Journal ArticleDOI
The invasive rapa whelk rapana venosa (valenciennes 1846): status and potential ecological impacts in the río de la plata estuary, argentina-uruguay
Diego Giberto,Claudia Silvia Bremec,Laura Schejter,Agustín Schiariti,Hermes Mianzan,Eduardo M. Acha,Eduardo M. Acha +6 more
TL;DR: The presence of R. venosa in muddy sediments together with the finding of egg-capsules over the specimens, and the low salinity values at which it is found in the Río de la Plata estuary, confirmed the high plasticity of R.'s venosa and the potential capability of successfully invading novel environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Namuncurá Marine Protected Area: an oceanic hot spot of benthic biodiversity at Burdwood Bank, Argentina
Laura Schejter,Clara Rimondino,Ignacio Luis Chiesa,Ignacio Luis Chiesa,Juan Martín Díaz de Astarloa,Brenda Lía Doti,Rodolfo Elías,Mariana Escolar,Gabriel Genzano,Gabriel Genzano,Juan López-Gappa,Marcos Tatián,Diego G. Zelaya,Javier Cristobo,Carlos D. Pérez,Ralf T. S. Cordeiro,Claudia Silvia Bremec,Claudia Silvia Bremec +17 more
TL;DR: This contribution represents the most recent and complete checklist of benthic organisms (mainly mega and macrofauna) that summarized 240 taxa collected at three sites in the mentioned area and largely exceeds the values coming from other productive areas in Argentinean waters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identifying predators of the SW Atlantic Patagonian scallop Zygochlamys patagonica using stable isotopes
Florencia Botto,Florencia Botto,Claudia Silvia Bremec,Angel Marecos,Laura Schejter,Mario Lasta,Oscar Iribarne,Oscar Iribarne +7 more
TL;DR: Evaluated food web structure associated with a Patagonian scallop Zygochlamys patagonica fishing bed using stable isotopes as an indirect technique suggests that there are at least three consumer trophic levels and any strategy toward managing predators in this system should take into account potentialTrophic cascade effects.
Journal ArticleDOI
Benthic richness in the Argentine continental shelf: the role of Zygochlamys patagonica (Mollusca: Bivalvia: Pectinidae) as settlement substrate
TL;DR: Zygochlamys patagonica shells constitute conspicuous hard substrate available for the settlement of sessile organisms, which leads to an increased benthic richness in the continental soft-bottom areas of the Argentine Sea, where scallop beds are located.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydroid assemblages from the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean (34–42° S)
TL;DR: A non-parametric multivariate similarity analysis revealed nine species groups that were correlated with large-scale and local oceanographic patterns and with the availability of suitable substrata, and the main hydroid substrata for eight of the groups were cnidarians, molluscs, quartzite rocks and sponges.
