Amphipod crustaceans from Chilean Patagonia
European Journal of Taxonomy, 2022 This paper describes new or little known Amphipoda collected from Hydrozoa, Bryozoa, Porifera or kelp along the Chilean fjord region. The following species have been found and most of them were redescribed and illustrated: Sunamphitoe femorata (Krøyer ...

Ecology Letters, Volume 29, Issue 2, February 2026.Allometry is central to a wide range of ecological research including dynamic food web modelling. Here we updated the often neglected allometric coefficients for metabolism and production, deriving new genus and metabolic group levels estimates with phylogenetic hierarchical modelling providing robust inference.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.This study used environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding with 18S rRNA markers to assess microbial diversity in the Lantebung Mangrove Forest, Makassar, Indonesia. It identified 103 microbial species across five kingdoms, revealing higher species richness in open‐water areas (P1) and greater individual abundance under mangrove canopy (P2).

Additional notes on Clathrozoella drygalskii (Vanhöffen, 1910) (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa)
Scientia Marina, 2000 Study of the material of Clathrozoella drygalskii (Vanhöffen, 1910), a hydroid initially referred to the thecate hydroids but probably better classified in athecate hydroids along with such families as Hydractiniidae and Solanderiidae, has been continued

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding using ITS2 markers reliably recovered 18 coral genera, with strong overlap but also complementary detections compared to benthic transect surveys. eDNA uniquely identified several cryptic genera, while some common genera were only recovered by traditional surveys, highlighting method‐specific biases.

Non‐Invasive Underwater DNA Sampling Illuminates Red Sea Echinoderm Diversity
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Species‐specific non‐invasive underwater DNA sampling remains largely understudied for marine invertebrates despite its potential to revolutionise biodiversity assessment of vulnerable species or fragile ecosystems. Comprehensive species‐specific DNA barcode databases are essential for accurate species identification and taxonomic assignment ...

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 12, December 2025.To assess whether hydroids (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa) are good candidates to test the Deep Reef Refuge Hypothesis and particularly the vertical connectivity component, we analysed the genetic diversity and structure of seven species sampled across euphotic and mesophotic depths around Mayotte and Reunion in the southwestern Indian Ocean.

Cryptic Species: A Mismatch between Genetics and Morphology in Millepora [PDF]
, 2012 Millepore morphology is highly variable and shows signs of phenotypic plasticity. Two species of Millepora are present around the islands of the Bahamas: one exhibiting a strong, blade-like structure, Millepora complanata, and the other having a delicate

Community composition of epibenthic megafauna on the West Greenland Shelf [PDF]
, 2015 Epibenthic organisms are a critical component of the marine environment, functioning as ecosystem engineers, habitat and food for other organisms. Our knowledge of the diversity, complexity and sensitivities of these habitats is limited, particularly at ...

Photosynthetic planulae and planktonic hydroids: contrasting strategies of propagule survival
Scientia Marina, 2000 Settlement delays can be important to prevent propagule waste when proper settling substrates are not immediately available. Under laboratory conditions, the planulae of Clytia viridicans underwent two alternative developmental patterns.
