The Oweniidae are marine annelids with many unusual features of organ system, development, morphology, and ultrastructure. Together with magelonids, oweniids have been placed within the Palaeoannelida, a sister group to all remaining anneli...
The importance of being integrative: a remarkable case of synonymy in the genus Viridiscus (Heterotardigrada: Echiniscidae) [0.03%]
整合的重要性：Viridiscus属（异爪猛水蚤目：棘盾猛水蚤科）中同义词的一个显著案例

Adaptation to a hypertonic marine environment is one of the major topics in animal physiology research. Marine teleosts lose water osmotically from the gills and compensate for this loss by drinking surrounding seawater and absorbing water ...
Integrative taxonomy resolves species identities within the Macrobiotus pallarii complex (Eutardigrada: Macrobiotidae) [0.03%]
整合分类学解决了Macrobiotus pallarii复合体（细 tardigrade：Macrobiotidae）内的物种身份问题
