Cryptofauna Associated With the Epilithic Algal Matrix on Subtropical Brazilian Reefs

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The epilithic algal matrix (EAM) plays a significant role in the benthic cover of reefs worldwide. In Brazil, the EAM accounts for a substantial proportion of the benthos, and its associated fauna contributes to the majority of the reef's metazoan biodiversity and is an important link into the trophic chain, connecting the production performed

Threatened gastropods under the evolutionary genetic species concept: Redescription and new species of the genus Aylacostoma (Gastropoda: Thiaridae) from High Paraná River (Argentina-Paraguay) [PDF]

, 2014
The genus Aylacostoma Spix, 1827, is mainly endemic to South America, and comprises about 30 nominal species, most of which were described based solely on conchological features following the typological approaches of most of the 19th and the mid-20th ...

Detection and succession properties of forested vernal pools with eDNA metabarcoding

Ecological Solutions and Evidence, Volume 7, Issue 1, January–March 2026.
We examined the capacity of environmental DNA metabarcoding for studying biodiversity of forested vernal pools, using multiple assays to investigate different eukaryotic communities over space and time. Our results suggest that metabarcoding can serve as a complementary tool for ‘scaling up’ vernal pool biodiversity monitoring, illuminating ecological ...

Hurdles in investigating UVB damage in the putative ancient asexual Darwinula stevensoni (Ostracoda, Crustacea) [PDF]

, 2013
Ostracoda or mussel-shrimps are small, bivalved Crustacea. Because of their excellent fossil record and their broad variety of reproductive modes, ostracods are of great interest as a model group in ecological and evolutionary research.

New age‐estimate data and implications for marine isotope stage 7 and 5e sea levels in Fenland, eastern England

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 36-60, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Only one last interglacial relative sea‐level indicator point (SLIP) has been recognised for Fenland, eastern England, and the nearest penultimate interglacial SLIP is located on the north Norfolk coast. Such limited information restricts the regional input to, and hence the relevance of, global reconstructions of late Middle and Late ...

Zooplankton diversity in highly urbanized ponds: The role of road salt is not reflected by watershed impervious cover

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Urban ecosystems are structured by multiple anthropogenic stressors, yet despite the increasing extent and rate of urbanization worldwide, the ecological consequences of excessive road salt application and other urban phenomena remain poorly resolved.

Holocene Bythocytheridae (Ostracoda: Podocopida) from Southwestern Atlantic deep-sea sediments off Brazil. Part 1: tribes Bythocytherini Sars, 1926 and Jonesini Schornikov, 1981 [PDF]

Nauplius
The Bythocytheridae Sars, 1866 is one of the oldest families of cytheroidean Ostracoda, with a fossil record dating back to the Silurian. During the Cenozoic this family became one of the main constituents of the deep-sea ostracod faunas, with some taxa ...

Search for Bioindicators of Pollution in the Guanabara Bay: Integrations of Ecologic Patterns [PDF]

Anuário do Instituto de Geociências, 2003
Guanabara Bay, since its discovery, has largely changed with the human occupation causing large amounts of deposited sediment and waste, as well as domestic and industry sewage. Surface sediment was analysed for foraminifera and ostracoda distribution,

Ostracoda

, 2007
Los ostrácodos constituyen una clase de crustáceos de hábitos acuáticos y morfológicamente muy conservadores, fácilmente identificables por su pequeña talla y la presencia de un exoesqueleto o caparazón bivalvo, de naturaleza quitinoso-calcárea, que cubre completamente las partes blandas. El tamaño de un ostrácodo adulto oscila entre los 0,15 y los 2-3
