A systematic account of the chaetognatha of the Indian coastal waters, with observations on their seasonal fluctuations along the Malabar Coast. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1952
Material for this investigation was collected mainly from the triweekly plankton hauls from the foreshore and offshore waters, off West Hill, three miles north of Calicut in the Malabar District along the West Coast of India (750 46' E. and 110 17' N.)

Characterizing Rocky Intertidal Biodiversity Using Environmental DNA Metabarcoding From Local to National Scales

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
We assess the resolution of eDNA metabarcoding for detecting rocky intertidal taxa across three spatial scales—national, regional, and local. Distinct eDNA signals were observed at each scale, with community differences more pronounced at broader scales.

Abundancia y biomasa de Chaetognatha (Aphragmophora) en la zona pelágica del Pacífico Colombiano

open access: yesRevista U.D.C.A Actualidad & Divulgación Científica, 2018
Dada la importancia de los quetognatos por su alto impacto depredador y su rol en la transferencia energética desde el fitoplancton hasta niveles tróficos superiores, por primera vez, se evaluó en el Océano Pacífico Colombiano (OPC) su biomasa seca ...

Limited Dispersal of Benthic Environmental DNA From a Subtropical Mesophotic Shelf‐Edge Bank

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
We investigated the vertical and horizontal dispersion of eDNA away from an isolated mesophotic coral reef (Bright Bank) in stratified offshore waters. We found that vertical transport of benthic eDNA was limited by water column stratification and that the prevalence of eDNA from benthic invertebrates declined with horizontal distance away from the ...

Estudios sobre invertebrados de Colombia I.- Presencia de los géneros krohnitta y pterosagitta (phylum chaetognatha) en el litoral Caribe de Colombia Estudios sobre invertebrados de Colombia I.- Presencia de los géneros krohnitta y pterosagitta (phylum chaetognatha) en el litoral Caribe de Colombia

open access: yesCaldasia, 1966
In this paper three species of the Phylum Chaetognatha (Krohnitta Pacifica, K. subtilis and Pterosagitta draco) are recorded by the first time from the Caribbean shore of Colombia. An statistical analysis is given for selected characters in P. draco.

Benthic Environmental DNA Metabarcoding Reveals the Response Mechanism of Metazoan Communities to Artificial Reef Habitats

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
Our study used benthic eDNA metabarcoding to assess metazoan biodiversity, community structure, and network stability in shallow and deep artificial reefs across seasons. Results revealed distinct spatial and seasonal patterns in diversity and co‐occurrence networks, with environmental factors like temperature, nitrite, and DO driving community ...

Biomass‐to‐volume ratio as a central continuous functional trait for marine zooplankton

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography, Volume 70, Issue 9, Page 2673-2687, September 2025.
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton are an important component of many ecosystems and important for ecosystem structure and carbon cycling. However, this group is generally not considered in biogeochemical models. Here we investigate the biomass‐to‐volume ratio as an underappreciated “master trait” that allows for the incorporation of a large diversity of ...

Updated list of alien macrozoobenthic species along the Syrian coast

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aquatic Biology, 2019
Marine biodiversity along the Syrian coast is affected by climate change-related temperature increase leading to the migration and entrance of alien species, especially from the Suez Canal (biological invasion).
