First Survey of Heterobranch Sea Slugs (Mollusca, Gastropoda) from the Island Sangihe, North Sulawesi, Indonesia

Diversity, 2019
Indonesia is famous for its underwater biodiversity, which attracts many tourists, especially divers. This is also true for Sangihe Islands Regency, an area composed of several islands in the northern part of North Sulawesi.

Project “Biodiversity MARE Tricase”: A Species Inventory of the Coastal Area of Southeastern Salento (Ionian Sea, Italy)

Diversity, 2022
Biodiversity is a broad concept that encompasses the diversity of nature, from the genetic to the habitat scale, and ensures the proper functioning of ecosystems.

Antimicrobial Potential of Bacteria Associated with Marine Sea Slugs from North Sulawesi, Indonesia

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2017
Nudibranchia, marine soft-bodied organisms, developed, due to the absence of a protective shell, different strategies to protect themselves against putative predators and fouling organisms.

The effect of environmental factors on spatial-temporal variation of heterobranch sea slug community in northern Taiwan

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Sea slug (Subclass Heterobranchia) biodiversity is an important element of marine coral reef communities. However, due to their small size and cryptic behavior, few studies have examined their spatiotemporal variation.

DNA barcoding unveiling rare species: the case of Pruvotfolia pselliotes (Labbé, 1923) (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Nudibranchia) in the Mediterranean Sea

The European Zoological Journal, 2020
The Mediterranean Sea is a hot spot for marine biodiversity, and this is particularly evident taking into consideration the diversity observed in many animal groups, among them the Molluscs.

The marine Heterobranchia (Mollusca: Gastropoda) fauna of the Aeolian archipelago (Tyrrhenian Sea). First contribution: Lipari and Vulcano

, 2023
It is here presented the first faunistic list of the marine Heterobranchia fauna of Lipari and Vulcano, the two southernmost islands of the Aeolian archipelago. Through the examination of ten dive sites (six in Lipari and four in Vulcano), it was found a total of 30 marine Heterobranchia species (1 Rhodopoidea, 1 Pleurobranchida, 21 Nudibranchia, 1 ...

Total synthesis and structural characterization of a novel protein scaffold from the snail Biomphalaria glabrata

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Disulfide‐rich miniproteins constitute compact and highly stable scaffolds of growing interest for molecular and structural engineering. Schistosomins are ~80‐residue proteins conserved across gastropods that form a long‐standing orphan family whose structure and biological roles have remained unknown.

Profiling of Heterobranchia Sea Slugs from Portuguese Coastal Waters as Producers of Anti-Cancer and Anti-Inflammatory Agents

Molecules, 2018
Bioprospection of marine invertebrates has been predominantly biased by the biological richness of tropical regions, thus neglecting macro-organisms from temperate ecosystems.

Revealing hidden diversity and cryptic speciation in Antarctic marine gastropods (Heterobranchia: Cephalaspidea)

Antarctic Science
AbstractRecent studies have revealed significant hidden diversity and a high incidence of cryptic speciation in Antarctic marine gastropods. Originally, philinoid cephalaspideans in the Southern Ocean were classified within the genus Philine. However, molecular and morphological studies have shown that three genera encompass all known diversity instead.
