The Biodiversity of Peter I Island-The Most Remote Island in the World. [PDF]
Peter I Island is one of the most isolated and least visited islands on earth; lying within the Antarctic Polar Front but over 420 km from continental Antarctica. Here we assess the biodiversity of the island from both previous records and our own BioBlitz in January 2022.

Exceptionally Preserved Setae: A Possible Morphological Synapomorphy of Cambrian Lophotrochozoans. [PDF]
The Lophotrochozoans comprise one of the major groups within the animal kingdom, while the relationships within this group remain unclear. We explored the microstructure and formation of setae and suggest that setae may represent a morphological synapomorphy of lophotrochozoans, which is currently dearth of morpho‐ultrastructure and comparative studies

New occurrences of Malvinokaffric Chonetoidea (Brachiopoda) in the Paraná Basin, Devonian, Brazil
Brachiopods of the superfamily Chonetoidea are abundantly found in Devonian rocks in the Paraná Basin (Brazil). Despite this, only two species were formally known: Pleurochonetes falklandicus and Australostrophia mesembria, while at least 34 other taxa ...

Evolution of the Cdk4/6-Cdkn2 system in invertebrates. [PDF]
Hypothesis on the evolution of the Cdkn2 locus. (a) Loss of Cdkn2 occurred multiple times. (b) Evolution of microsynteny at the Cdkn2 locus. Cdkn2e is a hypothetical transient gene. Abstract The cell cycle is driven by cyclin‐dependent kinases (Cdks). The decision whether the cell cycle proceeds is made during G1 phase, when Cdk4/6 functions.

Brachiopod Fauna from the Deep Mediterranean Sea: Distribution Patterns and Ecological Preferences
Compared to their fossil counterparts, living brachiopods are investigated far less often, due to their occurrence in remote environments such as dark caves or deep environments.
