The annelids are an excellent group in which to investigate the evolution of regeneration
abilities. They exhibit qualitative and quantitative variation in regeneration ability, including …

Anthropogenic climate change is considered to be one of the greatest threats facing marine

In 1885 Australia's first recorded marine pest, a mudworm of the Polydora-complex
(Spionidae), was identified on Hunter River, New South Wales, oysters (Saccostrea …

Regeneration, the ability to replace lost body structures, and agametic asexual reproduction,
such as fission and budding, are post‐embryonic developmental capabilities widely …

Annelids (the segmented worms) exist in a remarkably diverse range of mostly marine but
also freshwater and terrestrial habitats, varying greatly in size and form. Annelida provides a …

Understanding how novelty arises has been a major focus of evolutionary developmental
biology. While the origin of new genes, gene functions, and morphological features has …

Spioniform polychaetes are sedentary, tubicolous worms that feed and build tubes using a
pair of prehensile palps, usually grooved, that arise dorsolaterally from the peristomial …

A comparative study of regeneration and asexual reproduction across annelids is presented.
The importance and universality of early stages of the restoration morphogeneses, which …

Within A nnelida, the family S abellidae is a particularly interesting clade in which to carry
out comparative studies of regeneration, as its members vary in regeneration potential, with …

The newly introduced polychaete Linopherus canariensis Langerhans, 1881 was found in
the Lake of Faro (NE Sicily), during a study comparing the macrobenthos in artificial …
