With a correlational approach, phenotype. These changes are supposed to increase transmission we also evidenced variation in the magnitude of antipredatory probability to definitive hosts through the predation of intermediate behaviours according to local predation risk and conspecifics hosts. This phenomenon is known as ‘parasite manipulation’ has density, in uninfected individuals. In addition, we emphasized been hypothesized to be an adaptive trait of parasites for a long flexibility of behavioural responses to predator cues: individuals time. As manipulation involves predator-prey interactions, it is from populations experiencing high predation risk exhibited therefore necessary to understand how antipredatory behaviours increased responses as predator cues concentrations increased. In are modulated by exogenous (predation pressure) and endogenous contrast, individuals from populations experiencing low predation (infection, emotional state) factors. We tried to go into this risk appeared to exhibit strong responses independent of predator phenomenon in depth, in amphipods, by responding to several cues concentrations, suggesting hypersensitivity. We supposed that questions : (1) what is the extent of the multidimensionality in these strategies would be closely related to the exposure to chronic parasite manipulation by Acanthocephalan, quantified through a predation risk. We therefore suggest the existence of an anxiety- meta-analysis ; (2) is there variation in the magnitude of like state that could result from the repetition of acute stress, i.e. antipredatory behaviours according to local predation risk?

We made a first step through an experimental antipredatory behaviours flexible with respect to local predation approach, evidencing the existence of both anxiety-like and fear risk?

Overall, these works pointed out the individuals, in relation to an emotional state such as anxiety-like importance of predator-prey interactions in the study of parasite state? Within the Acanthocephala phylum, we evidenced notable manipulation.

Suppl. 4: 1 -85 (2001) © Gesellschaft für Biologische Systematik http://www.senckenberg.uni-frankfurt.de/odes/01-04.htm Phylogeny and Biogeography of South American Crinocheta, traditionally placed in the family "Philosciidae" (Crustacea: Isopoda: Oniscidea) Andreas Leistikow1 Universität Bielefeld, Abteilung für Zoomorphologie und Systematik Received 15 February 2000 . Accepted 9 August 2000. Abstract South America is diverse in climatic and thus vegetational zonation, and even the uniformly looking tropical rain forests are a mosaic of different habitats depending on the soils, the regional climate and also the geological history. An important part of the nutrient webs of the rain forests is formed by the terrestrial Isopoda, or Oniscidea, the only truly terrestrial taxon within the Crustacea. They are important, because they participate in soil formation by breaking up leaf litter when foraging on the fungi and bacteria growing on them. After a century of research on this interesting taxon, a revision of the terrestrial isopod taxa from South America and some of the Antillean Islands, which are traditionally placed in the family Philosciidae, was performed in the last years to establish monophyletic genera. Within this study, the phylogenetic relationships of these genera are elucidated in the light of phylogenetic systematics. Several new taxa are recognized, which are partially neotropical, partially also found on other continents, particularly the old Gondwanian fragments. The monophyla are checked for their distributional patterns which are compared with those patterns from other taxa from South America and some correspondence was found. The distributional patterns are analysed with respect to the evolution of the Oniscidea and also with respect to the geological history of their habitats.

Expression of parasite traits related to transmission, such as the manipulation of host phenotype, may peak in seasons when transmission is optimal. The acanthocephalan Acanthocephalus lucii is primarily transmitted to its fish definitive host in spring. We assessed whether the parasitic alteration of 2 traits (hiding behaviour and coloration) in the isopod intermediate host was more pronounced at this time of year. Refuge use by infected isopods was lower, relative to uninfected isopods, in spring than in summer or fall. Infected isopods had darker abdomens than uninfected isopods, but this difference did not vary between seasons. The level of host alteration was unaffected by exposing isopods to different light and temperature regimes. In a group of infected isopods kept at 4 xC, refuge use decreased from November to May, indicating that reduced hiding in spring develops during winter.

  • Neotropical Woodlice (Isopoda) Colonizing Leaf-Litter of Pioneer Plants
    NEOTROPICAL WOODLICE (ISOPODA) COLONIZING LEAF-LITTER OF PIONEER PLANTS... 743 Nota NEOTROPICAL WOODLICE (ISOPODA) COLONIZING LEAF-LITTER OF PIONEER PLANTS IN A COAL RESIDUE DISPOSAL ENVIRONMENT(1) Luciana Regina Podgaiski(2), Aline Ferreira Quadros(3), Paula Beatriz Araujo(4) & Gilberto Gonçalves Rodrigues(5) ABSTRACT The irregular disposal of coal combustion residues has adverse impacts on terrestrial ecosystems. Pioneer plants and soil invertebrates play an important role in the recovery of these areas. The goal of this study was to investigate the colonization patterns of terrestrial isopods (Oniscidea) in leaf litter of three spontaneous pioneer plants (grass - Poaceae, shrub – Euphorbiaceae, tree - Anarcadiaceae) at sites used for fly ash or boiler slag disposal. The experiment consisted of eight blocks (four per disposal site) of 12 litter bags each (four per plant species) that were randomly removed after 6, 35, 70 or 140 days of field exposure. Three isopod species were found in the litter bags: Atlantoscia floridana (van Name, 1940) (Philosciidae; n = 116), Benthana taeniata Araujo & Buckup, 1994 (Philosciidae; n = 817) and Balloniscus sellowii (Brandt, 1833) (Balloniscidae; n = 48). The isopods colonized the three leaf-litter species equally during the exposure period. However, the pattern of leaf-litter colonization by these species suggests a conflict of objectives between high quality food and shelter availability. The occurrence of A. floridana and the abundance and fecundity of B. taeniata were influenced by the residue type, indicating that the isopods have different degrees of tolerance to the characteristics of the studied sites. Considering that terrestrial isopods are abundant detritivores and stimulate the humus-forming processes, it is suggested that they could have an indirect influence on the soil restoration of this area.

  • Acanthocephalus Lucii
    Sayyaf Dezfuli et al. Parasites & Vectors (2018) 11:424 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13071-018-3002-6 RESEARCH Open Access Pike intestinal reaction to Acanthocephalus lucii (Acanthocephala): immunohistochemical and ultrastructural surveys Bahram Sayyaf Dezfuli1*, Luisa Giari1, Massimo Lorenzoni2, Antonella Carosi2, Maurizio Manera3 and Giampaolo Bosi4 Abstract Background: The Northern pike, Esox lucius, is a large, long-lived, top-predator fish species and occupies a broad range of aquatic environments. This species is on its way to becoming an important model organism and has the potential to contribute new knowledge and a better understanding of ecology and evolutionary biology. Very few studies have been done on the intestinal pathology of pike infected with helminths. The present study details the first Italian record of adult Acanthocephalus lucii reported in the intestine of E. lucius. Results: A total of 22 pike from Lake Piediluco (Central Italy) were examined, of which 16 (72.7%) were infected with A. lucii. The most affected areas of gastrointestinal tract were the medium and distal intestine. The intensity of infection ranged from 1 to 18 parasites per host. Acanthocephalus lucii penetrated mucosal and submucosal layers which had a high number of mast cells (MCs) with an intense degranulation. The cellular elements involved in the immune response within the intestine of pike were assessed by ultrastructural techniques and immunohistochemistry using antibodies against met-enkephalin, immunoglobulin E (IgE)-like receptor (FCεRIγ), histamine, interleukin-6, interleukin-1β, substance P, lysozyme, serotonin, inducible-nitric oxide synthase (i-NOS), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and the antimicrobial peptide piscidin 3 (P3).
