Marine coelenterates such as sea anemonesCarybdea alataproduce venom and inflict them for defense and predation [30]. Sea anemones secrete proteinaceous more diverse toxin molecules with different molecular scaffolds toxins act on a large variety of ion channels and multiple exert pharmacological effe...
The common toadRhinella arenarumis widely distributed in Argentina, where it is utilised as an autochthonous model in ecotoxicological research and environmental toxicology. However, the lack of a reference genome makes molecular assays and gene expression studies difficult to carry out on this non-mode...
Crown-group spadefoot toads (Anura: Pelobatoidea) are the best-known fossorial frog clade to inhabit arid environments, with species utilizing a characteristic bony spade on their foot for burrowing. Endemic to the Northern Hemisphere, they are distributed across the Holarctic except East Asia. ...

By species count, actinopterygians dominate the vertebrates, and they comprise nearly 99% of the over 30,000 species of fish.[2] They are ubiquitous throughout freshwater and marine environments from the deep sea to the highest mountain streams. Extant species can range in size from Paedocypris...
the nomenclature used by BOLD is not always current (such cases are noted inSupplementary Table S2) and some taxa have entries in BOLD under both current and previously recognized names. Such inconsistencies can be recognized and resolved – for example by searching multiple name variants and begin...
