Addressing knowledge gaps in the systematics of temperate south-east Australian deep-sea Raphitomidae (Caenogastropoda: Conoidea): integrative taxonomy of species of less diverse and taxonomically problematic genera

Invertebrate systematics
The conoidean family Raphitomidae is arguably one of the most diverse groups of deep-sea gastropods. A previous molecular phylogenetic study, based on material from bathyal and abyssal waters of temperate south-eastern Australia and aiming to define the ...

On the taxonomy and distribution of Diamesa gregsoni Edwards, (Diptera: Chironomidae: Diamesinae), with morphological redescription and DNA barcoding of species from the Far East.

Zootaxa
By analyzing the DNA barcoding data of the Diamesa gregsoni Edwards syntype, we carried out a genetic study of this species from the Far East and made a comparison with DNA barcodes of North American populations.

Multi-Gene Analysis, Morphology, and Species Delimitation Methods Reveal a New Species of Melanothamnus, M. coxsbazarensis sp. nov. (Rhodomelaceae, Ceramiales), for the Marine Red Algal Flora from Bangladesh

Diversity
Some Melanothamnus species have been documented growing epiphytically on other algae in seaweed aquaculture farms as fouling organisms. Such turf-forming Polysiphonia-looking algae were collected from a small (

DNA reveal new invasive species of tiger shrimp Penaeus monodon (Penaeidae) along the world’s largest mangrove region in the Brazilian Blue Amazon

Scientific Reports
Bioinvasions represent a major environmental issue, particularly when they take place in biodiversity hotspots, such as mangrove ecosystems that serve as shelter for many marine species and fisheries resources.
