Abstract Background: Among metazoans, retention of functional diet-derived chloroplasts (kleptoplasty) is known only from the sea slug taxon Sacoglossa (Gastropoda: Opisthobranchia). Intracellular maintenance of plastids in the slug's digestive epithelium has long attracted interest given its implications for understanding the evolution of endosymbiosis. However, photosynthetic ability varies widely among sacoglossans; some species have no plastid retention while others survive for months solely on photosynthesis. We present a molecular phylogenetic hypothesis for the Sacoglossa and a survey of kleptoplasty from representatives of all major clades. We sought to quantify variation in photosynthetic ability among lineages, identify phylogenetic origins of plastid retention, and assess whether kleptoplasty was a key character in the radiation of the Sacoglossa.

The present report forms one of ~ series projected by the director of the biological laboratory of the United States Bureau of Fisheries, the primary object being' to afford such a biological survey of the region as will bring within easy reach of students and working naturalists a synopsis of the character and distribution of its fauna. The work whieh forms the basis of this paper was carried on during the summers of 1£101 and 1902, including also a brief collecting reconnaissance during the early spring of the latter year, thus enabling me to complete a record of observations upon the medusoid fauna during every month of the year, with daily records during most of the time. For parts of these records during late fall and winter I am chiefly indebted to Mr. Vinal N. Fdwurds, which it is a pleasure hereby to acknowledge. It is also a pleasure to acknowledge the cordial cooperation of the Commissioner, Hon. George M. Bowers, and of Dr. H. M. Smith, director of 'the laboratory ill HI01 and 1902.

It uses the ingredients Ancient, Committee and Emotion, and is designed to be run in four two–hour sessions with between three and five participants. There is no Gamesmaster. I am no authority on Ancient Greece and its myths, so please indulge me any inaccuracies that I may have presented here. Background The Ancient Greek World, during the Age of Gods and Men: Zeus, father of all the Gods has decided that he wants a new religious festival for the Mortals to honour him. He has declared that it will be known as the “Olympics” and shall be held in the most worthy city–state in all of the Greek World — anywhere from Iberia to the Black Sea. But there are more city–states than Zeus can be bothered to remember, so to discover which is most worthy, he has chosen a number of his Godly offspring to do it for him. They will be known as the “Mount Olympus Committee”, and will report back in four mortal years, or Zeus shall rip all of Creation asunder.

    Genetic Identification of Octopodidae Species in Southern California Seafood Markets: Species Diversity and Resource Implications

    Genetic Identification of Octopodidae Species in Southern California Seafood Markets: Species Diversity and Resource Implications Chase Martin Center for Marine Biodiversity and Conservation Scripps Institution of Oceanography University of California San Diego Abstract Various species of Octopodidae are commonly found in seafood markets throughout Southern California. Most of the octopus available for purchase is imported, with the majority of imports coming from various Asian nations. Despite the diversity of global octopus species, products are most commonly labeled as simply “octopus,” with some distinctions being made in size, e.g., “baby” or “little octopus.” In efforts to characterize species diversity, this study genetically tested 59 octopus samples from a variety of seafood markets in Los Angeles, Orange, and San Diego Counties. Universal 16S rRNA primers (ref) and CO1 primers developed by Folmer et al. (1994) were used for PCR amplification and sequencing of mtDNA. In all, 105 sequences were acquired. Seven species were identified with some confidence. Amphioctopus aegina was the most prevalent species, while two additional species were undetermined. Little available data exists pertaining to octopus fisheries of the countries of production of the samples. Most available information on octopus fisheries pertains to those of Mediterranean and North African nations, and identifies the Octopus vulgaris as the fished species. Characterizing octopus diversity in Southern California seafood markets and assessing labeling and countries of production provides the necessary first step for assessing the possible management implications of these fisheries and seafood supply chain logistics for this group of cephalopods. Introduction Octopuses are exclusively marine cephalopod mollusks that form the order Octopoda.

Flabellina rubrolineata was believed to have a wide distribution range, being reported from the Mediterranean Sea (non-native), the Red Sea, the Indian Ocean and adjacent seas, and the Indo-West Pacific and from Australia to Hawaii. In the present paper, we provide a redescription of Flabellina rubrolineata, based on specimens collected near the type locality of this species in the Red Sea. The morphology of this species was studied using anatomical dissections and scanning electron microscopy. To place this species in the phylogenetic framework and test the identity of other specimens of F. rubrolineata from the Indo-West Pacific we sequenced COI, H3, 16S and 28S gene fragments and obtained phylogenetic trees based on Bayesian and Maximum likelihood inferences. Our morphological and molecular results show a clear separation of F. rubrolineata from the Red Sea from its relatives in the Indo-West Pacific. We suggest that F. rubrolineata is restricted to only the Red Sea, the Arabian Sea and the Mediterranean Sea and to West Indian Ocean, while specimens from other regions belong to a complex of pseudocryptic species.

    STONEFLY NAMES from CLASSICAL TIMES W. E. Ricker

    ZOBODAT - www.zobodat.at Zoologisch-Botanische Datenbank/Zoological-Botanical Database Digitale Literatur/Digital Literature Zeitschrift/Journal: Perla Jahr/Year: 1996 Band/Volume: 14 Autor(en)/Author(s): Ricker William E. Artikel/Article: Stonefly names from classical times 37-43 STONEFLY NAMES FROM CLASSICAL TIMES W. E. Ricker Recently I amused myself by checking the stonefly names that seem to be based on the names of real or mythological persons or localities of ancient Greece and Rome. I had copies of Bulfinch’s "Age of Fable," Graves; "Greek Myths," and an "Atlas of the Ancient World," all of which have excellent indexes; also Brown’s "Composition of Scientific Words," And I have had assistance from several colleagues. It turned out that among the stonefly names in lilies’ 1966 Katalog there are not very many that appear to be classical, although I may have failed to recognize a few. There were only 25 in all, and to get even that many I had to fudge a bit. Eleven of the names had been proposed by Edward Newman, an English student of neuropteroids who published around 1840. What follows is a list of these names and associated events or legends, giving them an entomological slant whenever possible. Greek names are given in the latinized form used by Graves, for example Lycus rather than Lykos. I have not listed descriptive words like Phasganophora (sword-bearer) unless they are also proper names. Also omitted are geographical names, no matter how ancient, if they are easily recognizable today — for example caucasica or helenica. alexanderi Hanson 1941, Leuctra.

    The Form and Function of the Hypertrophied Tentacle of Deep-Sea Jelly Atolla Spp

    The Form and Function of the Hypertrophied Tentacle of Deep-Sea Jelly Atolla spp. Alexis Walker, University of California Santa Cruz Mentors: Bruce Robison, Rob Sherlock, Kristine Walz, and Henk-Jan Hoving, George Matsumoto Summer 2011 Keywords: Atolla, tentacle, histology, SEM, hypertrophied ABSTRACT In situ observations and species collection via remotely operated vehicle, laboratory observations, and structural microscopy were used with the objective to shed light on the form and subsequently the function of the hypertrophied tentacle exhibited by some Atolla species. Based upon the density of nematocysts, length, movement, and ultrastructure of the hypertrophied tentacle, the function of the tentacle is likely reproductive, sensory, and/or utilized in food acquisition. INTRODUCTION The meso- and bathypelagic habitats are of the largest and least known on the planet. They are extreme environments, characterized by high atmospheric pressure, zero to low light levels, scarcity of food sources, and cold water that is low in oxygen content. Animals that live and even thrive in these habitats exhibit unique characteristics enabling them to survive in such seemingly inhospitable conditions. One such organism, the deep- sea medusa of the genus Atolla, trails a singular elongated tentacle, morphologically 1 distinct from the marginal tentacles. This structure, often referred to as a trailing or hypertrophied tentacle, is unique within the cnidarian phylum. Ernst Haeckel described the first species of this deep pelagic jelly, Atolla wyvillei, during the 1872-1876 HMS Challenger Expedition. In the subsequent 135 years, the genus Atolla has expanded to several species not yet genetically established, which have been observed in all of the worlds oceans (Russell 1970).
