Highlights in Seagrasses’ Phylogeny, Physiology, and Metabolism: What Makes Them Special? [PDF]
The marine seagrasses form an ecological and therefore paraphyletic group of marine hydrophilus angiosperms which evolved three to four times from land plants towards an aquatic and marine existence. Their taxonomy is not yet solved on the species level and below due to their reduced morphology.

New 8-Hydroxybriaranes from the Gorgonian Coral Junceella fragilis (Ellisellidae) [PDF]
Three new 8-hydroxybriaranes—fragilides R−T (1−3) were obtained from a sea whip gorgonian coral Junceella fragilis. The structures of briaranes 1−3 were elucidated by using spectroscopic methods, including 1D (1H and 13C NMR), 2D (
