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

Mitochondrial genome of Pseudopotamilla reniformis (Annelida: Sabellidae)
Here, we report the complete mitochondrial genome of sabellid Pseudopotamilla reniformis (Bruguière, 1789) (16,408 bp) and comprised of two ribosomal RNAs, the ubiquitous set of 13 protein-coding sequences, and 22 tRNAs. The order of protein-coding genes

The genus Dendronereis Peters, 1854 is characterized in the polychaete family Nereididae by its feather-shaped branchiae on the anterior segments. In this study, we present the first complete mitogenome of Dendronereis, represented by D. chipolini Hsueh,

Association of rhizobia with a marine polychaete [PDF]
SummaryWe report the presence of Mesorhizobium, a genus best known for its nitrogen‐fixing symbiosis with terrestrial legumes, associated with the marine polychaete Meganerilla bactericola (Annelida: Nerillidae). Abundant epibionts were previously described as coating the exterior of M.

The complete mitochondrial genomes of Notomastus sp. (15,776 bp) (Annelida: Capitellidae) and Armandia sp. (18,538 bp) (Annelida: Opheliidae) were assembled for the first time. A group II intron (303 bp) was found in cox1 of Notomastus sp. A phylogenetic

A Polychaete hunchback Ortholog
We report the first characterization of a segmentation gene homologue in the basal polychaete Capitella capitata using a pan-annelid cross-species antibody to the hunchback-like gene product. In flies, the gap segmentation gene hunchback (hb) encodes a C(2)H(2) zinc-finger transcription factor that plays a pivotal role in patterning the anterior region

Global distribution and diversity of marine euendolithic cyanobacteria
Euendolithic, or true‐boring, cyanobacteria actively erode carbonate‐containing substrata in a wide range of environments and pose significant risks to calcareous marine fauna. Their boring activities cause structural damage and increase susceptibility to disease and are projected to only intensify with global climate change. Most research has, however,

Revisiting the Spawning Pattern of Nyale Worms (Eunicidae) Using the Metonic Cycle
Mass spawning dates of nyale worms (Eunicidae) have been scientifically predictable since 2019. The month of spawning is consistently following the pattern of the February full moon, while the date of spawning is consistently on the 20th of the lunar ...

Acaenoplax — polychaete or mollusc?
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.

Progress and perspectives in the discovery of polychaete worms (Annelida) of the world
Despite the availability of well-documented data, a comprehensive review of the discovery progress of polychaete worms (Annelida) has never been done.
