Dendrogramma, new genus, with two new non-bilaterian species from the marine bathyal of southeastern Australia (Animalia, Metazoa incertae sedis)--with similarities to some medusoids from the Precambrian Ediacara. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 A new genus, Dendrogramma, with two new species of multicellular, non-bilaterian, mesogleal animals with some bilateral aspects, D. enigmatica and D. discoides, are described from the south-east Australian bathyal (400 and 1000 metres depth).

Scyphomedusae and Ctenophora of the Eastern Adriatic: Historical Overview and New Data [PDF]
Diversity, 2021 One of the obstacles to detecting regional trends in jellyfish populations is the lack of a defined baseline. In the Adriatic Sea, the jellyfish fauna (Scyphozoa and Ctenophora) is poorly studied compared to other taxa. Therefore, our goal was to collect

Extensive mitochondrial gene rearrangements in Ctenophora: insights from benthic Platyctenida
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2018 Background Complete mitochondrial (mt) genomes have been sequenced for thousands of animals and represent a molecule of choice for many evolutionary studies. Nevertheless, some animal groups have remained under-sampled.

Riding the Storm: Microeukaryote Community Responses to Hurricane Disturbance. [PDF]
J Eukaryot MicrobiolABSTRACT Sandy beaches are dynamic ecosystems where terrestrial and marine organisms coexist, resulting in diverse communities where microeukaryotes (protists, microalgae, and meiofauna) are key drivers. Understanding their diversity patterns and responses to stressors is essential for elucidating ecological processes, yet information on this subject ...

Evolution of glial cells: a non-bilaterian perspective [PDF]
Neural DevelopmentNervous systems of bilaterian animals generally consist of two cell types: neurons and glial cells. Despite accumulating data about the many important functions glial cells serve in bilaterian nervous systems, the evolutionary origin of this abundant ...

Speciation of pelagic zooplankton: Invisible boundaries can drive isolation of oceanic ctenophores
Frontiers in Genetics, 2022 The study of evolution and speciation in non-model systems provides us with an opportunity to expand our understanding of biodiversity in nature. Connectivity studies generally focus on species with obvious boundaries to gene flow, but in open-ocean ...
