Les Adaptations À La Volvation Du Squelette Externe De La Tête Chez Caecosphaeroma Burgundum Dollfus, Crustacé Isopode Des Eaux Souterraines, C. Marvillet Jan 1976

Les Adaptations À La Volvation Du Squelette Externe De La Tête Chez Caecosphaeroma Burgundum Dollfus, Crustacé Isopode Des Eaux Souterraines, C. Marvillet

International Journal of Speleology

The study of the cephalic capsule of Caecosphaeroma burgundum, a subterranean waters Isopod, demonstrates improved adaptations to volvation; these concern in a similar manner the other regions of the body, particularly the pleotelson. From a primitive aquatic Isopod structure, the head of this blind Spheromid has been completely fashioned by many mechanical factors: posterior margin of pleotelson providing support on the head, relation of anterior angles of the second pereionit and, above all, the mandibular palps and antennae which retract into two deep grooves of the face. The comparative study of the head of other volvational Isopods shows the …

Hydrologische Und Chemische Untersuchungen An Den Fließgewässern Des Schlitzerlandes. A. Quellen. I. Übersicht, Jörg Brehm Jan 1976

Hydrologische Und Chemische Untersuchungen An Den Fließgewässern Des Schlitzerlandes. A. Quellen. I. Übersicht, Jörg Brehm

International Journal of Speleology

In a Triassic sandstone woodland (Schlitzerland in Hesse, Western Germany) 17 springs were hydrologically and hydrochemically investigated throughout one year (April 1973 - April 1974). Measurements were carried out on water volume, temperature, electrolytical conductivity, pH, aikalinity, chlorinity, dissolved molecular oxygen, dissolved organic material (COD), ammonia, nitrite, nitrate, and free phosphate. Among the hydrochemical factors investigated the pH-value was closely related especially to the micro-climate in the spring drainage area. In particular the pH rose both with increasing length of the drainage area and — within the same spring with decreasing water supply. On the other hand the pH-value diminished …


The Distribution Of The Fauna In The Interstitial Habitats Of Riverine Sediments Of The Danube And The Piesting (Austria), Dan L. Danielopol Jan 1976

The Distribution Of The Fauna In The Interstitial Habitats Of Riverine Sediments Of The Danube And The Piesting (Austria), Dan L. Danielopol

International Journal of Speleology

The interstitial fauna living in the riverine sediments of the Danube and Piesting have been investigated in Lower Austria. The nematodes, oligochaetes and cyclopoids are the most abundant groups (they represent up to 80% of the total fauna). The harpacticoids, the insect larvae, the isopods, the amphipods, the cladocera and the limnohalacarids are poorly represented (generally under 20% of the total fauna). The absence of hydrachnellids is striking. The vertical distribution of the interstitial fauna shows for several groups i.e. limnohalacarids, ostracods, isopods, harpacticoids, that the epigean species are quantitatively better represented in the upper sediment layers instead of the …


Remarques Sur L'Aselle Psammique Proasellus Walteri (Chappuis, 1948) (Crustacea, Isopoda, Asellota), Jean-Paul Henry Jan 1976

Remarques Sur L'Aselle Psammique Proasellus Walteri (Chappuis, 1948) (Crustacea, Isopoda, Asellota), Jean-Paul Henry

International Journal of Speleology

P. walteri, an eyeless species of tiny size and thin body, shows numerous original characters. By its general morphology, it is one form of Asellid best adapted to the phreatic waters where it exists in large settlements. It is also able to live in the psammic biotope in a manner similar to Microparasellids. The females lay only 6 to 10 normal sized eggs. There is no indication of oostegits outside the breeding period. In some populations, the small number of eggs, correlated with the small size, seems to be compensated by a sex-ratio favorable so the females.


Quelques Données Sur La Population De Proasellus Slavus Ssp. N. Sket (Crustacea, Isopoda) Dans L'Hyporhéique De La Rivière Drave Près De Legrad, Romana Lattinger-Penko Jan 1976

Quelques Données Sur La Population De Proasellus Slavus Ssp. N. Sket (Crustacea, Isopoda) Dans L'Hyporhéique De La Rivière Drave Près De Legrad, Romana Lattinger-Penko

International Journal of Speleology

An analysis of the population in the hyporheic medium of the Drava river shows that Proasellus slavus ssp. n. is one of the smallest known Asellids. It is living in an interstitial biotope as a permanent population in which density varies in space and time. Our observations show that reproduction takes place throughout the year, however with a maximum rate at the beginning of summer. Females may produce a relatively great number of offspring, notwithstanding the smallness of the species.


The Role Of Groundwater In Eutrophication Of A Lake In Glacial Outwash Terrain, David Robert Lee Jan 1976

The Role Of Groundwater In Eutrophication Of A Lake In Glacial Outwash Terrain, David Robert Lee

International Journal of Speleology

The nutrient contribution of groundwater in glacial outwash terrain was evaluated at Lake Sallie in north-central U.S.A. (46°46’ N., 95° 54’ W.). Groundwater entering the lake was collected with seepage meters consisting of bottomless cylinders vented to a thin membrane bag. A theoretical flow net and comparison of nutrient concentrations in well and seepage water indicated that seepage meters can be used in high velocity discharge areas to obtain site-specific water samples of groundwater for nutrient analyses. Based on an average value of 0.25 mg/l PO4, groundwater inflow along an 800 km segment of shoreline transported 37 kg …


Über Ökologische Und Biogeographische Trends Innerhalb Der Harpacticoiden (Copepoda - Crustacea), Hans Jakobi Jan 1976

Über Ökologische Und Biogeographische Trends Innerhalb Der Harpacticoiden (Copepoda - Crustacea), Hans Jakobi

International Journal of Speleology

The majority of harpacticoids show a great dependence on the peculiarities of their habitat. This research attempted to detect the possible existence of biogeographical and ecological trends. The limited biogeographical data is discussed, so this is applied the method of analysis of morpho-ecological correlation (Jakobi, 1962) developed to determine ecological trends. This way, all characteristics of the harpacticoidean body selected were studied to check their adaptative value. Based on those results it was possible to establish and to define ecological units. Data were then subjected to statistical tests of homogeneity for variance and significance. Graphs are used to demonstrate the …


Die Vertikale Verteilung Von Ciliaten Im Stygorhithral Der Fulda (Beitrag Zur Kenntnis Mesopsammaler Ciliaten In Fließgewässern), Günther Lüpkes Jan 1976

Die Vertikale Verteilung Von Ciliaten Im Stygorhithral Der Fulda (Beitrag Zur Kenntnis Mesopsammaler Ciliaten In Fließgewässern), Günther Lüpkes

International Journal of Speleology

19 species of ciliates were found in interstitial biotopes of the Fulda Headwater. Two of these were new: Haplocaulus hengsti, n.sp. and Epistylis rotti, n.sp. (Peritrichida). The number of ciliate species decreases from the surface down so deeper layers; in a depth of 50 cm, only three species were found: Haplocaulus hengsti and Epistylis rotti and another small ciliate Trachelophyllum apiculatum. There was little detritus in this layer, and so, the abundance of the ciliates was low. On the other hand, there is little predation in deeper layers of stygorhithral sand and gravel. Small, long …
