Diversity and function of fluorescent molecules in marine animals
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.

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.

Resource level modifies heatwave responses in the freshwater snail Lymnaea stagnalis
Abstract Predicting climate change‐mediated environmental effects on organisms is difficult because their direction and strength may depend on multiple ecological factors that vary in nature. This is because the effects of environmental factors often interact.

Beauty in the beast – Placozoan biodiversity explored through molluscan predator genomics
Previous assumptions about the primary habitat of Placozoa are challenged, and their broader diversity beyond disc‐shaped grazers in coastal waters is revealed. The discovery of placozoan‐predatory sea slugs prompts consideration of a new ecological niche: seafloor sediment interstices.

The fossil record of freshwater Gastropoda – a global review
ABSTRACT Gastropoda are an exceptionally successful group with a rich and diverse fossil record. They have conquered land and freshwater habitats multiple times independently and have dispersed across the entire globe. Since they are important constituents of fossil assemblages, they are often used for palaeoecological reconstruction, biostratigraphic ...
