No.7. July, 197f.

Prep~red in the Department of Invertebrate Zoology (Echinoder.:~), National l1uselli'1lofNatural History, Smithsonian Institution, ~']ashington,D.C. 20560, U.S.A.

3ere, at last, is No.7. Yet again, we1re sorry for del~ys, which ~ere largely unavoidable •

.At the Second Echinoderms Conference at Rovinj, it was decided that the Newsletter should continue essentially in its present form, but that volunteer regional editors might be able to send us up-to- date information on research activities in their regions, information that we mi~ht not otherwise obtain. The regional editors are listed in t:tis issue. Also included \iliththis issue is a revised directory, ,",ithnames and addresses. There are nON approximately 550 in.1ividuals on~.e mailing list . .~.. We ',.;ishtothank several people who assisted in the prepCiration oft~~is issue. Annette Stonework has typed the stencils for ,,"~very issu..of the Echinoderms Newsl2tter, and prepared roost of thE:present issu;~. Tamara Vance, Cynthia Gust, Michael Carpenter, Linda Griffin and ';l.therineStemler helped to duplicate '¥ld collate the mar:"{ t.~ou'oandsof pages. Without the ':Tillinghelp of.these people ..this News::'ettermight never have seen the light of day.

The Second Echinoderms Conference was held in Ravinj, Yugoslavia, September 26 to Octocer 1,1975. He !lre m:)st grateful t.~ Dr. Dusan ZavDdnik and the "Rudier B-Jscovic" Institute Center f.:)r M~rine Research for arranging this highly successftll conference. The accommodations were excellent, and two interesting field trips were arranged for the participants, one by bus to Limski Kanal, Poree, Beramand Pazin, and about trip on the R/V Vila Velebita to dredge for (what else?) echinoderms. Forty-six papers were-read at the Conferenc~, and the proceedings will be published in Thalassia.

Third Echinoderms Conference

Here are the res'11ts of the voting on the venue for the next Conference.

1. Australia (37 votes) 4. Israel (19) 2. Jamaica (33) 5. Eire (15) 3. England (27) 6. Others (2)

Thus, Australia vrins by a narrml margin. The next Conference will probably be held in Sydney, and will ':-,e organised by Dr. F.H.E. Rowe, The Australian Museum, College St., Sydney, N.S. \-,7., Austl':l.lia. More information will be given in the next Ne.~.:sletter.

Hany correspondents have suggested that the world be divided into regioni (for exa.mple, Pld vlorld, NewWorld and Hestern Pacific area) and that a conference be held in one of these regions every tiVOyears • Thus, for example, a New 'Vlorld resident should expect a conference to be held in his region once. every six years. This seems like a good idea and it might ivork very well. The voting above, although hardly representative of our entire mailing list, would seem to indicate that the vlOrld might logically be divided into three parts. For the sake of arg~~ent, then, we would like to suggest that the 4th conference be held in the New World (Jamaica??) around 1980. HOi'ido you feel about it? .,

Dr. Einar Brun, known for his w~rk )n echin~der~ p~pulations, r,iaS killed in a light-plane crash ar~ J;.:.l=.~2..3, 1976. Einar graduated fron the University :)f Oslo,_ and then took his doctorate at the University of Liverpol. 2is thesis ,;ork dealt with the distribution and ecology of echinoder~s :)f the Isle of Man. His ",'ork was in many .lays a model fJr a pro.ject using SCUBAtechniques to study the benthos, and his underwater prDt,:)graphs 'dere superb. He returned to NOTV/ayin 1969 to ,Iork at the Tromsp Museum and Marine Laboratory, of which be bec~~e Director in 1974. He attended the 1975 Echinoderms Conference in Rovinj, Yugoslavia, where he read a paper on the of the genus Henricia. In addition to his vlork ivith the echin,:)derms, Einar's research interests included biol'::lgy of sea-birds, in .:hich field he was the Norwegian authority, 'and possibilities of salmon farming in theoceaJI. The Bruns lived on Kvalpya, the neighboring island to Troms$Dya. Einar's small Piper Cub, on floats, was a major research tool, enabling him to reach his sea-bird colonies, and it was while flying from Tromsp to Bardu that he encountered the bad weather that caused the tragic accident. Einar was an engaging person, and his ability and charm, his drive and energy, had ensured him a place as a leading biologist in his country. He initiated many exciting prJjects in the north::>f NOTi'laY,a'region rich with tiological problems enlaiting such as he to galvanise research effort. He "rill be greatly !"lissed. - David Nichols.

JON ~lliBER,died June 1, 1976.

Jon N. Heber, \':ellknmm for his \'lork on the echinoderm skeleton: died on .Tll."1C 1, 197h. . Jon received his M.Sc ,and Ph.D. in' geochemistry at the University of Toronto. He then moved t() Pennsylvania State University, vlhere he became Professor of Marine Geology. His recent tragic death represents a loss to echinoderm workers as we11 as to students of other groups. As an isotope geochemist, he had had virtually no biological or .paleontological training, yet he was quick to learn what \';as necessary to work with bi()l()gical materials and problems, and he was very effective in collaboration with 'specialists in fields unfamiliar to him. Through his 'isotope work, he made important contribu- tions to pr()blems of the physiology of the calcification process, not only in echinoderms, but also in corals and Q,ollusks. His isotopic and chem- ical analyses vlere so numerous and carer-lIly done that he •.;as able to apply masses of data to subtle problems '..:hich had previously defied solu- tirm. He was a truly hroad scientist ;Ihs \.;ill be sorely missed by .~orkers ir: several disciplines. - DaviJ M. Raup Suggestions and Requests
