Egg-laying hormone peptides in the aplysiidae family

Journal of Experimental Biology, 1999
ABSTRACT The neuropeptidergic bag cells of the marine mollusc Aplysia californica are involved in the egg-laying behavior of the animal. These neurosecretory cells synthesize an egg-laying hormone (ELH) precursor protein, yielding multiple bioactive peptides, including ELH, several bag cell peptides (BCP) and acidic peptide (AP).

Phylogeny of the Aplysiidae (Gastropoda, Opisthobranchia) with new aspects of the evolution of seahares

Zoologica Scripta, 2004
The phylogeny of the Aplysiidae is investigated, based on 37 morphological and histological characters polarized a priori by outgroup comparison. The Aplysiidae represents a monophyletic taxon comprising two distinct clades: Aplysiinae and Dolabellinae + Dolabriferinae + Notarchinae.

First record of microplastic in the Brazilian sea hare Aplysia brasiliana Rang, 1828 (Mollusca: Aplysiidae)

Science of the Total Environment, 2023
The presence of plastic debris in the marine environment has reached massive levels in the past decades. In marine environments, microplastics can exist for hundreds of years and the presence of microplastics in this environment has been reported since 1970 and since then has been considered ubiquitous. Mollusks are being used as microplastic pollution

Observations on development, larval growth and metamorphosis of four species of aplysiidae (gastropoda: Opisthobranchia) in laboratory culture

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1977
Abstract The development of simple, reliable techniques for the laboratory culture of aplysiid gastropods through their complete life cycle, has enabled us to study the larval biology, metamorphosis, and early juvenile development of these animals. Egg masses, duration of the embryonic phase, veligers, and larval growth and development are described ...

The Ring Doesn't Mean a Thing: Molecular Data Suggest a New Taxonomy for Two Pacific Species of Sea Hares (Mollusca: Opisthobranchia, Aplysiidae)

Pacific Science, 2013
Morphological and molecular data obtained from Hawaiian sea hares identified as Aplysia dactylomela (Rang) and Aplysia pulmonica (Gould) revealed that they belong to the same species. A review of the literature shows that the name A. pulmonica has been used inconsistently, but the specimens we examined match the original description of the species. Two
