Biodiversity of brachyuran crabs (Crustacea: Decapoda) from non-consolidated
sublittoral bottom on the northern coast of Sao Paulo State, Brazil.
Factors controlling marine and estuarine
sublittoral macrofauna.
A New Species of Marine Amphipod (Gammaridea: Ampeliscidae) from the
Sublittoral of Southern California.
The 10 species selected for the present study included forms from the rocky intertidal,
sublittoral forms, obligatory epibiotic forms (on marine sponges and corals), and a parasitic barnacle.
danae are performed in estuaries, this study sampled these individuals in the
sublittoral zone, in order to investigate the differential occupancy by adults at different gonadal stages, the reproductive periodicity, and the sexual maturity of males and females, which are still unknown on this part of the coast.
The influences of bathymetry and flow regime upon the morphology of
sublittoral sponge communities.
Within the shallow
sublittoral zone (approximately 50 cm water depth) at each site, boulders were haphazardly selected (Chapman, 2002) until five boulders were sampled in each of two size categories: small (50-150 [cm.sup.2] upperside surface area) and large (200-800 [cm.sup.2]).
In the
sublittoral beds of Albaina, the first dinosaur and turtle remains have recently been described (Pereda-Suberbiola et al., in press).
Psammon communities have received very little attention compared to lower littoral and
sublittoral meiobenthos, and psammon has been rarely treated as a single entity.
Patches of
sublittoral cobbles and boulders, which vary greatly in density and cover on the seabed, produce an oasis of unexpected species diversity and biomass in an otherwise stressful and unsuitable habitat for marine macroalgae and sessile invertebrates.
Feeding characteristics of greenlings and Irish lords during spawning in the upper
sublittoral of eastern Kamchatka.
