A Pentaradial and Bilateral Combined Photoreception System in the Sea Cucumber is Mediated by a Blue Light-Sensitive R-Opsin. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)The sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota detects blue and adjacent wavelengths of light via an r‐opsin with a maximum absorption at 459 nm. In the oral tentacles, papillae, and tube feet, distinct light‐sensing structures with specialized morphologies are formed, constituting a unique pentaradial and bilateral combined photoreception system.

Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 83-102., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
