    • The Current State of Eunicida (Annelida) Systematics and Biodiversity 

      Zanol, Joana; Carrera-Parra, Luis F.; Steiner, Tatiana Menchini; Amaral, Antonia Cecilia Z.; Wiklund, Helena; Ravara, Ascensão; Budaeva, Nataliya (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      In this study, we analyze the current state of knowledge on extant Eunicida systematics, morphology, feeding, life history, habitat, ecology, distribution patterns, local diversity and exploitation. Eunicida is an order ...

    • Diversity and Distribution of Mites (Acari: Ixodida, Mesostigmata, Trombidiformes, Sarcoptiformes) in the Svalbard Archipelago 

      Seniczak, Anna Beata; Seniczak, Stanislaw; Schwarzfeld, Marla D.; Coulson, Stephen J.; Gwiazdowicz, Dariusz J. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)
      Svalbard is a singular region to study biodiversity. Located at a high latitude and geographically isolated, the archipelago possesses widely varying environmental conditions and unique flora and fauna communities. It is ...

    • The Early Branching Group of Orbiniida Sensu Struck et al., 2015: Parergodrilidae and Orbiniidae 

      Jimenez, Miguel Angel Meca; Zhadan, Anna; Struck, Torsten H (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      This review addresses the state of the art of the systematics and the improvements in the biology, ecology and species diversity of the two annelid taxa Parergodrilidae and Orbiniidae, the early branching group of Orbiniida ...

    • First Molecular Phylogeny of Lumbrineridae (Annelida) 

      Borisova, Polina; Budaeva, Nataliya (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-25)
      Lumbrineridae is a family of marine annelids with simple external morphology but complex and diverse jaw apparatuses consisting of paired maxillae and mandibles. Here we present the first phylogeny of lumbrinerids based ...

    • A Forest Pool as a Habitat Island for Mites in a Limestone Forest in Southern Norway 

      Seniczak, Anna; Seniczak, Stanisław; Graczyk, Radomir; Kaczmarek, Sławomir; Jordal, Bjarte Henry; Kowalski, Jaroslaw; Djursvoll, Per; Roth, Steffen; Bolger, Thomas (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-12)
      Forest water bodies, e.g., pools, constitute ‘environmental islands’ within forests, with specific flora and fauna thus contributing considerably to the landscape biodiversity. The mite communities of Oribatida and ...

    • The Future of DNA Barcoding: Reflections from Early Career Researchers 

      Grant, Danielle M.; Brodnicke, Ole Bjørn; Evankow, Ann; Ferreira, André O.; Fontes, João T.; Hansen, Aslak Kappel; Jensen, Mads Reinholdt; Kalaycı, Tuğba Ergül; Leeper, Alexandra Eve Joyce; Patil, Shalaka Kiran; Prati, Sebastian; Reunamo, Anna; Roberts, Aradhana J; Shigdel, Rajesh; Tyukosova, Valentina; Bendiksby, Mika; Blaalid, Rakel; Costa, Filipe O.; Hollingsworth, Peter M.; Stur, Elisabeth; Ekrem, Torbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)
      Over the last two decades, the use of DNA barcodes has transformed our ability to identify and assess life on our planet. Both strengths and weaknesses of the method have been exemplified through thousands of peer-reviewed ...

    • Mechanisms Generating Dichotomies in the Life Strategies of Heterotrophic Marine Prokaryotes 

      Thingstad, T. Frede; Øvreås, Lise; Vadstein, Olav (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)
      Understanding the mechanisms that generate and maintain diversity in marine prokaryotic communities is one of the main challenges for contemporary marine microbiology. We here review how observational, experimental, and ...
