Small, flat, and gray: Cryptic diversity in chthamalid barnacles in the global context of marine coastal biogeography (Cirripedia: Balanomorpha: Chthamalidae)

, 2020
In the past 40 years, the ability to distinguish phenotypically similar species by using molecular methods has rapidly changed the study of taxonomy, biogeography, and community diversity.

Contribution to the feeding ecology of the banded puffer fish Colomesus psittacus (Tetraodontidae) in north Brazilian mangrove creeks

Brazilian Journal of Biology
Stomach contents were examined from 102 banded puffer, Colomesus psittacus (Tetraodontidae), caught from intertidal mangrove creeks at diurnal neap tides between June and September, 1997 (early dry season) near Bragança (north Brazil).

Articulation and growth of skeletal elements in balanid barnacles (Balanidae, Balanomorpha, Cirripedia)

Royal Society Open Science, 2019
The morphology and ultrastructure of the shells of two balanid species have been examined, paying special attention to the three types of boundaries between plates: (i) radii-parietes, (ii) alae-sheaths, and (iii) parietes-basal plate.

Cryptofauna Associated With the Epilithic Algal Matrix on Subtropical Brazilian Reefs

Austral Ecology, Volume 51, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The epilithic algal matrix (EAM) plays a significant role in the benthic cover of reefs worldwide. In Brazil, the EAM accounts for a substantial proportion of the benthos, and its associated fauna contributes to the majority of the reef's metazoan biodiversity and is an important link into the trophic chain, connecting the production performed

Detecting the symplesiomorphy trap: a multigene phylogenetic analysis of terebelliform annelids [PDF]

, 2011
Background For phylogenetic reconstructions, conflict in signal is a potential problem for tree reconstruction. For instance, molecular data from different cellular components, such as the mitochondrion and nucleus, may be inconsistent with ...

Seasonal Dynamics and Stability of Zooplankton Community in Mytilus coruscus Farming Areas

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Large‐scale mussel farming affects marine plankton, yet the seasonal dynamics and stability of zooplankton community in mussel farms remain poorly understood. To evaluate the seasonal variation of zooplankton community and potential aquaculture impacts, surveys on zooplankton community in mussel farms near Gouqi Island were carried out in October 2022 (
