Abstract: The collecting trips by Ørsted and Kröyer in Central and South America resulted in a series of papers by Grube, the Annulata örstediana which contained the proposal for seven genera and descriptions for 84 species. There are some problems dealing with the correct number of contributions, their publication dates, the correct citation for the authors for each species name and sometimes even for the type locality. In order to improve the current situation, we have consulted the original publications together with the corresponding col- lections. Our results indicate that there were only three parts in the series which were published in the journal, and repagination in reprints sometimes caused some further confusion. Additionally, we provided some review comments on the species current status and we added a short nomenclatural note on Hemipodus (Polychaeta: Glyceridae) trying to clarify the correct generic name and type species.

  • Of Polychaetes (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Atlantic and Mediterranean Coasts of the Iberian Peninsula: an Annotated Checklist E
    López and Richter Helgol Mar Res (2017) 71:19 DOI 10.1186/s10152-017-0499-6 Helgoland Marine Research ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Non‑indigenous species (NIS) of polychaetes (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts of the Iberian Peninsula: an annotated checklist E. López* and A. Richter Abstract This study provides an updated catalogue of non-indigenous species (NIS) of polychaetes reported from the conti- nental coasts of the Iberian Peninsula based on the available literature. A list of 23 introduced species were regarded as established and other 11 were reported as casual, with 11 established and nine casual NIS in the Atlantic coast of the studied area and 14 established species and seven casual ones in the Mediterranean side. The most frequent way of transport was shipping (ballast water or hull fouling), which according to literature likely accounted for the intro- ductions of 14 established species and for the presence of another casual one. To a much lesser extent aquaculture (three established and two casual species) and bait importation (one established species) were also recorded, but for a large number of species the translocation pathway was unknown. About 25% of the reported NIS originated in the Warm Western Atlantic region, followed by the Tropical Indo West-Pacifc region (18%) and the Warm Eastern Atlantic (12%). In the Mediterranean coast of the Iberian Peninsula, nearly all the reported NIS originated from warm or tropi- cal regions, but less than half of the species recorded from the Atlantic side were native of these areas. The efects of these introductions in native marine fauna are largely unknown, except for one species (Ficopomatus enigmaticus) which was reported to cause serious environmental impacts.

  • Bathyal and Abyssal Polychaetes (Annelids) from the Central Coast of Oregon
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF DANIL RAY HANCOCK for the MASTER OF SCIENCE (Name) (Degree) in OCEANOGRAPHY presented on (Major) (Date) Title: BATHYAL AND ABYSSAL POLYCIiAETES (ANNELIDS) FROM THE CENTRAL COAST OF OREGON Abstract approved Redacted for Privacy Andtew G. Ca4ey, Jr. Polychaete annelids from 48 benthic samples containing over 2000 specimens were identified.Samples were taken with either an anchor dredge or an anchor-box dredge from a 15 station transect (44° 39. l'N) that ranges from 800 to 2900 meters in depth.Sediment subsamples were collected and analyzed for organic carbon and sedi- ment particle size using standard techniques.Temperature and oxygen of the water near the bottom were taken with a modified Smith- McIntyre grab; however, these measurements were not taken simultaneously with the dredged biological samples. The results indicated that at least 115 species in 53 families of the class Polychaeta were represented in this transect line.This study found an absence of the families Serpulidae and Syllidae and a reduction of the number of speciesin the families Nereidae, Cirratulidae and Capitellidae.Only five genera had not previously been reported from the deep sea.The depth distribution of the polychaetous annelids recovered in this study, coupled with limited physical data, suggest that five faunal regions can be distinguished. Nine new forms of polychaeteous annelids are tentativelydescribed, and others are anticipated in future collections.Suggestions for future studies are also indicated. Bathyal and Abyssal Polychaetes

ZooKeys 241: 21–31. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.241.3820 Abstract The hesionid polychaete genera Oxydromus Grube, 1855 and Ophiodromus Sars, 1862 have been regarded as synonyms with the former considered as invalid since it was thought to be a junior homonym of Oxydromus Schlegel, 1854. However, Schlegel’s name is an incorrect subsequent spelling for Ocydromus Wagler, 1830 (Aves, Gruiformes, Rallidae) and is not an available name. Consequently, Oxydromus Grube, 1855 must be reinstated for this hesionid polychaete genus. A check-list of valid species of Oxydromus including 30 new combinations is provided. Keywords Nomenclature, taxonomy, hesionid, Phyllodocida, Annelida Introduction Grube (1855) proposed Oxydromus within the polychaete family Phyllodocidae for O. fasciatus Grube, 1855, a new species capable of rapid movement from two Mediter- ranean Sea localities: Trieste (Italy) and Villa Franca (probably Villefranche-sur-Mer, France).

Zoological Studies 51(6): 762-767. This paper is the 1st report on the association between Hesione picta and Ophionereis reticulata, based on specimens found in the southwestern Atlantic, State of Paraíba, Brazil. The associated partners were found under rocks during low tide. We studied 30 specimens of O. reticulata, which harbored 30 hesionids. Observations of animals in aquaria showed that the polychaete responded to the presence of the ophiuroid, slowly crawling until it touched the latter. After recognizing its partner, the polychaete remained in its habitual position on the aboral surface of the ophiuroid, as also observed in the natural environment. On the other hand, when the hesionid was placed with other ophiuroid species which coexist at the same locality, the animals withdrew from each other. http://zoolstud.sinica.edu.tw/Journals/51.6/762.pdf Key words: Hesionid, Ophionereidid, Intertidal fauna. Both the ecology and ecological roles of ophiuroids and starfishes were found on the polychaete associations have recently received disc, arms, and even the oral cavity of the hosts increasing attention (Britayev 1989, Britayev et al.

A cooperative decision-making process is used within the program to address diverse resource management concerns in the 4,400 square mile study area. Many of these partners also financially support the Program, which, in turn, affords the Program opportunities to fund projects such as this. The entities that have financially supported the program include the following: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Southwest Florida Water Management District South Florida Water Management District Florida Department of Environmental Protection Florida Coastal Zone Management Program Peace River/Manasota Regional Water Supply Authority Polk, Sarasota, Manatee, Lee, Charlotte, DeSoto and Hardee Counties Cities of Sanibel, Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Punta Gorda, North Port, Venice and Fort Myers Beach and the Southwest Florida Regional Planning Council. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This document was prepared with support from the Charlotte Harbor National Estuary Program with supplemental support from Mote Marine Laboratory. The project was conducted through the Benthic Ecology Program of Mote's Center for Coastal Ecology. Mote staff project participants included: Principal Investigator James K. Culter; Field Biologists and Invertebrate Taxonomists, Jay R. Leverone, Debi Ingrao, Anamari Boyes, Bernadette Hohmann and Lucas Jennings; Data Management, Jay Sprinkel and Janet Gannon; Sediment Analysis, Jon Perry and Ari Nissanka.
