Brooding Phylogenomics: Target-Capture Probe Sets for the Analysis of Ultraconserved Elements in the Peracarida. [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT Sequencing via target capture has been used to great effect in phylogenetic studies of organisms such as insects, arachnids and vertebrates. However, other taxa have received limited genomic attention despite their diversity and the intensity of research on such groups. Here, we describe generalised probe sets targeting ultraconserved elements

Phylogeny of the fascinating and frustrating Peracarida: the past, the present and the future [PDF]
Arthropod Systematics & PhylogenyPeracarida (Arthropoda: Crustacea) is one of Earth’s most strikingly diverse animal groups. Often compared with their relatives, the decapods (crabs, shrimp, and lobsters), a better comparison would be with the hyperdiverse insects: small bodies ...

Genetic Structure of <i>Eudorella emarginata</i> (Peracarida: Cumacea): Effects of Topography and Historical Anoxic Events in the Sea of Japan. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe population dynamics of cumacean species Eudorella emarginata in the seas around Japan were estimated based on molecular sequence data and past climatic changes. Our results suggest that the population in the Sea of Japan survived glacial anoxic events in the refugium near the Tsugaru strait. Our results emphasize the importance of local populations

A new morphological phylogeny of Malacostraca comparing the application of character dependencies and implied weighting. [PDF]
CladisticsAbstract Using a new character matrix composed of revised matrices of previous analyses and new morphological findings, the phylogeny of Malacostraca (Pancrustacea) is analysed anew with 207 characters for 35 terminal taxa across all recognized orders. Particular emphasis was placed on methodological versatility, including different degrees of implied ...

The Benefit of Maternal Care and Infanticide by Males as Reproductive Strategies in a Caprellid Amphipod. [PDF]
Ecol EvolIn the marine amphipod Caprella kominatoensis, males perform infanticide to terminate maternal care and accelerate female molting for mating opportunities. However, we found that maternal defense is effective when the female parent is larger than the intruding male.

The urosome of the Pan- and Peracarida [PDF]
Contributions to Zoology, 2006 We have examined the caudal regions of diverse peracarid and pancarid malacostracans using light and scanning electronic microscopy. The traditional view of malacostracan posterior anatomy is not sustainable, viz., that the free telson, when present, bears the anus near the base.

Diversity and distribution of the Isopoda (Crustacea, Peracarida) of Kuwait, with an updated checklist [PDF]
ZooKeys, 2022 Thirty-eight species of Isopoda, belonging to 13 families and 29 genera, are listed from Kuwait based on previous literature records (of 17 species) and collections carried out along Kuwait’s coastal and subtidal zones during the present study. The majority of species belongs to the suborder Cymothoida (23), followed by Sphaeromatidea (9), Oniscidea (3)

Gaps and Data Ambiguities in DNA Reference Libraries: A Limiting Factor for Molecular-Based Biodiversity Assessments Using Annelids as a Case Study. [PDF]
Ecol EvolRegional DNA reference libraries are crucial for molecular biodiversity assessments, yet they remain incomplete, limiting their effectiveness. Using annelids from the Arabian Peninsula as a case study, we identified considerable gaps in species coverage and minimal representation in public databases.

Tracing growth patterns in cod (Gadus morhua L.) using bioenergetic modelling
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 11, November 2023., 2023 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.
