Improved phylogenetic resolution within Siphonophora (Cnidaria) with implications for trait evolution

bioRxiv, 2018
Siphonophores are a diverse group of hydrozoans (Cnidaria) that are found at all depths of the ocean - from the surface, like the familiar Portuguese man of war, to the deep sea. Siphonophores play an important role in ocean ecosystems, and are among the

Morphology and Molecular Phylogenetic Analysis of Deep-Sea Purple Gorgonians (Octocorallia: Victorgorgiidae) from Seamounts in the Tropical Western Pacific, with Description of Three New Species

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Members of Scleraxonia Studer, 1887 are one of the most dominant megafaunal taxa on seamounts, but their diversity and spatial distribution are poorly known in the tropical Western Pacific.

Cryptic Diversity and Genetic Differentiation of Mesophotic Hydroids in the Southwestern Indian Ocean

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.
To assess whether hydroids (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa) are good candidates to test the Deep Reef Refuge Hypothesis and particularly the vertical connectivity component, we analysed the genetic diversity and structure of seven species sampled across euphotic and mesophotic depths around Mayotte and Reunion in the southwestern Indian Ocean.

Questioning the rise of gelatinous zooplankton in the World's oceans [PDF]

, 2012
During the past several decades, high numbers of gelatinous zooplankton species have been reported in many estuarine and coastal ecosystems. Coupled with media-driven public perception, a paradigm has evolved in which the global ocean ecosystems are ...

Role of Peptides in Skeletal Muscle Wasting: A Scoping Review

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 6, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Systemic muscle wasting is a prevalent condition that predicts adverse health outcomes in aging and disease. Despite its clinical relevance, the development of predictive biomarkers and effective pharmacological therapies remains limited. Peptides have recently gained attention for their diverse bioactive functions, positioning them

Why Homoscleromorph Sponges Have Ciliated Epithelia: Evidence for an Ancestral Role in Mucociliary Driven Particle Flux

Journal of Experimental Zoology Part B: Molecular and Developmental Evolution, Volume 344, Issue 8, Page 505-516, December 2025.
Epithelia are typically ciliated, except in sponges. Of all Porifera only Homoscleromorphs have motile cilia on their epithelia. Our data highlight the presence of cilia and mucociliary particle transport as a common feature of metazoa and a secondary loss in other sponge lineages.
