Neoextinctions of Marine Invertebrates [PDF]

open access: bronzeAmerican Zoologist, 1993
Historical or recent extinctions (here called neoextinctions) are rarely reported among marine and estuarine invertebrates. Four case histories of neoextinctions, using gastropod mollusks (snails) as examples, are reviewed: the periwinkle Littoraria flammea (last collected < 1840 in China), the rocky shore limpet “Colliselld” edmitchelli (1861/3 in ...

Leptoclinides (Ascidiacea, Didemnidae) from Brazil: new records and two new species

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Taxonomy, 2019
Twenty-two samples of Leptoclinides Bjerkan, 1905 collected along the Brazilian coast between 1998 and 2017 were examined. Herein we describe two new species (Leptoclinides coronatus sp. nov. and Leptoclinides lotufoi sp. nov.).

Content-based image retrieval system for marine invertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
There are many marine life around the world where it is essential to have proper documentation for future records. Many information retrieval systems for marine science today require text input from user and can only be accessed online. Therefore, people

DNA barcoding on marine invertebrates

open access: yesJurnal Biologi Udayana, 2021
A large number of species of marine invertebrates that have similar morphology cause misidentification very possible. Molecular species identification is important in taxonomy study accurately.

First report of Laternula elliptica in the Antarctic intertidal zone [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Many Antarctic marine invertebrates are considered to be highly stenothermal, subjected to loss of functionality at increased temperatures and so at high risk of mortality in a rapidly warming environment. The bivalve Laternula elliptica is often used as

Bio-inspired design of ice-retardant devices based on benthic marine invertebrates: the effect of surface texture [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ 2:e588 2014, 2014
Growth of ice on surfaces poses a challenge for both organisms and for devices that come into contact with liquids below the freezing point. Resistance of some organisms to ice formation and growth, either in subtidal environments (e.g. Antarctic anchor ice), or in environments with moisture and cold air (e.g.

Context-Driven Detection of Invertebrate Species in Deep-Sea Video [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computer Vision 2023, 2022
Each year, underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) collect thousands of hours of video of unexplored ocean habitats revealing a plethora of information regarding biodiversity on Earth. However, fully utilizing this information remains a challenge as proper annotations and analysis require trained scientists time, which is both limited and costly ...

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.

Millimeter-scale topography enables coral larval settlement in wave-driven oscillatory flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Larval settlement in wave-dominated, nearshore environments is the most critical life stage for a vast array of marine invertebrates, yet it is poorly understood and virtually impossible to observe in situ. Using a custom-built flume tank that mimics the oscillatory fluid flow over a shallow coral reef, we show that millimeter-scale benthic topography ...

Identification of free amino acids (FAA) that are important as major intracellular osmolytes in the estuarine Hong Kong oyster, Crassostrea hongkongensis

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2023
Crassostrea hongkongensis (Hong Kong oyster), a commercially valuable bivalve thriving in the estuaries along the northern coast of the South China Sea, is threatened by the increase of salinity during the dry season. It is essential to improve its hyper-
