Observations on the Infection by Kudoa sp. (Myxozoa, Multivalvulida) in fishes caught off Rio Grande, Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil

open access: yesActa Scientiarum: Biological Sciences, 2016
It is reported the parasitization of Kudoa sp. (Myxozoa, Multivalvulida) within the somatic muscles of the fish Odontesthes bonariensis (Valenciennes, 1835), Micropogonias furnieri (Desmarest, 1823) and Mugil liza Valenciennes, 1836, captured off Rio ...

The enigmatic cnidarian Martsaphyton moxi gen. et sp. nov. from the Darriwilian (Middle Ordovician) of Estonia [PDF]

open access: yesEstonian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2020
On the basis of detailed SEM-EDS study and computer tomography scanning, the single specimen of the enigmatic Martsaphyton moxi from the Aseri Stage (Darriwilian; Middle Ordovician) of Estonia, was identified as a member of the phylum Cnidaria and ...

From the sea to DNA barcode: Optimized preservation method for gelatinous zooplankton integrative taxonomy

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Assigning taxonomic identity and thus assessing taxonomic diversity in gelatinous zooplankton is challenging due to their fragility and difficult preservation. Formalin fixation compromises DNA integrity, while flash‐freezing, ethanol, and acetone preservation affect morphological features. In this study, we developed a methodological protocol

Under the cover of darkness: Foraging behaviour increases on cloudy, new moon nights in a pelagic seabird

open access: yesIbis, EarlyView.
While many visual predators feed exclusively during the day, others exploit foraging opportunities at night, although the efficiency with which they do so is strongly influenced by ambient light levels. We investigated the influence of variation in nocturnal light on the foraging behaviour of a small pelagic seabird, the European Storm‐petrel ...

Complete mitochondrial genome of Callogorgia cf. gracilis (Octocorallia: Calcaxonia: Primnoidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
We report the first complete mitochondrial genome of Callogorgia. Callogorgia cf. gracilis isolate DFH32_518B was collected by a remotely operated vehicle at 98 m on McGrail Bank (27.9840725°N, 92.604242°W). The complete mitogenome is 18,937 bp (27.8% A,

Additional notes on Clathrozoella drygalskii (Vanhöffen, 1910) (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2000
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

Challenging Host Specificity: Malacosporean Parasite Dynamics—Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae Beyond Salmonids—An Infection Experiment

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Proliferative Kidney Disease (PKD) is a severe parasitic disease of salmonids caused by the malacosporean endoparasite Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae. In the fish intermediate host, the parasite is disseminated via the circulatory system and ultimately reaches the kidney, where it matures before releasing infective spores into the environment ...

Systematic Review of Parasite Diversity in Wild Freshwater Fishes and Their Host‐Locality Interactions in Türkiye

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This systematic review documented a taxonomically diverse parasite fauna of freshwater fishes across seven geographical regions of Türkiye, encompassing 11 phyla: Acanthocephala, Annelida, Arthropoda, Choanozoa, Ciliophora, Cnidaria, Euglenozoa, Mollusca, Myzozoa, Nematoda, and Platyhelminthes.

Approaches to the ethology of hydroids and medusae (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa)

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2000
The behavioural patterns of 26 species of Antho- and Leptomedusae (with or without medusa stage) were investigated by video recordings. The analysed activities were: answers to mechanical stimuli, prey capture and ingestion, digestion, egestion, and ...

Compound Hypoxia With Heat or Acidification Stress Induces Synergistic and Additive Effects on Coral Physiology

open access: yesGlobal Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Multi‐stressor experiments on three coral species demonstrate hypoxia produces mostly additive effects with acidification but synergistically amplifies physiological stress under elevated temperatures. As global and local environmental change increase compound stress events on coral reefs, distinguishing hypoxia‐driven effects and interactive stressor ...
