Zootaxa, Description of Two New Deep-Water

(Eds) (2008) Bringing Light into Deep-sea Biodiversity. Zootaxa, 1866, 1–574. Abstract Among benthic mollusc samples from the deep Southern Atlantic Ocean collected during various expeditions of the Ger- man Research Vessel Polarstern were several representatives of the genus Brookula, of which four new deep water records are presented herein. Two of the species, B. bohni sp. nov. and B. charleenae sp. nov. are described and differ- ences to congeners are given. For Brookula argentina (Zelaya, Absalão & Pimenta, 2006) and B. exquisita Clarke, 1961 range extensions are provided. The problematic use of the genus Benthobrookula instead of the genus Brookula is dis- cussed and the use of the genus name Benthobrookula is discouraged until more detailed data on morphology and anat- omy are available. For the first time the soft part gross morphology of Brookula pfefferi Powell, 1951 has been investigated and illustrated. Brookula decussata (Pelseneer, 1903) has to be regarded as a potential senior synonym of B. pfefferi. Examination of the type material has shown that B. antarctica Dell, 1990 does not differ from B. -
Saltmarsh and Samphire
Baker, J. L. (2015) Marine Assets of Yorke Peninsula. Volume 2 of report for Natural Resources - Northern and Yorke, South Australia 6. Saltmarsh and Samphire © A. Brown Figure 6.1: Saltmarsh with samphire, in NY NRM Region. (A) Point Davenport; (B) Winninowie Conservation Park. Photos (c) A. Brown. (B): (c) Google Earth. Asset Saltmarsh and Samphire Description Areas of saline, mineral-rich, organic-rich, and low oxygen coastal soils within and above high tide level, often fronted by mangroves, and backed by saltbush shrubland. Saltmarsh supports various salt-tolerant plants, with samphires being the most common and significant in terms of cover in South Australia. There are distinct assemblages of salt-tolerant invertebrates associated with saltmarsh habitats. Saltmarshes provide habitat for fishes, including juveniles of species which utilise other marine habitats, and are an important feeding area for various bird species, including migratory shore birds. Examples of Birds Main Species Cormorant species (e.g.; Pied, Little Pied, and Black-faced) Caspian Tern and Little Tern Pied Oystercatcher and Sooty Oystercatcher Black-winged Stilt, Banded Stilt, Great Egret, White-faced Heron, Little Egret the threatened species Hooded Plover Little Stint Red-capped Plover Slender-billed Thornbill (Samphire Thornbill) Rock Parrot The raptors Eastern Osprey and White-bellied Sea Eagle Migratory shorebirds listed under international treaties, such as Bar-tailed Godwit, Curlew Sandpiper and Sharp-tailed Sandpiper, Red-necked Stint, Grey Plover , Red Knot, Common Greenshank, Ruddy Turnstones Bony Fishes juvenile Yelloweye Mullet juvenile Greenback Flounder juvenile Southern Blue-spotted Flathead Western Striped Grunter Congolli Glass Goby Small-mouthed Hardyhead Silver Fish Smooth Toadfish Goby species such as Blue-spotted Goby and Southern Longfin Goby Adelaide Weedfish Baker, J. -

Thanks to all contributors who have supported the Bulletin this year. Bulletin No.1 was published on the 19th of August 1968 and the current header commenced at issue 10, October 1970. The format although made easier by computer has changed little over the years and has provided a cost effective way of recording the activities of members and their research. Issues 100- 271 have now been scanned and stored in pdf form. Our Member‟s nights have been excellent this year. Live images of specimens taken by divers and from intertidal surveys, sometimes of species never recorded alive have been a feature of our meetings.

Pomacea Canaliculata (Lamarck, 1822)
Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck, 1822) Diagnostic features Distinguished from Pomacea diffusa by its larger sized shell (up to 75 mm in height) and deeply channelled suture. Animal with distinctive head-foot; snout uniquely with a pair of Pomacea canaliculata (adult size up to 75 mm in height) Characteristic pink egg mass, commonly laid on vegetation. distal, long, tentacle-like processes; cephalic tentacles very long. A long 'siphon' is also present. Classification Pomacea canaliculata (Lamarck, 1822) Common name: Golden apple snail Class Gastropoda I nfraclass Caenogastropoda I nformal group Architaenioglossa Order Ampullarida Superfamily Ampullarioidea Family Ampullariidae Genus Pomacea Perry, 1810 Original name: Ampullaria canaliculata Lamarck, 1822. Lamarck, J. B. P. A. de M. de (1822). Histoire naturelle des animaux sans vertèbres Tome sixième.LĘauteur, Paris. 1-232 pp. Type locality: Laguna Guadeloupe ? Santa Fe, Argentina (as ėRivierès de la Guadeloupe) Biology and ecology This species lives on sediment and on aquatic and semi-aquatic vegetation. t lays pink coloured egg masses on plants above the waterline. t has become a major pest of aquatic crops as it eats living plants including rice and taro crops. Distribution ntroduced from South America into the southern United States, East Asia, islands of the ndian Ocean and New Guinea. Notes This pest species has not as yet entered Australia, but ought to be considered a significant risk due to its presence as an invasive in the adjacent ndo-west Pacific region. Two other south Asian ampullariid species have regularly been intercepted by Australian Biosecurity ĕ they are Pila ampullacea (Linnaeus, 1758) and Pila globosa (Swainson, 1822). -

Symbionts and Diseases Associated with Invasive Apple Snails
Symbionts and diseases associated with invasive apple snails Cristina Damborenea, Francisco Brusa and Lisandro Negrete CONICET, División Zoología Invertebrados, Museo de La Plata (FCNyM-UNLP), Paseo del Bosque, 1900 La Plata, Argentina. Email: [email protected], fbrusa@ fcnym.unlp.edu.ar, [email protected] Abstract This contribution summarizes knowledge of organisms associated with apple snails, mainly Pomacea spp., either in a facultative or obligate manner, paying special attention to diseases transmitted via these snails to humans. A wide spectrum of epibionts on the shell and operculum of snails are discussed. Among them algae, ciliates, rotifers, nematodes, flatworms, oligochaetes, dipterans, bryozoans and leeches are facultative, benefitting from the provision of substrate, transport, access to food and protection. Among obligate symbionts, five turbellarian species of the genusTemnocephala are known from the branchial cavity, with T. iheringi the most common and abundant. The leech Helobdella ampullariae also spends its entire life cycle inside the branchial cavity; two copepod species and one mite are found in different sites inside the snails. Details of the nature of the relationships of these specific obligate symbionts are poorly known. Also, extensive studies of an intracellular endosymbiosis are summarized. Apple snails are the first or second hosts of several digenean species, including some bird parasites.A number of human diseases are transmitted by apple snails, angiostrongyliasis being the most important because of the potential seriousness of the disease. Additional keywords: Ampullariidae, Angiostrongylus, commensals, diseases, epibionts, parasites, Pomacea, symbiosis 73 Introduction The term “apple snail” refers to a number of species of freshwater snails belonging to the family Ampullariidae (Caenogastropoda) inhabiting tropical and subtropical regions (Hayes et al., 2015). -

Phylogenetic analyses were carried out at of gastropods identified as important intermediate the superfamily level and along with the morpholog- hosts for a wide range of digenean parasite species, at ical data were used to infer the generic affiliation of least throughout the Northern Hemisphere. However the species. nothing is known of trematode species infecting these snails in the Southern Hemisphere. This study is the first attempt at cataloguing the digenean parasites Introduction infecting littorinids in New Zealand. Examination of over 5,000 individuals of two species of the genus Digenean trematode parasites typically infect a Austrolittorina Rosewater, A. cincta Quoy & Gaim- gastropod as the first intermediate host in their ard and A. antipodum Philippi, from intertidal rocky complex life-cycles.
