Networks in Aquatic Communities Collapse Upon Neonicotinoid‐Induced Stress
We employed an experimental approach with 36 naturally established freshwater ecosystems exposed to increasing field realistic concentrations of the neonicotinoid thiacloprid. Upon exposure, we found severe degradation of species co‐occurrence networks and coincident ecosystem functioning.

Earthworms (Clitellata, Acanthodrilidae) of the mountains of Eastern Jamaica
AbstractFourteen species new to science are described from material collected at several sites in the Blue Mountains and the John Crow Mountains of eastern Jamaica, doubling the known endemic Jamaican earthworm fauna. New data on Dichogaster montecyanensis (Sims) are provided.

New acanthodrilid species from Madagascar (Clitellata, Acanthodrilidae)
During collecting trips to Madagascar in the last decade several Acanthodrilidae sensu lato species were collected. The newly acquired material expresses high variability of the excretory system containing meroic, holoic vesiculate and holoic avesiculate species.

Phylogeny of Annelida (Lophotrochozoa): total-evidence analysis of morphology and six genes
Background Annelida is one of the major protostome phyla, whose deep phylogeny is very poorly understood. Recent molecular phylogenies show that Annelida may include groups once considered separate phyla (Pogonophora, Echiurida, and Sipunculida) and that

En contraste con los enormes esfuerzos realizados por caracterizar la fauna y flora de Costa Rica, con excepción de algunos registros aislados, muy poco se sabe sobre las sanguijuelas (Annelida: Clitellata) en este país.

Many species of Naididae possess a pair of pigmented eyes. Within Clitellata, eyes are generally present in Hirudinea, whereas Naididae are the only oligochaete taxon having these sense organs. The eyes of Naididae are epidermal structures and consist of a multicellular pigment cup in which a single row of five to six photoreceptor cells is embedded ...
