Bryozoans in Archaeology

open access: yesInternet Archaeology, 2013
Bryozoans (Phylum Bryozoa) are colony-forming invertebrates found in marine and freshwater contexts. Many are calcified, while some others have chitinous buds, and so have archaeological potential, yet they are seldom investigated, perhaps due to ...

Along the Benthic to Holoplanktonic Continuum: Seafloor Affinity Increases Distance‐Decay Rates Among Abyssal Communities

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Marine species ranges are often large, contributing to relatively high community similarity over space, with decreased ranges expected among taxa that have lower dispersal and/or higher substrate requirements. We tested for a weakening of biogeographic structuring among dispersing abyssal taxa along the benthic to holoplanktonic habitat ...

Proliferative Kidney Disease and Viral Pathogens in Wild Brown Trout (Salmo trutta) Populations in the Czech Republic

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, Volume 49, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Populations of wild brown trout (Salmo trutta) have been in long‐term decline across Central Europe, including the Czech Republic, with multiple factors, such as habitat alteration, climate change, predation and emerging diseases, implicated.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater bryozoan Pectinatella magnifica (Phylactolaemata: Plumatellida) assembled from next-generation sequencing data

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
The complete mitochondrial genome of the freshwater bryozoan Pectinatella magnifica was sequenced. The circular mitochondrial genome is 17,539 bp and consists of 13 protein-coding, two ribosomal RNA, and 22 transfer RNA genes (GenBank accession no ...

The Phylum Bryozoa: From Biology to Biomedical Potential

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2020
Less than one percent of marine natural products characterized since 1963 have been obtained from the phylum Bryozoa which, therefore, still represents a huge reservoir for the discovery of bioactive metabolites with its ~6000 described species.

Cheilostome Bryozoa from Penang and Langkawi, Malaysia

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Taxonomy, 2015
Twenty-three species of cheilostome bryozoans are described from the Malaysian islands of Penang and Langkawi based on a brief reconnaisance survey of shore localities.

eDNA Metabarcoding Enhances Aquaculture Impact Monitoring Across Microbial and Benthic Metazoan Communities in Understudied Tropical Environments

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 4, July‐August 2026.
Benthic community responses to aquaculture organic matter enrichment remain poorly understood in tropical low‐input farms typical of scattered island socio‐ecosystems. Detecting these responses requires sensitive approaches such as eDNA metabarcoding across multiple biological groups.

A new alien bryozoan Celleporaria brunnea (Hincks, 1884) in the Aegean Sea (eastern Mediterranean)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2007
The ascophoran Bryozoa Celleporaria brunnea, a new record for the Mediterranean Sea, was found on Mytilus galloprovincialis collected in the inner part of Izmir Bay (Aegean Sea, Turkey) in September 2004.

Surface complexity and gastropod exclusion drive colonization of an intertidal eco‐engineered structure

open access: yesJournal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 7, July 2026.
Habitat complexity and grazing by invertebrate molluscs shaped community structure and ecosystem functioning on eco‐engineered substrates through distinct mechanisms. Increasing structural complexity increased invertebrate species richness with limited effects on macroalgae and carbon flux, while grazer exclusion had strong effects on macroalgal ...

Global Expansion of Ponto‐Caspian Aquatic Invaders: Drivers, Trends and Taxonomic Biases in a Changing World

open access: yesFreshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Biological invasions pose major threats to ecosystems, with aquatic habitats particularly vulnerable due to high connectivity and biodiversity. The Ponto‐Caspian region is widely recognised as a major source of highly invasive non‐native aquatic species, yet a global synthesis of their spatial, taxonomic and temporal invasion patterns has been
