Mitogenomics supports the monophyly of Mysidacea and Peracarida (Malacostraca)
Here, we provide the first complete mitochondrial genomes for two higher taxa of Peracarida, Lophogastrida and Stygiomysida. We examined Lophogaster typicus as a representative of Lophogastrida and Spelaeomysis bottazzii as a representative of ...

Comma shrimp, or cumaceans, are diverse benthic crustaceans, yet they are one of the groups with the poorest fossil record, hindering our understanding of the evolution of the group in deep time.

First multigene phylogeny of Cumacea (crustacea: Peracarida)
Cumaceans are small peracarid crustaceans that can be remarkably diverse and important benthic organisms. Despite their ubiquitous presence in soft sediments, no well‐resolved phylogeny currently exists, which impedes ecological and evolutionary studies ...

Tracing growth patterns in cod (Gadus morhua L.) using bioenergetic modelling
A bioenergetic model, which includes in‐situ knowledge of distribution and food intake, allows tracing (seasonal) growth patterns of cod. The model shows that summer heat periods can lead to negative energy turnover, ultimately resulting in reduced growth and potentially in a reduced reproductive potential.

Taking eDNA underground: Factors affecting eDNA detection of subterranean fauna in groundwater
Abstract Stygofauna are aquatic fauna that have evolved to live underground. The impacts of anthropogenic climate change, extraction and pollution on groundwater pose major threats to groundwater health, prompting the need for efficient and reliable means to detect and monitor stygofaunal communities.

Neurochemical diversity in the central olfactory pathway of Parhyale hawaiensis Abstract In mandibulate arthropods, the primary olfactory centers, termed olfactory lobes in crustaceans, are typically organized in distinct fields of dense synaptic neuropils called olfactory glomeruli.

ABSTRACT Acoustic and substrate‐borne vibrations are among the most widely used signalling modalities in animals. Arthropods display a staggering diversity of vibroacoustic organs generating acoustic sound and/or substrate‐borne vibrations, and are fundamental to our broader understanding of the evolution of animal signalling.

Depth and latitudinal gradients of diversity in seamount benthic communities
Abstract Aim Latitudinal and bathymetric species diversity gradients in the deep sea have been identified, but studies have rarely considered these gradients across hard substratum habitats, such as seamount and oceanic island margins. This study aimed to identify whether the current understanding of latitudinal and bathymetric gradients in α‐diversity

Challenges and Advances in the Taxonomy of Deep-Sea Peracarida: From Traditional to Modern Methods
As one of the oldest branches of biology, taxonomy deals with the identification, classification and naming of living organisms, using a variety of tools to explore traits at the morphological and molecular level.
