Tardigrada of Ireland: a review of records and an updated checklist of species including a new addition to the Irish fauna

ZooKeys, 2016
The phylum Tardigrada was not recorded in Ireland until the Clare Island Survey of 1909–1911, with only rare subsequent reports on Irish tardigrade species. In recent decades, significant taxonomic revision has occurred within Tardigrada.

Data to the Tardigrada fauna of Albania [PDF]

, 2011
Author describes the Tardigrada species detected from 33 moss and 1 lichen samples from Albania. The 59% of the samples contained tardigrades, of which 30 species were detected. Most of the species are xerophylous and eurytopic.

Time-series transcriptomic screening of factors contributing to the cross-tolerance to UV radiation and anhydrobiosis in tardigrades

BMC Genomics, 2022
Background Tardigrades are microscopic animals that are capable of tolerating extreme environments by entering a desiccated state of suspended animation known as anhydrobiosis.

Expanding the taxonomic catalog of Brazilian meiofauna: diversity and distribution of the neglected phyla Tardigrada, Gastrotricha, and Kinorhyncha [PDF]

Zoologia (Curitiba)
Meiofauna is a guild of microscopic organisms (delimited by the mesh width of two sieves, upper 500 μm and lower 44 μm) that inhabit the sediment grains and periphyton of aquatic environments (both freshwater and marine).

First insights into female sperm storage duration in tardigrades

Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Female sperm storage is ubiquitous in the animal kingdom and it has been shown to be linked to several evolutionary processes, from postcopulatory sexual selection to dispersal.

Complementary but Not Interchangeable: A Comparison of eDNA and Bulk Sample Metabarcoding for the Assessment of Groundwater Invertebrate Communities

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Bulk‐ and eDNA‐metabarcoding were compared across 50 groundwater sites (monitoring wells, springs, hydrants) to assess invertebrate communities. Both recovered different community structures with limited overlap (13.8% OTUs); eDNA was dominated by non‐stygobionts, and bulk samples by stygobionts.

A Pan‐European Whole‐Microbiome Study of Wastewater Influent: Prokaryotes, Protists, Fungi, and Metazoa

Journal of Eukaryotic Microbiology, Volume 73, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Microbial communities entering wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) through untreated sewage represent an important interface between human, environmental, and treatment‐associated microbiomes, yet our understanding of their biogeography remains poorly resolved, particularly for microbial eukaryotes.
