Taxonomical research on siphonophores is lacking despite their high biodiversity. We collected in Jeju and the southern coasts of Korea conducted morphological redescriptions using multi-focus stacked digital images. As a result, we revealed eight unrecorded (Abyla haeckeli, Ceratocymba leuckartii, Bassia bassensis, Dimophyes arctica, Lensia subtilis, subtiloides, Muggiaea atlantica, Nanomia bi...

Morphological identification of the majority Zygaenidae species in Eastern Mediterranean Region Turkey was undertaken and a phylogenetic tree these generated. Sampling performed between May September 2017 2018 Adana, Hatay, Kahramanmaraş, Mersin Osmaniye Provinces. This area is zoogeographical junction central Anatolia Levant. The were collected by sweep net visual control methods. Thirteen ide...

Erynnis tages and marloyi were known as European species until recent years. Due to their narrow distribution areas, the morphological similarities of two very high, status was controversial. However, records these came from new regions, areas turned out be wide, contrary what is known. With mtCOI gene barcode, there a chance identify genetic variations hidden between inter-species intra-specie...

We describe two new species of springsnails (genus Pyrgulopsis) for populations from the middle Fork and upper East Fork of the Gila River Basin (New Mexico) that had been previously identified as P. gilae. We also restrict P. gilae to its originally circumscribed geographic range which consists of a short reach of the East Fork Gila River and a single spring along the Gila River (below the Eas...

Marstonia comalensis, a poorly known nymphophiline gastropod (originally described from Comal Creek, Texas) that has often been confused with Cincinnatia integra, is re-described and the generic placement of this species, which was recently allocated to Marstonia based on unpublished evidence, is confirmed by anatomical study. Marstonia comalensis is a large congener having an ovate-conic, open...

Copepods belonging to the Oncaeidae family are commonly and abundantly found in marine zooplankton. In the Mediterranean Sea, forty-seven oncaeid species occur, of which eleven in the Gulf of Naples. In this Gulf, several Oncaea species were morphologically analysed and described at the end of the XIX century by W. Giesbrecht. In the same area, oncaeids are being investigated over seasonal and ...
