The genus Nyctiphanes (Malacostraca, Euphausiacea) comprises four neritic species that display antitropical geographic distribution in the Pacific (N. simplex and N. australis) and Atlantic (N. couchii and N. capensis) Oceans. We studied the origin of this distribution applying methods for phylogenetic reconstruction and molecular dating of nodes using a Bayesian MCMC analysis and the DNA sequence information contained in mtDNA 16S rDNA and cytochrome oxidase (COI). We tested hypotheses of…

An introduction to the biology of Northern krill (Meganyctiphanes norvegica Sars).
TLDR
The light organs (or photophores) are well developed in Northern krill and the control of luminescence in these organs is described, and a consideration of the distribution of the species shows that it principally occupies shelf and slope waters of both the western and eastern coasts of the North Atlantic.
Molecular phylogeny of South African abalone, its origin and evolution as revealed by two genes
TLDR
All five South African species were revealed as a monophyletic group with a sister relationship to the Australian endemics clade and a split within the South African group was revealed as well as further speciation within one of the two subclades.
Review of the biology of the krill genus Nyctiphanes G.O. Sars, 1883 (Euphausiacea: Euphausiidae): challenges for future research on environmental change
TLDR
This work reviews current knowledge of the biogeography, reproductive biology, physiology, biochemistry, ecology, and parasitology of the four species of Nyctiphanes and suggests new multi-focal studies on the effects that environmental variables have on reproductive aspects, survival, growth, and physiology are especially critical to address under future environmental change.
A review of marine phylogeography in southern Africa
TLDR
This review describes the state of marine phylogeography in southern Africa, that is, the study of evolutionary relationships at the species level, or amongst closely related species, in relation to the region’s marine environment, and focuses particularly on coastal phylegeography.
Biology and Ecology of Antarctic Krill
The first description of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) dates back to 1850. After a period of taxonomic work and the description of several synonyms, detailed studies on the morphology, internal…
A phylogenetic study of krill (Crustacea: Euphausiacea) reveals new taxa and co‐evolution of morphological characters
TLDR
The first comprehensive phylogenetic study of Euphausiacea is presented and reveals three groups of morphological characters, which are probably coupled with the same biological role and thus interlinked evolutionarily: antennular peduncle and petasma, eyes and anterior thoracopods, and shape of carapace and pleon.
Euphausiacea diversity in a trans-oceanic transect through the South Atlantic Ocean: the first Atlantic record of Thysanopoda astylata Brinton, 1975.
TLDR
This report constitutes the first record of Thysanopoda astylata Brinton, 1975 in Atlantic waters, and investigates species composition and distribution of euphausiids along a longitudinal transect in this region, with an emphasis on ThysAnopoda.
Pseudocollinia HISTOPHAGOUS CILIATES INFECT KRILL IN THE PACIFIC AND ATLANTIC OCEANS AND POSSIBLY WORLDWIDE
TLDR
There is strong evidence that apostome Pseudocollinia ciliates are widespread distributed in the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, infecting at least nine krill species from Arctic–to-Antarctic zoogeographic regions, having perhaps worldwide distribution as several of their krill hosts.
No state change in pelagic fish production and biodiversity during the Eocene–Oligocene transition
The Eocene/Oligocene (E/O) boundary (~33.9 million years ago) has been described as a state change in the Earth system marked by the permanent glaciation of Antarctica and a proposed increase in…
Population genetic structure and demographical history of South African abalone, Haliotis midae, in a conservation context
TLDR
This study reported the first microsatellite and Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) markers developed specifically for Haliotis midae, which gave evidence for subtle differentiation between West and East coast populations that correlates with a hydrogeographic barrier in the vicinity of Cape Agulhas.

Origin of the antitropical distribution pattern in marine mussels (Mytilus spp.): routes and timing of transequatorial migration
TLDR
Data indicate that southern hemisphere mussels arose from a migration event from the northern hemisphere during the Pleistocene via an Atlantic route, suggesting a second, more recent migration to the southern hemisphere.
A molecular phylogeny of the patellid limpets (Gastropoda: Patellidae) and its implications for the origins of their antitropical distribution.
TLDR
It is suggested that Patella s.s. may have originated at least as early as the Upper Cretaceous and that its northern distribution may have been achieved at the same time, and some evidence that the patellids may not be monophyletic is presented.

Sardines (Sardinops spp.) occupy temperate upwelling zones in the coastal regions of the Indian and Pacific Oceans, including locations in Japan, California, Chile, Australia, and South Africa. East…
Inter‐ocean dispersal is an important mechanism in the zoogeography of hakes (Pisces: Merluccius spp.)
TLDR
Molecular genetic divergences place the origin of most hake species diversity in the last 2–3 Myr, a period of negligible tectonic activity, and modified peripheral isolate model of speciation in which vicariances, range expansions and contractions, dispersals and founder events lead to isolated populations that subsequently diverge to form new species.
Pliocene closing of the Isthmus of Panama, based on biostratigraphic evidence from nearby Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea cores
Pliocene and Pleistocene planktonic foraminiferal biogeography and paleoceanography have been examined in Deep Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) sites of the Panama Basin (Pacific Ocean) and Colombian and…
Zoogeography and diversity of euphausiids around southern Africa
TLDR
Although the patterns of zoogeography observed for euphausiids are generally similar to those observed for rocky shore communities, there are clear differences between them that reflect their respective habitats and the influence that large-scale water movement has on each.
Signatures of seaway closures and founder dispersal in the phylogeny of a circumglobally distributed seahorse lineage
TLDR
The evolution of the circumglobally distributed seahorse lineage was strongly influenced by founder dispersal, and it is suggested that this mode of speciation may be particularly important in marine organisms that lack a pelagic dispersal phase and instead disperse by means of rafting.
Molecular phylogeny of Eastern Pacific porcelain crabs, genera Petrolisthes and Pachycheles, based on the mtDNA 16S rDNA sequence: phylogeographic and systematic implications.
TLDR
The authors' phylogenetic trees indicate that the genus Petrolisthes is divided into two main clades, reflecting morphological features, and suggests an antitropical distribution; north and south temperate species form one clade and tropical species form a second clade.
