Collecting and Preserving Marine and Freshwater Isopoda (Crustacea: Peracarida) [PDF]
Biodiversity Data Journal, 2015 Isopoda are the most diverse Crustacea. In order to encourage the study of isopod crustaceans and their use in biodiversity studies, systematics, ecology, physiology and more, one needs to know who the isopods are and where to find them. This is a short “how to” guide focusing on the free-living marine and freshwater isopods: where they live ...

Biogeography of Crustacea and Mollusca of the Subantarctic and Antarctic regions
Scientia Marina, 1999 The Joint Magellan Victor Hensen Campaign in 1994 focused on the biogeographic relationships of the Antarctic and Magellan fauna. The Peracarida and Mollusca sampled at 18 stations in the Beagle Channel by means of an epibenthic sledge were compared with

Checklist and new records of Lophogastrida (Malacostraca, Peracarida) in Chilean waters
Nauplius, 2023 Specimens of lophogastrids were collected off Chile, including four first records: Ceratolepis hamata G.O. Sars, 1883 in the vicinity of Easter Island, Eucopia unguiculata (Willemoës-Suhm, 1875) the Juan Fernández Archipelago, Gnathophausia zoea ...

Crab‐associated amphipods from the Falkland Islands (Crustacea, Peracarida) [PDF]
Journal of Natural History, 2005 Four species of associated amphipods were collected from the lithodid crab Paralomis granulosa in the Falkland Islands: Jassa kjetilanna n. sp. (Ischyroceridae), Gammaropsis monodi (Schellenberg, 1931) (Photidae), Aora karibu n. sp. (Aoridae), and Paramoera falklandica n. sp. (Eusiridae s.l.). The Gammaropsis was also found on the majid crab Eurypodius

Freshwater Biology, Volume 70, Issue 2, February 2025.ABSTRACT Allochthonous organic matter is an essential resource of aquatic food webs, and freshwater amphipods, particularly species of the genus Gammarus, play a significant role in leaf litter decomposition. However, this important ecological function may be affected by the invasion of alien amphipods such as Dikerogammarus villosus, which has been ...

Molecular Phylogeny and Biogeography of the Genus Pseudomma (Peracarida: Mysida) [PDF]
Journal of Crustacean Biology, 2004 Abstract We used DNA sequences from 18S rDNA (808 bp) and COI mtDNA (599 bp) to infer evolutionary history of northern groups of the deep-sea mysid genus Pseudomma. The V4–V7 regions of 18S show an average of 1.31% sequence divergence between species.

A checklist of isopods (Crustacea: Isopoda) in Slovenia
Natura Sloveniae, 2023 Isopods are a diverse peracarid crustacean group with marine, freshwater and terrestrial representatives. Isopod species lists were typically prepared according to different habitats, which was true also for Slovenia. Here, we prepared the first unified

Marked Variability in Distance‐Decay Patterns Suggests Contrasting Dispersal Ability in Abyssal Taxa
Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2025.ABSTRACT Aim We assess the role of spatial distance and depth difference in shaping beta diversity patterns across abyssal seascape regions. We measured the decrease of faunistic similarity across the northeast Pacific seafloor, to test whether species turnover rates differ between deep and shallow‐abyssal biogeographical provinces and whether these ...

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 11, November 2024.ABSTRACT Hydrothermal vents are biodiversity hotspots on the deep seafloor powered by chemosynthetic primary production, inhabited by a specially adapted fauna whose composition varies between regions. Sumisu Caldera, located approximately 500 km south of Tokyo, hosts a hot vent with an unusual species composition among the Izu–Ogasawara Arc sites and ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 9, Issue 24, Page 14167-14204, December 2019., 2019 We utilize a very large dataset of Northwest Atlantic Ocean peracarid crustacean assemblages as a case study to investigate the environmental drivers of deep‐seafloor macrofaunal biodiversity. We investigate biodiversity from a phylogenetic, functional, and taxonomic perspective, and find food availability, physical disturbance (bottom trawling ...
