Functional anatony of Brachidontes solisianus (orbigny, 1846) (Bivalvia: Mytilidae)

open access: yesBoletim de Zoologia, 1984
A anatomia funcional de B. solisianus, foi estudada com especial atenção ao funcionamento dos sifões, palpos, ctenídios e estômago. Procurou-se dar ênfase às adaptações daquelas estruturas ao meio em que o animal vive. Foram analisados com detalhe a motilidade e sensibilidade dos sifões, a estrutura muscular, o pé e o bisso, a movimentação e ciliação ...

Effects of interactions among primary and secondary foundation species on biodiversity and associated community structure

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract A key foundation species, red mangroves (Rhizophora mangle), and secondary foundation species (oysters, sponges, and barnacles) that reside on mangrove prop roots are abundant along the coastline in subtropical Florida. We hypothesized the Foundation Species Interaction Biodiversity (FSIB) model, which explains the relationships between the ...

How Marine Megabenthos Fauna Responds to River Discharge and Artificial Flood in Large River Estuary

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2025.
The artificial flood reshaped the geographical distribution of megabenthic fauna in the estuarine area in a short time, mainly as a result of the dramatic changes in seawater salinity and nutrients caused by flow pulse. An eco‐friendly discharge management of the Yellow River is needed to weaken the impact. ABSTRACT Estuaries are ecologically sensitive
