Notes on Afonsoconus Tucker & Tenorio, 2013 (Gastropoda, Conidae), with description of a new species from the Southwestern Indian Ocean

European Journal of Taxonomy, 2018
Although cone snails are among the most studied group of gastropods, new species are still regularly described. Here, we focus on Afonsoconus Tucker & Tenorio, 2013, a lineage that includes only two species from the Indo-Pacific Ocean.

Venomix: a simple bioinformatic pipeline for identifying and characterizing toxin gene candidates from transcriptomic data [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
The advent of next-generation sequencing has resulted in transcriptome-based approaches to investigate functionally significant biological components in a variety of non-model organism. This has resulted in the area of “venomics”: a rapidly growing field

Venomous Secretions from Marine Snails of the Terebridae Family Target Acetylcholine Receptors

Toxins, 2013
Venoms from cone snails (Conidae) have been extensively studied during the last decades, but those from other members of the suborder Toxoglossa, such as of Terebridae and Turridae superfamilies attracted less interest so far. Here, we report the effects

The complete mitochondrial genome of Conus capitaneus (Neogastropoda: Conidae) [PDF]

Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2016
The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of cone snail Conus capitaneus, a kind of worm-hunting sea snails, was performed by next-generation sequencing. The mitogenome is 15,829 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes (12S and 16S rRNA) and 1 control region. It has an overall base composition of A (25.6%),

Purification and Characterization of the Pink-Floyd Drillipeptide, a Bioactive Venom Peptide from Clavus davidgilmouri (Gastropoda: Conoidea: Drilliidae)

Toxins, 2020
The cone snails (family Conidae) are the best known and most intensively studied venomous marine gastropods. However, of the total biodiversity of venomous marine mollusks (superfamily Conoidea, >20,000 species), cone snails comprise a minor fraction ...

Mitochondrial DNA sequence of Conus textile (Neogastropoda: Conidae)

Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2016
The cone snail Conus textile belongs to the family Conidae. It is a kind of molluscivorous species. The complete mitochondrial DNA sequence was constructed by next-generation sequencing in this study. The mitogenome of C. textile is 15,765 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes and 1 control region.

Integrating Aegean Last Interglacial faunas into the Mediterranean palaeobiogeographic framework: New evidence from Karpathos (Greece)

Journal of Quaternary Science, Volume 41, Issue 1, Page 80-98, January 2026.
ABSTRACT The Last Interglacial (LIG) or Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5e, spanning 129 to 116 kyrs ago, is recognised as one of the warmest periods in the Quaternary, with global sea surface temperatures (SSTs) 1°C–2°C higher than today, sea levels 5–10 m above the current level and biogeographical range expansion of specific tropical species into the ...
