Seismic Disturbance, Productivity and Depth Shape Hadal Benthic Habitats and Biodiversity in the Japan, Ryukyu and Izu‐Ogasawara Trenches (Northwest Pacific Ocean)

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 11, November 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim This study characterises benthic habitats and associated biodiversity in three Japanese subduction trenches, and explores the effects of trench‐specific differences in large‐scale seismic events, disturbance and productivity regimes on habitat structure and assemblage composition.

Effects of different pond culture conditions on the growth performance, survival rate, and biochemical composition of Acanthopagrus schlegeli and Apostichopus japonicus

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 56, Issue 4, August 2025.
Abstract In the pond culture production process, culture patterns and conditions have important impacts on the feeding, growth, metabolism, behavior, physiology, biochemistry, and immune responses of aquatic animals. These interact with the ecological environment to jointly determine the production outcome of pond culture.

Functional effects of the hadal sea cucumber Elpidia atakama (Echinodermata: Holothuroidea, Elasipodida) reflect small-scale patterns of resource availability [PDF]

, 2011
Holothuroidea represent the dominant benthic megafauna in hadal trenches (similar to 6,000-11,000 m), but little is known about their behaviour and functional role at such depths.

Resolving Uncertainties in the Legality of Wildlife Trade to Support Better Outcomes for Wildlife and People

Conservation Letters, Volume 18, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Wildlife use and trade support the livelihoods of millions of people worldwide but also threaten thousands of species. Legal instruments, when effectively designed and implemented, can help regulate trade and mitigate negative impacts. However, activities along supply chains are rarely categorically legal or illegal, with considerable ...

The Sea Cucumber‐Infecting Parasite Apostichocystis gudetama gen. nov. sp. nov. Expands Marine‐Host‐Specific Clade of Apicomplexans

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 72, Issue 3, May/June 2025.
ABSTRACT Unknown ellipsoid bodies, later classified as apicomplexan cysts, are prevalent in the ovaries of Japanese sea cucumbers (Apostichopus japonicus), where they can lead to lower fecundity in infected individuals and adverse effects on wild populations as well as aquaculture efforts for this endangered species.

Morphology and Molecular Phylogeny of Endosymbiotic Ciliates (Peritrichia, Mobilida) of Marine Invertebrates with Descriptions of Two Novel Species Urceolaria clepsydra n. sp. and Urceolaria bratalia n. sp.

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 72, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
ABSTRACT Mobilid ciliates are a morphologically distinct group of protists that form a wide range of symbiotic relationships with aquatic animals and includes three subgroups: Trichodinidae, Urceolariidae, and Polycyclidae. Trichodinids are best known for infecting fishes, whereas urceolariids infect diverse marine invertebrates.
