Journal ArticleDOI
Original molluscan radula: comparisons among Aplacophora, Polyplacophora, Gastropoda, and the Cambrian fossil Wiwaxia corrugata.
TL;DR: The original molluscan radula was similar to the radula found in Helicoradomena species, and it is shown that distichy also occurs during early development in several species of gastropods and polyplacophorans.
Journal ArticleDOI
On quality of evidence in phylogeny reconstruction : a reply to Zrzavy's defence of the 'Ecdysozoa' hypothesis
TL;DR: It is concluded that the Articulata hypothesis is a well-founded alternative to the Ecdysozoa; it is based on much better morphological evidence and supported by plausibility arguments that currently do not exist for the Ecdieszoa.
Journal ArticleDOI
Phylogenomics of Aplacophora (Mollusca, Aculifera) and a solenogaster without a foot.
TL;DR: This work supplemented the paucity of available data with transcriptomes from 25 aculiferans and conducted phylogenomic analyses on datasets with up to 525 genes and 75 914 amino acid positions, indicating that aplacophoran taxonomy requires revision as several traditionally recognized groups are non-monophyletic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structural characterization of the buccal mass of Ariolimax californicus (Gastropoda; Stylommatophora).
Devis Montroni,Xiaolin Zhang,Janet L. Leonard,Murat Kaya,Chris T. Amemiya,Giuseppe Falini,Marco Rolandi +6 more
TL;DR: The acellular components in the buccal mass of the terrestrial slug Ariolimax californicus (banana slug) are characterized and may aid in the design and fabrication of novel bioinspired materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential land snail damage to selected species of the lichen genus Peltigera
Renato Benesperi,Mauro Tretiach +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that land snails definitely prefer thalli lacking lichen secondary compounds, and damage intensity is correlated to the thallus size of the lichens.
