The Nereididae (Annelida) – diagnoses, descriptions, and a key to the genera [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2023 Nereididae is among the most familiar of marine annelid families, common and well-studied in most marine environments but paradoxically no recent key or identification guide exists to the world’s genera.

Complete mitochondrial genome of the ragworm annelid Hediste diversicolor (of Müller, 1776) (Annelida: Nereididae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2021 Marine annelids are a globally distributed and species-rich group, performing important ecological roles in macrobenthic communities. Yet, the availability of molecular resources to study these organisms is scarcer, comparatively with other phyla.

The genome sequence of the King Ragworm, Alitta virens (Sars, 1835) [version 1; peer review: 2 approved] [PDF]
Wellcome Open Research, 2023 We present a genome assembly from an individual Alitta virens (the King Ragworm; Annelida; Polychaeta; Phyllodocida; Nereididae). The genome sequence is 671.2 megabases in span. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 14 chromosomal pseudomolecules.

Role of Seagrass as a Food Source for Benthos in Tidal Flats: Toward Conservation and Restoration of Resilient Ecosystems [PDF]
AnimalsSeagrass is a key primary producer in coastal ecosystems; however, most studies on seagrass-benthos interactions have focused on subtidal zones. Some species such as Zostera japonica grow in intertidal flats; however, their ecological functions remain ...

Establishing a new methodology for annelid studies: a biometric study of the ragworm Hediste diversicolor (Müller, 1776) [PDF]
PeerJIn this study, we propose a new biometric methodology for annelids, based on the number of chaetiger segments as an indicator of growth (independent variable), relating to other structures, such as the number of paragnaths and parapodia, using the ...
