Infectivity of Chordodes nobilii larvae (Gordiida: Nematomorpha).
Los gordiidos son representantes dulceacuícolas del Phylum parásito Nematomorpha que actúan como un enlace entre ecosistemas acuáticos y terrestres. En años recientes, diferentes estudios ecotoxicológicos se han desarrollado con una especie sudamericana de gordiido, C. nobilii, que ha demostrado la capacidad de este grupo de actuar como bioindicador de

Chordodes colchis (Nematomorpha, Gordiida), a new species from Georgia
A new species, Chordodes colchis, is described from several locations in Georgia. The species resembles some other Chorodes species, especially C. anthophorus, which has also been described from Georgia, but differs in conspicuous details.

ABSTRACT The introduction of exotic species is one of the main drivers of biodiversity loss in aquatic ecosystems. The Harris mud crab Rhithropanopeus harrisii, native to the Atlantic coast of North America, was recorded in the Patos Lagoon estuary (southern Brazil) in the 1980s, likely introduced via ballast water. However, the effects of this invader

A bibliography of works for the identification of freshwater invertebrates in the British Isles [PDF]
This bibliography covers the literature up to the end of 1978. The criteria used in the selection of references were that they should aid identification of invertebrates directly; thus, works solely concerned with the taxonomy of a particular group are ...

The Evolution and Ecology of Host Manipulation in Helminth Parasites: A Phylogenetic Meta‐Analysis
Host manipulation by parasites is wide spread but the conditions shaping it remain unclear. In a phylogenetic meta‐analysis on trophically transmitted helminths, manipulation reliably increased host predation susceptibility to predation in mature parasites, while the effect of immature parasites remained unclear.

Bacterial Associates of a Gregarious Riparian Beetle With Explosive Defensive Chemistry
Bombardier beetles (Carabidae: Brachininae) are well known for their unique explosive defensive chemistry. These beetles are found in riparian corridors throughout the American Southwest, where they commonly form large diurnal multispecies aggregations ...
