An Assessment Of Three Harpacticoid Copepod Species For Use In Ecotoxicological Testing, Daniel J. Ward, Victor Perez-Landa, David A. Spadaro, Stuart L. Simpson, Dianne F. Jolley

Faculty of Science - Papers (Archive)

The relatively short life cycles of harpacticoid copepods makes them appropriate animals for use in tests that rapidly assess the #180, sublethal, or chronic effects of sediment contaminants. In this study, four harpacticoid copepod species (Nitocra spinipes, Tisbe tenuimana, Robertgurneya hopkinsi, and Halectinosoma sp.) were isolated from clean marine sediments, and procedures for laboratory culturing were developed. Halectinosoma sp. was abandoned due to handling difficulties. For the remaining species, the influence of food type and quantity on life-cycle progression was assessed. A mixed diet, comprising two species of algae (Tetraselmis sp. and Isochrysis sp.) and fish food (Sera …
