Diatoma sinensis: a new diatom species (Bacillariophyta) found in the brackish Lake Qinghai, China
Lake Qinghai is an ancient brackish water lake in which several endemic diatom species have been discovered. In this study, a species of Diatoma is observed under light and scanni…
Two new Halamphora (Bacillariophyta) species from the marine coasts off Livingston Island, Antarctica
During a survey of the marine benthic diatom flora on the coasts off Livingston Island (South Shetland Islands, Maritime Antarctic Region), two Halamphora species that could not b…
Two new species of Navicula (Bacillariophyta) from Southeast Asia
We present light and scanning electron microscopical observations on two new species of Navicula Bory sensu stricto from Southeast Asia. Navicula winoniformis Chudaev, Glushchenko…
Ecological Biogeography of the Terrestrial Nematodes of Victoria Land, Antarctica
The terrestrial ecosystems of Victoria Land, Antarctica are characteristically simple in terms of biological diversity and ecological functioning. Nematodes are the most commonly …
Biodiversity of testate amoebae in Sphagnum bogs: the dataset from forest-steppe ecotone (Middle Volga Territory, Russi…
Testate amoebae are a polyphyletic group of unicellular eukaryotic organisms that are characterised by a rigid shell and inhabit mostly freshwater and terrestrial ecosystems. They…
Modicella guangxiensis (Mortierellomycota, Mortierellaceae), a new species from south-western karst areas of China
Modicella Kanouse (1936) is the only genus of Mortierellaceae known to produce macroscopic fruiting bodies in the form of small, whitish, round sporocarps. Specimens which belong …
Clarification of the taxonomic status of Acanthochitona discrepans (Brown, 1827) with new data for the North-East Atlan…
The genus Acanthochitona can be easily distinguished from other chitons by having eighteen tufts of bristles on the dorsal side of the densely spiculose girdle. In the North-East …
A metabarcode based (species) inventory of the northern Adriatic phytoplankton
The northern Adriatic is characterised as the coldest and most productive marine area of the Mediterranean, which is due to high nutrient levels introduced by river discharges, th…
Description and distribution of three morphotypes of the Eucyclops serrulatus group (Crustacea, Copepoda, Cyclopoida) f…
Examination of Eucyclops populations coming from Algerian water bodies and identified as Eucyclops cf. serrulatus showed three morphotypes, based on morphometric characters and mi…
Metagenomic analysis of Raphidiopsis raciborskii microbiome: beyond the individual
Raphidiopsis raciborskii is a toxic, invasive bacteria with a defined biogeographic pattern attributed to the generation of ecotypes subjected to local environmental filters and t…
Distribution of testate amoebae in bryophyte communities in São Miguel Island (Azores Archipelago)
Testate amoebae are a polyphyletic group of protists living preferentially in soils, freshwaters and wetlands. These Protozoa have worldwide distribution, but their presence and d…
Biodiversity between sand grains: Meiofauna composition across southern and western Sweden assessed by metabarcoding
The meiofauna is an important part of the marine ecosystem, but its composition and distribution patterns are relatively unexplored. Here we assessed the biodiversity and communit…
Trachelomonas bituricensis var. lotharingia M.L. Poucques 1952, a morphologically interesting, rare euglenoid new to th…
This report describes the discovery of the rare euglenoid taxon Trachelomonas bituricensis var. lotharingia in a small mesotrophic pond in the Czech Republic. Only limited data ar…
New species and records of ortholasmatine harvestmen from Mexico, Honduras, and the western United States (Opiliones, N…
The genus Trilasma Goodnight & Goodnight, 1942 is reinstated for Mexican ortholasmatines, and Cladolasma Suzuki, 1963 is reinstated for two species from Japan and Thailand, C. par…
NGS-based biodiversity and community structure analysis of meiofaunal eukaryotes in shell sand from Hållö island, Smöge…
Aim: The aim of this study was to assess the biodiversity and community structure of Swedish meiofaunal eukaryotes using metabarcoding. To validate the reliability of the metabarc…
On the morphology, biometry and biogeography of Lamtopyxis callistoma (Amoebozoa: Arcellinida)
The ultra-structure of the shell and the morphometric variability of soil inhabiting testate amoeba Lamtopyxis callistoma from Madagascar were studied by using light- and scanning…
Diverse responses to UV-B radiation and repair mechanisms of bacteria isolated from high-altitude aquatic environments
ABSTRACT Acinetobacter johnsonii A2 isolated from the natural community of Laguna Azul (Andean Mountains at 4,560 m above sea level), …
Impact of solar radiation on bacterioplankton in Laguna Vilama, a hypersaline Andean lake (4650 m)
Laguna Vilama is a hypersaline Lake located at 4660 m altitude in the northwest of Argentina high up in the Andean Puna. The impact of ultraviolet (UV) radiation on bacterioplankt…
Diversity of Bacteroidetes in high-altitude saline evaporitic basins in northern Chile
The phylum Bacteroidetes represents one of the most abundant bacterial groups of marine and freshwater bacterioplankton. We investigated the diversity of Bacteroidetes in water an…
