Surface morphology and distribution of oropharyngeal taste papillae in sharks and rays (Elasmobranchii, Chondrichthyes): Implications for gustatory sensitivity

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This study investigates the morphology, abundance, and distribution of taste papillae in the oropharyngeal cavity of a range of elasmobranchs using SEM, histology, and topographic analyses. The interspecific importance of gustation is reflected in quantitative differences in the size, density, and distribution of taste papillae, which have implications

Assessment of rhodolith‐forming species diversity in British Columbia uncovers novel cryptic diversity in the genera Boreolithothamnion and Rhodolithia gen. nov. (Florideophyceae, Rhodophyta) and the occurrence of hybrid rhodoliths

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Rhodolith collections in British Columbia have historically been limited, and published regional species diversity data are poor. The acquisition of recent collections, notably from rhodolith beds in Haida Gwaii, provided an opportunity to assess diversity in these waters. The DNA barcode markers COI‐5P, rbcL‐3P, and psbA were used to identify

The influence of sleep disruption on learning and memory in fish

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
Summary Sleep is a ubiquitous process that has been conserved in animals. Yet, our understanding of the functions of sleep largely derives from a few species. Sleep is considered to play an important role in mental processes, including learning and memory consolidation, but how widespread this relationship is across taxa remains unclear.
