It is not a comprehensive identification key, but a quick, condensed guide to the developmental stages of these copepods. Included are illustrations, size ranges, and general in­ formation about the distinguishing characteristics, geographical distri­ bution, ecology, feeding habits, and life history of these species. For more detailed information the literature cited in each section should be consulted. Oceanic species are those that occur mainly beyond the continental shelf" in the slope water, the Gulf Stream, or the open ocean. Neritic species occur mainly over the cont~nental shelf though their distribu­ tion may extend into the slope water and beyond. Littoral species occur in sheltered water where the salinity is 20-300/00. Estuarine species prefer water where the daily or weekly salinity change is greater than in strictly littoral areas. A species will g~nerally appear during summer and fall at the northern limits of its geographical range, and it will appear during winter and spring at the southern limits of its range. Where optimum conditions exist year-round, a species will be present throughout the year. PLATE I Anato~1 of a calanoid copepod.

The political changes which occurred in the former Soviet Union in the last part of the 1980s resulted in the opening of this area to foreigners. Director Gennady Matishov of Murmansk Marine Biological Institute deserves much of the credit for this. In 1990 an international cooperation was established between the Murmansk Marine Biological Institute (MMBI); the Arctic Ecology Group of the Institute of Oceanology, Gdansk; and the Norwegian Polar Research Institute, Oslo. The purpose of this cooperation is to develope scientific cooperation in the Arctic thorugh joint expeditions, the establishment of a high Arctic scientific station, and the exchange of scientific information. So far the results of this cooperation are two scientific cruises with the RV "Pomor", a vessel belonging to the MMBI. The cruises have been named Sov­ Nor-Poll and Sov-Nor-Po12. A third cruise is planned for August-September 1992. In addition the MMBI has undertaken to establish a scientific station at Tikhaia Bay on Hooker Island. This is the site of a former Soviet meteorological base from 1929-1958, and some of the buildings are now being restored by MMBI.

  • Contribution of Herbivory to the Diet of Temora Longicornis (Müller) In
    Contribution of herbivory to Temora longicornis diet Contribution of herbivory to the diet of Temora longicornis (Müller) in Belgian coastal waters Elvire Antajan1*, Stéphane Gasparini2, Marie-Hermande Daro1, Michèle Tackx3 1 Laboratorium voor ecologie en systematiek, Vrij Universiteit Brussel, Pleinlaan 2, B-1050 Brussel, Belgium. 2 Laboratoire d’Océanographie de Villefranche, BP28, F-06234 Villefranche sur mer, France. 3 Laboratoire d'Ecologie des Hydrosystèmes (LEH), 29 rue Jeanne Marvig F-31055 Toulouse, France. Abstract The contribution of herbivory to the diet of Temora longicornis (Müller), an omnivorous calanoid copepod, and the degree of food limitation to its production were investigated in relation to microplankton availability during 2001 in Belgian coastal waters. The gut fluorescence method was combined with egg production measurements to estimate herbivorous and total feeding, respectively. Diatoms were the main phytoplankton component during the sampling period and constituted, with the colonial haptophyte Phaeocystis globosa, the bulk of phytoplankton biomass during the spring bloom. HPLC gut pigment analysis showed that diatoms were the main phytoplankton group ingested, whereas no evidence for ingestion of P. globosa and nanoflagellates was found. Further, our results showed higher phytoplankton ingestion by T. longicornis in spring, when small, chain-forming diatom species such as Thalassiosira spp. and Chaetoceros spp. were abundant, than in summer, when larger species such as Guinardia spp. and Rhizosolenia spp. dominated the diatom community. We showed that T. longicornis could be regarded as mainly herbivorous during fall and winter, while during spring and summer they needed heterotrophic food to meet their energetic demands for egg production. The phytoplankton spring bloom, either during diatom dominance or during P.

The aim of this study was to assess the spatial variations in the copepod community abundance, and the biomass and production patterns of the three most abundant calanoid species in the SPSPA. Plankton samples were collected with a 300 µm mesh size net along four transects (north, east, south and west of the SPSPA), with four stations plotted in each transect. All transects exhibited a tendency toward a decrease in copepod density with increasing distance from the SPSPA, statistically proved in the North. Density varied from 3.33 to 182.18 ind.m-3, and differences were also found between the first perimeter (first circular distance band) and the others. The total biomass varied from 15.25 to 524.50 10-3 mg C m-3 and production from 1.19 to 22.04 10-3 mg C m-3d-1.

The Vtg gene, mRNA and protein regulation involve several environmental factors and physiological processes, including gonadal maturation and moult stages, among others. Once the Vtg gene, mRNAs and protein are obtained, it is possible to establish the relationship between the elements that participate in their regulation, which could either be species-specific, or tissue-specific. This work is a systematic analysis that compares the similarities and differences of Vtg genes, mRNA and Vtg between the crustacean species reported in databases with respect to that obtained from the transcriptome of Callinectes arcuatus, C. toxotes, Penaeus stylirostris and P. vannamei obtained with MiSeq sequencing technology from Illumina. Those analyses confirm that the Vtg obtained from selected species will serve to understand the process of vitellogenesis in crustaceans that is important for fisheries and aquaculture. RESUMEN La vitelogénesis de los crustáceos es un proceso que involucra la vitelina, producida a través de la endoproteólisis de su precursor llamado Vitelogenina (Vtg).
