Voici qu'arrive un petit #crustacé #amphipode qui vit en parasite dans les grosses espèces du #plancton gélatineux (méduses, salpes, Cténaires...) !

#NewSpecies of ocean predator in the Atacama Trench

A new large predator (#Amphipoda) hidden at hadal depths of the #AtacamaTrench: Johanna Weston et al. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10

"Characterized by darkness and intense pressure, the ocean's #HadalZone seems uninhabitable, yet dozens of unique organisms call it home... A new study highlights one of those species... This #crustacean is the first large, active predatory #amphipod from these extreme depths"

Un #amphipode grégaire et invasif d'Europe (#Atlantique N-E et #Méditerranée) vivant en colonies dans des tubes, est arrivé sur le site DORIS : l'éricthonie didyme !
Dédié à Érichthonios, 4e roi légendaire d'Athènes.

Les plongeurs risquent de rencontrer de plus en plus souvent ces colonies de tubes, avec une bestiole qui dépasse... 😕

In addition to Nikon's Small World photography contest, there is another contest called "The Close-up Photographer of the Year" [cupoty.com/]. From that contest, I share with you some caprellid amphipods taken by Viktor Lyagushkin. #arthropoda #crustacea #amphipoda #photography

On the 31th and final day of #Crustmas my true love gave to me the fossil Rosagammarus minichiellus McMenamin et al 2013 from the Triassic Luning Formation in Nevada. This particular fossil has had an interesting path of reinterpretation. Buckle up!

On the 28th day of #Crustmas my true love gave to me the fossil talitrid amphipod Caecorchestia bousfieldi Hegna & Lazo-Wasem in Hegna et al 2020. Yes, I was somewhat involved in naming this one . . .
The cool thing about this amphipod is that it is preserved in amber. Typically, we associate amber with trees. And, we associate amphipods with water. How could these two meet? #crustacea #arthropoda #amphipoda #malacostraca #fossil
