Tardigrades from England and Madeira are poorly known and up to now only a few species of the genus Macrobiotus have been reported from both regions. In this paper we describe a new species, Macrobiotus anshui sp. nov.

Content assessment of the primary biodiversity data published through GBIF network: Status, challenges and potentials [PDF]
With the establishment of the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) in 2001 as an inter-governmental co-ordinating body, concerted efforts were made during the past decade to establish a global research infrastructure to facilitate the sharing,

Abstract Aim Glaciers cover considerable portion of land and host diverse life forms from single‐celled organisms to invertebrates. However, the determinants of diversity and community composition of these organisms remain underexplored. This study addresses the biogeography, population connectivity and dispersal of these organisms, especially critical

A model study for tardigrade identification [PDF]
Using tardigrades from a single moss sample as a case study, we propose a new method for tardigrade species identification, which is often problematic, due to the low number of morphological characters.

Integrated pathway modules using time-course metabolic profiles and EST data from Milnesium tardigradum [PDF]
Background Tardigrades are multicellular organisms, resistant to extreme environmental changes such as heat, drought, radiation and freezing. They outlast these conditions in an inactive form (tun) to escape damage to cellular structures and cell death ...

Environmental DNA sampling coupled with high‐throughput sequencing is increasingly recognized as a useful method for assessing biodiversity with potential applications in terrestrial environments. Rock pools on granite inselbergs support diverse aquatic communities, yet the application of eDNA to document their biodiversity is lacking.

Species diversity and morphometrics of tardigrades from a medium-size city in the Neotropical Region: Santa Rosa (La Pampa, Argentina) [PDF]
Tardigrade diversity was studied in a medium-sized city in the Neotropical Region: Santa Rosa (La Pampa, Argentina). Samples were collected between February 1999 and January 2000 from lichens and mosses growing on sidewalk trees of the urban and ...

Developmental and genomic insight into the origin of the tardigrade body plan
Three hypotheses for the homology of tardigrade segments to segments of other panarthropods. H, tardigrade head; T1‐T4, tardigrade trunk segment 1–trunk segment 4. Abstract Tardigrada is an ancient lineage of miniaturized animals. As an outgroup of the well‐studied Arthropoda and Onychophora, studies of tardigrades hold the potential to reveal ...

The genus Echiniscus Schultze 1840 (Tardigrada) in Costa Rican (Central America) rain forests with descriptions of two new species [PDF]
In 46 mosses lichens samples collected in Costa Rica 10 Echiniscus Schultze 1840 species were recorded. Two of them were already known from Costa Rica, five are new to this country, further two (E. dariae n. sp. and E. kosickii n. sp.) are new to science,
