“…Halt et al 2009, Smith et al 2012, Willette et al 2015, and several others thereafter). Among these studies, genetic analyses of F. enigmaticus using Cytochrome b (Cytb) revealed high genetic diversity in the group and possible cryptic species (Styan et al 2017, Yee et al 2019, Oliva et al 2020. Similar patterns were found in some of the species of the genus Hydroides using the markers cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) and Cytb (Sun et al 2016(Sun et al , 2017a.…”

“…For the third species, F. enigmaticus Clade 1 (Fig 4, 5), both COI and Cytb sequences are available, and this species has previously been recorded from distant bioregions such as Australia, New Zealand, California and Portugal and northern Spain (e.g. Styan et al 2017, Yee et al 2019, Oliva et al 2020. K2P distances within these species range from 0.3% to 4.7%, and K2P distances between them range from 10.5% to 24.7% (Tables 4, 5).…”

Although there are several nuisance species of serpulids reported worldwide, the present study shows that some of them have been overlooked even in geographic areas that are considered well studied. We report for the first time in Majorca the invasive species Ficopomatus enigmaticus and the first records for the Balearic Islands of the also non-native species Hydroides dianthus, H. dirampha, H. elegans and H. nigra. The most abundant species were F. enigmaticus, found at higher densities in Portixol (with up to 280 ind. m–2), and H. elegans, found at highest densities in the port of Palma (with up to 270 ind. m–2). Species have been identified after morphological examination and corroborated by mitochondrial DNA sequence data: cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (COI) and cytochrome b (Cytb). Molecular data show that the same haplotypes have been found in distant and disjoint biogeographic areas worldwide, which is only explicable by unintentional translocation of specimens through vectors (i.e. ship hulls or ballast water). Species delimitation analyses support previous findings that species complexes are common in both Ficopomatus and Hydroides. In fact, only among the Majorcan samples were we able to detect three species of the F. enigmaticus species complex, two of the H. elegans species complex and two of the H. dianthus species complex. The genetic distances between members of the F. enigmaticus species complex are 8.7% to 16.7% in COI sequences. The species of Hydroides hold 5.4% to 47.6 % genetic divergence between species of the same complex.

“…However, although no statistical differences were obtained among the different extracts, the sensitivity of larvae to hexane (both dry and wet) was greater (lower EC 50/10 values) than that to AcOEt extracts. The toxicity assessments of natural mixtures and emerging contaminants were recently applied to F. enigmaticus (Oliva et al 2018 , 2019 , 2020 ), confirming the sensitivity of this organism as well as the embryotoxicity test as a valuable tool in developmental toxicology. Our results are in line with those of Herath et al ( 2019 ), who, using extracts from two marine sponges ( Monanchora unguiculata and Haliclona sp.…”

The phylum Porifera and their symbionts produce a wide variety of bioactive compounds, playing a central role in their ecology and evolution. In this study, four different extracts (obtained by non-polar and semi-polar extraction methodologies) of the Mediterranean sponge Ircinia oros were tested through a multi-bioassay integrated approach to assess their antifouling potential. Tests were performed using three common species, associated with three different endpoints: the marine bacterium Aliivibrio fischeri (inhibition of bioluminescence), the marine diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum (inhibition of growth), and different development stages of the brackish water serpulid Ficopomatus enigmaticus (gametes: sperm motion, vitality inhibition and cellular damage; larvae: development; adults: AChE (acetylcholinesterase)-inhibitory activity). The effects of extracts were species specific and did not vary among different extraction methodologies. In particular, no significant reduction of bioluminescence of A. fischeri was observed for all tested samples. By contrast, extracts inhibited P. tricornutum growth and had toxic effects on different F. enigmaticus’ developmental stages. Our results suggest that the proposed test battery can be considered a suitable tool as bioactivity screening of marine natural products.

“…After amputation, polychaetes were haphazardly distributed per experimental conditions (0, 0.01, 0.1, 1 and 10 mg GO/L). The GO concentrations were chosen based on earlier research using graphene nanoparticles and marine invertebrates, including polychaetes (De Marchi et al, 2017;De Marchi et al, 2019a;Oliva et al, 2020). Moreover, looking at the literature, the predicted environmental concentrations of this emerging contaminant in aqueous systems were projected to be approximately 0.001-1 mg/L (Hu et al, 2016;Zhang et al, 2017).…”
