Universal and Lineage‐Specific Patterns in the Distribution of ECOD Domain Homology Groups Across Superkingdoms

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proteins are built from modular domains that serve as fundamental units of structure and evolution. While individual domains have been extensively cataloged, their collective distribution across the lineages of life has remained poorly resolved.

Complete mitochondrial genome of Atergatis integerrimus (Decapoda, Xanthidae) from the Philippines

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
In this study, a complete mitochondrial genome from the red egg crab, Atergatis integerrimus was sequenced and analyzed. The mitochondrial genome length is 16,333 bp and is composed of 13 protein-coding, two ribosomal RNA and 22 tRNA genes. The structure

Incorporating environmental DNA metabarcoding for improved benthic biodiversity and habitat mapping

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Seafloor imagery is commonly used to collect information about the distribution of benthic organisms in order to generate habitat and biodiversity maps. Recent advances in genomics (e.g., environmental DNA; eDNA) show potential to complement video surveys for habitat mapping, but there have been few examples testing this.

A Review of the Biology and Taxonomy of Freshwater Shrimps of the South American Genus Pseudopalaemon Sollaud, 1911 (Decapoda: Palaemonidae)

open access: yesArthropoda
The palaemonid shrimp genus Pseudopalaemon Sollaud, 1911, is endemic to South America, comprising seven freshwater and low salinity species. This study aimed to compile an overview of the genus, including an illustrated identification key for species and

Fear or feast: small mammal activity increases in the presence of carcasses despite increased threat of predation by black‐backed jackals

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Food acquisition is arguably the most important, and among the riskiest behaviours for most mammals. Carcasses are an ephemeral resource for many scavengers, particularly black‐backed jackals Lupulella mesomelas that prey on small mammals. Landscape of fear theory suggests that prey species should reduce their activity in areas of high predator ...

It’s a Spider-Eat-Spider World: Observations of Nonsexual Cannibalism in the Invasive Jorō Spider Trichonephila clavata

open access: yesArthropoda
Spiders and other arthropods can sometimes consume others of their kind, and this is most often associated with mating activity, whereby females cannibalize males during or after mating, or during mating attempts. Nonsexual cannibalism is less common but

Revision of the thylacocephalan biota from the Upper Triassic Polzberg Konservat-Lagerstätte, Austria [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica
Known for over 140 years, the Upper Triassic Polzberg Konservat-Lagerstätte is an exceptional early Carnian marine assemblage discovered in the Northern Calcareous Alps of Lower Austria. The Polzberg biota is composed of a diverse marine fauna, including

Full‐length transcriptome profiling of true bug mitochondrial genomes reveals the unique transcriptional regulation during insect evolution

open access: yesInsect Science, EarlyView.
The mitogenome was transcribed into complete primary polycistrons on both strands. The heteropteran mitochondrial transcription termination factor (HmTTF) functions as a bidirectional attenuator rather than a terminator, and co‐evolution of HmTTF and the binding sites was observed.

Bristly millipedes (Polyxenida) in Deep-Time Highlight Their Conserved Life Habits for 100 Million Years

open access: yesArthropoda
Pincushion millipedes or bristly millipedes (Polyxenida) are common and widespread around the world, yet we still lack a proper understanding of the life of these elusive animals.
