Citizen scientists contributing to alien species detection: the case of fishes and mollusks in European marine waters

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Citizen science (CS) expands the spatial and temporal scale of alien species records. As such, it has been recognized as a complementary tool in alien species management and large‐scale biodiversity conservation. The present study assessed the contribution of CS to the recording of marine alien fishes and mollusks in European marine waters by ...

Hide ‘n seq: Direct versus indirect metabarcoding of coral reef cryptic communities

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 93-107, January 2022., 2022
Cryptic diversity of coral reef habitat was compared among metabarcoding methods using standardized autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS) and eDNA applying a broad eukaryotic marker (COI). Metabarcoding of biomass from ARMS and eDNA from water samples revealed fundamentally different communities of cryptic coral reef habitat with little overlap ...

Environmental DNA of preservative ethanol performed better than water samples in detecting macroinvertebrate diversity using metabarcoding

open access: yesDiversity and Distributions, Volume 27, Issue 10, Page 1989-2002, October 2021., 2021
Abstract Aim High‐throughput pipelines supported by eDNA metabarcoding have been applied in various freshwater ecosystems. Both eDNA in ethanol (EtOH) samples (ES‐eDNA) and in water samples (WS‐eDNA) can provide comprehensive classification lists with good taxonomic resolution and coverage for determining freshwater biodiversity and biomonitoring. But,

Seasonal turnover in community composition of stream‐associated macroinvertebrates inferred from freshwater environmental DNA metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 3, Issue 4, Page 861-876, July 2021., 2021
Macroinvertebrate communities are crucial for biodiversity monitoring and assessment of ecological status in stream ecosystems. Here, we use environmental DNA metabarcoding of filtered water samples collected in both spring and autumn from five streams in Denmark to address seasonal turnover in community composition of stream macroinvertebrates.

Environmental DNA shedding and decay rates from diverse animal forms and thermal regimes

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 492-514, March 2021., 2021
We conducted mesocosm experiments using a fish, a crustacean, and two scyphomedusae to investigate how environmental DNA (eDNA) shedding differs between animal forms and how long eDNA can persist in waters of different temperature and light conditions. We found that shedding rates were highly variable for all organisms, but grass shrimp had the lowest ...

A bioturbation classification of European marine infaunal invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Bioturbation, the biogenic modification of sediments through particle reworking and burrow ventilation, is a key mediator of many important geochemical processes in marine systems.

Subnicho etario y biología reproductiva de Parachondria neglectus (Littorinimorpha: Annulariidae) en Manzanillo, Cuba

open access: yesRevista de Biología Tropical, 2018
Resumen Parachondria neglectus es un molusco terrestre de la familia Annulariidae, endémico de Cuba y microlocalizado en la provincia de Granma. En la presente investigación se caracterizaron la dinámica temporal del subnicho etario y algunos aspectos de la biología reproductiva de una población de P. neglectus localizada en Manzanillo, GranmaCuba.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Harpago chiragra and Lambis lambis (Gastropoda: Stromboidea): implications on the Littorinimorpha phylogeny. [PDF]

open access: yesSci Rep, 2019
AbstractThe complete mitochondrial genomes ofHarpago chiragraandLambis lambis(Strombidae) were determined with the size of 15,460 bp and 15,481 bp, respectively, and both sequences contained 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs.H. chiragraandL.
