Pelvic spine reduction affects diet but not gill raker morphology in two polymorphic brook stickleback (Culaea inconstans) populations [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2023., 2023 The extent of parallelism might generally be lower in between‐species versus between‐population comparisons. In two populations of brook sticklebacks, we found that diet differences were associated with pelvic spine reduction, but we found no evidence of any difference in gill raker morphology associated with pelvic spine reduction. This is in contrast

The Core of the Matter—Importance of Identification Method and Biological Replication for Benthic Marine Monitoring [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2024.Benthic macrofauna are important and widely used biological indicators of marine ecosystems as they have limited mobility and therefore integrate the effects of local environmental stressors over time. We here compare environmental DNA metabarcoding obtained from sediments with conventional morphological identification of benthic macrofauna.

Spionidae (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Aegean Sea (eastern Mediterranean) [PDF]
Italian Journal of Zoology, 2011 Abstract The present paper deals with spionid species (Spionidae) collected from various depths (4–183 m) and biotopes at 100 stations along the eastern part of the Aegean Sea in June–September 2000. A total of 35 species and 16 genera were identified, of which two species (Laonice norgensis and Spiophanes algidus) are new to the Mediterranean fauna ...

Scolelepis (Polychaeta: Spionidae) from the Brazilian coast with a diagnosis of the genus [PDF]
Zoologia (Curitiba), 2012 Five species of Scolelepis have been reported for the Brazilian coast. This study raises this number, with two new records: S. acuta Treadwell, 1914, originally from Eastern Pacific, and Scolelepis andradei Delgado-Blas, Díaz & Liñero-Arana, 2009, from ...

Biodiversity and distribution of macroinfauna assemblages on sandy beaches along the Gulf of Cadiz (SW Spain) [PDF]
Scientia Marina, 2015 In the current study, the macroinfauna communities inhabiting 12 sandy beaches along the Spanish coast of the Gulf of Cadiz were describe in order to characterize their unexplored biodiversity, their zonation patterns and their environmental features.
