Narrowly defined taxa on a global scale: The phylogeny and taxonomy of the genera Catriona and Tenellia (Nudibranchia, Trinchesiidae) favours fine‐scale taxonomic differentiation and dissolution of the “lumpers & splitters” dilemma

open access: yesEvolutionary Applications, 2023
By applying morphological and molecular data on two genera of the nudibranch molluscs it is shown that the tension between taxonomic practice and evolutionary processes persists. A review of the related genera Catriona and Tenellia is used to demonstrate

On two new <i>Phyllidia</i> species (Gastropoda, Nudibranchia, Doridina) and some histology from the Coral Triangle. [PDF]

open access: yesZookeys
Abstract Two new species of Phyllidia from North Sulawesi, Indonesia, Phyllidiafontjeisp. nov. and Phyllidiaovatasp. nov., are described based on morphology and molecular barcoding of CO1 and/or 16S.

Radular Tooth Coating in Members of Dendronotidae and Flabellinidae (Nudibranchia, Gastropoda, Mollusca)

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 285, Issue 9, September 2024.
Nudibranchs, with their mesmerizing diversity and ecological significance, play crucial roles in marine ecosystems. Central to their feeding prowess is the radula, a chitinous structure with diverse morphologies adapted to prey preferences and feeding ...

Mimicry and mitonuclear discordance in nudibranchs: New insights from exon capture phylogenomics

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Phylogenetic inference and species delimitation can be challenging in taxonomic groups that have recently radiated and where introgression produces conflicting gene trees, especially when species delimitation has traditionally relied on mitochondrial ...

Validating a molecular clock for nudibranchs—No fossils to the rescue

open access: yesEcology and Evolution
Time calibrated phylogenies are typically reconstructed with fossil information but for soft‐bodied marine invertebrates that lack hard parts, a fossil record is lacking.

Neuromuscular development of Aeolidiella stephanieae Valdéz, 2005 (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Nudibranchia) [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Zoology, 2010
Background Studies on the development of the nervous system and the musculature of invertebrates have become more sophisticated and numerous within the last decade and have proven to provide new insights into the evolutionary history of organisms.

The Biodiversity of Peter I Island-The Most Remote Island in the World. [PDF]

open access: yesEcol Evol
Peter I Island is one of the most isolated and least visited islands on earth; lying within the Antarctic Polar Front but over 420 km from continental Antarctica. Here we assess the biodiversity of the island from both previous records and our own BioBlitz in January 2022.
