  • Polychaetes Associated with a Tropical Ocean Outfall: Synthesis of a Biomonitoring Program Off O'ahu, Hawai'f
    Polychaetes Associated with a Tropical Ocean Outfall: Synthesis ofa Biomonitoring Program off O'ahu, Hawai'F J. H. Bailey-Brock,2,3,4,5 B. Paavo,3,4 B. M. Barrett,3,4 and J. Dreyer3,4 Abstract: A comparison of benthic polychaete communities off the Sand Island Wastewater Outfall was undertaken to recognize organic enrichment indicator species for Hawaiian waters. Primary-treatment sewage is discharged off the south shore of O'ahu at 70 m depth. A historical data set spanning 9 yr for seven sites at 70 m and two recent studies at 20, 50, and 100 m depths were analyzed. Geochemical data did not support the assumption that the outfall is an im­ portant source of organic enrichment in nutrient-poor sandy sediments within oligotrophic tropical waters. Five polychaete species, however, appeared partic­ ularly sensitive, positively or negatively, to environmental conditions near the outfall. Neanthes arenaceodentata (Nereididae) and Ophryotrocha adherens (Dor­ villeidae) have been dominant at sites within the outfall's zone of initial dilution (ZID). Since 1993, N arenaceodentata has virtually disappeared, and 0. adherens concurrently became abundant and continued to flourish at ZID sites. Well­ known indicators within the Capitella capitata complex (Capitellidae) were pres­ ent at ZID and control (far field) sites though their ZID abundance was greater. Two sabellids, Euchone sp. Band Augeneriella dubia were inversely distributed, the smaller Euchone sp. B at far field sites and larger A. dubia within ZID sta­ tions. The former was most likely restricted to a greater proportion offine sed­ iment particles at two far field sites.

  • Ecotoxicology of Estuarine Amphipod Paracorophium Excavatum
    E icolo fEstua ·ne Amphipod Paracorophium excavatum A thesis Submitted in partial fulfilment the requirements for Degree of Master of Science in Environmental Science at The University of Canterbury by Carol Wong Hee Ting University of Canterbury 1999 ABSTRACT The estuarine tube dwelling amphipod Paracorophium excavatum was investigated for its suitability as a bio-indicator and bio-monitor. Distribution patterns of P. excavatum were determined at 13 sites in the Canterbury region that differed in particle size distribution ranging from sandy to muddy sediment, with overall10w organic content. Low tide salinity ranged from 5 to 33 0/00 between sites and sediment moisture content ranged between 23 to 41 % moisture. Amphipods were absent from most sites within the Avon-Heathcote Estuary. The availability, life history and fecundity of P. excavatum were compared from intertidal mudflat sites in Brooklands Lagoon and Kairaki over a period of thirteen months. Four sediment core samples were collected at monthly intervals and P. excavatum IS population structure and life history pattern studied. The life history til· <: of P. excavatum can be characterised bY fast-growing, annual, iteroporous, bivoltine, females ovigerous throughout the year and thelygenous (female biased) population. P. excavatum showed relative consistency in abundance throughout the year with monthly densities ranging from 875.79 per 0.1 m-2 (July) to 1754.77 per 0.1 m-2 (December) at Brooklands Lagoon and 1031.83 per 0.1 m2 (November) to 1780.24 per 0.1 m2 (December) at Kairaki. There was a linear relationship between numbers of eggs per female and female length.

Summary: Sabellaria alcocki Gravier, 1906, described for the Indian Ocean, should not be present in the Mediterranean area. Though S. spinulosa alcocki, a Mediterranean variety, can be well-distinguished from S. alcocki, it has recently been referred to as S. alcocki. Thus, S. alcocki appears in the Italian coast checklist. The recent finding of S. spinulosa reefs along the southern Adriatic coast, the first report of these biogenic constructions in the Mediterranean area, allowed us to compare its morphological variability with that of S. alcocki. A morphometric analysis of the opercular paleae showed a great deal of intrapopulation, size-independent variation, which cannot justify the existence of varieties within S. spinulosa. Moreover, the analysis of post-settlement development showed that opercular features change during individual growth. Recently set- tled individuals resemble S. alcocki, while the more advanced life stages become closer to S. spinulosa. Accordingly, we hypothesize that part of the erroneous Mediterranean records of S.

L. squamatus is a long-living, slow growing broadcast spawner, while H. imbricata is a short-living and quick growing species, with complex reproductive behaviour. These different life strategies may allow them to respond in a different way to the environmental limitations of the study site, this likely being the most appropriate explanation to the observed alternation in dominance.

  • The Namanereidinae (Polychaeta: Nereididae). Part 1, Taxonomy and Phylogeny
    © Copyright Australian Museum, 1999 Records of the Australian Museum, Supplement 25 (1999). ISBN 0-7313-8856-9 The Namanereidinae (Polychaeta: Nereididae). Part 1, Taxonomy and Phylogeny CHRISTOPHER J. GLASBY National Institute for Water & Atmospheric Research, PO Box 14-901, Kilbirnie, Wellington, New Zealand [email protected] ABSTRACT. A cladistic analysis and taxonomic revision of the Namanereidinae (Nereididae: Polychaeta) is presented. The cladistic analysis utilising 39 morphological characters (76 apomorphic states) yielded 10,000 minimal-length trees and a highly unresolved Strict Consensus tree. However, monophyly of the Namanereidinae is supported and two clades are identified: Namalycastis containing 18 species and Namanereis containing 15 species. The monospecific genus Lycastoides, represented by L. alticola Johnson, is too poorly known to be included in the analysis. Classification of the subfamily is modified to reflect the phylogeny. Thus, Namalycastis includes large-bodied species having four pairs of tentacular cirri; autapomorphies include the presence of short, subconical antennae and enlarged, flattened and leaf-like posterior cirrophores. Namanereis includes smaller-bodied species having three or four pairs of tentacular cirri; autapomorphies include the absence of dorsal cirrophores, absence of notosetae and a tripartite pygidium. Cryptonereis Gibbs, Lycastella Feuerborn, Lycastilla Solís-Weiss & Espinasa and Lycastopsis Augener become junior synonyms of Namanereis. Thirty-six species are described, including seven new species of Namalycastis (N. arista n.sp., N. borealis n.sp., N. elobeyensis n.sp., N. intermedia n.sp., N. macroplatis n.sp., N. multiseta n.sp., N. nicoleae n.sp.), four new species of Namanereis (N. minuta n.sp., N. serratis n.sp., N. stocki n.sp., N.

DNA-BARCODING TO SOLVE THE TRICKY CASE OF CO-OCCURRING SABELLARIA (ANNELIDA) SPECIES IN THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA DNA-BARCODING PER LA CORRETTA IDENTIFICAZIONE DELLE SPECIE DEL GENERE SABELLARIA (ANNELIDA) IN MEDITERRANEO Abstract - Intraspecific morphological variation of key taxonomic features is probably responsible for frequent misidentification of Sabellaria (Lamarck, 1818) species. This is the case of Sabellaria alcocki Gravier, 1906 whose Mediterranean records probably refer to juveniles of S. spinulosa (Leuckart, 1849). We hereby provide molecular tools (DNA barcoding) to improve correct delimitation of the Mediterranean species of this genus. Key-words: Polychaeta, Sabellaria alveolata, Sabellaria spinulosa, Sabellaria alcocki, COI. Introduction - Sabellaria (Lamarck, 1818) species are gregarious tube-builder polychaetes which produce complex reefs representing valuable and diverse habitats in coastal areas (La Porta and Nicoletti, 2009). Today three Sabellaria species are recorded for the Mediterranean Sea: S. alveolata (L., 1767), S. spinulosa (Leuckart, 1849) and S. alcocki Gravier, 1906 (Castelli et al., 2008). This last is a valid species but according to several authors it is exclusive of the Indian Ocean and its Mediterranean records should be carefully revised (Lezzi et al., 2015). The operculum is of paramount taxonomic importance for Sabellaria species identification, but its intraspecific variation, especially during development, may lead to confusion. This is the case of S.

  • Polychaeta Lana Crumrine
    Polychaeta Lana Crumrine Well over 200 species of the class Polychaeta are found in waters off the shores of the Pacific Northwest. Larval descriptions are not available for the majority of these species, though descriptions are available of the larvae for at least some species from most families. This chapter provides a dichotomous key to the polychaete larvae to the family level for those families with known or suspected pelagic larva. Descriptions have be $in gleaned from the literature from sites worldwide, and the keys are based on the assumption that developmental patterns are similar in different geographical locations. This is a large assumption; there are cases in which development varies with geography (e.g., Levin, 1984). Identifying polychaetes at the trochophore stage can be difficult, and culturing larvae to advanced stages is advised by several experts in the field (Bhaud and Cazaux, 1987; Plate and Husemann, 1994). Reproduction, Development, and Morphology Within the polychaetes, the patterns of reproduction and larval development are quite variable. Sexes are separate in most species, though hermaphroditism is not uncommon. Some groups undergo a process called epitoky at sexual maturation; benthic adults develop swimming structures, internal organs degenerate, and mating occurs between adults swimming in the water column. Descriptions of reproductive pattern, gamete formation, and spawning can be found in Strathmann (1987). Larval polychaetes generally develop through three stages: the trochophore, metatrochophore, and nectochaete stages. Trochophores are ciliated larvae (see Fig. 1).A band of cilia, the prototroch, is used for locomotion and sometimes feeding. Trochophore larvae are generally broad anteriorly and taper posteriorly.
