Riding the Storm: Microeukaryote Community Responses to Hurricane Disturbance

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT 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 ...

Feeding Behavior of Juvenile Notothenia rossii marmorata FISCHER at South Georgia Station

Antarctic Record, 1979
The feeding behavior of juveniles of Notothenia rossii marmorata was investigated by the examination of stomach contents of three fish and by the field observation.

Lim homeobox genes in the Ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi: the evolution of neural cell type specification

EvoDevo, 2012
Background Nervous systems are thought to be important to the evolutionary success and diversification of metazoans, yet little is known about the origin of simple nervous systems at the base of the animal tree.

Strong spatial partitioning of mesozooplankton in a dynamic frontal zone shapes trophic transfer efficiency

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Frontal zones are often areas of increased biological productivity and have hydrographic gradients on short spatial scales. The small scale of gradients poses a challenge in identifying differences in zooplankton community structure and trophic transfer efficiency through the pelagic food web.

Stable isotopes reveal that gelatinous zooplankton diets group by taxonomy and feeding traits in a coastal upwelling system

Limnology and Oceanography, Volume 71, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Gelatinous zooplankton are abundant in marine ecosystems, yet their trophic roles and functional diversity in food webs have only recently gained attention. Gelatinous zooplankton taxa including hydromedusae, ctenophores, siphonophores, chaetognaths, and pelagic tunicates span multiple phyla and are often grouped taxonomically, but trait‐based

Limited connectivity of zooplankton communities across the Labrador Front: role of physical oceanography, insights from individual motility

Oikos, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Near the western margin of the highly productive Labrador Sea, the Labrador Current creates a large and steep oceanographic front between the Arctic‐origin shelf waters and the Atlantic offshore waters (i.e. the Labrador Front), presumably segregating or accumulating plankton communities.

Along the Benthic to Holoplanktonic Continuum: Seafloor Affinity Increases Distance‐Decay Rates Among Abyssal Communities

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 35, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Marine species ranges are often large, contributing to relatively high community similarity over space, with decreased ranges expected among taxa that have lower dispersal and/or higher substrate requirements. We tested for a weakening of biogeographic structuring among dispersing abyssal taxa along the benthic to holoplanktonic habitat ...

Functional Analysis of Ligand‐Gated Chloride Channels in a Cnidarian Sheds Light on the Evolution of Inhibitory Signaling

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 41, 22 July 2026.
We uncover a large variety of putative inhibitory ligand‐gated ion channels (LGICs) in the phylum Cnidaria, the sister group to all bilaterian animals. Phylogenetic analysis suggests a complex evolutionary history of inhibitory LGICs with diverse neurotransmitter ligands.

Ancient origins of arthropod moulting pathway components

eLife, 2019
Ecdysis (moulting) is the defining character of Ecdysoza (arthropods, nematodes and related phyla). Despite superficial similarities, the signalling cascade underlying moulting differs between Panarthropoda and the remaining ecdysozoans.
