DAY SEATTLE, WA JULY 1973 NOAA TECHNICAL REPORTS National Marine Fisheries Service, Circulars The major responsibilities of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) are to monitor and assess the abundance and geographic distribution of fishery resources, to understand and predict fluctuations in the quan- tity and distribution of these resources, and to establish levels for optimum use of the resources. NMFS is also charged with the development and implementation of policies for managing national fishing grounds, develop- ment and enforcement of domestic fisheries regulations, surveillance of foreign fishing off United States coastal waters, and the development and enforcement of international fishery agreements and policies. NMFS also assists the fishing industry through marketing service and economic analysis programs, and mortgage insurance and vessel construction subsidies. It collects, analyses, and publishes statistics on various phases of the industry. The NOAA Technical Report NMFS CIRC series continues a series that has been in existence since 1941. The Circulars are technical publications of general interest intended to aid conservation and management. Publica- tions that review in considerable detail and at a high technical level certain broad areas of research appear in this series. Technical papers originating in economics studies and from management investigations appear in the Circular series. NOAA Technical Reports NMFS CIRC are available free in limited numbers to governmental agencies, both Federal and State. They are also available in exchange for other scientific and technical publications in the ma- rine sciences.

Original specimens and type localities of early described polychaete species (Annelida) from Norway, with particular attention to species described by O.F. Müller and M. Sars. Memoirs of Museum Victoria 71: 217–236. Early descriptions of species from Norwegian waters are reviewed, with a focus on the basic requirements for re- assessing their characteristics, in particular, by clarifying the status of the original material and locating sampling sites. A large number of polychaete species from the North Atlantic were described in the early period of zoological studies in the 18th and 19th centuries.

The family Polynoidae includes a group of scale worms which is abundant in several marine environments, and many members are associated with other invertebrates. The genus Harmothoe is one of the largest in number of species within the polynoids, with more than 150 described species. We summarize in a checklist information relative to 23 nominal species of Harmothoe from South America, with valid names, synonyms and original citations, discuss possible taxonomic problems, and provide illustrations of specimens from the northeastern coast of Brazil. Redescriptions of two species based on new specimens collected along the littoral of the State of Pernambuco, northeastern Brazil, are included. Harmotthoe fuscapinae and Harmothoe lanceocirrata are reported for the first time for Brazilian waters. Key words: Scale worms, polynoids; South Atlantic, new records.

PETTIBONE I SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 538 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION Emphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Folklife Studies Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world of science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs'submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.

  • A Check-List of Polychaete Species from the Black
    J. Black Sea/Mediterranean Environment Vol. 18, No.1: 10-48 (2012) REVIEW ARTICLE A check-list of polychaete species (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Black Sea Güley Kurt Şahin1*, Melih Ertan Çınar2 1Department of Biology, Faculty of Arts and Sciences, Sinop University, 57000, Sinop, TURKEY 2Department of Hydrobiology, Faculty of Fisheries, Ege University, 35100, Bornova- Izmir, TURKEY *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Polychaetes from the Black Sea were reviewed based on the available literature. Lists of the valid species, re-assigned species and dubious species (nomen dubium or indeterminable species) reported from the region are provided. The checklist comprises 238 valid species belonging to 45 families. Twenty three species belonging to 8 families were considered as nomen dubium or indeterminable. Fifty-one species reported from the Black Sea between 1868 and 2011 have been synonymised with other species. Among the Black Sea countries, the coast of Bulgaria is represented by the highest number of polychaete species (192 species), followed by the coasts of Ukrania (161 species) and Romania (115 species). The highest number of species (119 species) were found on sandy substratum, the lowest number of species (7 species) on sponges. Nine alien polychaete species (Hesionides arenaria, Streptosyllis varians, Glycera capitata, Nephtys ciliata, Polydora cornuta, Prionospio pulchra, Streblospio gynobranchiata, Capitellethus dispar and Ficopomatus enigmaticus) were reported from the Black Sea up to now. The most speciose families in the area were Syllidae (32 species), Spionidae (31 species), Phyllodocidae (16 species) and Nereididae (15 species). By presenting a complete overview of the species reported from the area, this work summarises our current knowledge about the diversity of the Black Sea polychaetes and provides a database for future studies.

In 1989, IPC3 took place in Long Beach, organized by Dr. Donald Reish. In 2015, Don approached us to ask if it might be possible to bring IPC13 back to Long Beach, thirty years later. We agreed to work towards that goal, and in 2016 the attendees of IPC12 in Wales selected Long Beach as the venue for the next meeting. Unfortunately, Don did not live to see his dream become a reality, but his passion for all facets of polychaete biology is represented in this conference through the broad diversity of presentations that are offered. We know that he would be very pleased and honored by your participation in this meeting. The conference would not have been possible without your support and participation. In addition, we would like to express sincere thanks to those organizations that have supported the conference, either financially or by other critical means.

  • Poster ABSTRACT 10Th INTERNATIONAL POLYCHAETE
    Poster ABSTRACT POSTER THEME TAXONOMY Opheliidae (Polychaeta) diversity on the Western Australian coast Lynda Avery1 and Robin S. Wilson2 UniversityLECCE, ITALY fromof JUNE 20thSalento, to 26th,10th INTERNATIONAL POLYCHAETE CONFERENCE 2010 - e-mail: DiSTeBA, Lecce - Stazione Zoologica “Anton Dohrn” of Naples 1Reasearch Associate, Science Department, Museum Victoria, GPO Box 666, Melbourne, Victoria 3001, Australia; 2 Science Department, Museum Victoria, GPO Box 666, Melbourne, Victoria 3001, Australia. Since 2005 a number of exploratory cruises have taken place off the coast of Western Australia with the objective of better understanding patterns of marine biodiversity. Depths sampled were in the range 100-1000 m and investigations of non-polychaete taxa have revealed large numbers of species previously unknown in Australia, many of which are undescribed. Sampling from a coral reef biodiversity program CReefs has contributed shallow water material from some of the same latitudes. This poster presentation is a summary of Opheliidae diversity and taxonomy from the region. Taxa represented include species of Armandia, Ophelina, Polyophthalmus and Travisia. Each will be described and the significance of the fauna discussed in terms of the objectives of the projects. Deep sea Syllidae from Southern Brazil Rômulo Barroso1, Marcelo Fukuda2, João Nogueira2, Paulo Paiva1 1 Departamento de Zoologia, Instituto de Biologia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Rio [email protected] de Janeiro, RJ, Brazil. 2 Departamento de Zoologia, Instituto de Biociências, Universidade de São Paulo, São Paulo, SP, Brazil. The deep sea invertebrate fauna of Southern Atlantic Ocean is poorly known, compared to Northern Atlantic and Antarctic waters. As a consequence of this differential sampling effort, the biota composition and the biogeographical patterns of this region are mostly unknown.
