Functional and phylogenetic responses of motile cryptofauna to habitat degradation. [PDF]
J Anim Ecol, 2022 Uncovering the hidden biodiversity of coral reefs. Divers mostly see corals and fishes, but these authors have found increased numbers and diversity of tiny animals hidden in dead coral and rubble. Such animals are overlooked, but may help support food webs and functioning as the living coral structure degrades. Abstract Biodiversity of terrestrial and

Unravelling Hidden Trophic Interactions Among Sea Urchin Juveniles and Macroinvertebrates by DNA Amplification. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Rocky reefs may shift between two distinct stable states: productive algal forests, characterised by high abundance and biodiversity of macrofauna, and impoverished barrens, dominated by overgrazing sea urchins. Barren states may persist despite the recovery of adult sea urchin predators, suggesting additional stabilising mechanisms.

Challenging trophic position assessments in complex ecosystems: Calculation method, choice of baseline, trophic enrichment factors, season and feeding guild do matter: A case study from Marquesas Islands coral reefs. [PDF]
Ecol EvolAbstract Assessments of ecosystem functioning are a fundamental ecological challenge and an essential foundation for ecosystem‐based management. Species trophic position (TP) is essential to characterize food web architecture. However, despite the intuitive nature of the concept, empirically estimating TP is a challenging task due to the complexity of ...

A new hermit crab out of its shell from the Eocene Arguis Formation, Huesca, Spain [PDF]
Acta Palaeontologica Polonica, 2020 Semi-articulated paguroids are rare fossils, and there are only few records from Cenozoic strata. Here we present a new and exceptionally preserved hermit crab (Diogenidae) from the Eocene of Huesca (Spain) that preserves the anterior part of the ...
