The World Amphipoda Database: History and Progress
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We provide an overview of the World Amphipoda Database (WAD), a global speciesdatabase that is part of the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS). Launched in 2013, the databasecontains entries for over 10,500 accepted ... -
Brittle basement deformation during the Caledonian Orogeny observed by K-Ar geochronology of illite-bearing fault gouge in west-central Sweden
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)This study presents K-Ar ages of illite-bearing fault gouges in crystalline basement in central-western Sweden. Samples were taken from two faults that localized brittle deformation marginal to and within mafic dikes that ... -
A New Stenothoid (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Stenothoidae) from a Shallow Water Hydroid Polyp in British Columbia, Canada
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)A new stenothoid species is described from a hydroid polyp in British Columbia, Canada. The new species is provisionally assigned to Metopa as M. insolita sp. nov., pending revision of this genus. -
Seasonal variation in urban pollen resource use by north temperate European honeybees
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Urban green infrastructure can provide important habitats for pollinators and support urban ecosystem services. Therefore, these areas must be managed to maximize biodiversity and density of pollinating insects. We used ... -
How complex is the Naineris setosa species complex? First integrative study of a presumed cosmopolitan and invasive annelid (Sedentaria: Orbiniidae)
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)We performed a comparative study of the specimens from the Naineris setosa complex from the Pacific and the Atlantic Oceans and re-described the syntype of N. setosa, including the selection of the lectotype. Molecular ... -
Diversification of flowering plants in space and time
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)The rapid diversification and high species richness of flowering plants is regarded as ‘Darwin’s second abominable mystery’. Today the global spatiotemporal pattern of plant diversification remains elusive. Using a newly ... -
Incubation behaviour of the Common Ringed Plover Charadrius hiaticula at different latitudes
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)In biparental Charadriinae plovers, male and female incubation duties often resemble daily routines, with males typically incubating at night and females incubating during the day. By analysing incubation behaviour in three ... -

First Molecular Phylogeny of Lumbrineridae (Annelida)
(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 ... -
Marine bio-erosion cavities in metamorphic limestone, weathering rates, and the post glacial land rise in Salten, North Norway.
(Journal article, 2022)Marine mollusk activity initiate erosion cavities in marble and dolomite in the Saltsraumen littoral zone. Such cavities are gradually exposed above sea water by the still on-going eustatic rebound since the last Ice age. ... -
Preventing species extinctions: A global conservation consortium for Erica
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Societal Impact Statement Human-caused habitat destruction and transformation is resulting in a cascade of impacts to biological diversity, of which arguably the most fundamental is species extinctions. The Global ... -
Revision of the Cretaceous shark Protoxynotus (Chondrichthyes, Squaliformes) and early evolution of somniosid sharks
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Due to the peculiar combination of dental features characteristic for different squaliform families, the position of the Late Cretaceous genera Protoxynotus and Paraphorosoides within Squaliformes has long been controversial. ... -
Relationships Between Soil Microbial Diversities Across an Aridity Gradient in Temperate Grasslands: Soil Microbial Diversity Relationships
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Soil microbes assemble in highly complex and diverse microbial communities, and microbial diversity patterns and their drivers have been studied extensively. However, diversity correlations and co-occurrence patterns between ... -
Benthic invertebrates in Svalbard fjords—when metabarcoding does not outperform traditional biodiversity assessment
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)To protect and restore ecosystems and biodiversity is one of the 10 challenges identified by the United Nations’s Decade of the Ocean Science. In this study we used eDNA from sediments collected in two fjords of the Svalbard ... -
