The Benthos of a Portion of the Sacramento River (San Francisco Bay Estuary) during a Dry Year

Biological Invasions and Cryptogenic Species

“…None of these include such prevalent and ecologically important groups as amphipods, isopods, free-living copepods, errant polychaetes, cheilostome bryozoans, ascidians, protozoans, macroalgae or phytoplankton, all of which taxa are well represented by "native" species inChesapeake Bay, and all of which groups are well recognized as including invading taxa in many estuaries t Data sources: Carlton 1979, Carlton et a!. 1990, Cohen and Carlton 1995 :j: Data sources: Light 1978, Silva 1979, Carlton 1979a, Siegfried et al 1980, Cloern eta!. 1985, Nichols and Thompson 1985, Hand and Ohlinger 1994, Cohen and Carlton 1995 around the world.…”

The benthic macroinvertebrate community in a coastal sand dune lake relative to habitat and changing lake levels

“…The abundance of Corophium in habitat B ranged from 7800/m2 to 14600/m2 in October; the latter is fairly high for a natural population (Aldrich, 1961;McCarthy, 1973;Siegfried et al, 1980). When the lake level drops, competition for space may drive Corophium into less favorable habitats.…”

Comunidades de hidrozoários (Cnidaria) estuarinos do sudeste e sul do Brasil

“…Estudos sobre o bentos estuarino investigam, principalmente, padrões de distribuição relacionados à salinidade e aos tipos de substratos e sedimentos (e.g., Siegried et al 1980;Ellison & Farnsworth, 1992;Netto & Gallucci, 2003), bem como limites de concentração salina máxima e mínima que algumas espécies estuarinas toleram (e.g., Ladd, 1951;Gunter & Shell, 1958;Parker, 1959;Rhodes-Ondi & Turner, 2010;Fowler et al, 2011). Estudos sobre o zooplâncton estuarino enfocaram a composição faunística e suas relações com fatores bióticos e abióticos (e.g., Madhupratap, 1987;Lopes et al, 1998;Vieira et al, 2003Neves et al, 2010.…”
