DOI: 10.1007/s10531-021-02185-9
Abstract: The cryosphere (i.e. glaciers and permafrost) and its related landforms offer a wide range of ecosystem services, thus they have strong relationships with human population. Even if these harsh environments have often been regarded as… read more here.

A review of rare, poorly known, and morphologically problematic extant marine organic-walled dinoflagellate cyst taxa of the orders Gymnodiniales and Peridiniales from the Northern Hemisphere
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "Marine Micropaleontology"
DOI: 10.1016/j.marmicro.2019.101773
Abstract: Abstract Dinoflagellates are a major component of the modern plankton. Of the 2192 species of marine free-living dinoflagellates presently described, an increasing number are being shown to produce resting cysts (probably hypnozygotes) within their life… read more here.

DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4247.4.3
Abstract: The previous descriptions of Opisthotropis maxwelli Boulenger, 1914 and O. andersonii (Boulenger, 1888) were considered imperfect due to the limited number of specimens. This may in turn cause a problem for accurate species identification. In… read more here.
