India has a coastline of 8,118 km, with an exclusive economic zone (EEZ) of 2.02 million sq km and a continental shelf area of 468,000 sq km, spread across 10 coastal States and seven Union Territories, including the islands of Andaman and Nicobar and Lakshadweep. Indian coastal waters are extremely diverse attributing to the geomorphologic and climatic variations along the coast. The coastal and marine habitat includes near shore, gulf waters, creeks, tidal flats, mud flats, coastal dunes, mangroves, marshes, wetlands, seaweed and seagrass beds, deltaic plains, estuaries, lagoons and coral reefs. There are four major coral reef areas in India-along the coasts of the Andaman and Nicobar group of islands, the Lakshadweep group of islands, the Gulf of Mannar and the Gulf of Kachchh . The Andaman and Nicobar group is the richest in terms of diversity.

Mittelhauser Specimens cataloged by: Darrin Kelly Glen Mittelhauser Kit Sheehan Taxonomy assistance: Glen Mittelhauser, Maine Natural History Observatory Anne Favolise, Humboldt Field Research Institute Thomas Trott, Gerhard Pohle P.G. Ross 2 William Procter started work on the survey of the marine fauna of the Mount Desert Island region in the spring of 1926 after a summer’s spotting of the territory with a hand dredge. This work was continued from the last week in June until the first week of September through 1932. The specimens from this collection effort were brought back to Mount Desert Island recently. Although Procter noted that this inventorywas not intended to generate a complete list of all species recorded from the Mount Desert Island area, this inventory is the foundation on which all future work on the marine fauna in the region will build. An inven- tory of this magnitude has not been replicated in the region to date. This publication is the result of a major recovery effort for the collection initiated and funded by Acadia National Park. Many of the specimens in this collection were loosing preservative or were already dried out. Over a two year effort, Maine Natural History Observatory worked closely with Acadia National Park to re-house the collection in archival containers, re-hydrate specimens (through stepped concentrations of ethyl alcohol) that had dried, fully catalog the collection, and update the synonymy of specimens.

Zoological Studies 45(1): 24-66. A taxonomic key for the 40 valid species of sabellids (Polychaeta: Sabellidae) occurring in the Grand Caribbean is provided. Eighteen species are herein recorded from the Grand Caribbean, and 4 species new to science are described: Anamobaea phyllisae sp. nov. (Guana Island), Bispira paraporifera sp. nov. (Mexican Caribbean), Megalomma perkinsi sp. nov. (Florida), and Pseudopotamilla fitzhughi sp. nov. (Mexican Caribbean). Identifications were corroborated by comparisons with type and non-type material loaned from several museums. An annotated checklist of the sabellid polychaetes from the Grand Caribbean is provided, including type localities, museums where material is deposited, and tax- onomic remarks whenever necessary. The checklist comprises 56 species, of which 13 remain as questionable records, either because there is no type material, their records are isolated, or their type localities are far away from the Grand Caribbean. By presenting a complete overview of all records for sabellids in the area, this work summarizes our current knowledge of the diversity of this polychaete family in the Grand Caribbean, providing baseline data for future research. http://zoolstud.sinica.edu.tw/Journals/45.1/24.pdf Key words: Fan worms, Key, Checklist, New species.

Polychaeta were represented by 705 species, Oligochaeta by 13 species, and Hirudinea by 3 species. Syllidae (119 species) and Serpulidae (56 species) were the species-rich polychaete families. The majority of annelid species were benthic (691 species), 14 species were pelagic, and 3 species (leeches) were parasitic. Thirteen polychaete species were excluded from the species inventory. The Aegean Sea had the highest number of species (559 species), followed by the Levantine Sea (459 species) and the Sea of Marmara (398 species). The hot spot areas for the species diversity were İzmir Bay, Mersin Bay, the southwest part of the Sea of Marmara, and Sinop Peninsula, where intense scientific efforts have been carried out. A total of 75 alien polychaete species were reported from the regions, 22 of which were classified as invasive species.

POLYCHAETOUS ANNELIDS (ORDER SABELLIDA) FROM THE KARACHI COAST, PAKISTAN Sab·a Ishaq and Javed Mustaqubn Centre of Excellence in Marine Biology, University of Karachi, Karachi- 75270, Pakistan. ABSTRACT: Fifteen species of polychaete worms, belonging to order Sabe!Hda, are described from the Karachi coast. Of these 10 are new records for Pakistan: Hydroides albiceps (Grube, 1870), H. exaltatus (Marenzeller, 1885), H. heterocerus (Grube,. 1868), H. tuberculatus Imajima, 1976, Pomatoleios kraussii (Baird, 1865), Protula sp, Spirobranchus tetraceros (Schmarda, 1861), Vermiliopsis infundibulum glandigera­ group, Demonax sp. and Bispira cf. tricyclia (Schmarda, 1861). KEY WORDS: Polychaeta, Serpulidae, Sabellidae, systematics, Pakistan INTRODUCTION The order Sabellida belongs to the class Polychaeta. Within the order Sabellida, Fauchald (1977) placed five families of sedentary worms. His ordinal arrangement of families is still widely recognized in spite of later ideas on the subject. The families are : (1) Sabellidae Malmgren, 1867, (2) Caobangiidae Jones, 1974, (3) Sabellongidae Hartman, 1969, (4) Serpulidae Johnston, 1865 and (5) Spirorbidae PiHai, 1970. Out of these five families, so far only Sabellidae and Serpulidae are known to occur in the 'coastal waters of Pakistan. The polychaete fauna of Pakistan is poorly known as compared to the fauna of regions close to it. The total number of known species of Sabellida reported from Pakistan is eleven. Fauvel (1932) was the first worker who reported a sabellid worm, Sabellastarte indica Savigny, 1822 from Karachi.
