Coastal fish assemblages and predation pressure in northern-central Chilean Lessonia trabeculata kelp forests and barren grounds [PDF]
Kelp forests are declining in many parts of the globe, which can lead to the spreading of barren grounds. Increased abundances of grazers, mainly due to reduction of their predators, are among the causes of this development. Here, we compared the species

Estabilidad temporal de las infracomunidades de parásitos en la borrachilla Scartichthys viridis (Valenciennes, 1836) (Pisces : Blenniidae) en la costa central de Chile Temporal stability in parasite infracommunities of the blenny Scartichthys viridis(Valenciennes, 1836) (Pisces: Blenniidae) on the central coast of Chile [PDF]
Se comparan las infracomunidades de parásitos de la borrachilla Scartichthys viridis (Pisces: Blenniidae) de tres muestras tomadas en un lapso de 17 meses, entre 1999 y 2001, desde pozas intermareales vecinas a Las Cruces (33°27' S, 71°37' O), Chile ...

Inter-population thermal variability and physiological response in the intertidal fish Scartichthys viridis (Blenniidae) [PDF]
Determinar las condiciones del ambiente que generan variabilidad fisiologica, representa un conocimiento basico para comprender el sentido de la respuesta de los animales a los cambios en su habitat. El pez costero Scartichthys viridis habita las pozas bajas del intermareal a lo largo de la costa chilena.

Parasite communities of Scartichthys viridis (Pisces: Blenniidae) from Central Chile: locality vs. host length [PDF]
Se describen y comparan las comunidades de parasitos en el pez blenido Scartichthys viridis de El Tabo y Las Cruces, dos localidades cercanas de Chile central. Catorce especies parasitas fueron encontradas, cuatro de ellas fueron persistentes a traves de las muestras.

The use of otoliths and larval abundance for studying the spatial ecology of the blenny Scartichthys viridis (Valenciennes, 1836) in coastal central Chile [PDF]
Numerosos estudios en ecologia marina se han enfocado en evaluar que determina la estructura espacial y variabilidad temporal de los organismos que habitan la zona costera e intermareal. Nuestros resultados sugieren que individuos de Scartichthys viridis, separados espacialmente por una escala mayor a los 200 km, deberian ser demograficamente ...

A new species of nematode, Pseudodelphis chilensis n. sp., is described. This parasite was found in muscles of the pectoral fins of a blenniid fish, Scartichthys viridis , from central Chile. The new species differs from the other 2 described (P. oligocotti Adamson and Roth, 1990 and P.

Two new protist species, Trypanoplasma ojedae sp. n. (Mastigophora: Kinetoplastida) and Trichodina lascrucensis sp. n. (Ciliophora: Peritrichida) in a blenniid fish, Scartichthys viridis, from the coast of Chile [PDF]
Two new protistan species were observed in a blenniid fish, Scartichthys viridis, inhabiting tide pools at Las Cruces, central Chile. Trypanoplasma ojedae sp. n. (Mastigophora: Kinetoplastida) in the blood is characterized by its small size (29.8 ± 5.0 x 5.1 +1.2 im), short anterior flagellum (4.9 ± 0.6 im), anterior located kinetoplast (2.4 ± 0.2) and

Monthly variation in parasite populations and communities, from the blenniid fish Scartichthys viridis, were assessed during two consecutive years in order to examine monthly and seasonal temporal patterns. A total of 969 S. viridis was collected from September 2006 to August 2008 in central Chile.
