The complete mitochondrial genome of Indothais lacera (Neogastropoda: Muricidae) [PDF]
The rock shells Thais is the most important genera of Muricidae. However, the systemically classification and phylogenetic studies have so far been limited. In this study, we report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of Indothais lacera.

Neogastropod (Mollusca, Gastropoda) phylogeny: A step forward with mitogenomes. [PDF]
Abstract The Neogastropoda (Mollusca, Gastropoda) encompass more than 15,000 described species of marine predators, including several model organisms in toxinology, embryology and physiology. However, their phylogenetic relationships remain mostly unresolved and their classification unstable.

The CODEX Approach: High-Throughput Sequencing of the Cox-1 Barcode Fragment in Neogastropods (Mollusca, Gastropoda). [PDF]
ABSTRACT DNA barcoding traditionally relies on Sanger sequencing but faces limitations with degraded samples. High‐throughput sequencing (HTS) offers a cost‐effective alternative, enabling rapid barcode generation for extensive datasets. The advantage of HTS is its ability to employ multiplexing strategies, allowing thousands of samples to be processed

Evolution of Duplicated Hox Gene Clusters in Land Snails and Slugs. [PDF]
Molluscs of the order Stylommatophora underwent an ancient genome duplication. We show that stylommatophoran snails and slugs have two broken and incomplete Hox gene clusters; HoxA generally has 9 genes, HoxB usually has 7 genes. After duplication of an ancestral 11‐gene Hox cluster, there was patchwork retention of duplicated genes.

Phylogenomics of Neogastropoda: The Backbone Hidden in the Bush. [PDF]
Abstract The molluskan order Neogastropoda encompasses over 15,000 almost exclusively marine species playing important roles in benthic communities and in the economies of coastal countries. Neogastropoda underwent intensive cladogenesis in the early stages of diversification, generating a “bush” at the base of their evolutionary tree ...

The complete mitogenome of Phymorhynchus sp. (Neogastropoda, Conoidea, Raphitomidae) provides insights into the deep-sea adaptive evolution of Conoidea. [PDF]
In this paper, the mitogenome of Phymorhynchus sp. from the Haima methane seep was completely assembled and characterized. We also discussed the phylogenetic relationships and gene arrangements of the superfamily Conoidea. Furthermore, eight residues located in atp6, cox1, cytb, nad1, nad4, and nad5 genes were inferred to be positively selected sites ...

The Mitridae (Gastropoda: Neogastropoda) of the Miocene Paratethys Sea [PDF]
The gastropod family Mitridae in the Miocene Paratethys Sea is revised. In total, 35 species in eight genera are reported. 75% of the species are so far known only from the Paratethys Sea. Biogeographic relations with the adjacent Proto-Mediterranean Sea are moderate and are mainly documented within Cancilla, but nearly absent in the other genera.

By using an integrated morphological and genetic approach, we validated eDNA and zooplankton metabarcoding as a holistic approach to reliably identify marine metazoan fauna in highly dynamic waters of the North Sea. COI metabarcoding outperformed 18S V4 metabarcoding in terms of the number of detected species.

Target‐capture probes for phylogenomics of the Caenogastropoda
Abstract Target‐capture approaches have facilitated a rapid growth in the field of phylogenomics but few probe sets exist for molluscs, an exceptionally rich phylum with unparalleled ecological and morphological diversity. We designed and tested the first universal probe set using Phyluce to capture ultraconserved elements (UCEs) and exon loci from the

Complete mitochondrial genome of Volutharpa perryi (Neogastropoda: Buccinidae) [PDF]
In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Volutharpa perryi has been determined for the first time. The mitogenome is of 15 255 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, two ribosomal RNA genes and 22 transfer RNA genes. The overall base composition is 29.6%, 38.6%, 15.6% and 16.2% for A, T, C and G, respectively.
