“…Of the 10 case studies we assessed, the ISAME method concludes that 6 should be categorized as unverified extinctions due to problems with species’ identity and lack of reliable evidence supporting their disappearance (periwinkle—Littoraria flammea [G], houting—Coregonus oxyrinchus [G], long-spined urchin—Diadema antillarum [L], smalltooth sawfish—Pristis pectinata [L], and largetooth sawfish—P. pristis [L]). …”

“…Actin is the major extractable protein component from the tube feet of four different species of sea urchin: Arbacia punctulata, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis, and Diadema setosum. Actin made up as much as 60% of the total Coomassie Blue-staining material after SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and densitometer analysis. …”

“…In this article, we tested the effects of density and social group size separately on female investment and body growth (considered as proxy of the overall energy budget) in the simultaneously hermaphroditic polychaete worm Ophryotrocha diadema. We manipulated social group size (i.e., monogamous and promiscuous regimes) and density (i.e., 4 levels) using a full-factorial design, to identify the underlying factor affecting female allocation (in terms of egg production) and body growth. …”

“…In this study we present a protocol for intact nuclei isolation from diatoms that was successfully applied to three different species: two pennates, Pseudo-nitzschia multistriata and Phaeodactylum tricornutum, and one centric diatom species, Chaetoceros diadema. Intact nuclei were extracted by treatment with acidified NH(4)F solution combined to low intensity sonication pulses and separated from cell debris via FAC-sorting upon incubation with SYBR Green. …”

“…We performed the first in-depth survey of the microbiota associated with four free-living populations of Caribbean sea urchins: Lytechinus variegatus, Echinometra lucunter, Tripneustes ventricosus, and Diadema antillarum. We compared the influence of the collection site, echinoid species and trophic niche to the composition of the microbiota. …”

Species of the new genus are distinct from those of all other aporocotylid genera in having a retort-shaped cirrus-sac with a distinct thickening at a marginal male genital pore. …”

“…Here, we describe variation in GC secretion within eight diademed sifaka (Propithecus diadema) groups across 1 year. These groups span a gradient of anthropogenic habitat disturbance, including groups in continuous forest (‘CONT’) and disturbed fragments (‘FRAG’), and indicators of health suggest that FRAG groups are negatively impacted by habitat disturbance. …”
