Tidal migration of nematodes on an estuarine tidal flat (The Molenplaat, Schelde Estuary, SW Netherlands)
The vertical distribution patterns of the nematode community and of the 10 most dominant nematode species on an intertidal flat in the Schelde Estuary (the Molenplaat, The Netherlands) are described at specific time intervals over a tidal cycle. The observed distribution profiles indicate that vertical migrations occur and are species-specific. The predatory Enoploides longispiculosus and the deposit-feeding Daptonema normandicum migrated upwards at incoming tide and downwards when the flat became exposed, while another deposit feeder, Daptonema setosum, did the opposite. Several abiotic and b... Mehr ...
