South American Ordovician phyllocarids (Crustacea, Malacostraca) [PDF]
A detailed morphological analysis of exoskeleton remains of the South American Ordovician phyllocarid crustaceans leads to the recognition of a previously unexpected biodiversity from the Tremadocian up to the Katian. As a result, the genus Caryocaris, as up to now understood, clearly appears to be a comprehensive genus.

Phylogenetic analysis of the Malacostraca (Crustacea)
The Malacostraca comprises about 28 000 species with a broad disparity in morphology, anatomy, embryology, behaviour and ecology. The phylogenetic relationships of the major taxa are still under debate. Is the Leptostraca the sister group of the remaining Malacostraca, or is this taxon more closely related to other Crustacea?

Invasive Species Control: Predation on the Alien Crab Percnon gibbesi (H. Milne Edwards, 1853) (Malacostraca: Percnidae) by the Rock Goby, Gobius paganellus Linnaeus, 1758 (Actinopterygii: Gobiidae) [PDF]
Invasive alien species (IAS) are one of the greatest causes of native species extinction. Indeed, they represent a global threat for biodiversity and can also affect the economy and human health. The colonization success of IAS is presumably not only due

Uropods of Eumalacostraca (Crustacea s.l.: Malacostraca) and their phylogenetic significance [PDF]
The uropods are the specialised sixth pair of pleopods of eumalacostracan Crustacea. Their quite variable morphology is suggestive of a good potential as a phylogenetic signal. Because uropods have hitherto been neglected in analyses of malacostracan phylogeny, we examined them in 11 representative species of Eumalacostraca and the sixth pleopods of a ...

The genome sequence of the tongue-biting isopod, Ceratothoa steindachneri Koelbel, 1878 [version 1; peer review: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations] [PDF]
We present a genome assembly from a specimen of Ceratothoa steindachneri (tongue-biting isopod; Arthropoda; Malacostraca; Isopoda; Cymothoidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 3,927.82 megabases.

Morphological and metabarcoding dietary analysis of the cunner wrasse (Tautogolabrus adspersus) revealed significant regional variation, with large overlap between its common prey species and biofouling animals living on salmonid sea cages. [PDF]
Abstract The stomach‐less cunner wrasse (Tautogolabrus adspersus) has been experimentally used as a biological control agent for salmon lice that infest Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and to remove biofouling inside sea cages. The cunner demonstrates a strong population structure, suggesting that its diet, and therefore its usefulness for biological ...
