The Deep Sea Elements of the Faroe Bank Tardigrade Fauna with a Description of Two New Species
G. Pilato and L. Rebecchi (Guest Editors) Proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on Tardigrada J. Limnol., 66(Suppl. 1): 12-20, 2007 The deep sea elements of the Faroe Bank tardigrade fauna with a description of two new species Jesper GULDBERG HANSEN Department of Invertebrate Zoology, Zoological Museum, University of Copenhagen, Universitetsparken 15, DK-2100 Copenhagen, Denmark e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT Two new marine Tardigrada species are described from the calcareous sediments at the steep slope of the Faroe Bank in the North Atlantic Ocean. Parmursa torquata sp. nov. can be distinguished mainly by small cylindrical secondary clavae, and the presence of caudal and cephalic vesicles, and a large ventral plate. Coronarctus verrucatus sp. nov. is characterised by its unique cuticular sculpture, with numerous small wart-like excrescences, regularly distributed all over the body. These new records from the relatively shallow water of the Faroe Bank (200-260 m) further widen the range of Parmursa and Coronarctus distribution and diversity, especially regarding the genus Parmursa, which to date has remained monospecific. Key words: Tardigrada, Arthrotardigrada, Faroe Bank, Parmursa torquata sp. nov, Coronarctus verrucatus sp. nov. ethanol and acetone prior to critical point drying. The 1.

A Checklist of Norwegian Tardigrada
Fauna norvegica 2017 Vol. 37: 25-42. A checklist of Norwegian Tardigrada Terje Meier1 Meier T. 2017. A checklist of Norwegian Tardigrada. Fauna norvegica 37: 25-42. Animals of the phylum Tardigrada are microscopical metazoans that seldom exceed 1 mm in length. They are recorded from terrestrial, limnic and marine habitats and they have a distribution from Arctic to Antarctica. Tardigrades are also named ‘water bears’ referring to their ‘walk’ that resembles a bear’s gait. Knowledge of Norwegian tardigrades is fragmented and distributed across numerous sources. Here this information is gathered and validity of some records is discussed. In total 146 different species are recorded from the Norwegian mainland and Svalbard. Among these, 121 species and subspecies are recorded in previous publications and another 25 species are recorded from Norway for the first time. doi: 10.5324/fn.v37i0.2269. Received: 2017-05-22.

Schmidt-Rhaesa ♦ Received 24 October 2020 ♦ Accepted 7 December 2020 ♦ Published 9 April 2021 Abstract Many regions of the world remain unexplored in terms of the tardigrade diversity, and the islands of the Indian Ocean are no excep- tion. In this work, we report four species of the family Echiniscidae representing three genera from Mauritius, the second largest is- land in the Mascarene Archipelago. Two species belong in the genus Echiniscus: Echiniscus perarmatus Murray, 1907, a pantropical species, and one new species: Echiniscus insularis sp. nov., one of the smallest members of the spinulosus group and the entire genus, being particularly interesting due to the presence of males and supernumerary teeth-like spicules along the margins of the dorsal plates. The new species most closely resembles Echiniscus tropicalis Binda & Pilato, 1995, for which we present extensive mul- tipopulation data and greatly extend its distribution eastwards towards islands of Southeast Asia. Pseudechiniscus (Meridioniscus) mascarenensis sp. nov. is a typical member of the subgenus with elongated (dactyloid) cephalic papillae and the pseudosegmental plate IV’ with reduced posterior projections in males. Finally, a Bryodelphax specimen is also recorded.
