1. 1. The respiration rates of three species of cirolanid isopods found on exposed sandy beaches of the west coast of South Africa were measured. 2. 2. These isopods occupied different intertidal zones and their respiratory metabolisms differed accordingly. 3. 3. The activity potential of ...
Composition and spatial distribution of organic and inorganic materials within the cuticle of isopods vary between species. These variations are related to... S Hild,F Neues,Nada nidari,... - 《Journal of Structural Biology》 被引量: 140发表: 2009年 Solid state NMR studies of molecular recogn...
Short-term effects of neuroactive pharmaceutical drugs on a fish species: Biochemical and behavioural effects - ScienceDirect three anticonvulsant drugs commonly found in the environment (diazepam, carbamazepine, and phenytoin) was evaluated in Lepomis gibbosus (pumpkinseed sunfish)...

Several species of ecosystem engineers inhabiting coastal environments have been reported structuring different kinds of communities. The magnitude of this influence often depends on the habitat complexity introduced by the engineers. It is commonly accepted that an increase in habitat complexity will result...

Armases consumes a mixed diet because several factors (prey physical defenses, avoidance behavior of prey, growth benefits of a mixed diet) favor omnivory over a specialized diet. Similar factors may promote minor amounts of "omnivory" by species generally considered to be herbivores, frugivores, ...
I guess it's been almost 21 days since my last blog post, since the one before this was my original post in this series! lol Anywho... I have some interesting results to share from my Tiny Tub 4-Worm Cocoon Production experiment! Just to quickly review -
Having the choice among the litter of three different species [maple ( Acer pseudoplatanus ), beech ( Fagus sylvatica ) and oak ( Quercus robur )] grown at either ambient or elevated CO 2 , isopods preferred maple to beech when all the litter was produced under elevated CO 2 . This ...
In the present study, the food preferences in two detritivores, the common woodlouse (Oniscus asellus) and the earthworm (Lumbricus rubellus) over the leaf litter of four common tree species: common black alder (Alnus glutinosa), silver birch (Betula pendula), small-leaved linden...
We tested whether the conflict varied with client species (and the quality of its mucus) and with the presence of blood in the gnathiids. First, we offered cleaners the choice between mucus of the parrotfish and that of the snapper, Lutjanus fulviflamma. When offered equal amounts of ...
