Diese Arbeit sollte durch vergleichende Betrachtung von Gastropodenepithelien Rückschlüsse auf Habitats- spezifische Anpassungen ziehen. Hierbei lag der Fokus auf Vorkommen und Dichte von Mikrovilli sowie Zilien und der ...

In diesem Praktikum wurden drei verschiedene Deckelschnecken - eine marine, eine Süßwasser- und eine Landdeckelschnecke - untersucht, wobei sich diese Arbeit mit der stumpfen Sumpfdeckelschnecke Vivipa- rus viviparus ...

Hermit crabs occupy empty gastropods shells, which have to provide both: mobility and protection. Yet, the process of shell selection and the preference for different architectural traits, such as globose or conical ...

The composition of organisms in the interstitial depends on various abiotic factors of the habitat, e.g. grain size, water content and depth of the oxidationhorizon in the sediment. In this study, we compared the presence ...

The round-mouthed snail Pomatias elegans is a terrestrial gastropod, which belongs to the subclass Pro- sobranchia and is widely distributed in Europe and in the Black Sea region. This study aims to describe in detail the ...

The hermit crab Cilbanarius erythropus lacks protection of his sensitive peon and therefore needs robust shells of gastropodous to live in and get the possibility of retraction. This function of protection is only warranted ...
