However, studies of these remarkable adaptations remain hampered by in- sufficient phylogenetic information. We present the first phylogenetic hypothesis of relationships among 36 extant genera of alpheid shrimps, based on a cladistic analysis of 122 morphological characters from 56 species, and we use this hypothesis to explore evolutionary trends in morphology and species diversity. Our results strongly supported a monophyletic Alpheidae that included two hitherto difficult-to-place genera (Yagerocaris and Pterocaris). Of 35 + nodes among genera, all were supported by at least one morphological character (24 were supported by two or more) and 17 received greater than 50% jackknife support. Unfortunately, many basal nodes were only weakly supported. Six genera appeared nonmonophyletic, including the dominant genus Alpheus (paraphyletic due to inclusion of one clade with three minor genera). Evolutionary trends in alpheid claw form shed some revealing light on how key innovations evolve. First, several functionally significant features of the cheliped (claw bearing leg) evolved inde- pendently multiple times, including: asymmetry, folding, inverted orientation, sexual dimorphism, adhesive plaques that enhance claw cocking, and tooth-cavity systems on opposing claw fingers, a preadaptation for snapping. Many conspicuous features of alpheid claw form therefore appear prone to parallel evolution. Second, although tooth-cavity systems evolved multiple times, a functional snapping claw, which likely facilitated an explosive radiation of over 550 species, evolved only once (in Synalpheus + [Alpheus + satellite genera]). Third, adhesive plaques (claw cocking aids) also evolved multiple times, and within snapping alpheids are associated with the most diverse clade (Alpheus + derivative genera). This pattern of parallel preadaptation—multiple independent evolutionary origins of precursors (preadaptations) to what ultimately became a key innovation (adaptation)—suggests alpheid shrimp claws are pre- disposed to develop features like tooth-cavity and adhesive plaque systems for functional or developmental reasons. Such functional/developmental predisposition may facilitate the origin of key innovations. Finally, moderate orbital hoods—anterior projections of the carapace partly or completely covering the eyes—occur in many higher Alpheidae and likely evolved before snapping claws. They are unique among decapod crustaceans, and their elaboration in snapping alpheids suggests they may protect the eyes from the stress of explosive snaps. Thus one key innovation (orbital hoods) may have facilitated evolution of a second (snapping claws). Key words.—Alpheidae, adaptive radiation, character evolution, Crustacea, Decapoda, novelty, parallel evolution. Received August 30, 2005. Accepted August 2, 2006. Parallelism, Preadaptation, and Key Innovations typically reflects an adaptive response to similar conditions (Futuyma 1998). Such parallel adaptive responses may be Examples of parallel evolution—the independent origin of facilitated by similar genetic (Schluter et al. 2004) or de- functionally and structurally similar traits among closely re- velopmental (Nijhout 1991) avenues.

The loud snap, one a spectacularly diverse clade of caridean shrimps within of the most audible and familiar of underwater noises, is which an undeniable key innovation evolved: the snapping detectable as far away as one kilometer (M.

The association is established at the juvenile stage soon after settlement and maintained throughout their lives. The members of the association are sometimes changed by the movement of the fish between burrows. Pair formation of the shrimp begins at the juvenile stage and the adults usually occur in pairs. Resin casts of burrows and the data on the daily positional change of the entrance of one bur­ row indicate that burrows are extensive enough to come close to the adjacent burrows within the sediment, suggesting that a solitary shrimp has a chance to acquire a mate through the connection of its burrovv vvith the adjacent burro~v.

Aberdeen University Press I ') THE ASSOCIATION BETWEEN GOBIID FISHES AND BURROWING ALPHEID SHRIMPS ILAN KA RPLUS Agricultural Research Organization, Fish and Aquaculture Research Station Dor, D.N. Hof Hacarmel 30820, Israel INTRODUCTION The association between gobiid fishes and burrowing alpheid shrimps was described for the first time by Longley & Hildebrand (1941) from southern Florida. The further study of this partnership was delayed until the intro­ duction of mask and snorkel and SCUBA diving as a tool for collecting material and carrying out detailed behavioural and ecological studies in the marine environment. The first aspect studied was the taxonomy of the gobies, a discipline which still leads the research ofthi association, probably due to the gobie ' diversity and richness in species and circumtropical distribution (Klausewitz, 1960 ; Lubbock & Polunin, 1977 ; Polunin & Lubbock, 1977 ; Yanagi awa, 1978 ; Hoese & Randall, 1982). The first ecological-behavioural studies were made by Luther (1958a,b) and Magnus (1967) in the Red Sea. In the northern Gulf of Elat, Red Sea, the present author has studied goby­ shrimp associations for more than seven years, concentrating on com­ munication, distribution and partner specificity (Karplus, 1970, 1976, 1979, 1981 ; Karplus, Szlep & Tsurnamal, I 972a, 1974, 198 l ; Karplus, Tsurnamal & Szlep, 1972b; Karplus & Vercheson, 1978 ; Karplus & Ben-Tuvia, 1979 ; Karplus, Tsurnamal, Szlep & Algom, 1979 ; Goren & Karplus, 1983).

Besides the introduc- tions via the Suez Canal, the most important vectors of introduction are imports for aquaculture purposes and trade. Most marine biota has spread in the south Aegean, while freshwater biota occur mostly in northern Greece. Prime source regions are the Indo-Pacific and America. For all source regions and taxonomic groups considered, the invasion rate has been increasing since the end of the last century, a trend indirectly related to the “tropicalization” of the Mediterra- nean Sea. Although the impact of AAS has been poorly documented, a literature review reveals many cases of formerly considered tropical species (such as the ciguatera causing genus Gambier- discus) in the Mediterranean Sea and specifically in Greek waters, the presence of which might not only affect the ecosystems, but also human health and economic activities, such as fisheries, aquaculture and tourism.
