ABSTRACT Monitoring marine biodiversity requires approaches capable of capturing its spatial and temporal complexity. DNA metabarcoding coupled with Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures (ARMS) is increasingly used for this purpose, yet most applications still pool all sessile fractions and rarely benchmark molecular outputs against photographic ...

DeepZoo: A cost‐effective and modular sampler for ecological studies in the deep ocean
Abstract Understanding the structure and dynamics of deep‐ocean communities requires effective sampling of pelagic organisms in near‐bottom waters. These dispersive organisms contribute to biodiversity, connectivity and ecosystem recovery. Yet, current sampling methods remain constrained by size, cost, and depth, leaving key questions unanswered in ...

Hidden Mortality: Bottom Trawling Challenges the Legal Protection of Vulnerable Marine Species
ABSTRACT Legal protection of species is a central conservation instrument, yet its effectiveness depends on limiting incidental harm. Bottom trawl fisheries are inherently nonselective and frequently capture nontarget species. This creates a legal–management inconsistency: Bottom trawling remains permitted, whereas protected‐species statutes prohibit ...

Abstract Echinodermata is a bilaterian phylum with a body plan that has diverged significantly from the common bilaterian plan. Echinoderms are pentaradially symmetrical and have a unique type of mesodermal skeleton that lies just under the integument.

Abstract Chondrichthyans (sharks, rays and chimaeras) are increasingly understood to be an important part of ocean ecosystems, but their ecological role is unclear. Callorhinchus milii (elephant fish) is a chimaera species endemic to Aotearoa/New Zealand and southern Australian waters.
