DOI: 10.1002/ajb2.16015
Abstract: PREMISE Chaetopeltidales is a poorly characterized order in the Chlorophyceae, with only two plastid and no mitochondrial genomes published. Here we describe a new taxon in Chaetopeltidales, Gormaniella terricola gen. et sp. nov. and characterize… read more here.

On the Unnecessary and Misleading Taxon “Cetartiodactyla”
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Journal of Mammalian Evolution"
DOI: 10.1007/s10914-021-09572-7
Abstract: The name “Cetartiodactyla” was proposed in 1997 to reflect the molecular data that suggested that Cetacea is closely related to Artiodactyla. Since then, that taxon has spread in popularity, even outside the scientific literature. However,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11557-017-1326-9
Abstract: The genus Halophytophthora is a predominantly marine or estuarine genus of the oomycete family Peronosporaceae. This genus has been revealed as a highly polyphyletic assemblage of largely unrelated species. A new genus of the Peronosporaceae,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s40656-020-00322-1
Abstract: The so-called ‘type method’ widely employed in biological taxonomy is often seen as conforming to the causal-historical theory of reference. In this paper, I argue for an alternative account of reference for biological nomenclature in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.marenvres.2021.105395
Abstract: In this study, marine biofilms were cultured in a flow-lane, semi-continuous photobioreactor at different irradiances and flows to evaluate their combined effect on biofilms' phototrophic composition and photosynthetic activity. Taxon richness, evaluated by different microscopy… read more here.

DOI: 10.1099/mgen.0.000857
Abstract: One of the most abundant and ubiquitous taxa observed in eastern Australian coal seams is an uncultured Desulfuromonas species and part of the Coal Seam Microbiome dataset assigned as ‘CSMB_57’. Despite this abundance and ubiquity,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/1755-0998.13697
Abstract: Accurate identification of plants remains a significant challenge for taxonomists and is the basis for plant diversity conservation. Although DNA barcoding methods are commonly used for plant identification, these are limited by the low amplification… read more here.

Range‐constrained co‐occurrence simulation reveals little niche partitioning among rock‐dwelling Montenegrina land snails (Gastropoda: Clausiliidae)

DOI: 10.1111/jbi.13220
Abstract: Abstract Aim Taxon co‐occurrence analysis is commonly used in ecology, but it has not been applied to range‐wide distribution data of partly allopatric taxa because existing methods cannot differentiate between distribution‐related effects and taxon interactions.… read more here.
