North American parasitic copepods belonging to the family Dichelesthiidae

Reproductive cycles of dominant calanoid copepods in the North Sea

The seasonal cycles of reproduction of the dominant copepods Acartia clausi, Temora longicornis, Centropages hamatus, C. typicus and Pseudocalanus spp. were studied at Helgoland Roads, southern North Sea. Egg production rate, clutch size, number of spawning females and prosome length were compared with temperature and phytoplankton concentration. Female A. clausi, T. longicornis and Pseudocalan...

The ( North ) American English

A new genus and family of copepods (Crustacea: Copepoda) parasitic on polychaetes of the genus Jasmineira Langerhans, 1880 (family Sabellidae) in the northeastern Atlantic.

A new genus and species of copepod, Jasmineiricola mackiei n. gen. et n. sp., parasitic on at least three species of the sabellid polychaete genus Jasmineira Langerhans, 1880 is described. The adult female is mesoparasitic, living with part of its body (the endosoma) embedded within the host and part (the ectosoma) protruding through the host's body wall. The endosoma consists of a well defined...

The North American 701 Monitor

Although constrained by history, schedule, and hardware to triviality when compared to modem operating systems, the North American 701 Monitor was arguably the first operating system to be in operation. Installed in December 1955, the North American 701 Monitor was developed as a prototype monitor to extract more utilization from overburdened IBM 701'8 and pilot test the operating system concep...
