Secondary‐tail formation during stolonization in the Japanese green syllid, Megasyllis nipponica

Evolution &Development, Volume 26, Issue 3, May 2024.
Megasyllis nipponica (Annelida, Syllidae) transforms a tail into a reproductive unit (stolon) that detaches from the main body, while a secondary tail is formed before stolon detachment as a future tail of the main body. The secondary‐tail formation is a unique developmental process in contrast to posterior regeneration after amputation.

Intensive temporal and spatial sampling of polychaete biodiversity reveals significant implications for impact assessment and marine park design

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2024.
Abstract Intensive temporal and spatial sampling of benthic infauna have rarely been analysed to improve impact assessment or conservation planning. An impact assessment started in the late 1980s in Jervis Bay (Australia) provided a spatially, temporally and taxonomically comprehensive benthic invertebrate dataset.

Proceraea exoryxae sp. nov. (Annelida, Syllidae, Autolytinae), the first known polychaete miner tunneling into the tunic of an ascidian [PDF]

PeerJ, 2017
While studying organisms living in association with the solitary tunicate Phallusia nigra (Ascidiacea, Ascidiidae) from a shallow fringing reef at Zeytouna Beach (Egyptian Red Sea), one of the collected ascidians showed peculiar perforations on its tunic.

Algal cover as a driver of diversity in communities associated with mussel assemblages across eastern Pacific ecoregions

Marine Ecology, Volume 45, Issue 1, February 2024.
Abstract Research on intertidal mussel assemblages and associated communities has revealed that complexity and structure are influenced by environmental heterogeneity and local‐scale factors affecting recruitment. Research in situ in eastern and western Pacific intertidal ecosystems has suggested drivers of species diversity and community structure ...

Invertebrate diversity associated with a shallow rhodolith bed in the Mediterranean Sea (Mar Piccolo of Taranto, south‐east Italy)

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 34, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract Rhodoliths, formed by free‐living coralline algae, are distributed worldwide, and the rhodolith beds (RBs) that they form are recognized as structurally complex habitats. In the Mediterranean, they are generally distributed in the mesophotic zone, at depths of 30–100 m; so far, only a few shallow RBs (<2 m) have been reported (e.g. Îles Kuriat,

Morphology, Phylogeny, and Evolution of the Rarely Known Genus Admetella McIntosh, 1885 (Annelida, Polynoidae) with Recognition of Four New Species from Western Pacific Seamounts

Journal of Zoological Systematics and Evolutionary Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The polynoid genus Admetella constitutes a deep‐sea assemblage of polychaetes, notable for their large bodies adorned with antennal scales positioned dorsally to the bases of lateral antennae. Furthermore, the genus exhibits swimming proficiencies facilitated by elongated parapodia and flattened chaetae.
