Viability of subitaneous eggs of the copepod, Acartia tonsa (Dana), following exposure to various cryoprotectants and hypersaline water [PDF]
Subitaneous eggs were obtained from monocultures of the calanoid copepod Acartia tonsa (Dana), Gulf of Mexico strain. Eggs were exposed to methanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerine, and DMSO at 0.0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 5.0 M and ...

Zooplankton richness, abundance and biomass of two hypertrophic shallow lakes with different salinity [PDF]
The zooplankton of lakes is controlled by biological and physico-chemical parameters. Among the former, predation by fish can determine the replacement of large-sized species by small-sized ones and among the latter, salinity exerts negative effects on ...

Invertebrate communities in northern Lake Victoria, with reference to their potential for fishery production [PDF]
The zooplankton and macrobenthic communities of Lake Victoria were sampled by lift net and Ponar grab, respectively. The zooplankton comprised copepods and cladocerans, rotifers and aquatic insect larvae. Most taxa exhibited wide distribution in the lake,

Soil nematode communities in grasslands [PDF]
This thesis summarizes the results of five studies investigating the effect of plant species on soil nematode communities in grasslands. Nematodes (roundworms) are ubiquitous members of the soil fauna and have been much used as indicators of soil ...

The Desiccation of Rotifers [PDF]
THE general statement of ten found in text-books that "Adult rotifers can survive prolonged desiccation and resume active life when again placed in water," seems to have been mnade without sufficient warrant. While working with the rotifer, Asplancha briiyltizvell ii, my attention was repeatedly called to the fact that when the water became ...
