Comparative toxicity of antifouling compounds on the development of sea urchin
(Springer, 2011-11-01)
In the present study, embryotoxicity experiments using the sea urchin Lytechinus variegatus were carried out to better clarify the ecotoxicological effects of tributyltin (TBT) and triphenyltin (TPT) (the recently banned ...

Carrying eggs in a semi-terrestrial environment: Physiological responses to water deprivation of mothers and embryos of the tree-climbing crab Aratus pisonii
(2021-07-01)
In semi-terrestrial crustaceans, mothers and the carried embryos form a unit. The ideal conditions for embryonic development place a sustained demand on the mothers' energy budget. A particular challenge for this unit is ...
Carryover effects from embryos on larval performance in the freshwater shrimp Palaemon argentinus (Crustacea: Decapoda: Palaemonidae)
(Int Science Services/Balaban Publishers, 2019-10)
Our understanding of physiological carryover effects from embryos on post-hatching performance is still limited for aquatic organisms that brood embryos externally. We examined the effects of embryonic care experience ...
Effects of temperature and salinity on larval survival and development in the invasive shrimp Palaemon macrodactylus (Caridea: Palaemonidae) along the reproductive season
(Elsevier Science, 2015-05)
The invasive shrimp Palaemon macrodactylus is associated mainly with brackish waters. Previous studies raised the question if tolerance to low salinities differs between larvae and adults. To answer this question, the ...
Stage dependent toxicity of Bisphenol A on Rhinella arenarum (Anura, Bufonidae) embryos and larvae
(Wiley, 2011-11)
The acute and chronic toxicity of bisphenol A (BPA) was evaluated on the common South American toad Rhinella arenarum embryos and larvae by means of continuous and pulse exposure treatments. Embryos were treated continuously ...
Microscale Toxicity Identification Evaluation (TIE) for interstitial water of estuarine sediments affected by multiple sources of pollution
(2022-02-01)
Estuaries in the world are affected by different contamination sources related to urbanisation and port/industrial activities. Identifying the substances responsible for the environmental toxicity in estuaries is challenging ...
Leachate from microplastics impairs larval development in brown mussels
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2016)
Microplastic debris is a pervasive type of contaminant in marine ecosystems, being considered a major threat to marine biota. One of the problems of microplastics is that they can adsorb contaminants in extremely high ...
Chemically induced plasticity in early life history of Palaemon argentinus: Are chemical alarm cues conserved within palaemonid shrimps?
(Company of Biologists, 2019-06)
Most aquatic animals use infochemicals from both conspecifics and heterospecifics to assess local predation risks and enhance predator detection. Released substances from injured conspecifics and other species (chemical ...
