Boccardia proboscidea (Polychaete: Spionidae) from SW Atlantic: how far has the 5 invasion spread?
(Regional Euro-Asian Biological Invasions Centre, 2018-09-20)
Boccardia proboscidea, an exotic polychaete species has been introduced in a Southwestern Atlantic Ocean coastal area of Argentina (Mar del Plata; Province of Buenos Aires). This polychaete proved to be a threat to local ...
Effects of nutrient enrichment and grazing by an invasive filter feeder on phytoplankton biomass in a South West Atlantic coastal lagoon
(Springer, 2018-08)
Invasive species can exert strong effects on structure and function of marine ecosystem. In estuaries, nutrient enhancement due to anthropogenic activities can increase microalgal biomass but invading filter-feeders can ...
Influence of complexity and habitat heterogeneity on macrofaunal assemblages provided by an invasive ecosystem engineer in Mar Chiquita coastal lagoon
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-11)
Invasive ecosystem engineers change habitat attributes and species abundance, affecting the structure of invaded communities. In the Mar Chiquita coastal lagoon (37° 40′S, 57° 23°W), the invasive reef-building polychaete ...
Effect of an invasive filter-feeder on the zooplankton assemblage in a coastal lagoon
(Cambridge University Press, 2016-09-28)
Depletion of phytoplankton biomass by the introduced reef-forming polychaete Ficopomatus enigmaticus has previously been observed in the Mar Chiquita lagoon (37°40′S 57°23′W; Argentina), but the effect of polychaetes on ...
Effects of an invasive reef-builder polychaete on biomass and composition of estuarine macroalgae assemblages.
(Springer, 2012-06)
Invasive species can transform ecological communities. Their profound effects may alter the sources and pathways of primary production. We investigated the effects of the reef forming polychaete Ficopomatus enigmaticus ...
Morphology and molecular systematic of marine gregarines (Apicomplexa) from Southwestern Atlantic spionid polychaetes
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2018-11)
Gregarines are a common group of parasites that infect the intestines of marine invertebrates, and particularly polychaetes. Here, we describe for the first time four gregarine species that inhabit the intestines of three ...
Effects of macroalgae on the recruitment, growth, and body condition of an invasive reef forming polychaete in a south-western Atlantic coastal lagoon
(Elsevier Science, 2014-01-23)
Species interactions could mediate species invasive processes. In Mar Chiquita coastal lagoon (37° 40′S, 57° 23´W, Argentine), the invasive reef building polychaete Ficopomatus enigmaticus (Fauvel 1923) enhances the biomass ...
Macroalgae ecosystem engineering effects mediated by an invasive reef-builder polychaete in a Southwestern Atlantic coastal lagoon
(Elsevier Science, 2021-01)
Macroalgae in Mar Chiquita coastal lagoon (37◦ 40′ S, 57◦ 23′ W, Argentina) settle on small-hard substrates on sediments and complex reef-like structures with tubes and crevices of the invader polychaete Ficopomatus ...
Reproductive traits of a nonindigenous amphipod associated with alternative habitat structures in presence of an invasive ecosystem-engineering polychaete
(Springer, 2021-09)
Understanding reproductive traits of invasive species and their modulation by different invaded habitats is crucial for monitoring invasive processes. The invasive ecosystem engineers (IEE) affect their habitat structure, ...
