MITOCHONDRIAL GENES AND ISOPOD PHYLOGENY (PERACARIDA: ISOPODA) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Crustacean Biology, 2002
Abstract Molecular data are used to test whether (1) Phreatoicidea are the earliest derived living isopods, and (2) the long-tailed isopod morphology is the derived condition within the Isopoda. Small and large subunits of the mitochondrial ribosomal genes (12S- and 16S rDNA), and cytochrome oxidase c subunit I (COI) are used as a case study for ...

Challenges and Advances in the Taxonomy of Deep-Sea Peracarida: From Traditional to Modern Methods

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
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.

On the Influence of Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem Habitats on Peracarid Crustacean Assemblages in the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation Regulatory Area

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs) are considered hotspots of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning in the deep sea, but are also characterised by a high vulnerability to disturbance and a low recovery potential.

The genus Metamysidopsis W. M. Tattersall, 1951 (Peracarida, Mysida, Mysidae) in the eastern Pacific with the description of a new species from western Mexico and notes on some diagnostic characters used in the genus

open access: yesCrustaceana, 2023
The genus Metamysidopsis W. M. Tattersall is currently represented by two species in the eastern Pacific: M. elongata (Holmes, 1910) in California, U.S.A., and M. pacifica (Zimmer, 1918) in Peru and Panama.

Tanaidacea (Crustacea: Peracardia) of the Gulf of Mexico. IX. Geographical Occurrence of Apseudes olimpiae Gutu, 1986 with a Review of Previous Records for the Genus Apseudes in the Gulf [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Examination of tanaidacean specimens collected from shelf waters of the eastern Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) revealed the presence of the apseudomorph Apseudes olimpiaeGutu, 1986, whose type locality was unknown, but suspected to be Bermuda.

Characterization of Intertidal Macrofaunal Communities of Two Sandy Beaches under Different Anthropogenic Pressures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The macrofauna in the intertidal zone of sandy beaches provides the trophic connectivity between land and sea, by linking microbiome, meiofauna, and megafauna, representing a food source for several terrestrial animals, including shorebirds and mammals ...

The phylogenetic position of the Isopoda in the Peracarida (Crustacea: Malacostraca) [PDF]

open access: yesArthropod Systematics & Phylogeny, 2009
The sister group to the isopod crustaceans remains a controversial proposition. Previous studies have used idealised composite taxa or few exemplars, resulting in confl icting assertions about the placement of the Isopoda among the Malacostraca. A recent morphological study argued for an Amphipoda-Isopoda clade, whereas a molecular study using SSU rDNA
