Mitochondrial Genomes of Three Melampus Species (Ellobiidae; Gastropoda)
Melampus bidentatus was recently divided into three genetically divergent cryptic species: Melampus bidentatus, Melampus jaumei, and Melampus gundlachi. We have assembled and annotated a mitochondrial genome for each of these species.

Abstract To evaluate the aquaculture potential and developmental characteristics of the holobenthic octopus Amphioctopus fangsiao, we conducted artificial breeding and continuous rearing of Amphioctopus fangsiao from hatching to 150 days post‐hatching (dph) under laboratory conditions using broodstock collected from Fujian, China.

ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...

ABSTRACT Understanding the dietary dynamics of marine megafauna is essential for interpreting ecological interactions and assessing environmental changes in marine ecosystems. We analysed temporal trends in the diets of eight megafaunal species, comprising marine mammals, seabirds, and sea turtles.

General-purpose and special-purpose visual systems [PDF]
The information that eyes supply supports a wide variety of functions, from the guidance systems that enable an animal to navigate successfully around the environment, to the detection and identification of predators, prey, and conspecifics.

We show evidence for differential host use among the three sympatric Caenorhabditis, and a novel association with nitidulid beetles for C. apta sp. n. This information adds to our understanding of host invertebrate use across the Caenorhabditis phylogeny, highlighting potential evolutionary transitions in host use in need of further study.

Abstract Seagrasses suffer population decline when environmental stress exceeds physiological tolerance. In such instances, seagrass restoration can be successful if stressors are alleviated; however, many stressors cannot be addressed at a local scale. As such, seagrass restoration efforts often fail. In this study, we tested whether artificial oyster
