The complete mitochondrial genome of Conus capitaneus (Neogastropoda: Conidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2016 The complete mitochondrial genome sequence of cone snail Conus capitaneus, a kind of worm-hunting sea snails, was performed by next-generation sequencing. The mitogenome is 15,829 bp in length, including 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 ribosomal RNA genes (12S and 16S rRNA) and 1 control region. It has an overall base composition of A (25.6%),

Mitogenomic phylogeny of Nassariidae (Neogastropoda: Buccinoidea) [PDF]
Journal of Molluscan StudiesABSTRACT Mud snails (family Nassariidae) represent a highly diversified lineage within the superfamily Buccinoidea. Recent molecular phylogenies contradicted in some instances the traditional nassariid classification and revealed important levels of homoplasy in phenotypic characters.
