The language of light: a review of bioluminescence in deep‐sea decapod shrimps
ABSTRACT In the dark, expansive habitat of the deep sea, the production of light through bioluminescence is commonly used among a wide range of taxa. In decapod crustaceans, bioluminescence is only known in shrimps (Dendrobranchiata and Caridea) and may occur in different modes, including luminous secretions that are used to deter predators and/or from

The use of vision modelling to design bycatch reduction devices using light
Abstract Artificial light can be used to deter unwanted non‐target catch (bycatch) from fishing gear, which is thought to be achieved by repelling bycatch, or highlighting escape routes on nets. To select for responses in bycatch species, light should (1) cause the bycatch species to avoid capture, and (2) not invoke the same reaction in target species.

Abstract Spatial fisheries management is widely used to reduce overfishing, rebuild stocks, and protect biodiversity. However, the effectiveness and optimization of spatial measures depend on accurately identifying ecologically meaningful areas, which can be difficult in mixed fisheries.

Coastal wetland restoration through the lens of Odum's theory of ecosystem development
Advancing ecological restoration assessments requires a more detailed consideration of species interactions and ecosystem processes. Most restoration projects rely on a few metrics not always directly linked with ecological theory. Here, we used Odum's theory of ecosystem development to assess and compare the ecosystem structure and services of created

Validating a molecular clock for nudibranchs—No fossils to the rescue
Here, for the first time, we derive divergence rates for nudibranchs using multigene data from a previously undetected geminate pair, with rates exceeding those reported for shelled gastropods. We also erect a new species designation for the Western Atlantic clade, Chromolaichma hemera sp.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Argentine red shrimp, Pleoticus muelleri (Bate, 1888) was determined using the MiSeq platform. Its mitogenome (16,189 bp) encoded the canonical 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, two rRNA genes.

The Pacific white shrimp, Litopenaeus vannamei (Penaeidae), represents about 95% of all Brazilian shrimp production. The Brazilian L. vannamei foundation broodstock was made up of specimens collected from different American Pacific sites, but little ...
