The bigger, the better? Volume measurements of parasites and hosts: Parasitic barnacles (Cirripedia, Rhizocephala) and their decapod hosts
Nagler, Christina; Hornig, Marie K; Haug, Joachim T; Noever, Christoph; Høeg, Jens T.; Glenner, Henrik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-07-05)Rhizocephala, a group of parasitic castrators of other crustaceans, shows remarkable morphological adaptations to their lifestyle. The adult female parasite consists of a body that can be differentiated into two distinct ... -
Caught in the act: phenotypic consequences of a recent shift in feeding strategy of the shark barnacle Anelasma squalicola (Lovén, 1844)
Ommundsen, Anders; Noever, Christoph; Glenner, Henrik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-03)Anelasma squalicola is a barnacle found attached to deep-water lantern sharks of the family Etmopteridae and is the only known cirriped on fish hosts. While A. squalicola is equipped with mouth and thoracic appendages ... -
Coevolution between king crabs (Paguridae: Lithodinae) and parasitic barnacles (Cirripedia: Rhizocephala)
Noever, Christoph (Doctoral thesis, 2017-01-27)Molecular evidence has established that king crabs (Lithodinae) are gigantic hermit crabs without a gastropod shell to protect their abdomen. Secondarily, the abdomen has become calcified and flexed, in a crab-like manner. ... -
Expansion of the barnacle Austrominius modestus (Darwin, 1854) (cirripedia, Thoracica, Balanidae) into Scandinavian waters based on collection data and niche distribution modeling
Glenner, Henrik; Lützen, Jørgen; Riano, Laura Camila Pacheco; Noever, Christoph (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)The barnacle Austrominius modestus, native of New Zealand and Australia was introduced to the South of England around 1943 and has since spread to most coastal waters in Western Europe, including the southern North Sea. ... -
First 3D reconstruction of the rhizocephalan root system using MicroCT
Noever, Christoph; Keiler, Jonas; Glenner, Henrik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-07)Parasitic barnacles (Cirripedia: Rhizocephala) are highly specialized parasites of crustaceans. Instead of an alimentary tract for feeding they utilize a system of roots, which infiltrates the body of their hosts to absorb ... -
Life histories of Antarctic incirrate octopods (Cephalopoda: Octopoda)
Schwarz, Richard; Hoving, Henk-Jan; Noever, Christoph; Piatkowski, Uwe (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-07-11)As a general trend in the life history of marine organisms, species inhabiting cold waters have reduced growth rates and increased lifespans. Studies based on egg sizes and brooding times of deep-sea and polar octopods ... -
A new molecular phylogeny-based taxonomy of parasitic barnacles (Crustacea: Cirripedia: Rhizocephala)
Høeg, Jens Thorvald; Noever, Christoph; Rees, David John; Crandall, Keith A.; Glenner, Henrik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Rhizocephalans are abundant members of marine ecosystems and are important regulators of crustacean host populations. Morphological and ecological variation makes them an attractive system for evolutionary studies of ... -
Two new cryptic and sympatric species of the king crab parasite Briarosaccus (Cirripedia: Rhizocephala) in the North Pacific
Noever, Christoph; Olson, Andrew; Glenner, Henrik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-01-05)Rhizocephalan barnacles have been reported to parasitize a wide range of king crab species (Lithodidae). So far all these parasites have been assigned to a single species, Briarosaccus callosus Boschma, 1930, which is ...
