Distinct microbial communities in an ascidian-crustacean symbiosis. [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
We discovered Amphipoda sp. symbionts within the branchial sac of the Belizean ascidian A. sydneiensis and characterized the microbiomes of this ascidian–crustacean symbiosis. Distinct microbiomes were detected in different body compartments of the host ascidian (tunic and branchial sac), with symbiotic amphipods harbouring microbiomes resembling the ...

A checklist of the marine Harpacticoida (Copepoda) of the Caribbean Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recent surveys on the benthic harpacticoids in the northwestern sector of the Caribbean have called attention to the lack of a list of species of this diverse group in this large tropical basin. A first checklist of the Caribbean harpacticoid copepods is

Far From Roads, Challenges Arise: Unravelling Knowledge Gaps in the Occurrence of Cave‐Restricted Species on the African Continent

open access: yesAfrican Journal of Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Understanding patterns of biodiversity distribution is fundamental for ecology, biogeography, and conservation. However, persistent challenges arise from the inaccessibility of many regions and habitats. Subterranean environments, in particular, host highly distinctive and specialised faunal assemblages, yet their investigation is hindered by ...

Distinctive mitochondrial genome of Calanoid copepod Calanus sinicus with multiple large non-coding regions and reshuffled gene order: Useful molecular markers for phylogenetic and population studies

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background Copepods are highly diverse and abundant, resulting in extensive ecological radiation in marine ecosystems. Calanus sinicus dominates continental shelf waters in the northwest Pacific Ocean and plays an important role in the local ecosystem by
