Traumatic Oral Lesions in Loggerhead Sea Turtles (Caretta caretta) Linked to Polychaete (Laetmonice cf. hystrix) Ingestion: A Case Report from the Northern Adriatic Sea [PDF]
Oral cavity lesions in sea turtles, particularly Caretta caretta, are relatively rare, and are typically linked to infectious agents as well as anthropogenic factors, including ingestion of marine debris or fishing gear.

A review of types of feeds used in polychaete culture [PDF]
Polychaete serves as aquafeed for most aquaculture species and as bioremediation agent of organic waste. Polychaete used for broodstocks of finfish and crustaceans stimulates gonadal maturation and endocrine system in penaeid shrimp, therefore ...

First records of Brada kudenovi Salazar-Vallejo, 2017 (Annelida, Flabelligeridae) from Japan [PDF]
We reassess two specimens, part of the late Dr Minoru Imajima’s collections, from Japan of the flabelligerid genus Brada Stimpson, 1853. We re-identify the specimens as B. kudenovi Salazar-Vallejo, 2017 and newly record this species from Japan,

Acaenoplax — polychaete or mollusc? [PDF]
Palaeozoic invertebrate fossils may pose severe problems in assigning them to Recent taxa. Sutton et al.1 describe the beautifully preserved and illustrated Silurian fossil Acaenoplax hayae as a “plated aplacophoran” mollusc, interpreting its polychaete-like characters as convergent features.

First record of growth patterns in a Cambrian annelid
Early annelid evolution is mostly known from 13 described species from Cambrian Burgess Shale-type Lagerstätten. We introduce a new exceptionally well-preserved polychaete, Ursactis comosa gen. et sp. nov., from the Burgess Shale (Wuliuan Stage).

The Current State of Eunicida (Annelida) Systematics and Biodiversity
In this study, we analyze the current state of knowledge on extant Eunicida systematics, morphology, feeding, life history, habitat, ecology, distribution patterns, local diversity and exploitation. Eunicida is an order of Errantia annelids characterized

Gyrochorte “highways” and their environmental significance in shallow-marine sediments [PDF]
The reworking of a trace by a subsequently following organism represents a so-called sequorichnial behavior and leads to formation of a “burrowing highway”. Burrowing highways occur more frequently than assumed in the fossil record.
