Size- and sex-related sensitivity differences of aquatic crustaceans to imidacloprid

Anna Huang et al.

Summary: Field collected aquatic invertebrates are often used for risk assessments of pollutants, but selecting specific sexes and sizes may not represent the sensitivity of the entire population. In this study, Gammarus pulex and Asellus aquaticus were tested with different size classes and sexes, revealing intraspecies sensitivity differences that can be explained by toxicokinetic and toxicodynamic processes.

Animal size and sea water temperature, but not pH, influence a repeatable startle response behaviour in a wide-ranging marine mollusc

Jeff C. Clements et al.

Summary: The study found that the time to open of mussels is related to their vulnerability to predation and is affected by temperature, with higher temperatures increasing the time to open. The pH levels had no significant effect on the time to open. Time to open was highly repeatable in the short term and decreased linearly across trials.

Behavioral responses of three freshwater planaria species to light, visual and olfactory stimuli: Setting the stage for further ecotoxicological studies

Odile Martinez et al.

Summary: This study aimed to fill the research gap on planarian behavior by conducting six behavioral challenges on three different species, highlighting differences between species. The results help in selecting suitable tests and species for future ecotoxicological and neurophysiological studies, with four out of six tests being deemed reliable for standardizing planarian behavioral tests.

Effects of diclofenac on the swimming behavior and antioxidant enzyme activities of the freshwater interstitial crustacean Bryocamptus pygmaeus (Crustacea, Harpacticoida)

Mattia Di Cicco et al.

Summary: Diclofenac (DCF) is a pseudo-persistent pollutant in freshwater, affecting the behavior and biochemical parameters of certain freshwater invertebrate species. Exposure to DCF may lead to a decrease in mitochondrial function and reduced energy production, impacting cell functions and total energetic budget allocated for physiological activities.

A new approach to assessing the space use behavior of macroinvertebrates by automated video tracking

Milad Shokri et al.

Summary: Individual space and resource use are important issues in ecology and conservation, and the development of robust tracking methods for motile aquatic macroinvertebrates is challenging due to their small size and rapid movement. A video tracking method was developed to study space use behavior in aquatic macroinvertebrates, showing that individual size influences behaviors such as patch selection and giving-up times. This method can provide insights into species coexistence and mechanistic models on larger spatial scales, with implications for ecological and evolutionary processes.

A forward genetic screen identifies Dolk as a regulator of startle magnitude through the potassium channel subunit Kv1.1

Joy H. Meserve et al.

Summary: The acoustic startle response is an evolutionarily conserved avoidance behavior that can be disrupted in human neurological disorders. Using zebrafish larvae, a genetic screen identified eight genes critical for regulating startle behavior, with two of the genes associated with human disorders. Experimental validation showed that these genes play key roles in regulating movement magnitude in the spinal cord.
