Most would rather discuss a new weapon system or innovative green technology that allows Sailors and Marines to increase operational tempo or achieve more efficient fuel consumption. What most people don’t realize is that biofouling may actually represent ...
متن کاملRevision of the genus Bosmina Baird, 1845 (Cladocera: Bosminidae), based on evidence from male morphological characters and molecular phylogenies
The systematics of the freshwater crustacean genus Bosmina Baird, 1845 (Anomopoda: Bosminidae) is notoriously confused. Part of the problem stems from a lack of characters in this cyclic parthenogen. We aimed to remedy this problem by scoring male morphological characters (previously described in just a few species), and by estimating molecular phylogenies. More specifically, the goals of this ...
