A molecular‐based identification resource for the arthropods of Finland
Abstract To associate specimens identified by molecular characters to other biological knowledge, we need reference sequences annotated by Linnaean taxonomy. In this study, we (1) report the creation of a comprehensive reference library of DNA barcodes for the arthropods of an entire country (Finland), (2) publish this library, and (3) deliver a new ...

Aquatic invasion patterns across the North Atlantic
We compiled and compared alien species lists for three different aquatic recipient regions spanning the North Atlantic: Chesapeake Bay, Great Lakes‐St. Lawrence River and North and Baltic Seas. In total, we identified 326 alien species established in these aquatic systems, with most invasions from Ponto‐Caspian, Eurasian, Northwest Pacific, Northwest ...

Community composition of epibenthic megafauna on the West Greenland Shelf [PDF]
Epibenthic organisms are a critical component of the marine environment, functioning as ecosystem engineers, habitat and food for other organisms. Our knowledge of the diversity, complexity and sensitivities of these habitats is limited, particularly at ...

Molecular phylogenetic analyses support the monophyly of Hexapoda and suggest the paraphyly of Entognatha [PDF]
BackgroundMolecular phylogenetic analyses have revealed that Hexapoda and Crustacea form a common clade (the Pancrustacea), which is now widely accepted among zoologists; however, the origin of Hexapoda remains unresolved.

Feeding in Adult Argulus Japonicus Thiele, 1900 (maxillopoda, Branchiura), an Ectoparasite on Fish [PDF]
[The argulids are an economically important group of crustacean ectoparasites known to be problematic in fish farming operations from both temperate and tropical regions. Argulus japonicus was first described from Japanese fish but is now well established in many parts of the world including Europe. To aid the development of effective chemotheraputants

High-throughput sequencing and fatty acid profile analyses of the Black Amur bream (Megalobrama terminalis) reveal variation in dietary niche associated with geographic segregation. [PDF]
This study provides valued viewpoints for understanding the variations in feeding strategy and dietary niche among geographically segregated populations of Megalobrama terminalis. Our results can be used to develop conservation strategies and improve the fisheries management of Black Amur bream or other endemic fish species. Abstract Fish dietary niche
