A Checklist of Turkish Rotifers
In a book chapter containing the first checklist and distribution of Turkish rotifers, published in 1999, were listed 167 taxa. The second checklist, published in 2004, reported 229 rotifer taxa in Turkey. During the 7 years since this checklist process, many studies have been carried out and we have prepared a new checklist of Turkish rotifers in the ...

Potential Drivers of Successful Biocontrol: A Perspective on Parasitoids
Parasitoids are central to classical biological control, yet predicting their long‐term effectiveness post release remains challenging. In Aotearoa New Zealand, three Microctonus (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) species have been used against pest weevils, but key aspects of their biology remain poorly understood.

Rotifers perform key functions in aquatic food webs and respond to environmental changes, thus providing sensitive indicators of water quality. However, rotifers are small, highly diverse, and difficult to identify for those lacking expertise. Monogononta are the largest taxonomic class of rotifers with over 1500 species described globally, and around ...

ABSTRACT Saithe (Pollachius virens) is a semipelagic North Atlantic species supporting an important fishery. In the North Sea, saithe spawn east of the Shetland Islands, with larvae recruiting to coastal areas. Understanding the interaction between abiotic and biotic factors influencing larval dispersal is crucial for assessing their population ...

Disentangling the Components Shaping Aquatic Richness Over Spatial Scales in Extreme Climatic Events
ABSTRACT Species richness in a region can be partitioned into three components: (1) spatial aggregation of individuals, (2) variation in total individual density and (3) species abundance distribution (SAD). However, it remains unclear how the influence of these components on richness changes under extreme climatic events.
