Mitochondrial genome of Sabella spallanzanii (Gmelin, 1791) (Sabellida: Sabellidae)
We report the mitochondrial genome of Sabella spallanzanii, an invasive Mediterranean sabellid introduced to Australia and New Zealand. The mitogenome is 15,581 bp long and consists of 38 genes, including 13 protein coding genes, two rRNA genes, and 23 ...

A probable oligochaete from an Early Triassic Lagerstätte of the southern Cis-Urals and its evolutionary implications [PDF]
Oligochaetes, despite their important role in terrestrial ecosystems and a tremendous biomass, are extremely rare fossils. The palaeontological record of these worms is restricted to some cocoons, presumable trace fossils and a few body fossils the most ...

An EST screen from the annelid Pomatoceros lamarckii reveals patterns of gene loss and gain in animals [PDF]
Background. Since the drastic reorganisation of the phylogeny of the animal kingdom into three major clades of bilaterians; Ecdysozoa, Lophotrochozoa and Deuterostomia, it became glaringly obvious that the selection of model systems with extensive ...

Review of the fauna associated with wild and farmed mussels and oysters in the Mediterranean
ABSTRACT Mussels and oysters are important ecosystem engineers which modify the physical and chemical characteristics of the environment and create habitats that support highly diverse associated communities. In the Mediterranean Sea, the native Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis and the European flat oyster Ostrea edulis, together the ...

Estuarine benthic diversity declines with temperature across a tropical–temperate gradient
Estuarine benthic sediments are important habitats that support ecosystem health and productivity, but the drivers of large‐scale patterns in benthic diversity are not well documented. Using 18S amplicon sequencing of 425 sediment DNA samples from estuaries spanning 20° of latitude along Australia's east coast, we assessed tropical–temperate patterns ...

Is DNA metabarcoding an option for formaldehyde‐preserved zooplankton time series?
Abstract The recovery of amplifiable DNA from formaldehyde‐fixed (FF) zooplankton samples has long been considered problematic, but advances in degraded‐DNA retrieval have renewed interest in FF samples. To access the information stored in long‐term zooplankton time series, we evaluated methods for extracting amplifiable DNA from community samples ...
