Different invasibility of permanent and temporary waterbodies in a semiarid Mediterranean Island [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Nonindigenous species (NIS) represent a threat to aquatic biodiversity worldwide. However, freshwater ecosystems in drylands are potentially more prone to biological invasions than those located in temperate regions because of the higher number of ...

Modality matters for the expression of inducible defenses: introducing a concept of predator modality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Inducible defenses are a common and widespread form of phenotypic plasticity. A fundamental factor driving their evolution is an unpredictable and heterogeneous predation pressure. This heterogeneity is often used synonymously to quantitative

Environmental conditions limit the distribution of Lepidurus arcticus (Branchiopoda, Notostraca) in lakes on the Hardangervidda mountain plateau, Southern Norway

open access: yesFauna Norvegica, 2019
The Arctic tadpole shrimp Lepidurus arcticus has a circumpolar distribution where the Hardangervidda mountain plateau in Norway marks its southernmost limit. Within this area, we searched for L. arcticus in 238 lakes in 27 catchments.

How do freshwater organisms cross the “dry ocean”? A review on passive dispersal and colonization processes with a special focus on temporary ponds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Lakes and ponds are scattered on Earth’s surface as islands in the ocean. The organisms inhabiting these ecosystems have thus developed strategies to pass the barrier represented by the surrounding land, disperse and colonise new environments.

Feeding spectra and activity of the freshwater crab Trichodactylus kensleyi (Decapoda: Brachyura: Trichodactylidae) at La Plata basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background: In inland water systems, it is important to characterize the trophic links in order to identify the ‘trophic species’ and, from the studies of functional diversity, understand the dynamics of matter and energy in these environments.

Observations on Phallocryptus spinosa (Branchiopoda, Anostraca) populations from the high plateaus of Northeastern Algeria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Phallocryptus spinosa (Thamnocephalidae) is a small primitive crustacean which lives in temporary saline pools of the Palaearctic region called Chott, Sebkha, Garâa or Daya in North Africa. Data on its biology and life history are very scarce despite its
