The magnitude of global marine species diversity

Ward Appeltans, +125 more
- 04 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: The first register of the marine species of the world is compiled and it is estimated that between one-third and two-thirds of marine species may be undescribed, and previous estimates of there being well over one million marine species appear highly unlikely.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Interrelationships of Proseriata (Platyhelminthes: Seriata) Tested with Molecules and Morphology

TL;DR: A new morphological matrix consisting of 16 putatively homologous characters and two molecular data sets to investigate further this major group of free-living members of the Platyhelminthes, where the monophyly of the Proseriata cannot be confirmed categorically with any of these data sets.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patterns of diversity in soft-bodied meiofauna: dispersal ability and body size matter

TL;DR: The macroecological analysis of meiofauna indicates that not only body size but mostly dispersal ability and also occurrence in the endobenthic habitat are important correlates of diversity for these understudied animals, with different importance at different spatial scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Dismissal of Acoelomorpha: Acoela and Nemertodermatida are separate early bilaterian clades

TL;DR: New 18S and 28S rRNA sequences analysed with parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian methods of phylogenetic reconstruction show that Nemertodermatida, generally classified as the sister group of Acoela within the recently proposed Phylum Acoelomorpha, are a separate basal bilaterian lineage.
