The cosmopolitan freshwater pulmonate snail Physa acuta hybridizes readily with Physa carolinae in the laboratory, although their F1 progeny are sterile. The two species differ qualitatively in shell shape, the former bearing a more globose shell and

Cryptic species can present a significant challenge to the application of systematic and biogeographic principles, especially if they are invasive or transmit parasites or pathogens. Detecting cryptic species requires a pluralistic approach in which

Volatility in the effective size of a freshwater gastropod population

Autor: Robert T. Dillon

Publikováno v: Ecology and Evolution

Despite the utility of gastropod models for the study of evolutionary processes of great generality and importance, their effective population size has rarely been estimated in the field. Here, we report allele frequency variance at three allozyme‐

Cryptic phenotypic plasticity in populations of the freshwater prosobranch snail, Pleurocera canaliculata

Autor: Mark Pyron, Stephen J. Jacquemin, Robert T. Dillon

Publikováno v: Hydrobiologia. 709:117-127

We sampled four populations of the robustly shelled Pleurocera canaliculata from large rivers and five pleurocerid populations bearing more fusiform shells (nominally P. acuta and P. pyrenellum) from smaller streams in a study area extending from ups

Land Use and Wetland Spatial Position Jointly Determine Amphibian Parasite Communities

Publikováno v: EcoHealth. 8:485-500

Land use change is one of the most commonly cited contributing factors to infectious disease emergence, yet the mechanisms responsible for such changes and the spatial scales at which they operate are rarely identified. The distributions of parasites
