Intertidal infaunal community data are obtained via: (1) morphological identification of macroinvertebrates from sediment cores, (2) cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) DNA metabarcoding of the same pooled macroinvertebrate specimens, and (3) 18S ribosomal RNA (18S) DNA metabarcoding of benthic meiofauna from small volume sediment surface scrapes.

Henri de Lacaze‐Duthiers and the ascidian hypothesis
In the 19th century, Henri de Lacaze‐Duthiers, a rigorous and meticulous malacologist became involved in the debate on the origin of vertebrates and their relationships with ascidians. His discovery, meticulous description and experimental analysis of Molgula and its tailless tadpole prevented him from recognizing the relationships between ascidians ...
