In 2018 and 2019, quantitative aquatic macroinvertebrate samplings were carried out in the river network of Bükkösdi-víz (Mecsek Mountain). The identification 325,865 specimens originated from 40 sampling sites resulted occurrences 125 different species belonging to 12 higher taxa (Gastropoda – 9, Bivalvia 1, Hirudinea 4, Malacostraca 6, Ephemeroptera 16, Odonata 12, Plecoptera 3, Heteroptera 1...

The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity Crustacea Class Diversity Subclass (Malacostraca) in mangrove ecosystem Padadita Beach, East Sumba Regency. research method used quadratic transect and analyzed using a quantitative descriptive approach with index formula Shannon-Wiener. This sampling technique, namely purposive plot size 2 x meters placed perpendicular depth 200 27 plots...

Recent molecular analyses indicate that crustaceans and hexapods form a clade (Pancrustacea or Tetraconata), but relationships among its constituent lineages, including monophyly of crustaceans, are controversial. Our phylogenetic analysis of three protein-coding nuclear genes from 62 arthropods and lobopods (Onychophora and Tardigrada) demonstrates that Hexapoda is most closely related to the ...

The occurrence and distribution of pituitary adenylate cyclase-activating polypeptide (PACAP) are summarized in invertebrate species with special attention to annelids, mollusks, and arthropods in this review. Furthermore, the role of PACAP is highlighted in physiological and behavioral processes of oligochaete (Lumbricus), gastropods (Helix, Lymnaea), insect (Drosophila), as well as malacostra...
