“…They play an important ecological role in benthic ecosystems through scavenging, filter-feeding, and predation (Brusca & Brusca, 1990;Hickman & Roberts, 1994). They are a crucial food source for organisms such as fish and wading birds (Verdonschot, 2015). Platynereis dumerilii is a wellknown polychaete species with several life phases and can survive in polluted and acidic environments (see online Supporting Information, Fig.…”

“…3D, E) are highly diverse marine worms that are abundant in ocean sediments and also live in freshwater and shallow brackish waters (Verdonschot, 2015; Jørgensen & Jensen, 1978; Niederlehner et al ., 1984). They have soft bodies, a characteristic segmented shape, and occupy a wide range of habitats, including those in extreme conditions (Glasby, 1999; Verdonschot, 2015; Magalhães et al ., 2021). They play an important ecological role in benthic ecosystems through scavenging, filter‐feeding, and predation (Brusca & Brusca, 1990; Hickman & Roberts, 1994).…”

Aquatic invertebrates play a pivotal role in (eco)toxicological assessments because they offer ethical, cost‐effective and repeatable testing options. Additionally, their significance in the food chain and their ability to represent diverse aquatic ecosystems make them valuable subjects for (eco)toxicological studies. To ensure consistency and comparability across studies, international (eco)toxicology guidelines have been used to establish standardised methods and protocols for data collection, analysis and interpretation. However, the current standardised protocols primarily focus on a limited number of aquatic invertebrate species, mainly from Arthropoda, Mollusca and Annelida. These protocols are suitable for basic toxicity screening, effectively assessing the immediate and severe effects of toxic substances on organisms. For more comprehensive and ecologically relevant assessments, particularly those addressing long‐term effects and ecosystem‐wide impacts, we recommended the use of a broader diversity of species, since the present choice of taxa exacerbates the limited scope of basic ecotoxicological studies.This review provides a comprehensive overview of (eco)toxicological studies, focusing on major aquatic invertebrate taxa and how they are used to assess the impact of chemicals in diverse aquatic environments. The present work supports the use of a broad‐taxa approach in basic environmental assessments, as it better represents the natural populations inhabiting various ecosystems. Advances in omics and other biochemical and computational techniques make the broad‐taxa approach more feasible, enabling mechanistic studies on non‐model organisms. By combining these approaches with in vitro techniques together with the broad‐taxa approach, researchers can gain insights into less‐explored impacts of pollution, such as changes in population diversity, the development of tolerance and transgenerational inheritance of pollution responses, the impact on organism phenotypic plasticity, biological invasion outcomes, social behaviour changes, metabolome changes, regeneration phenomena, disease susceptibility and tissue pathologies. This review also emphasises the need for harmonised data‐reporting standards and minimum annotation checklists to ensure that research results are findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR), maximising the use and reusability of data. The ultimate goal is to encourage integrated and holistic problem‐focused collaboration between diverse scientific disciplines, international standardisation organisations and decision‐making bodies, with a focus on transdisciplinary knowledge co‐production for the One‐Health approach.
