Molluscs comprise the second largest phylum of animals (after arthropods), occurring in
virtually all habitats. Some are commercially important, a few are pests and some carry …

Geographically widespread species must cope with environmental differences between
habitats. Information concerning geographic variations in response to climate variability is …

Freshwater salinisation is an environmental challenge that threatens freshwater species
survival. We investigated the influence of increased water salinity on the oxidative status in …

The muricid gastropod Acanthina monodon deposits egg capsules in both subtidal and
intertidal environments. Intertidal egg capsules are naturally exposed during low tides to …

Crepipatella dilatata was first reported out of its native range in south Galicia (NW Spain) in
2005. After that, there are no quantitative data about its abundance and the dynamics of its …

The intertidal zone represents a challenging environment for filter-feeding marine
invertebrates. Smaller individuals are more prone to intertidal stressors than their larger …

Beehorn snail (Clithon diadema), known for its vibrant colors, is threatened with extinction
due to excessive field collection. Therefore, this study investigated the effects of different …

The interacting effects of climate change pressures and human use of natural resources are
increasingly affecting marine biodiversity. Variations in key abiotic factors such as …

Rocky intertidal communities are structured by local environmental drivers, which can be
dynamic, fluctuating on various temporal scales, or static and not greatly varying across …

Global warming-induced environmental changes have resulted in salinity fluctuations that
markedly impact aquatic organisms. Consequently, the salinization of freshwater has …
