Studies on comparative population growth of some species of the rotifer Lecane (Rotifera).
We compared the population growth patterns of 5 species of the rotifer genus Lecane [(L. quadridentata (Ehrenberg, 1830), L. comuta (Muller, 1786), L. papuana (Murray, 1913), L. unguitata (Fadeev, 1925) and L. pyriformis (Daday, 1905)] ranging in adult average body size from 30 to 140 microm. All species were cultured under laboratory conditions for 25-30 days using the green alga Scenedesmus a...
متن کاملLong-Term Coexistence of Rotifer Cryptic Species
Despite their high morphological similarity, cryptic species often coexist in aquatic habitats presenting a challenge in the framework of niche differentiation theory and coexistence mechanisms. Here we use a rotifer species complex inhabiting highly unpredictable and fluctuating salt lakes to gain insights into the mechanisms involved in stable coexistence in cryptic species. We combined molec...
متن کاملThe Helvella lacunosa species complex in western North America: cryptic species, misapplied names and parasites.
Based on morphology, fungal species have been considered widespread and as a result names of species from Europe or eastern North America were applied to species in western North America. However, DNA sequences have shown that many western taxa are different from their European counterparts; one such case is presented here. Comparisons of ITS and LSU rDNA sequences from ectomycorrhizal root tip...
متن کاملSpecies Delimitation and Description of Mesocriconema nebraskense n. sp. (Nematoda: Criconematidae), a Morphologically Cryptic, Parthenogenetic Species from North American Grasslands.
Nematode surveys of North American grasslands conducted from 2010 to 2015 frequently recovered a species of criconematid nematode morphologically resembling Mesocriconema curvatum. These specimens were recovered from remnant native prairies in the central tallgrass ecoregion of North America, and not from surrounding agroecosystems. Historical records indicate that M. curvatum is a cosmopolitan...
متن کاملToxicity testing using esterase inhibition as a biomarker in three species of the genus Lecane (Rotifera).
We have developed an esterase inhibition test to investigate the effects of 10 toxicants, including six metals (cadmium, chromium, copper, lead, mercuric chloride, and titanium) and four organics (benzene, ethyl acetate, toluene, and vinyl acetate) in three species of the benthic rotifer genus Lecane (L. hamata, L. luna, and L. quadridentata). Metals affect esterase inhibition by an average val...
