Marsupial brood care in Cretaceous tanaidaceans [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2017 Parental care in animal evolution has long fascinated biologists, but tracing this complex of behavioural repertoires is challenging, as these transitory states often leave no corporeal traces as fossils.

Brooding Phylogenomics: Target-Capture Probe Sets for the Analysis of Ultraconserved Elements in the Peracarida. [PDF]
Mol Ecol ResourABSTRACT Sequencing via target capture has been used to great effect in phylogenetic studies of organisms such as insects, arachnids and vertebrates. However, other taxa have received limited genomic attention despite their diversity and the intensity of research on such groups. Here, we describe generalised probe sets targeting ultraconserved elements

A new morphological phylogeny of Malacostraca comparing the application of character dependencies and implied weighting. [PDF]
CladisticsAbstract Using a new character matrix composed of revised matrices of previous analyses and new morphological findings, the phylogeny of Malacostraca (Pancrustacea) is analysed anew with 207 characters for 35 terminal taxa across all recognized orders. Particular emphasis was placed on methodological versatility, including different degrees of implied ...

New species of Tanaidacea from Cretaceous Kachin amber, with a brief review of the fossil record of tanaidacean crustaceans [PDF]
Fossil Record, 2023 Tanaidaceans are benthic, mostly marine, crustaceans that live burrowed in the substrate or in self-built tubes. The fossil record of Tanaidacea reaches back to the Carboniferous, 350 million years ago, but it is especially species-rich in Cretaceous ...

Temperature and Prey Availability Drive Seasonal Variations in Diet, Abundance and Condition of Forsterygion lapillum Across Two Coastal Habitats [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study investigated how temperature, turbidity and prey availability affect the diet, body condition and abundance of F. lapillum in two coastal ecosystems. Results showed seasonal and spatial variation, with body condition, abundance and gut volume positively correlated with warmer temperatures but not with turbidity.
