Luciferase gene of a Caribbean fireworm (Syllidae) from Puerto Rico [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2019
AbstractThe fireworms Odontosyllis spp. are globally distributed and well-known for their characteristic and fascinating mating behavior, with secreted mucus emitting bluish-green light. However, knowledge about the molecules involved in the light emission are still scarce.

An integrative approach to the anatomy of Syllis gracilis Grube, 1840 (Annelida) using micro-computed X-ray tomography [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Background The overall anatomy of the genus Syllis (Annelida: Syllidae) has been largely studied; however, an integrative approach considering different anatomical techniques has never been considered.

A micro‐CT approach to the anatomy of Pectinariidae Quatrefages, 1866 (Annelida)

Acta Zoologica, Volume 106, Issue 4, Page 463-484, October 2025.
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.

Evolution of Haplosyllis (Syllidae, Annelida) With Emphasis on the Indo‐Pacific Region and the djiboutiensis Species Complex

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 54, Issue 5, Page 684-707, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Haplosyllis is a worldwide distributed genus of marine annelids, commonly associated with other invertebrates. Its characteristic simple bidentate chaetae have often led to mistakes in estimating the real diversity of the genus. Currently, Haplosyllis includes 38 species, nearly half of which inhabit the Indo‐West Pacific (IPW).

From two segments and beyond: Investigating the onset of regeneration in Syllis malaquini

Evolution &Development, Volume 26, Issue 6, November 2024.
This study shows that the segmented worm Syllis malaquini needs at least two segments to regenerate head and tail, with gut regions significantly influencing the success or failure of regeneration. Abstract Annelids feature a diverse range of regenerative abilities, but complete whole‐body regeneration is less common, particularly in the context of the

Biodiversity and Phylogeny of North Atlantic Euphrosinidae (Annelida)

Diversity, 2022
Euphrosinidae (Amphinomida) is a clade of generally small, short but stout annelids characterized by long, calcareous chaetae that may be distally forked or ringent.

Field collections and environmental DNA surveys reveal topographic complexity of coral reefs as a predictor of cryptobenthic biodiversity across small spatial scales

Environmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 3, May–June 2024.
Ordination of the 14 sampling sites (numbers) using a non‐metric multidimensional scaling (NMDS) based on the Bray‐Curtis dissimilarities of the 13 microhabitats. This means the 14 sites are placed in respect to their similarity in microhabitats of which the six most abundant across sites are displayed in orange.

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.
