A global review of problematic and pathogenic parasites of farmed tilapia

Reviews in Aquaculture, Volume 15, Issue S1, Page 92-153, February 2023., 2023
Abstract Over the past 80 years, tilapia have been translocated globally for aquaculture; active production is recorded in >124 countries. Of 7 million tonnes of tilapia produced in aquaculture, 79% is from 79 countries outside the natural range of tilapia.

Can artificial ecological islands alter the biodiversity of macroinvertebrate? A case study in Fujin National Wetland Park, the Sanjiang Plain, China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 21, Page 14988-15003, November 2021., 2021
This paper proves that it is feasible to build artificial ecological islands in open water to increase the microhabitat heterogeneity and water‐level gradient as a means of ecological restoration, so as to provide more suitable habitats for aquatic organisms and thus increase the biological diversity of the ecosystem. Macrobenthos are the main food for

Two new species of Helobdella Blanchard 1896 (Hirudinida: Rhynchobdellida: Glossiphoniidae) from Taiwan, with a checklist of hirudinea fauna of the island

Zootaxa, 2009
In this study, two new species of Helobdella leeches, Helobdella octatestisaca n. sp. and Helobdella melananus n. sp., and a newly recorded species, Helobdella europaea, are reported. Morphological characters and DNA barcode analysis were used to identify the three new species.

The activity of hydrolytic enzymes in the digestive system of Acanthobdellida, Branchiobdellida and Hirudinida (Annelida, Clitellata) – considerations on similarity and phylogeny

The European Zoological Journal, 2021
Activities of nineteen hydrolases were measured in the digestive systems of predatory and blood-feeding true leeches (Hirudinida) and their closest relatives, Branchiobdellida and Acanthobdellida.

Phylogenomic analyses reveal a Palaeozoic radiation and support a freshwater origin for clitellate annelids

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 49, Issue 5, Page 614-640, September 2020., 2020
Abstract Clitellata is a major clade of Annelida comprising nearly all freshwater and terrestrial annelids as well as several marine species. We investigated clitellate phylogenetic relationships using transcriptomes sampled from 74 taxa (64 clitellates and 10 polychaetes), including multiple representatives of nearly all major clitellate higher taxa ...
