Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Aim To describe and compare the diets of an Arctic‐breeding shorebird, the Red Knot (Calidris canutus), across three geographically distinct breeding sites. We aimed to document the dietary patterns and identify key prey groups that characterise each population's foraging ecology.

A checklist of Norwegian Tardigrada
Fauna Norvegica, 2017 Animals of the phylum Tardigrada are microscopical metazoans that seldom exceed 1 mm in length. They are recorded from terrestrial, limnic and marine habitats and they have a distribution from Arctic to Antarctica. Tardigrades are also named ‘water bears’

Five animal phyla in glacier ice reveal unprecedented biodiversity in New Zealand's Southern Alps
Scientific Reports, 2021 Glacier ice is an extreme environment in which most animals cannot survive. Here we report the colonization of high elevation, climate-threatened glaciers along New Zealand’s southwestern coast by species of Arthropoda, Nematoda, Platyhelminthes ...

Information-theoretic signatures of biodiversity in the barcoding gene
, 2018 The COI mitochondrial gene is present in all animal phyla and in a few others, and is the leading candidate for species identification through DNA barcoding.

First record of Mylodon Darwini Owen (xenarthra, tardigrada, mylodontidae) from Arroyo Feliciano formation (late pleistocene), Entre Rios, Argentina [PDF]
, 2015 In this contribution a new record of M. darwini Owen, based on an incomplete skull (MRHU-1) recovered from the Arroyo Feliciano Formation (late Pleistocene) on the Gualeguay River cliffs, nearly the city of Urdinarrain, is presented.

Environmental DNA, Volume 8, Issue 1, January–February 2026.Across 266 water column samples, COI eDNA metabarcoding detected 4298 eukaryotic MOTUs spanning 40 phyla in the Eastern Red Sea. Community composition varied strongly across depth and regions, revealing hidden biodiversity patterns and providing a baseline for conservation‐oriented monitoring in a future‐ocean analogue.

Characterising Soil Eukaryotic Diversity From NEON Metagenomics Datasets
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT Belowground eukaryotic diversity serves a vital role in soil ecosystem functioning, yet the composition, structure, and macroecology of these communities are significantly under‐characterized. The National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) provides publicly available datasets from long‐term surveillance of numerous taxa and ecosystem ...

Establishing a culture of limno-terrestrial tardigrada in laboratory and development of alternative [PDF]
Evidência, 2010 Tardigrades (Phylum Tardigrada) are invertebrate animals also known as water bears, that occurs almost in everylocations on Earth, from the Arctic to Antarctic, from Himalayan top to the bottom of the ocean. One of the reasonsthat the animals can live in

Genome size variation in Tardigrada [PDF]
Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 1996 Abstract The genome size of tardigrades has been documented to date in seven species of eutardigrades, and it is among the lowest in invertebrates. In this paper the evaluation of genome size is extended to eight other species of eutardigrades and to one species of heterotardigrades, in order to obtain a more comprehensive picture of minimum DNA ...
