Ampharete oculicirrata sp. nov. (Annelida: Ampharetidae) is described from samples collected by the Joint Nature Conservation Committee and Marine Scotland Science, in the West Shetland Shelf NCMPA in the NE Atlantic. This species is characterised by a very small body size, thin and slender paleae, twelve thoracic and eleven abdominal uncinigers, presence of eyes both in the prostomium and the pygidium, the latter provided with a pair of long lateral cirri. -
Convergent Evolution of the Ladder-Like Ventral Nerve Cord in Annelida Conrad Helm1*, Patrick Beckers2, Thomas Bartolomaeus2, Stephan H
Helm et al. Frontiers in Zoology (2018) 15:36 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12983-018-0280-y RESEARCH Open Access Convergent evolution of the ladder-like ventral nerve cord in Annelida Conrad Helm1*, Patrick Beckers2, Thomas Bartolomaeus2, Stephan H. Drukewitz3, Ioannis Kourtesis1, Anne Weigert4, Günter Purschke5, Katrine Worsaae6, Torsten H. Struck7 and Christoph Bleidorn1,8* Abstract Background: A median, segmented, annelid nerve cord has repeatedly been compared to the arthropod and vertebrate nerve cords and became the most used textbook representation of the annelid nervous system. Recent phylogenomic analyses, however, challenge the hypothesis that a subepidermal rope-ladder-like ventral nerve cord (VNC) composed of a paired serial chain of ganglia and somata-free connectives represents either a plesiomorphic or a typical condition in annelids. Results: Using a comparative approach by combining phylogenomic analyses with morphological methods (immunohistochemistry and CLSM, histology and TEM), we compiled a comprehensive dataset to reconstruct the evolution of the annelid VNC. Our phylogenomic analyses generally support previous topologies. However, the so far hard-to-place Apistobranchidae and Psammodrilidae are now incorporated among the basally branching annelids with high support. Based on this topology we reconstruct an intraepidermal VNC as the ancestral state in Annelida. Thus, a subepidermal ladder-like nerve cord clearly represents a derived condition. Conclusions: Based on the presented data, a ladder-like appearance of the ventral nerve cord evolved repeatedly, and independently of the transition from an intraepidermal to a subepidermal cord during annelid evolution. Our investigations thereby propose an alternative set of neuroanatomical characteristics for the last common ancestor of Annelida or perhaps even Spiralia. -

DAY SEATTLE, WA JULY 1973 NOAA TECHNICAL REPORTS National Marine Fisheries Service, Circulars The major responsibilities of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) are to monitor and assess the abundance and geographic distribution of fishery resources, to understand and predict fluctuations in the quan- tity and distribution of these resources, and to establish levels for optimum use of the resources. NMFS is also charged with the development and implementation of policies for managing national fishing grounds, develop- ment and enforcement of domestic fisheries regulations, surveillance of foreign fishing off United States coastal waters, and the development and enforcement of international fishery agreements and policies. NMFS also assists the fishing industry through marketing service and economic analysis programs, and mortgage insurance and vessel construction subsidies. It collects, analyses, and publishes statistics on various phases of the industry. The NOAA Technical Report NMFS CIRC series continues a series that has been in existence since 1941. The Circulars are technical publications of general interest intended to aid conservation and management. Publica- tions that review in considerable detail and at a high technical level certain broad areas of research appear in this series. Technical papers originating in economics studies and from management investigations appear in the Circular series.

Systematics, Evolution and Phylogeny of Annelida – a Morphological Perspective

Memoirs of Museum Victoria 71: 247–269. Annelida, traditionally divided into Polychaeta and Clitellata, is an evolutionary ancient and ecologically important group today usually considered to be monophyletic. However, there is a long debate regarding the in-group relationships as well as the direction of evolutionary changes within the group. This debate is correlated to the extraordinary evolutionary diversity of this group. Although annelids may generally be characterised as organisms with multiple repetitions of identically organised segments and usually bearing certain other characters such as a collagenous cuticle, chitinous chaetae or nuchal organs, none of these are present in every subgroup. This is even true for the annelid key character, segmentation. The first morphology-based cladistic analyses of polychaetes showed Polychaeta and Clitellata as sister groups. -
Deep-Sea Life
Deep-Sea Life Issue 4, November 2014 Welcome to the fourth edition of Deep-Sea Life: an informal publication for the deep-sea biology community. All your interesting contributions make editing this newsletter a real pleasure. We hope you like our choice for “Photo of the Issue”. These spectacular colonies of the bubble gum coral, Paragorgia arborea, were photographed in Corsair Canyon, Canada, during a joint Canadian/US venture to determine their distribution, abundance, diversity, size, growth rate, genetics and reproduction (see page 15 for report). Stories regarding activities in our deep oceans are becoming increasingly mainstream. This is clearly illustrated by the fact that a recent paper in our Hot Off the Press section (page 4) about scavenging of jellyfish carcasses (by Andrew Sweetman et al.) made it not only to the October issue of the Proceedings of the Royal Society B, but also into the New York Times and GQ magazine (for men)! Congratulations! Increasing visibility in the deep is also a function of impressive new programmes such as TREET which represents research at the complex interface between scientific fieldwork, new educational opportunities for students, and the expanding use of telepresence technologies to make remote exploration available to scientists, students and the general public (see page 12). Another fine example of bringing deep-ocean science to life is outlined on page 23 with a new “Science on a Sphere” outreach programme as explained by Stace Beaulieu. Remember to mark the dates for the 14th Deep-Sea Biology Symposium in your diaries for next year – 31st August to 4th September 2015. -

Eunicida is an order of Errantia annelids characterized by the presence of ventral mandibles and dorsal maxillae in a ventral muscularized pharynx. The origin of Eunicida dates back to the late Citation: Zanol, J.; Carrera-Parra, Cambrian, and the peaks of jaw morphology diversity and number of families are in the Ordovician. -
