My first dissertation chapter is published Journal Plankton Res. In this paper, we investigated the long-term change in copepod community body size in relation to climate change in a temperate estuary! Check this out - academic.oup.com/plankt/advance… #copepod #climatechange #timeseries

WAC is offering up to three student research grants for WAC members, with each award covering up to $1,000 maximum to support copepod research (including but not limited to research supplies and field work). Deadline Nov 1st - instructions below! monoculus.org/student-grants/

🚨New paper: Mitogenomics, phylogenetic position, and updated distribution of Ergasilus kandti, an ergasilid copepod parasitizing African cichlid fishes. The result of the BSc thesis of Dries Jansen supervised by Nikol KMENTOVA and me. doi.org/10.1007/s10750…

Dear Copepodologists, I’m Diva from Czechia, PhD scholar & WAC member, currently researching experimental copepods-zoonotic diseases. I’m looking for copepod samples for my work. More info. below, Your support by retweeting would be greatly appreciated! #Retweet #Copepods

Ergasilid copepods are common parasites in brackish and freshwater fish. Ergasilus lizae, in particular, is a cosmopolitan species known to infect various mullet species. Our latest paper offers key data to aid in the identification of this widespread parasite! #Parasitology

The diversity of parasitic copepods is stunning

🌡️ How will Arctic zooplankton cope with warming? #ACCES (#BiodivScen) finds that rising temps weaken metabolic capacity, shifting size advantages. This supports observed trends of increasing abundances of smaller boreal copepod species in the Arctic. doi.org/10.1093/icesjm…

Excited to share our recent paper! We developed a key to the genera of Caligidae, the largest family of parasitic copepods, which includes >500 species in 27 genera. Available here: doi.org/10.1645/24-97 I spent a lot of time imaging copepods for this project... [🧵1/5]

We have now a PeerJ Hub to highlight the research made on Copepoda!! Please see details below!

(2/2) Today WoRMS thanks all editors for this important task. We celebrate the work of taxonomists with the WoRMS list of the top-10 marine species described in 2024! marinespecies.org/worms-top-ten/… #toptenmarinespecies #taxonomistappreciationday #OceanDecade #marinespecies

A new monstrilloid copepod species is described and illustrated from coastal waters in the northern South China Sea. Find out more about it here: doi.org/10.3897/zookey… #copepods #zooplankton #taxonomy

Submitted a presentation abstract about trematode in Indonesia. Looking forward to attend the workshop there!
