Marine Parasite Biogeography Mirrors Host Patterns Across Latitude, Area, and Diversity

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Parasites are integral components of biodiversity, yet they remain poorly represented in large‐scale biogeographic theory. In this study, we test whether marine parasites follow three macroecological patterns established for free‐living taxa, namely that parasite species richness: (1) scales positively with area (both host body size and geographic area)

Some notes on the anterior dorsal fin and venous drainage in Callorhinchus (Holocephali) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1975
The region of the anterior dorsal fin of the elephant-fish (CalZorhinchus callorhynchus (L.) has been examined by dissection, by injection of radio-opaque material and in serial sections.

Gene expression, evolution, and the genetics of electrosensing in the smalltooth sawfish, Pristis pectinata

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2024.
Sawfishes (Pristidae) are large, highly threatened rays named for their tooth‐studded rostrum, which is used for prey sensing and capture. To better understand the genetic underpinnings of these unique animals, we used RNA‐seq data from multiple tissues to annotate a publicly available genome and compared this data to other elasmobranchs.
