TL;DR: All marine groups studied suggest the exclusion of Cabo Verde from the remaining Macaronesian archipelagos and thus, CaboVerde should be given the status of a biogeographic subprovince within the West African Transition province.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anchialine fauna of the Corona lava tube (Lanzarote, Canary Islands): diversity, endemism and distribution
Alejandro Martínez García,Alejandro Martínez García,Ana María Palmero,María del Carmen Brito,Jorge Núñez,Katrine Worsaae +5 more
TL;DR: A checklist of 77 taxa recorded from the anchialine sections of the Corona lava tube is provided, including information on habitats, faunal distribution within the cave, and main references.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geographical expansion of the invader Caprella scaura (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Caprellidae) to the East Atlantic coast
José M. Guerra-García,Macarena Ros,A. Dugo-Cota,V. Burgos,A. M. Flores-León,Elena Baeza-Rojano,M.P. Cabezas,Jorge Núñez +7 more
TL;DR: It is confirmed that the populations of C. scaura are effectively established, with high densities and reproducing females during the whole year, and significant correlation was found between female size and number of eggs in the three populations, but egg size did not vary with female body length.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polychaetes associated to a Cymodocea nodosa meadow in the Canary Islands: assemblage structure, temporal variability and vertical distribution compared to other Mediterranean seagrass meadows
TL;DR: The structure, diversity and temporal distribution of the infaunal polychaetes associated with Cymodocea nodosa meadows were studied in Tenerife and indicated that the structural characteristics of the assemblages appeared to be more strongly controlled by the combined characteristics ofThe sediment than by the seagrass species building the meadow.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clear regression of harvested intertidal mollusks. A 20-year (1994-2014) comparative study.
Rodrigo Riera,Óscar Cano Pérez,Omar Álvarez,David Simón,Dácil Díaz,Óscar Monterroso,Jorge Núñez +6 more
TL;DR: Using mollusk shell size as a measure of size distribution and reproductive potential of intertidal limpets, a long-term comparison of limpet size has been conducted as a surrogate of the state of conservation of these two limpets.
