Effects of organic pollution in the distribution of annelid communities in the Estero de Urías coastal lagoon, Mexico

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2011
The Estero de Urías coastal lagoon is subjected to several anthropogenic activities and has been characterized since 1997 through the study of benthic fauna.

Eight years of monitoring aquatic Oligochaeta from the Baía and Ivinhema Rivers

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
The aim of this study was to analyze the factors that influence spatial and temporal variations of the Oligochaeta assemblage in the Baía and Ivinhema Rivers, located in the Upper Paraná River floodplain (Mato Grosso do Sul State, Brazil).

Removing invasive stream macrofauna shifts nontarget invertebrate mesofauna through facilitation

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Positive interactions among non‐native species can drive invasional meltdowns to the detriment of native biota. Here, we assessed whether targeted control of aquatic invasive species (AIS) can benefit native species by eliminating synergies among invaders.

Tributaries as richness source for Oligochaeta assemblage (Annelida) of Neotropical dammed river

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
Tributaries may serve as richness source for the river main channel and the zoobenthos community is a good tool to verify this kind of pattern. In this study, we aimed to characterize the benthic invertebrate assemblage in three tributaries associated to

Factors affecting intraspecific diet variation of ducklings: Niche partitioning in a heterogeneous landscape?

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 16, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Variability in resource use within populations of free‐ranging animals can influence demographic and evolutionary processes. Yet in many ecological systems, the extent of intra‐population variation in the resources that animals consume and the environmental factors that contribute to this variance remain poorly understood. For example, dietary

The Potential of Oligochaeta as Intermediate Host of Myxosporea Parasite in Common Carp (Cyprinus carpio Linnaeus)

open access: yesJurnal Akuakultur Indonesia, 2003
Three genera of oligochaeta, i.e. Branchiura sowerbyi, Limnodrillus sp. and Lumbriculus sp. were fed on spores of Myxobolus artus before predated to juvenile of Cyprinus carpio. Spores of myxosporean were found on the fish, which get Limnodrillus.

Experimental droughts in mesocosms reveal a gradient of tolerance in Alpine stream macroinvertebrates

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue S2, Page S352-S363, December 2025.
Abstract Prolonged droughts, driven by climate change and human pressures on water resources, are increasing in frequency and intensity, particularly impacting Alpine rivers. Benthic macroinvertebrates are one of the most important structural and functional components of Alpine lotic ecosystems.

Algunas consideraciones sobre los estudios actuales de la reproducción de los oligoquetos

open access: yesActa Zoológica Lilloana, 2020
El estado actual del problema de la reproducción entre los Oligochaeta se esboza aquí, con especial referencia al modo uniparental. Los métodos de exploración en esta esfera se amplían y se esboza tentativamente una clasificación eventual de las ...

Oligochaeta (Annelida, Clitellata) in lotic environments in the state of São Paulo, Brazil Oligochaeta (Annelida, Clitellata) em ambientes lóticos do estado de São Paulo, Brasil

open access: yesIheringia: Série Zoologia, 2006
Despite the importance of Oligochaeta to the dynamics of aquatic ecosystems and to studies of the biology of pollution, there is currently a dearth of information on this group's ecology in Brazil.

Fish predation cues induce drifting and emergence in an experimental stream mesocosm system

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue S2, Page S364-S376, December 2025.
Abstract Predator–prey interactions are important drivers of adaptation in aquatic communities, shaping the behavior of invertebrates with cascading effects on community dynamics. Behavioral responses, such as moving with the downstream current (drift) or altering the timing of emergence, are strategies that reduce the risk of predator encounters ...
