Identification Crepidula fornicata usually sit in stacks on a hard substrate, e.g., a shell of other molluscs, boulders or rocky outcroppings. Up to 13 animals have been reported in one stack, but usually 4-6 animals are seen in a stack. Individual shells are up to about 60 mm in length, cap-shaped, distinctly longer than wide. The “spire” is almost invisible, slightly skewed to the right posterior end of the shell. Shell height is highly variable. Inside the body whorl is a characteristic calcareous shell-plate (septum) behind which the visceral mass is protected.

    Pacific Plate Biogeography, with Special Reference to Shorefishes VICTOR G. SPRINGER m SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 367 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoo/ogy Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world cf science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

PHILLIP S. LOBEL2 ABSTRACT: Bodianus prognathus, a new species, is described from Fanning Atoll , Line Islands, Central Pacific. It is distinct from its congeners by having an extremely elongate snout. It resembles B . diana in color pattern. THE GENUS Bodianus of the labrid tribe of the dorsal fin. The width of the body was Hypsigenyini was recently revised by measured just behind the gills. Head length Gomon (1979). The description of Bodianus is from the tip of the upper lip to the end of prognathus herein brings the number of the opercular membrane. Snout length was known species of the genus to 29. This new measured from the anterior midpoint of the species is known only from Fanning Atoll , orbital rim to the tip of the upper lip. Upper Line Islands , Central Pacific (3°55' N, jaw length was measured from the most 159°23' W). It is unique within the genus in anterior end of the upper lip to the lower having a greatly elongated snout. Although posterior edge of the maxilla. The inter­ the configuration is overtly similar to that of orbital width is the bony width. The dia­ Gomphosus varius, also of the family Labri ­ meter of the orbit is the greatest inside dia­ dae, there is no doubt that B . prognathus is meter. The length of the caudal peduncle is allocated to the proper genus (Martin measured horizontally between verticals at Gomon, personal communication).

Morphological analysis of several specimens showed distinct differences from other known semaestome spe- cies in the Mediterranean Sea and unquestionably identified them as belonging to a new pelagiid species within genus Pelagia. The new species is morphologically distinct from P. noctiluca, currently the only recognized valid species in the genus, and from other doubtful Pelagia species recorded from other areas of the world. Molecular analyses of mitochon- drial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and nuclear 28S ribosomal DNA genes corroborate its specific distinction from P. noctiluca and other pelagiid taxa, supporting the monophyly of Pelagiidae. Thus, we describe Pelagia benovici sp.

This large scyphomedusa, which may develop a bell diameter of more than 1 m, was fi rst described in 1880 by Haeckel based on four specimens collected near the Dalmatian island Hvar. The paucity of this species records since its description confi rms its rarity, however, in the last 15 years sightings of D. dalmatinum have been more frequent.

Questa grande scifomedusa, che può sviluppare un cappello di diametro di oltre 1 m, è stata descrit- ta per la prima volta nel 1880 da Haeckel, in base a quattro esemplari catturati vicino all’isola di Lèsina (Hvar) in Dalmazia. La scarsità delle segnalazioni di questa specie dalla sua prima descrizione conferma la sua rarità.
