Diversity and Distribution of Sabellida (Annelida) under Protection Regimes [PDF]

open access: yesWater, 2021
Sabellida are widespread, diverse and abundant in marine benthic habitats. Their distribution patterns on hard-bottom substrates are poorly studied so far. Little is known about the factors influencing their distribution, including the protection regimes that are known to affect assemblage diversity.

Environmental Gradient Favours Functionally Diverse Macrobenthic Community in a Placer Rich Tropical Bay

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013
The present paper examines the functional diversity‐environment relation in a placer rich tropical bay. Understanding the environmental variables that determine the biodiversity pattern will help in the effective conservation plans of coastal habitat. However, few studies have been carried out on the biodiversity‐environment relation from the diverse ...

Comparative ultrastructure of the radiolar crown in Sabellida (Annelida) [PDF]

open access: yesZoomorphology, 2020
AbstractThree major clades of tube-dwelling annelids are grouped within Sabellida: Fabriciidae, Serpulidae and Sabellidae. The most characteristic feature of these animals is the often spectacularly colorful and flower-like radiolar crown. Holding up such delicate, feathery appendages in water currents requires some sort of internal stabilization. Each
