Testing the deep‐sea glacial disturbance hypothesis as a cause of low, present‐day Norwegian Sea diversity and resulting steep latitudinal diversity gradient, using fossil records

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 7, July 2024.
Abstract Aim Within the intensively‐studied, well‐documented latitudinal diversity gradient, the deep‐sea biodiversity of the present‐day Norwegian Sea stands out with its notably low diversity, constituting a steep latitudinal diversity gradient in the North Atlantic. The reason behind this has long been a topic of debate and speculation.

Redescription of Echinoderes levanderi Karling, 1954 (Kinorhyncha: Cyclorhagida) – a kinorhynch tolerant to very low salinities

European Journal of Taxonomy, 2018
The kinorhynch species Echinoderes levanderi Karling, 1954 is redescribed. The species can now be recognized by the presence of spines in middorsal positions on segments 4–8, and in lateroventral positions on segments 6–9, with lateroventral spines on ...

Copepoda of lowland springs: diversity patterns and integrative taxonomy of Cyclops

Journal of Limnology
Groundwater copepods in lowland Europe remain insufficiently studied compared to those from mountainous regions. Here, we present the results of a faunistic and ecological survey of lowland springs, conducted in the context of earlier research on ...

Taxonomic Study of Free-Living Marine Nematodes in the Subgenus Tricoma (Desmoscolecida: Desmoscolecidae) from the Subtidal Zone of the East Sea, Korea, with Insights into the Ultrastructure of the Lip Region

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
This study provides a taxonomic analysis of three newly discovered species of free-living marine nematodes in the subgenus Tricoma from the East Sea, Korea. Tricoma (Tricoma) polyringulata sp. nov. is characterized by its relatively small body size, with

Meiofauna from Almirante Câmara Canyon and Its Adjacent Open Slope, Southwest Atlantic Ocean

Coasts
The patterns of meiofaunal distribution in a submarine canyon and adjacent open-slope habitats at Campos Basin, southwest Atlantic, were investigated. A total of eight stations was sampled, four inside the Canyon Almirante Câmara and four on the adjacent
