Characterization of eyes, photoreceptors, and opsins in developmental stages of the arrow worm Spadella cephaloptera (Chaetognatha). [PDF]
J Exp Zool B Mol Dev Evol, 2023 The phylogenetic position of chaetognaths, or arrow worms, has been debated for decades, however recently they have been grouped into the Gnathifera, a sister clade to all other Spiralia.

Cambrian carbonaceous protoconodonts and the early fossil record of the Chaetognatha. [PDF]
Proc Biol SciFossil remains from the early Cambrian Period suggest an ancient origin for the phylum Chaetognatha. As macrofossils, Cambrian chaetognaths are restricted to just a few Konservat-Lagerstätten sites, yet the dispersed grasping spines characteristic of ...

Pathways of Pelagic Connectivity: Eukrohnia hamata (Chaetognatha) in the Arctic Ocean
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 The dramatic warming of the Arctic Ocean will impact pelagic ecosystems in complex ways, including shifting patterns of species distribution and abundance, and altering migration pathways and population connectivity.

Role of arrowworm Sagitta elegans (Chaetognatha) in plankton communities of the western Bering Sea
Известия ТИНРО, 2021 Arrowworm Saggita elegans is one of the important and abundant species in zooplankton communities of the western Bering Sea. Interannual variability of their biomass is considered on the data of long-term surveys conducted in 1986–2018, the species ...

Unveiling pelagic-benthic coupling associated with the biological carbon pump in the Fram Strait (Arctic Ocean) [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsSettling aggregates transport organic matter from the ocean surface to the deep sea and seafloor. Though plankton communities impact carbon export, how specific organisms and their interactions affect export efficiency is unknown.
