The complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater crab Bottapotamon lingchuanense Türkay and Dai 1997 (Decapoda: Brachyura: Potamoidea)

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021
We report the complete mitochondrial genome of Bottapotamon lingchuanense for the first time, which is found to be 17,612 base pairs in length, and contains 13 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 2 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, 22 transfer RNA (tRNA), and 1 non ...

A preliminary study on the feeding regime of European pilchard (Sardina pilchardus Walbaum 1792) in Izmir Bay, Turkey, Eastern Aegean Sea [PDF]

, 2005
The gut contents of Sardina pilchardus specimens captured in Izmir Bay were examined in order to determine their feeding regimes. Of the 365 stomachs examined, 321 (87.95%) contained food and 44 (12.05%) were empty. Analysis of gut contents verified that

Molecular Phylogeny, Species Delimitation, and Biogeography of the Varunid Crab Genus Metaplax (Crustacea, Varunidae)

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 504-518, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The Indo‐West Pacific genus Metaplax comprises 11 recognised species inhabiting intertidal mudflats, some adjacent to mangroves. To resolve long‐standing uncertainties, we analysed mitochondrial (COI, 16S) and nuclear (28S) markers. Phylogenetic analyses recovered Metaplax as monophyletic and resolved four well‐supported clades—the M ...

Temperature effects on zoeal morphometric traits and intraspecific variability in the hairy crab Cancer setosus across latitude [PDF]

, 2009
International audiencePhenotypic plasticity is an important but often ignored ability that enables organisms, within species-specific physiological limits, to respond to gradual or sudden extrinsic changes in their environment.

Discard Survival of Thornback Ray (Raja clavata), Undulate Ray (Raja undulata) and Small‐Eyed Ray (Raja microocellata) in Northeast Atlantic Inshore Fisheries

Fisheries Management and Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 2, Page 355-367, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Quantifying discard survival of species is crucial for effective fishery management. Electronic tags and visual health assessments were used to estimate postrelease survival of commercially caught thornback ray (Raja clavata), undulate ray (Raja undulata) and small‐eyed ray (Raja microocellata) from Northeast Atlantic inshore fisheries ...

Safeguarding a Flagship Species: Integrated Surveillance of Cross‐Species Pathogen Transmission in Giant Panda Ecosystems

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Emerging infectious diseases increasingly threaten giant pandas and cohabiting species. This review analyzes pathogen transmission risks from domestic animals, wildlife, and vectors and proposes an integrated genomic surveillance framework for early warning and biodiversity conservation.
