Fossil Crustaceans as Parasites and Hosts.
Numerous crustacean lineages have independently moved into parasitism as a mode of life. In modern marine ecosystems, parasitic crustaceans use representatives from many metazoan phyla as hosts. Crustaceans also serve as hosts to a rich diversity of parasites, including other crustaceans. Here, we show that the fossil record of such parasitic interactions is sparse, with only 11 examples, one d...
متن کاملAnatomy and physiology of digestive tract of Crustaceans Decapods reared in aquaculture
— The digestive tract of crustacea is complex. It is composed of a short oesophagum, a stomach with two bags, and internal wall with appendags specialized in grinding of feeds. These hard mastication pieces represent the gastric mill. Setae,. filters included in the stomach structure allow the separation between food particles and liquid compounds. Those one are coming over through filters and ...
متن کاملSynopsis of fossil decapod crustaceans from Slovakia (Western Carpathians)
In the past only very few works dealt with fossil decapod crustaceans from Slovakia. The systematic research of this group has never been fully conducted there. This contribution provides a short review of all known Mesozoic and Cenozoic fossil decapod occurrences. So far, most of the taxa were described from the Eocene and Miocene strata.
متن کاملA general methodology for collecting and preserving xystodesmid and other large millipedes for biodiversity research
BACKGROUND With an estimated 80% of species remaining undescribed (but see Brewer et al. 2012), millipede taxonomy offers the opportunity to discover new species and explore biodiversity. The lack of basic alpha taxonomic information regarding millipedes belies their significant ecological role and potential as premier models in ecological and evolutionary studies. The group possesses many fasc...
متن کاملWidespread Wolbachia infection in terrestrial isopods and other crustaceans
Wolbachia bacteria are obligate intracellular alpha-Proteobacteria of arthropods and nematodes. Although widespread among isopod crustaceans, they have seldom been found in non-isopod crustacean species. Here, we report Wolbachia infection in fourteen new crustacean species. Our results extend the range of Wolbachia infections in terrestrial isopods and amphipods (class Malacostraca). We report...
