General Remarks on the Biology of Orchestia platensis japonica Orchestia platensis japonica is well known as one of the "sand-hoppers" among the gammaridean group and commonly inhabits at the high-water marks on the beach; often found in a great abundance under damp seaweed or straw-mat washed ashore, sometimes living under dead leaves in the damp places far above the sea-shore. The animal is a scavenger, showing the feeding habit of a "biting" type, and often seen crowding together and biting at the shucked meat of oyster while the animals are kept in an experimental glass-vessel in the laboratory.

  • 1 Amphipoda of the Northeast Pacific
    Amphipoda of the Northeast Pacific (Equator to Aleutians, intertidal to abyss): VII. Caprelloidea – a review Donald B. Cadien, LACSD 22July04 (revised 20Apr15) Preface The purpose of this review is to bring together information on all of the species reported to occur in the NEP fauna. It is not a straight path to the identification of your unknown animal. It is a resource guide to assist you in making the required identification in full knowledge of what the possibilities are. Never forget that there are other, as yet unreported species from the coverage area; some described, some new to science. The natural world is wonderfully diverse, and we have just scratched its surface. Anthropogenic transport is also constantly introducing exotic species into our area, particularly in this superfamily. Introduction to the Caprelloidea Until recent years the caprellids were viewed as a separate suborder of the order Amphipoda, equivalent to the gammarids and the hyperiids. The discovery of the caprogammarids (Kudrjashov & Vassilenko 1966) began to call this into question (McCain 1968, 1970; Laubitz 1976, J. L. Barnard & Karaman 1983), and, following the revisionary work of Myers and Lowry (2003), they are fully nested into the gammaroids based on morphologically based cladistic analysis of their phylogeny. This position was retained in the larger analysis of Lowry & Myers (2013) which established the senticaudates, to which all of the caprellidians belong. Not all workers are willing to accept the revisions of Myers and Lowry, particularly Stella Vassilenko, who feels that it is inappropriate and based on the wrong evidence (Vassilenko 2006). She feels that caprellids should retain their own separate suborder as Caprellidea, and that Cyamida and Caprellida both should retain infraordinal rank.

Podocerus chilensis n. sp. es similar a P. cristatus (Thomson, 1979) de Nueva Zelanda, con diferencias en caracteres de la mandíbula, el urópodo 1 del macho y el gnatópodo 2 en ambos sexos. El Ischyrocerido Jassa slatteryi Conlan, 1990, de amplia distribución mundial y conocido anteriormente de la zona central de Chile, extiende su distribución geográfica en el país hasta la región de Aysén, mientras que el Corophiido estuarino Paracorophium hartmannorum Andres, 1979 se reporta por primera vez como componente bentónico dulceacuícola en el sur de Chile, con base en ejemplares provenientes del Lago Llanquihue y rio Maullín, región de Los Lagos.

  • The Distribution of Benthic Amphipod Crustaceans in Indonesian Seas
    The distribution of benthic amphipod crustaceans in Indonesian seas Tri Arfianti1 and Mark John Costello2,3 1 Research Center for Biology, Indonesian Institute of Sciences, Cibinong, Jawa Barat, Indonesia 2 School of Environment, University of Auckland, Auckland, New Zealand 3 Faculty of Bioscience and Aquaculture, Nord University, Bodø, Norway ABSTRACT Amphipod crustaceans are an essential component of tropical marine biodiversity. However, their distribution and biogeography have not been analysed in one of the world's largest tropical countries nested in the Coral Triangle, Indonesia. We collected and identified amphipod crustaceans from eight sites in Indonesian waters and combined the results with data from 32 additional sites in the literature. We analysed the geographic distribution of 147 benthic amphipod crustaceans using cluster analysis and the `Bioregions Infomaps' neural network method of biogeographic discrimination. We found five groups of benthic amphipod crustaceans which show relationships with sampling methods, depth, and substrata. Neural network biogeographic analysis indicated there was only one biogeographic region that matched with the global amphipod regions and marine biogeographic realms defined for all marine taxa. There was no support for Wallaces or other lines being marine biogeographic boundaries in the region. Species richness was lower than expected considering the region is within the Coral Triangle. We hypothesise that this low richness might be due to the intense fish predation which may have limited
