Spider Webs, Soil or Leaf Swabs to Detect Environmental DNA From Terrestrial Vertebrates: What Is the Best Substrate?

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 8, November 2025.
ABSTRACT As human activities drive biodiversity decline, effective biomonitoring is more crucial than ever to track species distribution changes and inform conservation and restoration actions. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding has emerged as a promising tool for the simultaneous detection of multiple taxa. However, while substrates play a crucial

Macroecological and Biogeographic Patterns of Kinorhyncha in the Iberian Peninsula

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Biogeography and macroecology aim to understand the processes that determine patterns in nature. In the marine environment, most of what we know has been documented for fish and macrobenthic organisms. As a result, this knowledge is negatively biased towards smaller benthic organisms, including meiofauna.

Seismic Disturbance, Productivity and Depth Shape Hadal Benthic Habitats and Biodiversity in the Japan, Ryukyu and Izu‐Ogasawara Trenches (Northwest Pacific Ocean)

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim This study characterises benthic habitats and associated biodiversity in three Japanese subduction trenches, and explores the effects of trench‐specific differences in large‐scale seismic events, disturbance and productivity regimes on habitat structure and assemblage composition.

Species delimitation in Amblyosyllis (Annelida, Syllidae)

open access: yesPLOS 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 appendices.

First mitochondrial genomes of Capitellidae and Opheliidae (Annelida) and their phylogenetic placement

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2022
The complete mitochondrial genomes of Notomastus sp. (15,776 bp) (Annelida: Capitellidae) and Armandia sp. (18,538 bp) (Annelida: Opheliidae) were assembled for the first time. A group II intron (303 bp) was found in cox1 of Notomastus sp. A phylogenetic

Environmental Filtering Maintains Macroinvertebrate Diversity in the Upper Jinsha River

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 10, October 2025.
Macroinvertebrate community structure differed significantly among water bodies. Species and functional diversity are higher in tributaries than in mainstems, whereas phylogenetic diversity shows no significant spatial differences. The macroinvertebrate community in the upper Jinsha River are mainly deterministic processes.
