1, Thus, our data of Calanoid copepod species richness, abundance, diversity index and shelf-offshore occurrence of dominant species show obvious community succession from shelf to offshore waters.

2, Imperceptibly the yellow balloon and the yellow copepod mingle with the music in my mind, the balloon representing the globe on which copepods play such a prominent ecological role.

3, The species of cladoceran and copepod in Shiquan River are fewer. From the specimens we observed 5 families 8 genus 18 species of cladoceran and the dominant species are A.

4, The results indicated that different copepods at same natural acclimated temperature and specific copepod at different initial acclimated temperature had different thermal tolerance capability.

5, The salinity tolerance range of this copepod extended effectively acclimation, and display its potential distribution area.

6, They included cold-blooded organisms that ranged in average lifespan from 11.6 days for the copepod (small crustaceans) Arcartia tonsa to 74 years for the pearl mussel (Margaritifera margaritifera).

7, The present paper deals with the biology of the parasitic copepod Lernaea poly-morpha and the acquired immunity on the part of the hosts after its infeetion on silver carp and big-head.

8, One of the focal spot of marine ecology is the effects of diatom on copepod reproduction,(http:///copepod.html) which decreases copepod egg fecundity and hatching success.

9, Several significant changes were found in the composition of the rotifer, cladoceran and copepod assemblages.

10, The results showed that silver carp could control bloom of both cyanobacteria and pelagic copepod.

11, The results showed that the first-feeding occurred on 2 DAH, and preyed mainly on copepod nauplius , larval copepod and cladocera, the recipe was chiefly composed of copepod, and large zooplanktons.
