ECOLOGICAL AND ZOOGEOGRAPHICAL ASSESSMENT OF BIODIVERSITY ОF THE CASPIAN SEA
For the first time given the ecological and zoogeographical assessment of biological diversity of the Caspian sea, which allow to predict the processes occurring in bottom ecosystems, and to assess the possible consequences, caused by both natural ...

ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish and other forage species are patchily distributed over space and time, resulting in variable foraging conditions experienced by their predators. The high‐resolution data necessary to understand the spatiotemporal structure of forage communities are challenging to collect with expensive fishery‐independent surveys, meaning ...

Habitat structure as an alternative explanation for body‐size patterns in the deep sea
Patterns in body size are important to study as the size of an organism correlates with many biological traits of the organism. Changes in the size distribution of a community can be indicative of environmental change and/or anthropogenic impacts.

Control of Polychaetes by Dipping Infected Pearl Oyster on Different Salinity
Dip treatment on pearl oysters (Pinctada maxima) was conducted in different concentrations of saline water to eliminate boring polychaetes. Results shows that polychaetes leave the oysters which treated on saline water at 0 ppt, 45 ppt, and 60 ppt as ...

Polychaete chaetae: Function, fossils, and phylogeny [PDF]
In this article we review the phylogenetic distribution of major chaetal types within the Polychaeta, discuss what has been demonstrated about chaetal function in modern worms, and examine what is known about the evolution of chaete through the fossil record.

Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

18S rDNA sequencing data of benthic polychaetes from the Eastern Arabian Sea
The limited DNA sequence data of the polychaetes species are available from the Eastern Arabian Sea. We have sequenced 18S rDNA gene from 54 polychaetes species and 37 species identified up to the species level.

Molluscs from a shallow-water whale-fall and their affinities with adjacent benthic communities on the Swedish west coast [PDF]
We conducted a species-level study of molluscs associated with a 5-m long carcass of a minke whale at a depth of 125 m in the Kosterfjord (North Sea, Sweden).
