First description of the serotonergic nervous system in a bdelloid rotifer: Macrotrachela quadricornifera Milne 1886 (Philodinidae) [PDF]
Zoologischer Anzeiger - A Journal of Comparative Zoology, 2009 Abstract Class Bdelloidea of phylum Rotifera comprises aquatic microinvertebrates that are known for both obligate parthenogenesis and for resisting desiccation through a dormant reversible state. In the frame of an investigation about the role of the nervous system in controlling life cycle, reproduction and dormancy, we describe the serotonergic ...

Diversity and Species Composition of Microbiota Associated with Mosquito Breeding Habitats: A Study from Kurunegala District in Sri Lanka. [PDF]
Biomed Res Int, 2019 The pool of microbiota associated with mosquito breeding habitats varies with the habitat type and its characteristic features. The pool of microbiota in a given mosquito breeding habitat can include free living, symbiotic, noncompetitive, parasitic, predatory, and toxin producing species.

Fine structure of the retrocerebral organ in the rotifer Trichocerca similis (Monogononta)
Invertebrate Biology, Volume 142, Issue 1, March 2023., 2023 Abstract The retrocerebral organ (RCO) is a complex glandular system that is widely distributed across species of phylum Rotifera (sensu stricto). This system is hypothesized to secrete mucus that aids in benthic locomotion, adhesion, and/or reproduction.

Environmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 6, Page 1250-1264, November 2022., 2022 We analyzed water sample metagenomes to estimate zooplankton diversity in 22 freshwater lakes across eastern Canada. We tested the coherence of data based on morphologically identified zooplankton taxa and molecular genetic data derived from shotgun sequencing of environmental DNA collected at the same time.

Epizoic rotifers (Rotifera: Monogononta, Bdelloidea) from the gill chambers of Potamon fluviatile (Herbst, 1785) [PDF]
, 2004 We describe some rare epizoic rotifers found on Potamon fluviatile (Herbst, 1785) from Italy. Three species are discussed: Lecane branchicola (Piovanelli, 1903) (Monogononta, Lecanidae; new synonym: L.

Revista de Biología Tropical, 2019 Cadmium is a toxic metal for zooplankton that produces deformations. Therefore, we used two native zooplankton species from Quintana Roo, Mexico, to obtain data regarding cadmium toxicity including the threshold concentration for observable morphological alterations and the percentage of organisms with morphological alterations at the exposure ...
