Insights into diet and niche separation in the context of prey availability between two sympatric whiprays in a tropical intertidal estuary

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Increasing evidence supports associations between various elasmobranch species and estuarine habitats, particularly during early life stages. However, with substantial knowledge gaps surrounding spatial habitat use and trophic ecology of estuary‐associated species in Australia, we cannot reliably assess the functional importance of these areas

Digenean-gastropod host associations inform on aspects of specific immunity in snails

open access: yesDevelopmental and Comparative Immunology, 2014
Gastropod immunology is informed importantly by the study of the frequent encounters snails endure with digeneans (digenetic trematodes). One of the hallmarks of gastropod-digenean associations is their specificity: any particular digenean parasite ...

Trophic niche overlap between native and non‐native fishes in central Anatolian lakes, Türkiye

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Central Anatolian region of Türkiye exhibits exceptionally high freshwater fish diversity and endemism and is increasingly exposed to the introduction of non‐native taxa. We examined the diet composition, prey selectivity and interspecific dietary overlap among eight native and five non‐native fish species across seven lakes in Central ...

Understanding microRNA Regulation Involved in the Metamorphosis of the Veined Rapa Whelk (Rapana venosa)

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
The veined rapa whelk (Rapana venosa) is widely consumed in China. Nevertheless, it preys on oceanic bivalves, thereby reducing this resource worldwide.

A bristle‐nosed Jurassic ray‐finned fish (Actinopterygii) bears true dermal odontodes on its snout

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
Teeth show extreme diversity, including tooth‐like dermal odontodes or “skin teeth” in many extant fishes. We describe the anatomy of enlarged tubercles on the snout of Redfieldius, an extinct early Jurassic fish. We found that the tubercles in Redfieldius are dermal odontodes that evolved independently from those of living species. Abstract Comparison

Effects of ocean acidification on fatty acid composition in the Antarctic snail Neobuccinum eatoni

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science

Giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) gametophytes grow endophytically in red macroalgae: Implications for kelp restoration

open access: yesJournal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Giant kelp (Macrocystis pyrifera) forests have declined by 95% in Australia since the 1970s due to climate change. Despite expanding restoration efforts, long‐term recovery is still lacking. Factors influencing recruitment by the microscopic gametophyte phase may represent a key mechanism underpinning the successful recovery and restoration of

High-Resolution Integrative Delimitation of Intertidal Limpets via Multi-Locus Barcodes and SEM Morphology

open access: yesDiversity
Limpets are marine gastropod molluscs well adapted to intertidal rocky environments, yet their taxonomic resolution remains challenging due to extensive morphological convergence and the presence of cryptic species.

Struktur Komunitas Moluska dan Kualitas Perairan di Kawasan Hutan dengan Tujuan Khusus Carita, Pandeglang, Banten

open access: yesBiotropika: Journal of Tropical Biology, 2019
Moluska adalah salah satu bioindikator pencemaran lingkungan yang sebagian besar spesiesnya di Indonesia belum banyak diungkap sehingga menarik untuk dipelajari lebih dalam. Moluska dapat ditemukan di perairan laut dan tawar di Pantai Carita, Pandeglang.

Understanding marine biodiversity patterns and drivers: The fall of Icarus

open access: yesMarine Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity patterns are fundamental in our understanding of the distribution of life, ecosystem function, and conservation. In this concept analysis, A survey of the existing knowledge on marine biodiversity patterns and drivers across latitudes, longitudes, and depths indicates that none of the postulated patterns represent a rule.
