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]
NeoBiotaSince 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.

Characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Alectryonella plicatula (Bivalvia: Ostreidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2021 In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of Alectryonella plicatula (Gmelin 1791), the newly determined mitochondrial genome is 18225 bp in length, it is a circular molecule and consists of 12 protein-coding genes (atp8 is absent), 24 transfer RNA (with two copies of trnP and trnQ), and 2 ribosomal RNA genes (splitting

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas, 2020 The gryphaeid oyster Exogyra Say, 1820, is ubiquitous in Upper Cretaceous sediments in the southeastern United States. Like many oysters (Order Ostreida), Exogyra attached its shell to hard surfaces on the seafloor by means of cementation.

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%

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 ...

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 ...

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

The complete mitochondrial genome of Saccostrea Kegaki (Pterioida, Ostreidae) [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA Part B, 2019 Saccostrea are common oysters of Indo-Pacific rocky shores. However, the taxonomy of this genus is confused. In this study, we report the complete sequence of the mitochondrial genome of S. kegaki. The complete S. kegaki mitogenome is 16,260 bp in size. The 16S rRNA gene is split into two parts by a large fragment of genes.
