ABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding of zooplankton biodiversity is used increasingly for monitoring global ocean ecosystems, requiring comparable data from different research laboratories and ocean regions. The MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG‐ICE) was designed to examine1 and analyse patterns of variation of DNA sequence data resulting from multi ...

The taxonomy of the primnoid genus Amphilaphis Studer and Wright in Studer, 1887 has been in a confused state for a long time and a revision of the species included in that genus has become a necessity.

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.

Role of Peptides in Skeletal Muscle Wasting: A Scoping Review
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

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.

Neuropeptides are ancient neuronal signaling molecules that have diversified across Cnidaria (e.g., jellyfish, corals, and sea anemones) and its sister group Bilateria (e.g., vertebrates, insects, and worms).

Abstract Although gelatinous zooplankton are key members of marine ecosystems and food webs, their trophic ecology is poorly described across the deep pelagic. We used stable carbon (bulk tissue) and nitrogen (bulk tissue and amino acid) isotope analysis to estimate the trophic positions (TPs) of abundant gelatinous zooplankton (chaetognaths ...

Additional notes on Clathrozoella drygalskii (Vanhöffen, 1910) (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa)
Study of the material of Clathrozoella drygalskii (Vanhöffen, 1910), a hydroid initially referred to the thecate hydroids but probably better classified in athecate hydroids along with such families as Hydractiniidae and Solanderiidae, has been continued

Wetland biodiversity in Aotearoa New Zealand: an eDNA perspective on exotic and non‐exotic species
ABSTRACT Invasive species threaten biodiversity in Aotearoa New Zealand. In wetlands − significant sites that provide an array of ecosystem and cultural services but represent <10% of their original extent − invasive species can affect hydrological function, nutrient regimes and overall ecological functionality.
