The complete mitochondrial genome of the polychaete, Marphysa tamurai (Eunicida, Eunicidae)
The study determined the first complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of the polychaete, Marphysa tamurai. A total of 21,346 reads were generated by Illumina HiSeq2500 platform with an average depth of 175.97×. The mitogenome of M. tamurai was 15,163

How false is Nereis falsa (Annelida, Phyllodocida, Nereididae)?
There are many taxonomic problems in polychaete species names and solving confusing or inadequate taxonomic procedures is both time-demanding and extremely important. Our objective in this contribution was to analyse what is the current taxonomic situation for Nereis falsa de Quatrefages, 1866; it was based upon Nereis pulsatoria? Rathke, 1837 from the

Abstract Polychaetes are a promising intertidal resources due to their widespread distribution, considerable biomass, and high nutrition value. The nutritional profiles of two novel tropical polychaetes species (Marphysa sp. and Halla sp.) were determined.

The phylogeny of Nereididae (Annelida) based on mitochondrial genomes
AbstractNereididae comprises a diverse group of marine worms and is one of the most studied families in Annelida. However, phylogenetic relationships within the group are still poorly understood. Previous studies, based on morphological data, have disagreed on the membership of recognized subfamilies and, current taxonomy lacks sufficient phylogenetic ...

The Teichichnus Ichnofacies: Its neoichnological basis and identification in the rock record
Abstract Research on the ichnology of brackish‐water environments began in the 1930s and has led to the identification of predictable infaunal patterns. Brackish‐water deposits characteristically display low‐diversity tracefossil assemblages consisting of both vertical and horizontal structures.

Perinereis aibuhitensis belongs to Annelida, Polychaeta, and mainly lives in intertidal zones along the coast of China and several Southeast Asian countries. The P. aibuhitensis has a similar autolysis phenomenon to sea cucumbers, both of which belong to predeath autolysis.

ABSTRACT Hydrothermal vents are biodiversity hotspots on the deep seafloor powered by chemosynthetic primary production, inhabited by a specially adapted fauna whose composition varies between regions. Sumisu Caldera, located approximately 500 km south of Tokyo, hosts a hot vent with an unusual species composition among the Izu–Ogasawara Arc sites and ...

Sediment dynamics shape macrofauna mobility traits and abundance on tidal flats
Abstract Tidal flats are valuable ecosystems that depend on complex biogeomorphic processes between organisms and sediment transport. Climate change has led to a rise in extreme weather events, such as storms. This, in turn, has increased sediment dynamics and created risks for the benthic communities inhabiting tidal flats.
