This study provides the globally largest DNA barcode reference library for Coleoptera for 15 948 individuals belonging to 3514 well‐identified species (53% of the German fauna) with representatives from 97 of 103 families with a focus on Germany.
DNA barcoding largely supports 250 years of classical taxonomy: identifications for Central European bees (Hymenoptera, Apoidea partim)

The barcode data contributed to clarifying the status of nearly half the examined taxonomically problematic species of bees in the German fauna, and the role of DNA barcoding as a tool for current and future taxonomic work is discussed.

The present study provides a comprehensive DNA barcode library for the Geometridae, one of the most diverse of insect families, and emphasizes the effectiveness of DNA barcoding as a tool for monitoring biodiversity.
Larval Planktotrophy—A Primitive Trait in the Bilateria?

- 1 April 1995
It is shown, in particular for the Mollusca, that a biphasic life-cycle with a lecithotrophic larva is probably the plesiomorphic condition, and theories which are based on the assumed plesiomorphy of larval planktotrophy of the Bilateria need careful reevaluation.
The Heterobranchia –a new concept of the phylogeny of the higher Gastropoda
- G. Haszprunar
- Biology
- 27 April 2009
The evolutionary pathway is cladistically analysed from a common prosobranch ancestor up to the basal pulmonates and a new classification according to (but not identical with) the reconstructed cladogram is presented.

The expression of an engrailed protein during embryonic shell formation of the tusk‐shell, Antalis entalis (Mollusca, Scaphopoda)

The single anlage of the scaphopod protoconch contradicts earlier hypotheses of a monophyletic taxon Diasoma (Scaphopoda + Bivalvia), which has been mainly based on the assumption of a primarily bilobed shell in both taxa.
Neurogenesis in the mossy chiton, Mopalia muscosa (gould) (polyplacophora): Evidence against molluscan metamerism
- S. Friedrich, A. Wanninger, M. Brückner, G. Haszprunar
- BiologyJournal of morphology
- 1 August 2002
Outgroup comparison with all other molluscan classes and related phyla suggests that the cord‐like, nonganglionized cerebral system in the Polyplacophora is a reduced condition rather than a primitive mollUScan condition.
