Diversity of echinostomes (Digenea: Echinostomatidae) in their snail hosts at high latitudes
The biodiversity of freshwater ecosystems globally still leaves much to be discovered, not least in the trematode parasite fauna they support. Echinostome trematode parasites have complex, multiple-host life-cycles, often involving migratory bird ...

The Preservation of Mollusca [PDF]
THE notice in a recent number of the use of creosote by M. Holbein for the preservation of mollusca, &c., leads me to remark that I have found it of great value for the preservation of coleoptera and other insects. The solution of creosote and water appears to be quite as effectual a preservative as alcohol, and does not harden the tissues or cause ...

The species–area relationship (SAR) on islands describes how the numbers of species increase with increasing island size (or island‐like habitat, such as lakes). Despite its conceptual importance, there is considerable uncertainty surrounding its shape in freshwater lakes, as well as the potential mechanisms that underlie the SAR.
