Food and feeding behaviour of eel-cod Muraenolepis sp., (Pisces, Gadiformes, Muraenolepididae) from the region of South Georgia [PDF]
Amphipoda, Cumacea, and Macrura natantia constituted the basic food component of small eel-cod (< 20 cm). Average sized fish (20-30 cm) fed mostly on Macrura natantia and fish; big specimens (> 30 cm) consumed fish, Euphausiacea and Macrura

Food and feeding behaviour of Parachaenichthys georgianus (Fischer, 1885) and Parachaenichthys charcoti (Vaillant, 1906) (Pisces, Bathydraconidae) [PDF]
Studies were made on the content of 278 stomachs of Parachaenichthys georgianus from the region of South Georgia and 30 stomachs of Parachaenichthys charcoti from the region of South Shetlands. Small P. georgianus fed mostly on Mysidacea, medium-sized on

Information about euphausiids in central South Atlantic Ocean is scarce; hence, we investigated species composition and distribution of euphausiids along a longitudinal transect in this region, with an emphasis on Thysanopoda.

Probable Mesozoic vicariance in the biogeography of Euphausiacea
The worldwide distribution of Euphausiacea is related to differences in character states found in the genera belonging to this order. An area cladogram is composed. The vicariant events postulated in this study made it possible to distinguish between different “hydroplates” of the “hydrotectonic (cf. Nelson, 1986) system” on the basis of general trends

Naupliar and Metanaupliar Development of Thysanoessa raschii (Malacostraca, Euphausiacea) from Godthåbsfjord, Greenland, with a Reinstatement of the Ancestral Status of the Free-Living Nauplius in Malacostracan Evolution. [PDF]
The presence of a characteristic crustacean larval type, the nauplius, in many crustacean taxa has often been considered one of the few uniting characters of the Crustacea.

DNA Metabarcoding Reveals Unexpected Predator-Prey-Microbial Dynamics in the Southern Right Whale (Eubalaena australis). [PDF]
ABSTRACT Southern right whale (Eubalaena australis; SRW) populations are recovering from the impacts of commercial whaling, however, recovery has been spatially variable, with strong associations between reproduction and prey availability. The diet of SRWs has not been widely examined, and with SRW foraging shifting away from high‐latitude foraging ...

A new morphological phylogeny of Malacostraca comparing the application of character dependencies and implied weighting. [PDF]
Abstract Using a new character matrix composed of revised matrices of previous analyses and new morphological findings, the phylogeny of Malacostraca (Pancrustacea) is analysed anew with 207 characters for 35 terminal taxa across all recognized orders. Particular emphasis was placed on methodological versatility, including different degrees of implied ...

MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG-ICE): Metabarcoding Marine Zooplankton Diversity of the Global Ocean. [PDF]
ABSTRACT DNA metabarcoding of zooplankton biodiversity is used increasingly for monitoring global ocean ecosystems, requiring comparable data from different research laboratories and ocean regions. The MetaZooGene Intercalibration Experiment (MZG‐ICE) was designed to examine1 and analyse patterns of variation of DNA sequence data resulting from multi ...
