Abstract Aim We evaluated whether patterns of species diversity (α, β and γ) rocky shore assemblages followed latitudinal gradients (i.e. LDGs) along the South American coasts, tested hypotheses related to potential processes sustaining or disrupting expected LDG pattern at various spatial scales. Location Coasts America. Taxon Macroalgae sessile/slow‐moving macrofauna on intertidal shores. Methods changes in composition across 143 sites. The degree replacement loss different scales regions...
Summary Antarctic terrestrial ecosystems are largely dominated by lichens, while shallow coastal environments mainly covered macroalgae. The aim of this study was to isolate and evaluate the diversity yeasts in different species macroalgae lichens collected South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. A total 405 were recovered (205 from 200 lichens). yeast community most than lichen. dominance index similar for both substrates. 24 taxa 18 identified, only 5 common Metschnikowia australis, Mrakia...
Opportunistic pathogenic yeast species are frequently associated with water habitats that have pollution sources of human or animal origin. Candida albicans has already been suggested as a faecal indicator microorganism for aquatic environments.The goal this study was to investigate the occurrence C. and other opportunistic yeasts in sand seawater samples from beaches Brazil assess their correlation Escherichia coli, characterise potential isolates.Opportunistic (yeasts grow at 37ºC) were...
Seaweeds are used directly as food or applied indirectly texturing agents with gelling and thickening properties (carrageenan, agar alginates) in many industries. They can also be fertilizers, animal feed, biomass for fuel, cosmetics a source of pharmaceuticals, among other applications. The aquaculture macroalgae is an alternative producing raw material. Brazil has coastline numerous locations suitable this endeavor. However, despite the known economical social relevance seaweed...
Abstract This study provides new species records (NRs) of macroalgal assemblages present in rocky habitats from the South Shetland Islands (SSI) and north-eastern Antarctic Peninsula (EAP), Weddell Sea. Surveys were conducted during summers 2013/2014 to 2017/2018 at Elephant, Deception, Half Moon Vega islands. Data those available literature western (WAP) combined provide an updated checklist, giving insights into macroecology potential changes thermohaline circulation patterns. A total 48...
Abstract A new species, Gayralia brasiliensis (Ulotrichales, Chlorophyta), is described from Brazil on the basis of ontogenetic, morphological, and molecular phylogenetic data. Liberation zooids monostromatically bladed thalli occurred by disintegration zooidangium wall, releasing four biflagellate cells with prominent eyespots. Fusion was not observed. After zooid attachment, cell divisions gave rise to uniseriate filaments that developed into fan-shaped blades. Only asexual reproduction...
Determining the diet and trophic status of endangered species can provide insights into their key habitats predator-prey relationships, both essential for conservation. Integrating dietary information from live-captured dead-stranded turtles same area also shed light on ecological diversity. Here, intake prey diversity are determined juvenile green Chelonia mydas a mixed stock foraging aggregation in Southwestern Atlantic Ocean (SWAO) using stable carbon (δ 13 C) nitrogen 15 N) isotope...
This study describes the diversity of benthic marine algae from insular areas southern Brazilian coast. Algal samples were collected between 2006 and 2010 during winter summer seasons at three sites in coastal waters Paraná, Brazil: Ilha do Mel, Currais Archipelago Farol. The along parallel transects on In this survey, Paraná phycoflora comprised 139 taxa (90 Rhodophyta, 27 Chlorophyta 22 Phaeophyceae). Fifty-two species represent new records for state, 14 are present all sampling both...
