Detailed Early Life History of the Giant Muricid Snail Chicoreus ramosus in the Southern China Sea

open access: yesAquaculture Research, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Tropical marine life is highly diverse, but the development and utilization of many species remain insufficient. The giant muricid snail Chicoreus ramosus, notable for its large size and high‐quality meat, holds significant potential for aquaculture. Previous descriptions of its seedling production were incomplete and sometimes inaccurate.

Diversity and function of fluorescent molecules in marine animals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 4, Page 1391-1410, August 2024.
ABSTRACT Fluorescence in marine animals has mainly been studied in Cnidaria but is found in many different phyla such as Annelida, Crustacea, Mollusca, and Chordata. While many fluorescent proteins and molecules have been identified, very little information is available about the biological functions of fluorescence.

A Middle Triassic Cassian‐type fauna (Pelsa‐Vazzoler Lagerstätte) and the adaptive radiation of the Modern evolutionary fauna

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 4, July/August 2024.
Abstract We describe a high‐diversity silicified assemblage of marine molluscs (Pelsa‐Vazzoler Lagerstätte) from the upper Ladinian of the Agordo Dolomites (northeastern Italy). New data on the Triassic rebound, after the end‐Permian mass extinction, constrain it to an interval of relatively stable climatic conditions.
