Journal Article
Joof, E., Sanneh, B., Sambou, S. M., & Wade, C. M. (2021). Species diversity and distribution of schistosome intermediate snail hosts in The Gambia. PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 15(10), Article e0009823. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pntd.0009823

There is a need for recent information on intermediate snail hosts of schistosomes in The Gambia; the previous studies were conducted over three decades ago. This study assessed the incidence, species diversity, distribution and infection status of s...

Genetic Connectivity of Seamount Populations of Bluenose Warehou (Hyperoglyphe antarctica) (2021)
Journal Article
Heyworth, S. M., Bell, J. B., Wade, C. M., Cavalcante, G., Robinson, N., Young, E., …Feary, D. A. (2021). Genetic Connectivity of Seamount Populations of Bluenose Warehou (Hyperoglyphe antarctica). Frontiers in Marine Science, 8, Article 640504. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2021.640504

Quantifying the level of population connectivity within and between geographically separated single-species deep-water fisheries stocks will be vital for designing effective management plans to preserve such populations. Despite this, stock structure... Read More about Genetic Connectivity of Seamount Populations of Bluenose Warehou (Hyperoglyphe antarctica).

Varadia, a new helicarionoidean semi-slug genus from India's Western Ghats (Stylommatophora: Helicarionoidea) (2021)
Preprint / Working Paper
Varadia, a new helicarionoidean semi-slug genus from India's Western Ghats (Stylommatophora: Helicarionoidea)

We here describe a new Indian helicarionoidean genus, Varadia Bhosale & Raheem gen. nov., containing the single species Varadia amboliensis Bhosale, Thackeray, Muley & Raheem gen. et sp. nov. This new semi-slug is endemic to the northern and central... Read More about Varadia, a new helicarionoidean semi-slug genus from India's Western Ghats (Stylommatophora: Helicarionoidea).

Biogeographic distribution of three phylotypes (T1, T2 and T6) of ammonia (foraminifera, Rhizaria) around Great Britain: new insights from combined molecular and morphological recognition (2021)
Journal Article
Richirt, J., Schweizer, M., Mouret, A., Quinchard, S., Saad, S. A., Bouchet, V. M. P., …Jorissen, F. J. (2021). Biogeographic distribution of three phylotypes (T1, T2 and T6) of ammonia (foraminifera, Rhizaria) around Great Britain: new insights from combined molecular and morphological recognition. Journal of Micropalaeontology, 40(1), 61-74. https://doi.org/10.5194/jm-40-61-2021

Ammonia is one of the most widespread foraminiferal genera worldwide. Three phylotypes (Ammonia sp. T1, T2 and T6), commonly encountered in the northeast Atlantic, are usually associated with the morphospecies Ammonia tepida. The biogeographic distri...

Prevalence and risk factors of schistosomiasis among primary school children in four selected regions of the Gambia (2021)
Journal Article
Joof, E., Sanyang, A. M., Camara, Y., Seyid, A. P., Baldeh, I., Jah, S. L., …Sanneh, B. (2021). Prevalence and risk factors of schistosomiasis among primary school children in four selected regions of the Gambia. PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 15(5), Article e0009380. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pntd.0009380

Background The Gambia initiated a control programme for schistosomiasis in 2015. In light of this, recent and comprehensive data on schistosomiasis is required to effectively guide the control programme. This study aimed to evaluate the prevalence an...

Molecular phylogeny of the orthurethra (panpulmonata: Stylommatophora) (2021)
Journal Article
Saadi, A. J., Mordan, P. B., & Wade, C. M. (2021). Molecular phylogeny of the orthurethra (panpulmonata: Stylommatophora). Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 193(3), 1126-1140. https://doi.org/10.1093/zoolinnean/zlaa168

We have undertaken a molecular analysis of the Orthurethra, one of the major groups of stylommatophoran land snails and slugs. Approximately 4000 nucleotides of the rRNA gene cluster [5.8S, internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) and almost the full-len...
