Amphipholis misera (Koehler, 1899) Material examined. Twelve specimens; St. DW6, SW24; 0–15.2 m deep; sand and rock, sand/seagrass. Remarks. The specimens were very small in size. According to the key of A. M. Clark & Rowe (1971: 99), this species can be distinguished from Amphipholis squamata (Delle Chiaje, 1828) which is one of the most widely and ...

Ecosystem monitoring is essential for preventing biodiversity loss, and in the Mar Menor lagoon (SE Spain), where intensive agriculture has led to eutrophication and mass mortality of marine fauna, it is critical for assessing the status of flora and fauna and informing conservation actions.

This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding of superficial water samples to assess benthic invertebrate biodiversity in the Venice Lagoon. Sampling from surface water revealed 80 taxonomic units, mostly benthic species, including several invasive ones, with significant spatial and seasonal variations in community composition.

Concordance and drivers of marine spatial structure determined using genogeographic clustering
Abstract Aim In order to provide a more comprehensive, community‐level understanding of marine gene flow and connectivity, we wished to first identify geographic regions of common spatial genetic divergence across multiple species along a southern temperate coastline, and then to determine which biological and ecological factors best explain the ...
