Biodiversity of cone snails and other venomous marine gastropods: evolutionary success through neuropharmacology.
- B. Olivera, Patrice Showers Corneli, M. Watkins, A. Fedosov
- Biology, Medicine
- Annual review of animal biosciences
- 18 February 2014
Venomous marine snails (superfamily Conoidea) are a remarkably biodiverse marine invertebrate lineage (featuring more than 10,000 species). Conoideans use complex venoms (up to 100 different… Expand
Venom Insulins of Cone Snails Diversify Rapidly and Track Prey Taxa
- Helena Safavi-Hemami, A. Lu, +6 authors B. Olivera
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular biology and evolution
- 14 August 2016
A specialized insulin was recently found in the venom of a fish-hunting cone snail, Conus geographus. Here we show that many worm-hunting and snail-hunting cones also express venom insulins, and that… Expand
Divergence of the Venom Exogene Repertoire in Two Sister Species of Turriconus

- Biology, Medicine
- Genome biology and evolution
- 23 August 2017
Abstract The genus Conus comprises approximately 700 species of venomous marine cone snails that are highly efficient predators of worms, snails, and fish. In evolutionary terms, cone snails are… Expand
Delimiting species of marine gastropods (Turridae, Conoidea) using RAD sequencing in an integrative taxonomy framework
- J. Abdelkrim, L. Aznar-Cormano, +4 authors N. Puillandre
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular ecology
- 1 November 2018
Species delimitation in poorly known and diverse taxa is usually performed based on monolocus, DNA‐barcoding‐like approaches, while multilocus data are often used to test alternative species… Expand
The collapse of Mitra: molecular systematics and morphology of the Mitridae (Gastropoda: Neogastropoda)

Morphology and development of the valve of Leiblein: Possible evidence for paraphyly of the Neogastropoda
- Y. Kantor, A. Fedosov
- Biology
- 2009
Neogastropoda are generally considered to be monophyletic, although their monophyly is usually challenged in molecular phylogenies. Such results suggest that serious reconsideration of the… Expand

Exon-Capture-Based Phylogeny and Diversification of the Venomous Gastropods (Neogastropoda, Conoidea)
- J. Abdelkrim, L. Aznar-Cormano, +5 authors N. Puillandre
- Biology, Medicine
- Molecular biology and evolution
- 1 October 2018
Transcriptome-based exon capture methods provide an approach to recover several hundred markers from genomic DNA, allowing for robust phylogenetic estimation at deep timescales. We applied this… Expand
Morphology of the anterior digestive system of tonnoideans (Gastropoda: Caenogastropoda) with an emphasis on the foregut glands
- Varvara O. Barkalova, A. Fedosov, Y. Kantor
- Biology
- 17 February 2016
ABSTRACT Tonnoideans are marine carnivorous caenogastropods that prey on different invertebrates, namely polychaetes, sipunculids, bivalve and gastropod molluscs, and echinoderms. The morphology of… Expand
Phylogeny and taxonomy of the Kermia–Pseudodaphnella (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Raphitomidae) genus complex: a remarkable radiation via diversification of larval development
- A. Fedosov, N. Puillandre
- Biology
- 1 December 2012
Conoidean gastropods of the genera Kermia, Oliver, 1915 and Pseudodaphnella Boettger, 1895 (Raphitomidae) are common in shallow-water habitats of the tropical Indo-Pacific. They form a distinct… Expand
