Abstract: Anthropic activities impact ecosystems worldwide thus contributing to the rapid erosion of biodiversity. The failure of traditional strategies targeting single species highlighted ecosystems as the most suitable scale to plan biodiversity management. Network analysis represents an ideal tool to model interactions in ecosystems and centrality indices have been extensively applied to quantify the structural and functional importance of species in food webs. However, many network studies fail in deciphering the ecological mechanisms that lead some species to occupy the most central positions in food webs. To address this question, we built a high-resolution food web of the Gulf of California and quantified species position using 15 centrality indices and the trophic level. We then modelled the values of each index as a function of traits and other attributes (e.g., habitat).

    Atlantic Croaker Micropogonias Undulatus Contributor: J

    Atlantic Croaker Micropogonias undulatus Contributor: J. David Whitaker DESCRIPTION Taxonomy and Basic Description The Atlantic croaker is the only representative of the genus in the western North Atlantic. This species gets its name from the deep By Diane Rome Peebles from the Florida Division of Marine Resources Web Site. croaking sounds created by muscular action on the air bladder. It is one of 23 members of the family Sciaenidae found along the Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico coasts (Mercer 1987). The species has a typical fusiform shape, although it is somewhat vertically compressed. The fish is silvery overall with a faint pinkish-bronze cast. The back and upper sides are grayish, with brassy or brown spots forming wavy lines on the side (Manooch 1988). The gill cover has three to five prominent spines and there are three to five small chin barbels. It has a slightly convex caudal fin. Atlantic croaker south of Cape Hatteras reach maturity after one year at lengths of 140 to 180 mm (5.5 to 7 inches) and are thought to not survive longer than one or two years (Diaz and Onuf 1985). North of Cape Hatteras, the fish matures a year later at lengths greater than 200 mm (8 inches) and individuals may live several years. The Atlantic croaker reaches a maximum length of 500 mm (20 inches) (Hildebrand and Schroeder 1927). Catches of large Atlantic croaker appear to be relatively common on Chesapeake Bay, but large individuals of Atlantic croaker are rare in South Carolina. Bearden (1964) speculated that small croaker from South Carolina may migrate north, but limited tagging studies could not corroborate that assertion.

Phylogenetic analyses were Fish performed on 97 grunt species based on sequence data collected from seven loci. Divergence time estimation Functional traits indicates that Haemulidae originated during the mid Eocene (54.7–42.3 Ma) but that the major lineages were Morphospace formed during the mid-Oligocene 30–25 Ma. We propose a new classification that reflects the phylogenetic Macroevolution history of grunts. Overall the pattern of morphological and functional diversification in grunts appears to be Zooplanktivore strongly linked with feeding ecology. Feeding traits and the first principal component of body shape strongly separate species that feed in benthic and pelagic habitats. The benthic-to-pelagic axis has been the major axis of ecomorphological diversification in this important group of tropical shoreline fishes, with about 13 transitions between feeding habitats that have had major consequences for head and body morphology.

POMORY 2007 Department of Biology, University of West Florida, 11000 University Parkway, Pensacola, FL 32514, USA. [email protected] ABSTRACT A key is given for 85 species of ophiuroids from the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea covering a depth range from the intertidal down to 30 m. Figures highlighting important anatomical features associated with couplets in the key are provided. 2 INTRODUCTION The Caribbean region is one of the major coral reef zoogeographic provinces and a region of intensive human use of marine resources for tourism and fisheries (Aide and Grau, 2004). With the world-wide decline of coral reefs, and deterioration of shallow-water marine habitats in general, ecological and biodiversity studies have become more important than ever before (Bellwood et al., 2004). Ecological and biodiversity studies require identification of collected specimens, often by biologists not specializing in taxonomy, and therefore identification guides easily accessible to a diversity of biologists are necessary.
  • Two New Brittle Star Species of the Genus Ophiothrix

    Two New Brittle Star Species of the Genus Ophiothrix

    Caribbean Journal of Science, Vol. 41, No. 3, 583-599, 2005 Copyright 2005 College of Arts and Sciences University of Puerto Rico, Mayagu¨ez Two New Brittle Star Species of the Genus Ophiothrix (Echinodermata: Ophiuroidea: Ophiotrichidae) from Coral Reefs in the Southern Caribbean Sea, with Notes on Their Biology GORDON HENDLER Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, 900 Exposition Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90007, U.S.A. [email protected] ABSTRACT.—Two new species, Ophiothrix stri and Ophiothrix cimar, inhabit shallow reef-platforms and slopes in the Southern Caribbean, and occur together at localities in Costa Rica and Panama, nearly to Colombia. What appears to be an undescribed species resembling O. cimar has been reported from eastern Venezuela. In recent years, reefs where the species were previously observed have deteriorated because of environmental degradation. As a consequence, populations of the new species may have been reduced or eradicated. The new species have previously been mistaken for O. angulata, O. brachyactis, and O. lineata. Ophiothrix lineata, O. stri, and O. cimar have in common a suite of morphological features pointing to their systematic affinity, and a similar pigmentation pattern consisting of a thin, dark, medial arm stripe flanked by two pale stripes. Ophiothrix lineata is similar to Indo-Pacific members of the subgenus Placophiothrix and closely resembles Ophiothrix stri. The latter is extremely similar to O. synoecina, from Colombia, and both can live in association with the rock-boring echinoid Echinometra lucunter. Although O. synoecina is a protandric hermaphrodite that reportedly broods its young externally, the new species are gonochoric and do not brood.

CALIFORNIA MARINE FISH LANDINGS FOR 1972 LEO PINKAS Marine Resources Region 1.1. INTRODUCTION The protection, propagation, and wise utilization of California's living marine resources (established as common property by statute, Section 1600, Fish and Game Code) is dependent upon the welding of biological, environment- al, economic, and sociological factors. Fundamental to each of these factors, as well as the entire management pro- cess, are harvest records. The California Department of Fish and Game began gathering commercial fisheries land- ing data in 1916. Commercial fish catches were first published in 1929 for the years 1926 and 1927. This report, the 32nd in the landing series, is for the calendar year 1972. It summarizes commercial fishing activities in marine as well as fresh waters and includes the catches of the sportfishing partyboat fleet. Preliminary landing data are published annually in the circular series which also enumerates certain fishery products produced from the catch.

Fish larvae and particularly eggs are 30 difficult to identify morphologically, therefore the DNA barcoding method was employed to 31 identify 4,388 specimens, resulting in 157 Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) corresponding 32 to species. Scarus sp., Halichoeres dispilus, Xyrichtys mundiceps, Euthynnus lineatus, 33 Ammodytoides gilli, Synodus lacertinus, Etrumeus acuminatus, Chanos chanos, Haemulon 34 flaviguttatum, and Vinciguerria lucetia were the most abundant and frequent species recorded.
