The oldest peracarid crustacean reveals a Late Devonian freshwater colonization by isopod relatives. [PDF]

open access: yesBiol Lett, 2021
Peracarida (e.g. woodlice and side-swimmers) are, together with their sister-group Eucarida (e.g. krill and decapods), the most speciose group of modern crustaceans, suggested to have appeared as early as the Ordovician.

Exceptional endemicity of Aotearoa New Zealand biota shows how taxa dispersal traits, but not phylogeny, correlate with global species richness. [PDF]

open access: yesJ R Soc N Z
ABSTRACT Species’ with more limited dispersal and consequently less gene flow are more likely to form new spatially segregated species and thus contribute disproportionally to endemic biota and global species richness. Aotearoa New Zealand has exceptional endemicity, with 52% of its 54,000 named species endemic, including 32%, 39% and 68% for ...

Global coordination and standardisation in marine biodiversity through the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) and related databases. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS One, 2013
The World Register of Marine Species is an over 90% complete open-access inventory of all marine species names. Here we illustrate the scale of the problems with species names, synonyms, and their classification, and describe how WoRMS publishes online ...

Mitogenomics supports the monophyly of Mysidacea and Peracarida (Malacostraca)

open access: yesZoologica Scripta, Volume 51, Issue 5, Page 603-613, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Here, we provide the first complete mitochondrial genomes for two higher taxa of Peracarida, Lophogastrida and Stygiomysida. We examined Lophogaster typicus as a representative of Lophogastrida and Spelaeomysis bottazzii as a representative of Stygiomysida.

After 100 years: a detailed view of an eumalacostracan crustacean from the Upper Jurassic Solnhofen Lagerstätte with raptorial appendages unique to Euarthropoda

open access: yesLethaia, Volume 54, Issue 1, Page 55-72, January 2021., 2021
The Solnhofen Konservat‐Lagerstätte yields a great number of remarkably preserved fossils of eumalacostracan crustaceans that help us understand the early radiation of several groups with modern representatives. One fossil from there, Francocaris grimmi Broili, 1917 is a small shrimp‐like crustacean originally described about 100 years ago as a ...

Masters of communication: The brain of the banded cleaner shrimp Stenopus hispidus (Olivier, 1811) with an emphasis on sensory processing areas

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 528, Issue 9, Page 1561-1587, June 15, 2020., 2020
Cleaner shrimps feature a broad communicative repertoire which is considered to depend on superb motor skills and the underlying mechanosensory circuits in combination with sensory organs such as the two pairs of antennules and antennae, which are used both for attracting client fish and for intraspecific communication.

The circulatory system of Penaeus vannamei Boone, 1931—Lacunar function and a reconsideration of the “open vs. closed system” debate

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 281, Issue 4-5, Page 500-512, April-May 2020., 2020
The morphology of the hemolymph circulatory system of the decapod Penaeus vannamei is investigated. As well as the complex vascular system, distinct lacunae are investigated three‐dimensionally and interpreted on a functional level. Abstract The morphology of hemolymph circulatory systems has been studied in many arthropod groups over the past decades.

Seasonal and day–night changes in the vertical distribution of Gnathophausia longispina and G. elegans (Peracarida, Lophogastrida) in the East China Sea [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Seasonal and day–night changes in the vertical distribution and habitat of mesopelagic crustaceans, Gnathophausia longispina and G. elegans were investigated in the East China Sea during four oceanographic cruises carried out between May 2012 and January
