Morphological analysis of Rhynchospio aff. asiatica (Annelida: Spionidae) and comments on the phylogeny and reproduction of the family Spionidae. [PDF]
J Oceanol Limnol, 2022 The genus Rhynchospio has fronto-lateral horns on prostomium, paired branchiae from chaetiger 2 to near the posterior end, capillary notochaetae only, and more than two pairs of pygidial cirri. Rhynchospio species are common in coastal soft bottom communities; nevertheless, many recorded Rhynchospio specimens around the world are currently undescribed.

Considerations for metabarcoding-based port biological baseline surveys aimed at marine nonindigenous species monitoring and risk assessments. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2020 Biodiversity inferences through metabarcoding of port samples allow biodiversity baseline surveys and early detection of nonindigenous species. Yet, successful application requires sampling different habitats, sites, and seasons. Abstract Monitoring introduction and spread of nonindigenous species via maritime transport and performing risk assessments ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of Boccardiella hamata (Annelida: Polychaeta: Spionida). [PDF]
Mitochondrial DNA B Resour, 2021 In this study, the complete mitogenome sequence of Korean Boccardiella hamata was determined. This is the first complete mitogenome in the order Spionida. The complete mitogenome of B. hamata is 17,561 bp in length with 12 protein-coding genes (atp8 gene absent), 23 transfer RNAs, 2 ribosomal RNAs, and 1 control region.

Biodiversity assessment of tropical shelf eukaryotic communities via pelagic eDNA metabarcoding. [PDF]
Ecol Evol, 2019 Water samples from four Caribbean areas were sampled and subjected to universal eukaryote DNA metabarcoding. Tens of thousands of species were recovered, the vast majority being unicellular protists, most of which poorly known taxonomically and ecologically. Multivariate analyses clearly separated samples according to both region and habitat of origin.

DNA metabarcoding unveils multiscale trophic variation in a widespread coastal opportunist. [PDF]
Mol Ecol, 2019 Abstract A thorough understanding of ecological networks relies on comprehensive information on trophic relationships among species. Since unpicking the diet of many organisms is unattainable using traditional morphology‐based approaches, the application of high‐throughput sequencing methods represents a rapid and powerful way forward.

Environmental DNA, Volume 4, Issue 2, Page 363-384, March 2022., 2022 We assessed how the choice of bioinformatics algorithm (UCLUST, VSearch, DADA2, and Deblur) impacts the downstream biological conclusions that are drawn from eukaryotic 18S rRNA metabarcoding studies by using a low‐complexity and high‐complexity dataset. ASV algorithms produce more biologically realistic metabarcoding outputs, with DADA2 being the most

Feeding behavior of Scolelepis sp. (Polychaeta: Spionidae) [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 2004 and may be part of a species complex, because some morphological variations (probably induced by changes in environmental factors such as salinity, temperature, or different sediment types) can be found in individuals from the same locality. Individuals can reach lengths of about 80 mm.
