ABSTRACT Pinctada radiata, Leach, 1814, is considered the first Indo‐Pacific bivalve introduced in the Mediterranean Sea after the Suez Canal opening and it is now reckoned among the 100 most invasive species within the basin. It is important to assess and describe its established populations in Mediterranean coastal ecosystems to understand the ...

Although tools for actively restoring marine habitats have advanced considerably, the capacity and timeframes for ecosystem recovery remain uncertain. Time and funding constraints, and lacking metrics to quantify the recovery process, represent the primary obstacles to evaluating restoration success.

A micro‐CT approach to the anatomy of Pectinariidae Quatrefages, 1866 (Annelida)
Abstract The Micro‐computed X‐ray tomography (micro‐CT) technique is used to examine the external and internal anatomy of four species of Pectinariidae (Annelida: Terebellida): Amphictene auricoma, Cistenides granulata, Cistenides hyperborea and Lagis sp., from material collected off Iceland and NW Spain.

Pseudobranchiomma (Sabellidae, Annelida) is a small and heterogeneous group of fan worms found in shallow marine environments and is generally associated with hard substrates. The delineation and composition of this genus is problematic since it has been

A dataset of individual wet weights of benthic macroinvertebrates
Abstract Biomass estimates are crucial for modeling and understanding energy flow through ecosystems. Many modeling frameworks rely on published body weights of organisms to convert density estimates to biomass. However, published body weight data are limited to few taxa in a limited number of systems. Here we present mean individual weights for common

Modelling spatial distributions of biogenic habitat‐forming taxa to inform marine spatial planning
Abstract Biogenic habitats are foundational habitats for species assemblages and drive a range of ecosystem functions. The Hauraki Gulf/Tiikapa Moana is the most intensively used coastal area in Aotearoa/New Zealand, and decades of commercial fishing, sedimentation and industrialization have degraded biogenic habitats in the Gulf.

Over the past decades, there has been a gradual decline in global ocean oxygen concentrations due to climate change (ocean warming) and human activities (eutrophication). How this long‐term deoxygenation affects the macrobenthic communities and sediment biogeochemistry remain elusive.

The fan activity rhythm of Sabella spallanzanii (Gmelin, 1791) and its entrainment capability to light were studied. Animals were tested under constant darkness (DD) followed by two consecutive 24 h light-darkness regimes: a first 11 h light ...
