Identification of pen shells (Bivalvia: Ostreida: Pinnidae) collected off northern Iloilo, Philippines using their morphological characters [PDF]

Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria
This study describes morphological characteristics of pen shells collected along the coast of northern Iloilo, Philippines. A total of 380 pen shell individuals with intact shells and their adductor muscles were carefully examined and measured.

High genetic diversity and lack of structure underlie the invasion history of the non-indigenous oyster Dendostrea cf. crenulifera (Mollusca, Ostreida, Ostreidae) spreading in the eastern Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

NeoBiota
Since the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869, hundreds of Indo-Pacific species have rapidly colonised the Mediterranean. Understanding the spatial and temporal patterns of this biological invasion is crucial for assessing its ecological impact.

Cementing mussels to oysters in the pteriomorphian tree: a phylogenomic approach. [PDF]

Proc Biol Sci, 2016
Mussels (Mytilida) are a group of bivalves with ancient origins and some of the most important commercial shellfish worldwide. Mytilida consists of approximately 400 species found in various littoral and deep-sea environments, and are part of the higher ...

Bivalves from the Changhsingian (upper Permian) Bellerophon Formation of the Dolomites (Italy): ancestors of Lower Triassic post‐extinction benthic communities

Papers in Palaeontology, Volume 9, Issue 2, March/April 2023., 2023
Abstract Diverse shallow marine fossil assemblages from the Changhsingian Bellerophon Formation (Dolomites) record late Palaeozoic marine life immediately before the end‐Permian mass extinction. We classified c. 6500 bivalves from western Dolomites localities, identifying 26 species including one new family (Ladinomyidae), three new genera (Ladinomya ...

Annotated checklist and genetic data for parasitic helminths infecting New Zealand marine invertebrates

Invertebrate Biology, Volume 141, Issue 3, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Parasitic helminths with complex life cycles require multiple hosts in a particular order to complete their life cycles. Although almost all helminths infect invertebrates at some point in their life cycle, we know very little about which species of invertebrates harbor parasites compared with what is known for vertebrates. In New Zealand, <1%

Citizen scientists contributing to alien species detection: the case of fishes and mollusks in European marine waters

Ecosphere, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2022., 2022
Abstract Citizen science (CS) expands the spatial and temporal scale of alien species records. As such, it has been recognized as a complementary tool in alien species management and large‐scale biodiversity conservation. The present study assessed the contribution of CS to the recording of marine alien fishes and mollusks in European marine waters by ...

Hide ‘n seq: Direct versus indirect metabarcoding of coral reef cryptic communities

Environmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 93-107, January 2022., 2022
Cryptic diversity of coral reef habitat was compared among metabarcoding methods using standardized autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS) and eDNA applying a broad eukaryotic marker (COI). Metabarcoding of biomass from ARMS and eDNA from water samples revealed fundamentally different communities of cryptic coral reef habitat with little overlap ...

Victims of ancient hyperthermal events herald the fates of marine clades and traits under global warming

Global Change Biology, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 868-878, February 2021., 2021
Ancient global warming events may hint at what lies in store for us if we do not curb man‐made global warming and modern marine animals are already responding to warming waters. Averaged over six separate global warming events, or hyperthermals, fossil extinctions support that photosymbiotic corals and the reef habitats they provide, brachiopods ...
