Abstract The aim of this work is to provide some important morphological, ecological and reproductive features of 8 polyclad species from Tunisian waters belonging to Acotylea: Echinoplana celerrima Haswell, 1907, Leptoplana mediterranea (Bock, 1913), Discocelis tigrina (Blanchard, 1847) and Imogine mediterranea (Galleni, 1976) and Cotylea: Thysanozoon brocchii (Risso, 1818), Prosthiostomum siphunculus (Delle Chiaje, 1822), Yungia aurantiaca (Delle Chiaje, 1822) and Prostheceraeus moseleyi (Lang, 1884). New data on distribution of some species are added. Moreover, morphological data are provided for the first time in living specimens of D. tigrina. Based on our specimens, we confirm characterization of the two sub-orders Acotylea and Cotylea that have been already made in previous studies. Function of attachment organs in polyclads is discussed. On the other hand, data dealing with associated fauna are offered for all species. The two acotyleans E. celerrima and I. mediterranea were seen to cover their egg plates practicing thereby a parental care. This work could be a baseline for future taxonomic and behavioural investigations.

The list comprised field investigations, articles, grey literature, and unpublished data. Twenty-nine species of macroinvertebrates have been recorded since 1942, with a domination of the Ponto-Caspian faunistic elements. The majority of recorded species have broad distribution and are naturalized in the waters of Serbia, while occasional or single findings of seven taxa indicate that these species have failed to form populations. Presented results clearly show that the Danube is the main corridor for the introduction and spread of non-native species into Serbia. Keywords: Serbia; inland waters; allochthonous species; introduction 1. Introduction The Water Framework Directive (WFD) [1] represents key regulation and one of the most important documents in the European Union water legislation since it was adopted in 2000.

Ce papier est centré sur l’histoire récente des invasions par les crustacés malacostracés (Amphipodes et Décapodes) dans le bassin du Neva (le plus grand fleuve du nord-est de la Russie). Ce papier analyse nos données et celles de la littérature concernant la distribution géographique des invasifs dans le bassin du Neva (essentiellement six espèces Chelicorophium curvispinum, Pontogammarus robustoides, Gmelinoides fasciatus, Gammarus tigrinus, Eriocheir sinensis et Astacus leptodactylus). Nous discutons également de l’histoire des invasions par ces espèces exotiques, les vecteurs possibles de leur extension à partir de leur aire d’origine mais aussi l’effet potentiel des interactions trophiques entre les amphipodes et les décapodes exotiques et les espèces natives. Les principales voies d’invasions dans la mer Baltique à partir des différents bassins sont liées aux activités humaines (principalement liées à la création de continuum rivières-canaux/corridors d’invasions et introduction volontaire/commerce).

Canalization of the Rhine resulted in a reduction of heterogeneity to two main biotopes: sandy streambeds and riverbanks consisting of groyne stones. Both biotopes are heavily subjected to biological invasions, affecting the rivers food web structure. The Ponto- Caspian amphipods, Chelicorophium curvispinum and Dikerogammarus villosus, have exerted the highest impact on this food web.

    Micronesica 35-36:189-199. 2003 Checklist of polyclad flatworms (Platyhelminthes) from Micronesian coral reefs L. J. NEWMAN School of Environmental Science & Management Southern Cross University PO Box 157 Lismore, NSW Australia 2480 email:[email protected] G. PAULAY1, R. RITSON-WILLIAMS2 Marine Laboratory University of Guam Mangilao, Guam 96923 U.S.A AbstractWe record 68 species of polyclad flatworms from new material (all photo-documented) and 28 species from literature records, for a total diversity of 88 species for Micronesia. Up to 60% of the encountered species may be undescribed. Guam has the largest recorded fauna with 59 species, followed by 28 species known from Palau. Pseudocerotidae comprise 58% of documented species, and more than 3 times as many cotyleans than acotyleans are documented. This study shows that the polyclad fauna of Micronesia is diverse yet poorly known, and highlights the need for further work. Introduction Polyclad flatworms are conspicuous inhabitants of coral reefs especially throughout the Indo-West Pacific, yet their diversity within Micronesia remains poorly documented. Only five papers have dealt with the polyclad fauna of this large and diverse area (Kato 1943, Hyman 1955, 1959; Newman & Cannon 1997, Newman & Schupp 2002). This checklist represents the first comprehensive account of polyclad flatworms from Micronesian waters. Although many tropical polyclads are brightly colored and attract attention, they remain understudied partly for methodological reasons. Accurate taxonomic determinations involve examination of both the morphology of living animals and the anatomy of the reproductive structures (Newman & Cannon 1994a). Diagnostic color characters tend to disappear rapidly after fixation and need to be documented photographically from living animals.

John Bailer ABSTRACT CONSERVATION BIOLOGY OF THE GAMMARUS PECOS SPECIES COMPLEX: ECOLOGICAL PATTERNS ACROSS AQUATIC HABITATS IN AN ARID ECOSYSTEM by Richard A. Seidel This dissertation consists of three chapters, each of which addresses a topic in one of three related categories of research as required by the Ph.D. program in ecology as directed through the Department of Zoology at Miami University. Chapter 1, Phylogeographic analysis reveals multiple cryptic species of amphipods (Crustacea: Amphipoda) in Chihuahuan Desert springs, investigates how biodiversity conservation and the identification of conservation units among invertebrates are complicated by low levels of morphological difference, particularly among aquatic taxa. Accordingly, biodiversity is often underestimated in communities of aquatic invertebrates, as revealed by high genetic divergence between cryptic species. I analyzed PCR-amplified portions of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) gene and 16S rRNA gene for amphipods in the Gammarus pecos species complex endemic to springs in the Chihuahuan Desert of southeast New Mexico and west Texas. My analyses uncover the presence of seven separate species in this complex, of which only three nominal taxa are formally described. The distribution of these species is highly correlated with geography, with many present only in one spring or one spatially-restricted cluster of springs, indicating that each species likely merits protection under the U.S.

  • Alien Crustacea in Polish Waters – Amphipoda
    Aquatic Invasions (2007) Volume 2, Issue 1: 25-38 DOI 10.3391/ai.2007.2.1.3 © 2007 The Author(s) Journal compilation © 2007 REABIC (http://www.reabic.net) This is an Open Access article Research article Alien Crustacea in Polish waters – Amphipoda Michał Grabowski*, Krzysztof Jażdżewski and Alicja Konopacka Department of Invertebrate Zoology and Hydrobiology, University of Łódź, Banacha 12/16, 90-237 Łódź, Poland *Corresponding author E-mail: [email protected] Received 1 November 2006; accepted in revised form 9 February 2007 Abstract Among ca. 750 species of Crustacea recorded from Poland, 18 representatives of 5 orders of macro-crustaceans have been identified as alien species that have invaded or have been introduced to Polish waters. Out of 44 freshwater, brackishwater and semiterrestrial species of Amphipoda occurring in Poland (not counting several stygobiotic species), 8 species from three families may be included in this group. They are Corophiidae: Chelicorophium curvispinum (=Corophium curvispinum), Gammaridae: Gammarus roeselii, G. tigrinus, Chaetogammarus ischnus (=Echinogammarus ischnus), Pontogammaridae: Dikerogammarus haemobaphes, D. villosus, Pontogammarus robustoides and Obesogammarus crassus. It is noticeable that most of them (C. curvispinum, C. ischnus, D. haemobaphes, D. villosus, P. robustoides, O. crassus) are of Ponto-Caspian origin, one species was introduced from North America (G. tigrinus), and one from south-eastern Europe (G. roeselii). All the species listed above have spread widely in Poland, in large rivers and artifical reservoirs (Chelicorophium curvispinum, Dikerogammarus villosus, D. haemobaphes, Pontogammarus robustoides, Gammarus tigrinus) or in medium sized rivers (Gammarus roeselii), in brackish coastal waters (Obesogammarus crassus) or both in fresh and brackish waters (Gammarus tigrinus, Pontogammarus robustoides).
