  • Towards a Management Hierarchy (Classification) for the Catalogue of Life
    TOWARDS A MANAGEMENT HIERARCHY (CLASSIFICATION) FOR THE CATALOGUE OF LIFE Draft Discussion Document Rationale The Catalogue of Life partnership, comprising Species 2000 and ITIS (Integrated Taxonomic Information System), has the goal of achieving a comprehensive catalogue of all known species on Earth by the year 2011. The actual number of described species (after correction for synonyms) is not presently known but estimates suggest about 1.8 million species. The collaborative teams behind the Catalogue of Life need an agreed standard classification for these 1.8 million species, i.e. a working hierarchy for management purposes. This discussion document is intended to highlight some of the issues that need clarifying in order to achieve this goal beyond what we presently have. Concerning Classification Life’s diversity is classified into a hierarchy of categories. The best-known of these is the Kingdom. When Carl Linnaeus introduced his new “system of nature” in the 1750s ― Systema Naturae per Regna tria naturae, secundum Classes, Ordines, Genera, Species …) ― he recognised three kingdoms, viz Plantae, Animalia, and a third kingdom for minerals that has long since been abandoned. As is evident from the title of his work, he introduced lower-level taxonomic categories, each successively nested in the other, named Class, Order, Genus, and Species. The most useful and innovative aspect of his system (which gave rise to the scientific discipline of Systematics) was the use of the binominal, comprising genus and species, that uniquely identified each species of organism. Linnaeus’s system has proven to be robust for some 250 years. The starting point for botanical names is his Species Plantarum, published in 1753, and that for zoological names is the tenth edition of the Systema Naturae published in 1758.

The biodiverse Rotifera of northeast India (NEI) revealed 303 species belonging to 53 genera and 24 families; ~96% of these species examined from seven states of NEI affirm the rotifer heterogeneity of our plankton and semi-plank- ton collections. This study documents the record number of species of global and regional biogeographic interest, high- lights affinity with Southeast Asian and Australian faunas, and indicates notable heterogeneity in richness and composition amongst the seven northeastern states. The speciose rotifers of small lentic biotopes of Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram, Nagaland, Meghalaya, Manipur and Tripura, the floodplain lakes beels( ) and small wetlands (dobas and dubies) of the Brahmaputra and the Barak floodplains of Assam, and the floodplain lakes (pats) of Manipur are noteworthy. Deepor Beel and Loktak Lake (two Ramsar sites) are the globally rich rotifer `hotspots’. Interesting assemblages per sample of 80+ species in certain beels and pats, and up to 50 species in dobas and dubies depict the `Rotifera paradox’.

    Rec. zool. Surv. India: l09(Part-3) : 41-60, 2009 BIODIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTION OF FRESHWATER ROTIFERS (ROTIFERA: EUROTATORIA) OF TAMIL NADU B.K. SHARMA Freshwater Biology Laboratory, Department of Zoology, North-Eastern Hill University, Umshing, Shillong-793 022, Meghalaya e-mail: [email protected] and SUMITA SHARMA Eastern Regional Station, Zoological Survey of India, Risa Colony, Fruit Gardens, Shillong-793 003, Meghalaya, e-mail: [email protected] INTRODUCTION Taxonomic studies on freshwater Rotifera of Tamil Nadu were initiated by Edmondson and Hutchinson (1934); about two dozen papers published during the time span of more than seven decades indicate that their faunal diversity is still inadequately explored. A large number of earlier works, however, deal with scattered reports of various taxa or record only planktonic species. The detailed faunal surveys from this state are yet lacking while samples from certain districts are examined by Daisy (2001) and Sivakumar and Altaff (2001). Raghunathan and Suresh Kumar (2006) compiled a list of the rotifers reported from Tamil Nadu based on the published literature; it reflects several nomenclatural anomalies, incorrect family allocations, obsolete names and records requiring confirmation and, hence, requires a critical analysis. The present study, a part of our investigations on Fauna volume of Indian Freshwater Rotifera, documents 139 species (149 taxa) belonging to 38 genera and 20 families from Tamil Nadu and, includes 38 new records from this state and 20 new reports from the southern India. This study raises the micro-faunal diversity of Tamil Nadu Rotifera to 177 species (188 taxa); an up-dated systematic inventory is presented and, various interesting species are briefly diagnosed and illustrated.

  • Antarctic Bdelloid Rotifers: Diversity, Endemism and Evolution
    1 Antarctic bdelloid rotifers: diversity, endemism and evolution 2 3 Introduction 4 5 Antarctica’s ecosystems are characterized by the challenges of extreme environmental 6 stresses, including low temperatures, desiccation and high levels of solar radiation, all of 7 which have led to the evolution and expression of well-developed stress tolerance features in 8 the native terrestrial biota (Convey, 1996; Peck et al., 2006). The availability of liquid water, 9 and its predictability, is considered to be the most important driver of biological and 10 biodiversity processes in the terrestrial environments of Antarctica (Block et al., 2009; 11 Convey et al., 2014). Antarctica’s extreme conditions and isolation combined with the over- 12 running of many, but importantly not all, terrestrial and freshwater habitats by ice during 13 glacial cycles, underlie the low overall levels of diversity that characterize the contemporary 14 faunal, floral and microbial communities of the continent (Convey, 2013). Nevertheless, in 15 recent years it has become increasingly clear that these communities contain many, if not a 16 majority, of species that have survived multiple glacial cycles over many millions of years 17 and undergone evolutionary radiation on the continent itself rather than recolonizing from 18 extra-continental refugia (Convey & Stevens, 2007; Convey et al., 2008; Fraser et al., 2014). 19 With this background, high levels of endemism characterize the majority of groups that 20 dominate the Antarctic terrestrial fauna, including in particular Acari, Collembola, Nematoda 21 and Tardigrada (Pugh & Convey, 2008; Convey et al., 2012). 22 The continent of Antarctica is ice-bound, and surrounded and isolated from the other 23 Southern Hemisphere landmasses by the vastness of the Southern Ocean.

  • The Diversity of Indian Brachionidae (Rotifera: Eurotatoria: Monogononta) and Their Distribution
    Opusc. Zool. Budapest, 2014, 45(2): 165–180 The diversity of Indian Brachionidae (Rotifera: Eurotatoria: Monogononta) and their distribution B. K. SHARMA and S. SHARMA B. K. Sharma and Sumita Sharma, Freshwater Biology Laboratory, Department of Zoology, North- Eastern Hill University, Permanent Campus, Shillong-793022, Meghalaya, India E-mails: [email protected] (corresponding author), [email protected] Abstract. We evaluate diversity status of the Brachionidae of India and present an annotated checklist of 46 species excluding dubious and unconfirmed reports. These merit biodiversity value as ~27% of the global diversity of the taxon and ~81% of its Oriental species. We observed two Australasian elements, two Oriental endemics, one Indian endemic, one paleo- tropical and one cosmo (sub) tropical species. The cold-water Keratella serrulata and Notholca squamula are new records from eastern Himalayas. Maximum brachionid diversity (32 species) from Assam state of northeast India (NEI) is followed by the reports of 27 and 26 species from Tamil Nadu and West Bengal, respectively; 25 species each from Tripura and Maharashtra; and 24 species from Jammu & Kashmir. Brachionus, the most diverse brachionid genus, is widely distributed in India with low richness in hill states of NEI and coastal waters in particular. The Indian brachionid taxonomy is confounded with unconfirmed reports, misidentifications, invalid taxa, and inconsistent treatment of morphological variants, while analysis of cryptic diversity in Brachionus calyciflorus,

  • Rates of Nucleotide Substitution in Sexual and Anciently Asexual Rotifers
    Rates of nucleotide substitution in sexual and anciently asexual rotifers David B. Mark Welch and Matthew S. Meselson* Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA 02138 Contributed by Matthew S. Meselson, March 26, 2001 The class Bdelloidea of the phylum Rotifera is the largest well develop into highly reduced haploid males that, by mating with studied eukaryotic taxon in which males and meiosis are unknown, females bearing haploid eggs, give rise to females that reinitiate and the only one for which these indications of ancient asexuality the asexual cycle (22, 23). are supported by cytological and molecular genetic evidence. We Bdelloid remains have been reported in 30–40-million-year- estimated the rates of synonymous and nonsynonymous substi- old amber (24) and measurements of DNA sequence divergence tutions in the hsp82 heat shock gene in bdelloids and in faculta- suggest that bdelloids and monogononts separated well before tively sexual rotifers of the class Monogononta, employing dis- that (19, 20, 25). Bdelloids and monogononts seem to be similar tance based and maximum likelihood methods. Relative-rate tests, in genomic DNA content, with about 109 bp in the species that using acanthocephalan rotifers as an outgroup, showed slightly have been studied (26, 27). They also have comparable fecundity higher rates of nonsynonymous substitution and slightly lower and generation times, with 16–32 oocytes per ovary and an Ϸ rates of synonymous substitution in bdelloids as compared with average of 2–3 weeks between generations under favorable monogononts. The opposite trend, however, was seen in intraclass conditions (26, 28–32).

  • A Modern Approach to Rotiferan Phylogeny: Combining Morphological and Molecular Data
    Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution 40 (2006) 585–608 www.elsevier.com/locate/ympev A modern approach to rotiferan phylogeny: Combining morphological and molecular data Martin V. Sørensen ¤, Gonzalo Giribet Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, 16 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, MA 02138, USA Received 30 November 2005; revised 6 March 2006; accepted 3 April 2006 Available online 6 April 2006 Abstract The phylogeny of selected members of the phylum Rotifera is examined based on analyses under parsimony direct optimization and Bayesian inference of phylogeny. Species of the higher metazoan lineages Acanthocephala, Micrognathozoa, Cycliophora, and potential outgroups are included to test rotiferan monophyly. The data include 74 morphological characters combined with DNA sequence data from four molecular loci, including the nuclear 18S rRNA, 28S rRNA, histone H3, and the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I. The combined molecular and total evidence analyses support the inclusion of Acanthocephala as a rotiferan ingroup, but do not sup- port the inclusion of Micrognathozoa and Cycliophora. Within Rotifera, the monophyletic Monogononta is sister group to a clade con- sisting of Acanthocephala, Seisonidea, and Bdelloidea—for which we propose the name Hemirotifera. We also formally propose the inclusion of Acanthocephala within Rotifera, but maintaining the name Rotifera for the new expanded phylum. Within Monogononta, Gnesiotrocha and Ploima are also supported by the data. The relationships within Ploima remain unstable to parameter variation or to the method of phylogeny reconstruction and poorly supported, and the analyses showed that monophyly was questionable for the fami- lies Dicranophoridae, Notommatidae, and Brachionidae, and for the genus Proales.

Again we have found many new records. In all 79 species are described in the present paper of which 47 are new records. The present study is based on the examination of over 300 samples from 135localities including large and small tanks, ponds of various sizes, rice fields, streams and marshes. The collections cover the whole area of Sri Lanka and were taken during different seasons of the year mainly from 1968-1972. The sampling localities are given in Fig. 1. In the previous paper (Chengalath and Fernando 1973) the literature on the Sri Lanka species was reviewed. Also the literature on the Eurotatoria of South and South-East Asia was given. Therefore, we have omitted reference to this literature. The methods used in the present study were the same as those referred to in Chengalath and Fernando (1973).

Hierarchical Bayesian models were used to examine correlates and similarities of species richness and abundance within and among sites. Results Ninety-two taxa of arthropods, protozoa and bacteria were identified in the 780 pitcher samples. The variation in the species composition of this multi- trophic level community across the broad geographic range of the host plant was lower than the variation among pitchers within host-plant populations. Variation among food webs in richness and composition was related to climate, pore-water chemistry, pitcher-plant morphology and leaf age.
