Enriched calanoid copepods Acartia tonsa (Dana, 1849) enhances growth, survival, biochemical composition and morphological development during larval first feeding of the orchid dottyback Pseudochromis ...

Scientists on an expedition to the South Sandwich Islands near Antarctica have recorded horrifying videos of parasitic copepods feasting on the head of a deep sea rattail fish.

Copepods that catch prey using feeding currents beat their cephalic appendages to generate flow entrainment, and detect the presence of nearby prey through the mechanoreceptional setae on the ...

Results This is the first record of peritrichous epibiont ciliates Epistylis sp. colonizing calanoid copepods in Amazonian ecosystems (Lake Batata, Pará, Brazil). We recorded epibiont ciliates in the ...

The studies of calanoid copepod Limnocalanus macrurus feeding rates and mating related to vertical migration were conducted in October 2005 in the Bothnian Sea.

ABSTRACT The calanoid copepod family Epacteriscidae is one of the most representative cave-dwelling copepods worldwide, especially in the Caribbean region. We provide new records of two epacteriscid ...

A new species of stygobiont copepod (Stygocyclopia badinoi sp.nov.) is described from the anchialine environment of Zinzulùsa cave (Castro, Italy). It is the first Pseudocyclopiidae (Copepoda, ...

Moreover, the zooplankton biomass differed between the reservoirs, which confirms our second hypothesis that cyanobacteria biomass negatively influence the Calanoida copepods, while the chlorophytes ...

Eighty-one specimens referring to 16 species of 14 calanoid genera and 11 families of calanoid copepods were first identified through morphological analysis. For species with unequivocal morphological ...

“Since I knew that the type of copepod they prefer has declined in offshore areas of Lake Michigan, I wanted to see what zooplankton was available in the near-shore beach environment (<1m), where ...

Two species of the calanoid copepod genus Bestiolina occurred in estuarine/coastal waters of the Nansei Islands, southernmost Japan. One of them is described herein as Bestiolina okinawae sp. nov., ...
