Distribuída ao longo de uma costa que compreende mais de 37 de latitude, a fauna
brasileira de poliquetas marinhos reflete a diversidade de habitats característicos das …

A comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the Terebellidae and related families was
undertaken. Type material of all genera of Terebellinae was examined, together with …

Innovative approaches are needed to help understanding how species diversity is related to
the latitudinal gradient at large or small scales. We have applied a novel approach, by …

The morphology of terebelliform polychaetes was investigated for a phylogenetic study
focused on Terebellidae. For this study, specimens belonging to 147 taxa, preferably type …

Coastal ecosystems of northeastern Brazil have important biodiversity with regard to marine
mollusks, which are insufficiently studied. Here we provide an inventory of mollusks from two …

Terebellomorph polychaetes are reported from hydrothermal vents and cold seeps collected
in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. Two new species of Terebellidae, Neoamphitrite …

In a survey of the polychaetes of the Lizard Island region, sixteen new species of terebellids,
plus one previously described species, were found from material collected during the two …

The definitions of terebellid genera have caused considerable confusion. Some genera,
such as Pista Malmgren, 1866, are clearly not monophyletic and the need to revise them is …

Four taxa of terebellines with problematic taxonomic histories are redescribed. One is a new
species that has been misidentified for the last 37 years and one is allocated to a different …

Scientific collections represent a highly relevant social legacy. They provide a source for
research and production of human resources at several academic levels and play a key role …
