Green Sea Turtle Recruitment in the Eastern North Pacific: Patterns Identified Using Geochemical Signatures in Bones

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
We present vital life‐history and demographic data including the oceanic stage duration, timing of ontogenetic habitat shifts, and multi‐year foraging patterns of eastern North Pacific green sea turtles found in Southern California. The findings were obtained by analyzing sea turtle bones (age and growth via skeletochronology; and habitat and diet via ...

Multiple paedomorphic lineages of soft-substrate burrowing invertebrates: parallels in the origin of Xenocratena and Xenoturbella.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Paedomorphosis is an important evolutionary force. It has previously been suggested that a soft-substrate sediment-dwelling (infaunal) environment facilitates paedomorphic evolution in marine invertebrates. However, until recently this proposal was never

First record of Flabellina dana Millen and Hamann, 2006 (Mollusca: Nudibranchia) in the South Atlantic Ocean [PDF]

Check List, 2011
The nudibranch Flabellina dana Millen and Hamann, 2006 is reported from two localities in the northeastern Brazilian coast. These are the first records of this species, previously recorded from localities in the Bahamas and the Caribbean Sea, in South ...

Deoxymanoalides from the Nudibranch Chromodoris willani

Chemical and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2009
Two sesterterpenes, deoxymanoalide (1) and deoxysecomanoalide (2), were isolated from the nudibranch Chromodoris willani collected in Okinawa and their structures determined on the basis of spectroscopic data and chemical conversions. The mollusk feeds on a sponge containing manoalide (3) and secomanoalide (4) and is likely to biotransform them into 1 ...

Changing bryozoan fauna in Otago Harbour reflects growing urbanisation and globalisation

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 957-978, December 2025.
ABSTRACT A comparison between historic reports dating from 1884 (78 records of 35 species) to the bryozoan fauna present today (98 colonies of 14 species) reveals considerable faunal change in Otago Harbour / Te Wai Ōtākou (45° 50'S 170° 38'E) in Dunedin, east coast of South Island, Aotearoa New Zealand.

Thermal tolerance plasticity under stress: the impact of a marine heatwave and bleaching in the various life stages of Berghia stephanieae

Frontiers in Marine Science
With the increasing intensity and duration of marine heatwaves (MHW), there has been a corresponding rise in bleaching events. These events cause severe ecological impacts, yet most studies have focused on directly impacted or economically important ...

Near‐seabed sediment dynamics and fluxes on Chatham Rise, the effects of seabed disturbance, and implications for deep‐sea bottom trawling and seabed mining

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1460-1495, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Anthropogenic impacts are increasingly affecting deep‐sea environments, including seafloor sediment disturbances by bottom trawling and seafloor mining. Fieldwork in the ‘Resilience Of Benthic Ecosystems to Sedimentation’ (ROBES) project were conducted in 2018–2020 on the 400 m‐deep Chatham Rise crest, eastern Aotearoa New Zealand.

Mussels, Perna canaliculus, as biosensors for climate change: concurrent monitoring of heart rate, oxygen consumption and gaping behaviour under heat stress

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 5, Page 1621-1639, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The green‐lipped mussel, Perna canaliculus, is an important aquaculture species in New Zealand. Recently, the industry has been increasingly challenged by stressors associated with climate change. Predicting its response to climate change requires more than single‐parameter measurements, as mussels show various physiological and behavioural ...
