Molecular systematics of Perinereis and an investigation of the status and relationships of the cultured species Perinereis wilsoni Glasby & Hsieh, 2006 (Annelida, Nereididae) [PDF]
Zoosystematics and EvolutionIn this study, we conducted morphological and molecular analyses of Perinereis wilsoni, a species being considered for aquaculture in China. We found this species difficult to identify because of its close morphological similarity to the sympatric P ...

Gametogenesis of Nypha Palm Worm Namalycastis rhodochorde (Polychaeta: Nereididae)
Jurnal Ilmu Dasar, 2010 The Nypha Palm Worm Namalycastis rhodochorde has been used as bait for fishing in Pontianak. Culturing the worm is one potential effort for its commercialization as well as to overcome the overexploitation of the worm which also brings about the ...

Geographic Variation in Diet and Genetic Connectivity of Populations of the Widespread Predatory Cone Snail <i>Conus miliaris</i>. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe examined patterns of dietary and genetic variation of a broadly distributed, Indo‐West Pacific cone snail at four sites in French Polynesia and compared them to populations at Guam, American Samoa, and Rapa Nui. Our results indicate that populations at French Polynesia possess broad and overlapping diets that are most similar to those of Rapa Nui ...

Unravelling Hidden Trophic Interactions Among Sea Urchin Juveniles and Macroinvertebrates by DNA Amplification. [PDF]
Mol EcolABSTRACT Rocky reefs may shift between two distinct stable states: productive algal forests, characterised by high abundance and biodiversity of macrofauna, and impoverished barrens, dominated by overgrazing sea urchins. Barren states may persist despite the recovery of adult sea urchin predators, suggesting additional stabilising mechanisms.

Gaps and Data Ambiguities in DNA Reference Libraries: A Limiting Factor for Molecular-Based Biodiversity Assessments Using Annelids as a Case Study. [PDF]
Ecol EvolRegional DNA reference libraries are crucial for molecular biodiversity assessments, yet they remain incomplete, limiting their effectiveness. Using annelids from the Arabian Peninsula as a case study, we identified considerable gaps in species coverage and minimal representation in public databases.

Revision of Sinonereis Wu & Sun, 1979 (Annelida: Nereididae) [PDF]
Zoosystema, 2019 The genus SinonereisWu & Sun, 1979 and the species Sinonereis heteropodaWu & Sun, 1979 were described from Chinese waters, based on only epitokous specimens with modified dorsal cirri in chaetigers 5-7 and bare pharynx. In the same publication, another species based on only atokes was described, Nicon sinicaWu & Sun, 1979. We show that N.

Molecular phylogeny of the Lecudinoidea (Apicomplexa): A major group of marine gregarines with diverse shapes, movements and hosts. [PDF]
J Eukaryot MicrobiolAbstract Gregarine apicomplexans are ubiquitous endosymbionts of invertebrate hosts. Despite their ecological and evolutionary importance, inferences about the phylogenetic relationships of major gregarine groups, such as the Lecudinidae and Urosporidae, have been hindered by vague taxonomic definitions and limited molecular and morphological data.
