Acta Musei Silesiae, Scientiae Naturales, 2023 Abstract In this paper six heterobranch mollusc species are reported for the first time for Bosnia and Herzegovina: Berthellina edwardsi (Vayssiere, 1896), Felimida luteorosea (Rapp, 1827), Thuridilla hopei

Evaluating Probe Design for Phylogenomics Across Taxonomic Scales: First Steps for Applying Ultraconserved Elements in an Understudied Class (Mollusca: Polyplacophora). [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT Ultraconserved elements (UCEs) have become a powerful tool for phylogenomics, but probe sets optimized for one lineage often perform inconsistently when applied in others. Here, we designed and tested new UCE probe sets derived from both genome and transcriptome data of an understudied molluscan class, Polyplacophora (chitons).

Assessment of mitochondrial genomes for heterobranch gastropod phylogenetics
BMC Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Background Heterobranchia is a diverse clade of marine, freshwater, and terrestrial gastropod molluscs. It includes such disparate taxa as nudibranchs, sea hares, bubble snails, pulmonate land snails and slugs, and a number of (mostly small-bodied ...

Natural History Sciences, 2023 The present note documents the finding of two species of marine heterobranch seaslugs along the central-eastern coast of Sicily (Italy, central Mediterranean): the sacoglossan Calliopaea bellula and the nudibranch Tayuva lilacina. These two species show

Mannitol oxidase and polyol dehydrogenases in the digestive gland of gastropods: Correlations with phylogeny and diet. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Mannitol oxidase and polyol dehydrogenases are enzymes that convert polyalcohols into sugars. Mannitol oxidase was previously investigated in terrestrial snails and slugs, being also present in a few aquatic gastropods.
