Vulnerability of tropical fish communities across depth in the central Indian Ocean

Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 6, December 2025.
Abstract Coral reefs and their fish communities below scuba diving depth (>30 m), in mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) (∼30–150 m), in rariphotic (150–300 m), and in upper bathyal waters (300–500 m) are often underexplored, especially in the Indian Ocean.

Genetic identification of eggs from four species of Ophichthidae and Congridae (Anguilliformes) in the northern East China Sea.

PLoS ONE, 2018
We report the first genetic identification of eggs of four species of Anguilliformes caught in the northern East China Sea during August 2016, where leptocephali and adults have been collected.

Swimming Through Parameter Subspaces of a Simple Anguilliform Swimmer [PDF]

Integrative and Comparative Biology, 2020
SynopsisComputational scientists have investigated swimming performance across a multitude of different systems for decades. Most models depend on numerous model input parameters and performance is sensitive to those parameters. In this article, parameter subspaces are qualitatively identified in which there exists enhanced swimming performance for an ...

First record of Facciola’s sorcerer, Facciolella oxyrhyncha(Actinopterygii, Anguilliformes, Nettastomatidae) from the Aegean Sea [PDF]

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2010
A specimen of Facciola’s sorcerer,Facciolella oxyrhyncha(Bellotti, 1883), was caught for the first time in the central Aegean Sea, on January 2007 by a commercial bottom trawler at a depth of about 230 m on the muddy bottom of Southern Sigacik ...

From muddy marvels to hidden landscapes: Diverse visitor experiences in Tasmanian wetlands and their implications for enhancing human–nature connections

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2759-2776, November 2025.
Abstract Globally, wetland conservation is impeded by a lack of public awareness, appreciation and advocacy for these conservation‐dependant environments. To address this issue, the global policy response has increasingly focused on provisioning meaningful experiences for people in wetlands.

Genetic identification of marine eels (Anguilliformes: Congroidei) through DNA barcoding from Kasimedu fishing harbour

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
Along with the mysteries of their body's shape like snakes, marine eels have fascinated biologists for centuries. Information on the molecular taxonomy of marine eels is scarce from the Southeast Indian region and hence, the present study aimed to ...

Patterns and Processes of Genomic Evolution Inferred From the Ten Smallest Vertebrate Genomes

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 38, October 13, 2025.
By integrating phylogenetic relationships derived from nuclear DNA with population genetic analyses across ten pufferfish species, the genetic differentiation mechanisms underpinning the radiative speciation of the most compact vertebrate genomes has elucidated.

Conserved Sequence Identification Within Large Genomic Datasets Using ‘Unikseq2’: Application in Environmental DNA Assay Development

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 7, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Identification of conserved genomic sequences and their utilisation as anchor points for clade detection and/or characterisation is a mainstay in ecological studies. For environmental DNA (eDNA) assays, effective processing of large genomic datasets is crucial for reliable species detection in biodiversity monitoring.

Form and function of anguilliform swimming

Biological Reviews
ABSTRACTAnguilliform swimmers are long and narrow animals that propel themselves by undulating their bodies. Observations in nature and recent investigations suggest that anguilliform swimming is highly efficient. However, understanding the underlying reasons for the efficiency of this type of locomotion requires interdisciplinary studies spanning from
