Incorporating reef condition into conservation planning to meet place‐based biodiversity outcomes under the Global Biodiversity Framework

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract To achieve Kunming–Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) Target 3, the selection of protected areas must consider the condition of ecosystems at sites in addition to the GBF 30% area target. Implementing this consideration for coral reef ecosystems is challenging because data describing condition are patchy and limited.

A Pentaradial and Bilateral Combined Photoreception System in the Sea Cucumber is Mediated by a Blue Light‐Sensitive R‐Opsin

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 58, 19 October 2026.
The sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota detects blue and adjacent wavelengths of light via an r‐opsin with a maximum absorption at 459 nm. In the oral tentacles, papillae, and tube feet, distinct light‐sensing structures with specialized morphologies are formed, constituting a unique pentaradial and bilateral combined photoreception system.

Sensitive environmental DNA detection via lateral flow assay (dipstick)—A case study on corallivorous crown‐of‐thorns sea star (Acanthaster cf. solaris) detection

Environmental DNA, 2021
Environmental DNA (eDNA) represents an emerging opportunity for species monitoring in the marine environment. One aspect that poses challenges is the ability to detect target DNA without the complexity of specialized laboratory equipment. Lateral flow is

Putative chemosensory receptors are differentially expressed in the sensory organs of male and female crown-of-thorns starfish, Acanthaster planci

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Chemosensation is a critical signalling process for all organisms and is achieved through the interaction between chemosensory receptors and their ligands.

A Biomimetic Starfish‐Inspired Magnetic Soft Robot with Ultrasound Monitoring for Targeted Inflammatory Bowel Disease Therapy

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 8, August 2026.
This work introduces a starfish‐inspired magnetic soft robot for localized, long‐term inflammatory bowel disease therapy. Featuring biomimetic multi‐arm microspines and magnetic actuation, it navigates the gastrointestinal tract, adheres firmly, and releases drugs on demand, monitored by ultrasound, with validated biosafety and ex vivo therapeutic ...

Effects of larvae density and food concentration on Crown-of-Thorns seastar (Acanthaster cf. solaris) development in an automated flow-through system

Scientific Reports, 2018
Coral-eating Crown-of-Thorns Sea stars (Acanthaster spp.) are major contributors to coral reef loss in the Indo-Pacific region. A release from food limitation of their planktotrophic larvae through enhanced pelagic productivity is one of the main ...
