Is DNA metabarcoding an option for formaldehyde‐preserved zooplankton time series?

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The recovery of amplifiable DNA from formaldehyde‐fixed (FF) zooplankton samples has long been considered problematic, but advances in degraded‐DNA retrieval have renewed interest in FF samples. To access the information stored in long‐term zooplankton time series, we evaluated methods for extracting amplifiable DNA from community samples ...

Rediscovery of the nemertean Prostoma graecense from Xochimilco, 75 years after its first and only record

open access: yesRevista Mexicana de Biodiversidad, 2018
The identity of the freshwater nemertean Prostoma graecense (Böhming, 1892) from Lake Xochimilco is solved 75 years after its first recording. Identification of the specimens was accomplished via both morphological and molecular means, the latter ...

Ribbon worm relationships: a phylogeny of the phylum Nemertea [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2003
We present the most extensive phylogenetic analysis to date, to our knowledge, of higher-level nemertean relationships, based on sequence data from four different genes (the nuclear genes for nuclear large subunit rRNA (28S rRNA) and histone H3 (H3), and the mitochondrial genes for mitochondrial large subunit rRNA (16S rRNA) and cytochrome c oxidase ...

Discovery and Fine‐Scale Mapping of Hadal Xenophyophore Habitat in the Nova Canton Trough, Central Pacific Ocean

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Discovery and fine‐scale mapping of a hadal xenophyophore field: submersible video transects and photogrammetry enable semi‐automated delineation of xenophyophores, revealing their abundance, spatial organisation, structural complexity and contribution to habitat heterogeneity at ~8000 m depth.

Mitochondrial genome of Parborlasia corrugatus (Nemertea: Lineidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
We present the complete mitochondrial genome of the herteronemertean Parborlasia corrugatus. Within the 15,499 bp genome, we were able to recover 13 protein-coding genes as well as two rRNA and 22 tRNA.

Between and Within Bay Differences in Mesozooplankton Assemblages in the Central and Eastern Baltic Sea: An Exploratory Study

open access: yesBiological Diversity, Volume 3, Issue 3, Page 149-157, September 2026.
Mesozooplankton assemblages differed significantly both between and within Baltic Sea bays, driven mainly by local salinity and temperature gradients. Distinct communities occurred over distances of less than 1 km, demonstrating strong fine‐scale spatial variability.

Diet and Prey Selection of Migratory Shorebirds on Virginia Mudflats Revealed by Fecal DNA Metabarcoding

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Fecal DNA metabarcoding revealed species‐specific diets of migratory shorebirds on Virginia mudflats, highlighting mudflats as diverse foraging habitats and uncovering a previously undocumented biofilm pathway in mid‐Atlantic shorebird food webs.

A nemertean excitatory peptide/CCHamide regulates ciliary swimming in the larvae of Lineus longissimus

open access: yesFrontiers in Zoology, 2019
Background The trochozoan excitatory peptide (EP) and its ortholog, the arthropod CCHamide, are neuropeptides that are only investigated in very few animal species. Previous studies on different trochozoan species focused on their physiological effect in

Complementary but Not Interchangeable: A Comparison of eDNA and Bulk Sample Metabarcoding for the Assessment of Groundwater Invertebrate Communities

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Bulk‐ and eDNA‐metabarcoding were compared across 50 groundwater sites (monitoring wells, springs, hydrants) to assess invertebrate communities. Both recovered different community structures with limited overlap (13.8% OTUs); eDNA was dominated by non‐stygobionts, and bulk samples by stygobionts.
