Over 34 000 specimens of marine gammaridean amphipods were collected from 34 sites of varying wave exposure in the intertidal/shallow subtidal zones of Mauritius (19°59′-20°32′S 57°18′57°47′E, Indian ...

Researchers have identified two novel marine amphipod species from Chilika and the Gulf of Khambhat. Named Grandidierella geetanjalae and Grandidierella khambhatensis, these tiny crustaceans play a ...

Carrion (dead oyster) traps were deployed by submersible at depths of 194-212 m on sandy and rocky ridge areas off South Carolina in August 1982 and September 1983. Concurrent benthic sampling by ...

Pteropods or sea snails, also called sea angels, produce chemical deterrents to ward off predators, and some species of amphipods take advantage of this by carrying pteropods piggyback to gain ...

Scientists used DNA metabarcoding to show for the first time that jellyfish are an important food for amphipods during the Arctic polar night in waters off Svalbard, at a time of year when other food ...

March 6 (UPI) --Plastics are being ingested by amphipods living in one of the deepest places on Earth, the Pacific Ocean's Mariana Trench. Amphipods, sometimes called hoppers, are tiny shrimp-like ...

In the dark and cold of the months-long polar night, food resources are limited. Some groups of marine organisms in the polar regions overcome this challenge by going into a metabolic resting state in ...

A common marine crustacean has shown researchers that it's all set to beat climate change - the males will get more attractive to the females, with a resulting population explosion. The University of ...
