Review of the Septibranchia (Mollusca: Pelecypoda) from the deep sea of Campos Basin, Brazil: Family Lyonsiellidae, with description of a new species

Scientia Marina, 2010
A review is made of the members of Lyonsiellidae present on the continental slope (750-2000 m) of Campos Basin (22°S), off south-eastern Brazil. A total of six taxa are recognized. Two taxa were previously unknown to science (Lyonsiella pipoca n.

Diel and Artificial Light Effects on Nearshore Communities Revealed by eDNA Metabarcoding

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Environmental DNA revealed rapid, taxon‐specific community reorganization across diel and artificial light conditions in a nearshore marine ecosystem. Distinct responses among trophic groups indicate that artificial light at night reshapes predator–prey interactions and community structure within 30 min of exposure.

Metabarcoding of Broad‐Diet Nototheniid Fish Stomachs Reveals Newly Detected Antarctic Parasite Signals and Potential Host Associations

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Using 18S rDNA metabarcoding of stomach contents from two Antarctic nototheniid fishes, we detected 242 parasite OTUs. Protists dominated diversity, metazoans dominated abundance, and depth structured assemblages. Novel parasite–host associations and previously unreported pathogenic protists highlight fish metabarcoding as a tool for biodiversity and ...

Individual and combined effects of shading and habitat complexity on benthic macroinvertebrate communities in a mesocosm stream experiment (São Paulo, Brazil)

Restoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 5, July 2026.
Abstract Introduction Agricultural activities are a major driver of biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation in subtropical streams, often altering macroinvertebrate community structure and associated ecosystem functions. Although restoration strategies increasingly target these impacts, the relative importance of riparian shading and in‐stream ...

Profundum solomoni (Amphipoda: Uristidae) Exhibits a Disjunct Geographic Distribution at Hadal Depths Across the San Cristobal Trench, Santa Cruz Trench and Nova Canton Trough

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 639-651, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Hadal environments (> 6000 m ocean depths) are often viewed as isolated locations with high species endemism due to limited dispersal. However, molecular studies continue to reveal greater complexity that questions historical perceptions. Recent population genetic studies focused on scavenging amphipods have identified broadly distributed ...

Progress and Challenges in Phylogenomics and Genomics of Lophotrochozoa/Spiralia

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 4, Page 521-544, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Lophotrochozoa is one of the three major bilaterian groups comprising more than half of the bilaterian phyla. Lophotrochozoa includes among others Mollusca, Annelida, Platyhelminthes and Rotifera. Despite representing such a large proportion of animal diversity, they are historically understudied and genomic resources have been scarce. However,

Bivalvia biostratigraphy of Aksütlü region (Hekimhan, NW Malatya, Türkiye) and paleoclimatological interpretations

Bulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration
In this study, Early Miocene bivalve fauna obtained from Hekimhan Aksütlü locality is presented. Abundant and well-preserved ostreid samples are interesting in the area where molluscs have notbeen studied before.

Sampling effort to characterize estuarine macroinfaunal communities in patchy habitats

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Estuarine benthic macroinfauna have aggregated, patchy distributions, making accurate community measurements dependent upon sampling scales. The purpose of this study is to determine the appropriate core sizes and sampling effort needed to characterize benthic infaunal communities in Corpus Christi Bay, Texas, USA.
