Rare giant "shrimp" is more widespread than previously believed, new findings reveal https://phys.org/news/2025-05-rare-giant-shrimp-widespread-previously.html
The supergiant #amphipod Alicella gigantea may inhabit over half of the world’s oceans https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsos.241635
"#Amphipods like A. gigantea are #shrimp-like #crustaceans known for their narrow frames and a signature hump-backed curl in their posture. They roam the #DeepSea, from the abyssal depths (3,000–6,000 m) to beyond hadal zones (>6,000 m)"

#twittermigration #firstpost #introduction
👋 I am a senior research assistant in the #Altermatt_lab at #University_of_Zurich and #Eawag.
My research focuses on #amphipods, their #diversity and #distribution, both in epigean and subterranean #ecosystems. I combine field data and laboratory experiments to study the influence of connectivity on #diversity and the role of #amphipods for #ecosystem functioning in #freshwater.
