Corallimorpharians (Anthozoa: Corallimorpharia) from the Argentinean Sea [PDF]

Zootaxa, 2019
Corallimorpharians are a relative small group of anthozoan cnidarians, also known as jewel sea anemones. They resemble actiniarian sea anemones in lacking a skeleton and being solitary, but resemble scleractinian corals in external and internal morphology, and they are considered to be the sister group of the stony corals.

The first Arctic conspicuously coloured Pleusymtes (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Pleustidae) associated with sea anemones in the Barents Sea

European Journal of Taxonomy, 2022
The article presents a potentially obligate association of a pleustid amphipod of the genus Pleusymtes (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Pleustidae) with the large sea anemone Urticina eques (Gosse, 1858) (Anthozoa: Actiniaria: Actiniidae) from shallow waters of ...

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

Conservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Insights into the Toxicological Properties of a Low Molecular Weight Fraction from Zoanthus sociatus (Cnidaria)

Marine Drugs, 2013
The phylum Cnidaria is an ancient group of venomous animals, specialized in the production and delivery of toxins. Many species belonging to the class Anthozoa have been studied and their venoms often contain a group of peptides, less than 10 kDa, that ...

Extent, characteristics and policy applications of Key Biodiversity Areas

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 4, Page 1735-1759, August 2026.
ABSTRACT A global standard for the identification of Key Biodiversity Areas (KBAs) was published 10 years ago to provide a unified set of criteria for identifying ‘sites of significance for the global persistence of biodiversity’. We review the initiative's origins, the KBA identification process, characteristics of the current network, threats, policy

On Shell Closure and Beyond: Classification and Functional Interpretation of Chela Types in Paguroidea (Decapoda)

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 8, August 2026.
MicroCT technology and 3D shape analysis were used to classify paguroid chelae into six distinct shape types: compact, sturdy, elongate, scutiform, discoid, and compact. Each type is linked to characteristic biological roles: paired semidiscoid chelae enable symmetrical shelter closure; scutiform and discoid chelae support one‐sided shelter closure ...

Phylogenetics, systematics and biogeography of deep-sea Pennatulacea (Anthozoa: Octocorallia): evidence from molecules and morphology

, 2008
Despite its extreme environmental conditions, the deep sea harbours a unique andspecies-rich fauna of mostly unknown age and phylogeny. Pennatulids (Anthozoa:Octocorallia) are a group whose taxonomy and phylogenetic relationships remain poorlyknown and ...

Functional Analysis of Ligand‐Gated Chloride Channels in a Cnidarian Sheds Light on the Evolution of Inhibitory Signaling

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 41, 22 July 2026.
We uncover a large variety of putative inhibitory ligand‐gated ion channels (LGICs) in the phylum Cnidaria, the sister group to all bilaterian animals. Phylogenetic analysis suggests a complex evolutionary history of inhibitory LGICs with diverse neurotransmitter ligands.
