Oligotrichids and choreotrichids are ciliate taxa contributing to the multi-step microbial food
web and episodically dominating the marine microzooplankton. The global diversity and …

Seasonal varaitions in species composition, abundance, biomass and production rates of
tintinnids (Protozoa: Ciliata) were investigated in the tropical estuarine and mangrove …

Sw~ tching between algal (Thalasdosira we~ ssflog~ i) and ciliate (Strobilidium undinum)
food by the marine copepod Acartia clausi was investigated In the laboratory by short …

This study evaluates the role of protozoa in larval fish feeding by describing protozoa in
larval fish diets and testing the hypothesis that, in the Irish Sea, larval fish feed on protozoan …

Few studies have studied the food supply to larval fish in the Irish Sea; thus, we have
assessed the full prey-field available to larval fish, ranging from protozoa to copepods …

Seasonal abundance and the relationship of microzooplankton with higher trophic levels
were studied in the tropical estuarine and mangrove waters, from Parangipettai (11° 29'N; …

Eleven ichthyoplankton cruises were undertaken covering most of the Irish Sea during the
period February to June, 1995. To identify spawning localities and investigate temporal …

The taxonomic composition, abundance and biomass of microzooplankton were studied at
eight stations in Lake Shinji–Ohashi River–Lake Nakaumi brackish-water system, Japan …

Seasonal variations in abundance and carbon biomass of ciliated protozoa and
micrometazoa were studied from May 1998 to November 1999 in the eutrophicated area of …

Phylogenetic analyses of ciliated protists are frequently based on single molecular markers,
usually the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene (SSU rDNA), despite the well-known …
