Epibiont algae on planktic microcrustaceans from a subtropical shallow lake (Argentina)
(Schweizerbart Science Publishers, 2008-08)
Studies on taxonomy and seasonal variations of density and biomass were carried out over a year on epibiont algae on planktic microcrustaceans from a subtropical shallow lake (Corrientes, Argentina). Four taxa, 3 Chlorophyta ...
Vulnerability of microcrustaceans to predation by the invasive filter-feeding mussel Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker)
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-11)
Limnoperna fortunei is an Asian mussel introduced to South America around 1990. One of the most important impacts of this invader is probably its grazing on the plankton. In this study we evaluate the vulnerability of ...
Predation on microcrustaceans in evidence: the role of chaoborid larvae and fish in two shallow and small Neotropical reservoirs
(Sociedade Brasileira de Carcinologia, 2012-07-01)
This study was focused on the predation upon microcrustaceans by an invertebrate predator (chaoborid larvae), and vertebrate predators (fish), in two small reservoirs in southeastern Brazil, with and without macrophytes, ...

Microcrustaceans escape behavior as an early bioindicator of copper, chromium and endosulfan toxicity
(Springer, 2012-03)
The purpose of this work was to experimentally analyze the impact of copper, chromium and a commercial pesticide with endosulfan on the escape behavior of two copepods (Notodiaptomus conifer, Argyrodiaptomus falcifer) and ...
Could artificial plant beds favour microcrustaceans during biomanipulation of eutrophic shallow lakes?
(Springer, 2017-11)
Introduction of artificial plants may facilitate the transition from a turbid to a clear-water state in shallow lakes, particularly when plant establishment is delayed. We investigated the usefulness of artificial plants ...
Increases in microcrustaceans (Cladocera and Copepoda) associated with phytoplankton peaks in tropical reservoirs
(Int Soc Tropical Ecology, 2016-09-01)
We studied the interactions between microcrustaceans and phytoplankton in storage and run-of-river tropical cascade reservoirs in Brazil by performing comparisons on a spatial-temporal scale and non-parametric correlations. ...

Functional groups of microcrustaceans along a horizontal gradient in a Neotropical lake colonized by macrophytes
(2021-03-01)
Here we analysed the taxonomic and functional diversity of microcrustaceans along a horizontal gradient from the littoral to pelagic zones of a marginal lake. We hypothesized that in the littoral zone, occupied by high ...
