesBMC Zoology, 2022
Background The sky-island Ligidium species fauna in southwest China is poorly known. Before this study, six of the seven sky-island species of the genus were known to be endemic to southwest China.

Integrative taxonomy and the operationalization of evolutionary independence [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal for Philosophy of Science, 2018
There is growing agreement among taxonomists that species are independently evolving lineages. The central notion of this conception, evolutionary independence, is commonly operationalized by taxonomists in multiple, diverging ways. This leads to a problem of operationalization-dependency in species classification, as species delimitation is not only ...

Unusual abundance of bloom forming Aulacoseira spp. diatom populations in an anthropogenically impacted stretch of lower part of the River Ganga

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Communications, 2022
The River Ganga is reeling from pressures of rapid urbanization and resulting anthropogenic forcings. In this study, phytoplankton community assemblages were deduced from the Dakshineswar site located in the lower stretch of River Ganga to quantify and ...

A Taxonomy of Approaches for Integrating Attack Awareness in Applications [PDF]

open access: yes2020 International Conference on Cyber Security and Protection of Digital Services (Cyber Security), 2020
Software applications are subject to an increasing number of attacks, resulting in data breaches and financial damage. Many solutions have been considered to help mitigate these attacks, such as the integration of attack-awareness techniques. In this paper, we propose a taxonomy illustrating how existing attack awareness techniques can be integrated ...

Diversity versus endemism in cave fauna: A study of the invertebrate biodiversity in two low- and high-altitude caves in the Bavarian Alps (Germany) [PDF]

open access: yesSubterranean Biology
The biodiversity of two caves in the Bavarian Alps, one at low altitude (Angerlloch) and the other at high altitude (Schrecksattel Ice Cave), was studied, with particular attention paid to the relative abundance of trogloxene, troglophile, and ...

Exploring biogeographic patterns of bacterioplankton communities across global estuaries

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2019
Estuaries provide an ideal niche to study structure and function of bacterioplankton communities owing to the presence of a multitude of environmental stressors. Bacterioplankton community structures from nine global estuaries were compared to understand

Study of diatom assemblages in Sundarbans mangrove water based on light microscopy and rbcL gene sequencing

open access: yesHeliyon, 2018
Sundarbans, the world's largest mangrove deltaic region, is one of the most productive ecosystems in tropical and subtropical latitudes and also serve as a nursery ground for rich coastal fisheries.
