Distribution of the Invasive Caprellid Caprellascaura (Crustacea: Amphipoda) in Cádiz Marina, Southern Spain: Implications for its Dispersal
(Universidade de Vigo * Servizo de Publicacions, 2016)
The invasive caprellid Caprella scaura Templeton, 1836 is rapidly spreading along marinas of Southern Spain, becoming one of the dominant species of the macrofoulers associated to bryozoans and hydroids of communities in ...

Loss of largest and oldest individuals of the Montpellier snake correlates with recent warming in the southeastern Iberian Peninsula
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
The effects of climate change on organisms are now being extensively studied in many different taxa. However, the variation in body size, usually shrinkage in response to increasing temperature, has received little attention ...

Shallow water caprellids (Crustacea: Amphipoda) of Azores and Madeira
(2015)
The species composition and vertical distribution of caprellids associated to hard bottoms (mainly hydroids and algae) were studied from 0 to 41 m deep in Azores and Madeira. The highest caprellid densities were measured ...

Crustacean amphipods from marsh ponds: a nutritious feed resource with potential for application in Integrated Multi-Trophic Aquaculture
(PeerJ, 2018)
Coastal protection, nutrient cycling, erosion control, water purification, and carbon sequestration are ecosystem services provided by salt marshes. Additionally, salt ponds offer coastal breeding and a nursery habitat for ...

Spatio-temporal macrofaunal assemblages associated with the endangered orange coral Astroides calycularis (Scleractinia: Dendrophylliidae)
(Inter-Research, 2014-07-23)
The orange coral Astroides calycularis is internationally protected due to its narrow distribution, its sensitivity to environmental changes and anthropogenic disturbance. Spatio-temporal macrofaunal assemblages associated ...

Diets of peracarid crustaceans associated with orange coral Astroydes calycularis in southern Spain
(Hellenic Centre for Marine Research, 2016)
The endangered and Mediterranean endemic orange coral ( Astroides calycularis ) hosts an important macrofaunal assemblage. The gut contents of the main peracarids associated with the orange coral were analysed. In total ...

Rainfall at African wintering grounds predicts age-specific probability of haemosporidian infection in a migratory passerine bird
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2019-10-01)
In migratory species breeding in temperate zones and wintering in tropical areas, the prevalence of blood parasites may be affected by migratory strategies and winter habitat choice. We explored whether African winter ...

Biodiversity and distribution of macroinfauna assemblages on sandy beaches along the Gulf of Cadiz (SW Spain)
(Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas (CSIC) * Departamento de Publicaciones, 2015)
In the current study, the macroinfauna communities inhabiting 12 sandy beaches along the Spanish coast of the Gulf of Cadiz were describe in order to characterize their unexplored biodiversity, their zonation patterns and ...

Age-dependent carry-over effects in a long-distance migratory bird
(Nature, 2019)
Migratory birds usually respond to climate change by modifying breeding and/or wintering areas, as well as by reproducing earlier. In addition, changes in winter habitat use or breeding phenology could have important ...

Sertularia marginata (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa) in the Mediterranean: an alien species in expansion?
(Hellenic Centre for Marine Research (HCMR), 2013)
Mature and dense populations of the tropical hydroid species Sertulariamarginata were detected in the Alboran Sea (Western Mediterranean) and in the Atlantic coast of the Strait of Gibraltar. Until now, it had only been ...
