Validating a molecular clock for nudibranchs—No fossils to the rescue
Time calibrated phylogenies are typically reconstructed with fossil information but for soft‐bodied marine invertebrates that lack hard parts, a fossil record is lacking.

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

Demographic Models and Behavioral Assessments Uncover Distinct Species Histories in the Pseudocryptic Nudibranch Genus <i>Hermissenda</i>. [PDF]
We reconstructed the speciation history of the recently split pseudocryptic nudibranch genus Hermissenda, finding divergence times in the Pleistocene (1.29–0.55 mya). Demographic modeling and behavioral experiments show no gene flow and assortative mating between sympatric species H. crassicornis (s.s.) and H.

Combination of Sample Preservation Approaches and DNA Extraction Methods for Long-Read Sequencing of Nudibranchs' Genomes. [PDF]
This study aimed to identify the most suitable combination of four tissue preservation approaches and six DNA extraction methods to ensure high‐quality genomic DNA from nudibranchs, suitable for sequencing on the PacBio platform. Our study demonstrates that the success of DNA extractions is influenced by preservation methods, and highlights the ...
