Regeneration mechanisms in Syllidae (Annelida)
Regeneration, 2018 Syllidae is one of the most species‐rich groups within Annelida, with a wide variety of reproductive modes and different regenerative processes. Syllids have striking ability to regenerate their body anteriorly and posteriorly, which in many species is ...

Species delimitation in Amblyosyllis (Annelida, Syllidae)
PLOS ONE, 2019 Amblyosyllis is a worldwide distributed group of annelids mainly found in coastal environments. It is well known among the polychaete specialists mostly because of its notable beauty, showing bright colourful patterns and outstanding long and coiled ...

Limnology and Oceanography, EarlyView., 2023 Abstract Compiling trait information promotes discovery and innovation in using trait‐based approaches in ecology. Various zooplankton trait datasets are stored in unlinked data repositories, in diverse data structures, and have varying levels of complexity.

Molecular Ecology Resources, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract Despite recent advances in high‐throughput DNA sequencing technologies, a lack of locally relevant DNA reference databases limits the potential for DNA‐based monitoring of biodiversity for conservation and biosecurity applications. Museums and national collections represent a compelling source of authoritatively identified genetic material for

Effects of water temperature on freshwater macroinvertebrates: a systematic review
Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 1, Page 191-221, February 2023., 2023 ABSTRACT Water temperature is one of the main abiotic factors affecting the structure and functioning of aquatic ecosystems and its alteration can have important effects on biological communities. Macroinvertebrates are excellent bio‐indicators and have been used for decades to assess the status of aquatic ecosystems as a result of environmental ...

Macroevolutionary patterns in marine hermaphroditism
Evolution, Volume 76, Issue 12, Page 3014-3025, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Most plants and many animals are hermaphroditic; whether the same forces are responsible for hermaphroditism in both groups is unclear. The well‐established drivers of hermaphroditism in plants (e.g., seed dispersal potential, pollination mode) have analogues in animals (e.g., larval dispersal potential, fertilization mode), allowing us to ...

Characterization factors for ocean acidification impacts on marine biodiversity
Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 2069-2079, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Rising greenhouse gas emissions do not only accelerate climate change but also make the ocean more acidic. This applies above all to carbon dioxide (CO2). Lower ocean pH levels threaten marine ecosystems and especially strongly calcifying species.

A new thalassematid echiuran worm from the Middle Ordovician Castle Bank Biota of Wales, UK [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2023 chiurans (spoonworms) are a very distinctive group of polychaete annelids that had long been considered to constitute a separate phylum. Their fossil record is extremely limited, although trace fossils that have been suggested to be attributable to ...

Biology, 2020 Terebelliformia—“spaghetti worms” and their allies—are speciose and ubiquitous marine annelids but our understanding of how their morphological and ecological diversity evolved is hampered by an uncertain delineation of lineages and their phylogenetic ...
