Cladistic analysis of Medusozoa and cnidarian evolution

António Carlos Marques, Allen G. Collins · 1 Mar 2004

Abstract. A cladistic analysis of 87 morphological and life history characters of medusozoan cnidarians, rooted with Anthozoa, results in the phylogenetic hypothesis (Anthozoa (Hydrozoa (Scyphozoa (Staurozoa, Cubozoa)))). Staurozoa is a new class of Cnidaria consisting of Stauromedusae and the fossil group Conulatae. Scyphozoa is redefined as including those medusozoans characterized by strobilation and ephyrae (Coronatae,…

On bivalve phylogeny: a high‐level analysis of the Bivalvia (Mollusca) based on combined morphology and DNA sequence data

Gonzalo Giribet, Ward C. Wheeler · 1 Nov 2002

Abstract. Bivalve classification has suffered in the past from the crossed‐purpose discussions among paleontologists and neontologists, and many have based their proposals on single character systems. More recently, molecular biologists have investigated bivalve relationships by using only gene sequence data, ignoring paleontological and neontological data. In the present study we have compiled morphological and anatomical…

Dormancy in Invertebrates

Carla E. Cáceres · 1 Jan 1997

The ability to survive in a dormant state is a widespread, yet unevenly distributed feature among invertebrates. Organisms belonging to classes and phyla that include fresh-water or terrestrial representatives are more likely to possess a dormant stage than those in groups that are exclusively marine. Moreover, within taxa where has evolved, it is more common…

Choanoflagellates, choanocytes, and animal multicellularity

Manuel Maldonado · 1 Mar 2004

Abstract. It is widely accepted that multicellular animals (metazoans) constitute a monophyletic unit, deriving from ancestral choanoflagellate‐like protists that gave rise to simple choanocyte‐bearing metazoans. However, a re‐assessment of molecular and histological evidence on choanoflagellates, sponge choanocytes, and other metazoan cells reveals that the status of choanocytes as a fundamental cell type in metazoan evolution…

Temperate and tropical algal‐sea anemone symbioses

Gisèle Muller‐Parker, Simon K. Davy · 1 May 2001

Abstract. In this review, we seek to develop new insights about the nature of algal‐sea anemone symbioses by comparing such associations in temperate and tropical seas. Temperate seas undergo pronounced seasonal cycles in irradiance, temperature, and nutrients, while high irradiance, high temperature, and low nutrients are seasonally far less variable in tropical seas. We compare…

Invertebrate Biology template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Invertebrate Biology format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Invertebrate Biology template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Wiley format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Invertebrate Biology use?
Invertebrate Biology uses Author–year (Chicago) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." Invertebrate Biology 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Invertebrate Biology?
No. DocuGuru generates the USG LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Wiley-ready Invertebrate Biology document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Invertebrate Biology template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Invertebrate Biology format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Invertebrate Biology?
Invertebrate Biology is a multidisciplinary journal published by Wiley. DocuGuru's Invertebrate Biology template matches Wiley's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Invertebrate Biology PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Invertebrate Biology template (the USG class) that is ready to submit to Wiley, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Invertebrate Biology template cost?
You can start writing in the Invertebrate Biology template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Invertebrate Biology PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
