Despite broad global distribution of aquatic telemetry studies, important biogeographic regions remain poorly investigated. The most important variables correlated with the distribution of telemetry studies were political stability, conservation funding, number of scientific documents, and English as a first language.

Adult ascidians are capable of regenerating their entire brains following injury, and glycosaminoglycans have been shown to either promote or inhibit neuritogenesis. In this study, dermatan 2,6‐disulfate (D2,6S) was identified as the predominant complex carbohydrate in the ascidian brain.

Phanogracilins A–C, New Bibenzochromenones of Crinoid Phanogenia gracilis (Hartlaub, 1890)
Three new bibenzochromenones named phanogracilins A–C (1–3) were isolated from the crinoid Phanogenia gracilis. The structure of 1 was established using X-ray crystallography as 5,5′,6,6′,8,8′-hexahydroxy-2,2′-dipropyl-4H,4′H-[7,9′-bibenzo[g]chromene]-4 ...

Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

Prickly Defenders: A Review of Venomous Sea Urchins (Echinoidea)
Sea urchins, Echinoidea, are widely known for their defensive spines and pedicellariae, with some species having co-evolved venom in conjunction with those appendages. Despite this, their venomous arsenal remains poorly understood.

Palaeobiogeography of Ordovician echinoderms [PDF]
The palaeobiogeographical distribution of the six major clades of Ordovician echinoderms (asterozoans, blastozoans, cri- noids, echinozoans, edrioasteroids and stylophorans) is analysed based on a comprehensive and up-to-date database compiling 3701 ...
