Interactions and Adaptation Strategies of Marine Organisms Proceedings of the 31st European Marine Biology Symposium, held in St. Petersburg, Russia, 9–13 September 1996

This volume provides a refereed selection of the proceedings of the 31st European Marine Biology Symposium, held in St. Petersburg, Russia, in September 1996. State-of-the-art reviews and studies on adaptational processes in marine organisms such as adaptations to fluctuations in salinity, temperatu...

Table of Contents:
  • Chemically-mediated interactions in benthic organisms: the chemical ecology of Crambecrambe (Porifera, Poecilosclerida)
  • Fauna associated with detached kelp in different types of subtidal habitats of the White Sea
  • Soft-bottom macro invertebrate fauna of North Norwegian coastal waters with particular reference to sill-basins. Part one: Bottom topography and species diversity
  • Adaptation Strategies in Marine Organisms
  • Mechanisms of salinity adaptations in marine molluscs
  • Sensitivity to stress in the bivalve Macomabalthica from the most northern (Arctic) to the most southern (French) populations: low sensitivity in Arctic populations because of genetic adaptations?
  • Defenses against oxidative stress in the Antarctic scallop Adamussium colbecki and effects of acute exposure to metals
  • A new species of Hyalopomatus (Serpulidae:Polychaeta) which lacks an operculum: is this an adaptation to low oxygen?
  • Adaptation capabilities of marine modular organisms
  • Interactions in Marine Organisms
  • The importance of juveniles in structuring a littoral macrobenthic community
  • Epibenthic predation in marine soft-bottoms: being small and how to get away with it
  • Abundance, feeding behaviour and nematocysts of scyphopolyps (Cnidaria) and nematocysts in their predator, the nudibranch Coryphella verrucosa (Mollusca)
  • The importance of intraspecific competition in a Littorina littorea population in the Wadden Sea
  • Occurrence of epifauna on the periwinkle, Littorinalittorea (L.), and interactions with the polychaete Polydoraciliata (Johnston)
  • Effects of epibiosis on consumer—prey interactions
  • Parasites on an intertidal Corophium-bed: factors determining the phenology of microphallid trematodes in the intermediate host populations of the mud-snail Hydrobiaulvae and the amphipod Corophiumvolutator
  • The association between the caprellid Pariambustypicus Krøyer (Crustacea, Amphipoda) and ophiuroids
