Multigene phylogeny of the scyphozoan jellyfish family Pelagiidae reveals that the common U.S. Atlantic sea nettle comprises two distinct species (Chrysaora quinquecirrha and C. chesapeakei) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 Background Species of the scyphozoan family Pelagiidae (e.g., Pelagia noctiluca, Chrysaora quinquecirrha) are well-known for impacting fisheries, aquaculture, and tourism, especially for the painful sting they can inflict on swimmers. However, historical

Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 2, Page 546-561, April 2024.ABSTRACT Genetic data show that many nominal species are composed of more than one biological species, and thus contain cryptic species in the broad sense (including overlooked species). When ignored, cryptic species generate confusion which, beyond biodiversity or vulnerability underestimation, blurs our understanding of ecological and evolutionary ...

Environmental DNA dynamics of three species of unionid freshwater mussels
Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 2, March–April 2024.We measured eDNA shedding and degradation rates of three freshwater mussel species, including one federally endangered species. We tested how biomass, feeding, and temperature affected shedding rate and found shedding rates were generally low for mussels compared with previous reports of shedding rates in fish. Degradation rates of eDNA were similar to
