Phylomorphometrics reveal ecomorphological convergence in pea crab carapace shapes (Brachyura, Pinnotheridae). [PDF]
The speciose pea crab family is studied using landmark‐based morphometrics. Mean carapace shapes of species groups, based on their host associations, are compared and visualized. Additionally, with the inclusion of a phylogeny, three morphological convergence events are studied and statistically tested in a phylomorphometric framework.

Perkinsus chesapeaki in stout razor clams Tagelus plebeius from Delaware Bay [PDF]
Perkinsus chesapeaki is reported from stout razor clams Tagelus plebeius in Delaware Bay, extending the known range of P. chesapeaki north of Chesapeake Bay. P. marinus, which causes dermo disease, is prevalent in cultured and wild oysters at this site, but was not detected in T. plebeius.

The temperate marine Peruvian Province: How history accounts for its unusual biota. [PDF]
Among extant temperate marine biotas, the Peruvian Province is highly unusual in, among other traits, a very high incidence of limpets, gastropods with a labral tooth (to assist in predation), a reversed latitudinal diversity gradient, and the absence of several ecological guilds.

Fish as predators and prey: DNA-based assessment of their role in food webs. [PDF]
Abstract Fish are both consumers and prey, and as such part of a dynamic trophic network. Measuring how they are trophically linked, both directly and indirectly, to other species is vital to comprehend the mechanisms driving alterations in fish communities in space and time.

Two epizootic diseases in Chesapeake Bay commercial clams, Mya arenaria and Tagelus plebeius [PDF]
Declining Chesapeake Bay harvests of softshell clams, together with historical and emerging reports of epizootic diseases in Mya arenaria, prompted a survey in summer 2000 of the health status of selected commercial clam populations. All sampled populations (8 M arenaria softshell clam, 2 Tagelus plebeius razor clam) were infected by Perkinsus sp ...
