contents Complexity of trophic relationships between Gammarus aequicauda (Amphipoda) and Eucypris mareotica (Ostracoda) in a hypersaline lake Nickolai Shadrin Vladimir Yakovenko Elena Anufriieva Journal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology AbstractIn the hypersaline lakes of Crimea, only 5–7 species of animals are common including Gammarus aequicauda (Amphipoda) and Eucypris mareotica (Ostracoda). Two experiments were carried out to characterize the trophic interactions between these species. In one, G. aequicauda were used freshly caught from the lake, and in the other, after they were starved for 2.5 days in the laboratory. The experimental options were one male or female G. aequicauda and either 10, 20, or 30 ostracods. The gammarids actively fed on the ostracods, and significant differences were between females and males. The feeding intensity of males was higher than that of females. However, ostracods are not passive prey, they can actively attack their predator and are capable of causing them harm. Ostracods attacked a Gammarus only if it had captured one of the ostracods. Sex differences in G. aequicauda were also evident in the reaction to the group's aggressive behavior of ostracods. Interactions between Ostracoda and Gammarids cannot be considered unidirectional; they both may be prey or predators depending on the situation. 10.1002/jez.2821 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor
