Cirripeds Found in the Vicinity ef the Seto Mavine Biological Laboxatory By Fajio HIRo (Seto Marine Biological Laboratory, Wakayarna-ken) With 43 Text-pt•gKres (Received April 21, l937) Introductien The purpose of the present paper is to describe the theracic cirripeds found in the waters around the Sete Marine Biological Laboratory. The material dealt with in this paper was collected almost entirely by myself during the period extending from the summer of 1930 up to the present time, except a few species ob- tained from the S6y6-maru Expedition undertaken by the Ircperial Fisheries Experimental Station during the years 1926-1930. Descrip- tions of the latter have already been given (HiRo, 1933a). The present material consists, with few exceptions, of specimens from the littoral zone and shallow ;vvater ; noRe of the specimens are irom deep water. However, I have paid special attention to the commensal forms from the ecological and fauRistic standpoint, and have thes been able to enumerate a comparatively large number of species in such a re- stricted area as this district. The Rew and rare species of the collection have occasionally been described either fully or in part (HiRo, 1931, 1933b, 1934, 1935, 1936b, c, d).

HIRo The above list, if statistically explained, will amount to 9 families, 25 genera, 56 species, 11 subspecies and 3 varieties.D The fact that the fauRa of this district exhibits much tropical feature is readily noticed by anybody who takes a glance at the littoral material around this Laboratory, and depends largely on the direct infiuence of the warmer oceanic current, i. e. the Kuroshio, so that it is very natural that comparatively many tropical cirripeds are found in this district. The most pertinent example is shown in the occurrence of fbla Cumingi, which I have previously discussed (HiRo, 1936c). Of these 7e kinds including species, subspecies and varleties, the following 16 seem to be restricted to the coastal waters of Japan : EecscalPellum sqztamosum, OxynasPis Pacifica, MatacolePas conchicola, Octolasmis clavula, O. Aymonini, Chthamalus Pilsbryi, Pachylasma jaPonicum, Balanus tintinnabzalum volcano, B. tintinnabulum rosa, B. amPhitrite albicostatus, B. gra•nulatus, Acasta fiexuosa, A. cancel- lorum, Tetraclita PttrPttrascens niPPonensis, T. Da•rwini and T. sqttamosa jaPowica. These endemic species (or subspecies) seem to have their origin in tropical waters, most of them being found in the southern part of Japan only. Of theSe, the sessile group, mostly belonging to true shore forms, are much richer thafi the pedunculate group. This fact is apparently dependant on peculiarities in their Iarval Iife. The following 34 species and subspecies are distributed far south to the Indomalayan region, a few of them extending farther south to Soueh Africa: Mitetla mitella, Calantica scoptpio, ScalPellscm j'aPo- nicum, fola Cumingi, Co•nchoderma virgaimm Hzznteri, ifeteraZepas <HeteralePas> jaPonica, H. (lf.) qttadrata, Triiasmis <PoeciZasma> obliqua, T. (TemnasPis) excavatum, T. (T.) amygdalum, ectelasmis Niersttraszi, O. orthogonia, O. Weberi pennatzalae, O.

Pectinipes, Creusia spinutosa with three varieties, species of PNvgoma except P. anglic"m, and Tetraclita squamosa viridis. Most of these species extend farther north to Sagami Bay. The remaining species in this list are more widely distributed and may be even said to be cosmopolitan. No boreal forms are ever found in this district. It is a rather striking fact that no cirriped inhabiting the waters surrounding Japan, except certain boreal and cosmopolitan forms, is common to the species lmown from the west 1) Besides these species in this list, recently I have collected in this district two species beionging to the Trilasrr}atidae, Triiasmis ebumea HiNDs and Octolasmis War- tvicki.GRnv both of which are new to Japan.

These exceptional reports seem incredible from the geogra- phical viewpoint. However, the littoral fauna of the Hawaiian Islands is somewhat related to that of the oriental region, and moreover it is more related to that of the Malayan waters than to that of Japan. For example, Balanus amPhitrite hawaiiensis, which is, according to PiLsBRy (1928), "very abundant between tides" in the Hawaiian coast, is quite common in some inland seas or gulfs in the southern part of Japan. It is also found in the Philippine waters. Trilasmis eburnea HiNDs, Chthamal"s Hembeli (CoNRAD) and Chthamalus in- tertextus DARwiN are found in both Hawaiian and Malayan waters, but there is no reliable i'ecord from Japan.') This is probably due to the fact that the shallow water species of Balawws are frequently transferred by ships from port te port, but in the case of Chtkavaalus there are hardly any possibilities of transmission to wider areas by the agencies of ships' bottoms. It may be recognized also by the fact that a number of species of Chthamaltts are rather restricted to srcaller areas than in the case of Balamas, either geographically or bathymetrically. Evidently the raode of larval life and oceanic currents are to be regarded as the most important factors determining the area of habitat. In the preseRt paper I shall give

    --- Not for reuse or distribution --- 8 HERMAPHRODITISM AND GONOCHORISM Chiara Benvenuto and Stephen C. Weeks Abstract This chapter compares two sexual systems: hermaphroditism (each individual can produce gametes of either sex) and gonochorism (each individual produces gametes of only one of the two distinct sexes) in crustaceans. These two main sexual systems contain a variety of alternative modes of reproduction, which are of great interest from applied and theoretical perspectives. The chapter focuses on the description, prevalence, analysis, and interpretation of these sexual systems, centering on their evolutionary transitions. The ecological correlates of each reproduc- tive system are also explored. In particular, the prevalence of “unusual” (non- gonochoristic) re- productive strategies has been identified under low population densities and in unpredictable/ unstable environments, often linked to specific habitats or lifestyles (such as parasitism) and in colonizing species. Finally, population- level consequences of some sexual systems are consid- ered, especially in terms of sex ratios. The chapter aims to provide a broad and extensive overview of the evolution, adaptation, ecological constraints, and implications of the various reproductive modes in this extraordinarily successful group of organisms. INTRODUCTION 1 Historical Overview of the Study of Crustacean Reproduction Crustaceans are a very large and extraordinarily diverse group of mainly aquatic organisms, which play important roles in many ecosystems and are economically important. Thus, it is not surprising that numerous studies focus on their reproductive biology. However, these reviews mainly target specific groups such as decapods (Sagi et al. 1997, Chiba 2007, Mente 2008, Asakura 2009), caridean Reproductive Biology. Edited by Rickey D.

This includes a log, encrusted on the lower surface with hundreds of perfectly preserved, articulated specimens of Etcheslepas durotrigensis Gale, 2014, and fewer specimens of Concinnalepas costata (Withers, 1928). Some individuals are preserved in life position, hanging from the underside of the wood, and the material provides new morphological information on both species. It appears that Martillepas ovalis (Withers, 1928), which occurs at the same level (Freshwater Steps Stone Band, pectinatus Zone) attached preferentially to ammonites, whereas E. durotrigensis and C. costata used wood as a substrate for their epiplanktonic lifestyle. Two regurgitates containing abundant barnacle valves, mostly broken, and some bivalve fragments, have been found in the Kimmeridge Clay. These were produced by a fish grazing on epiplanktonic species, and are only the second example of regurgitates containing barnacle valves known from the fossil record. The evolution of modern barnacle groups is discussed in the light of the new Jurassic material as well as recently published molecular phylogenies. New clades defined herein are called the Phosphatothoracica, the Calamida and the Unilatera. Keywords Epiplanktonic barnacles Kimmeridge Clay predation 1.

  • Phylogeography and Molecular Systematics of the Rafting Aeolid Nudibranch Fiona Pinnata (Eschscholtz, 1831)
    Phylogeography and molecular systematics of the rafting aeolid nudibranch Fiona pinnata (Eschscholtz, 1831) Jennifer S. Trickey A thesis submitted for the degree of Master of Science in Zoology at the University of Otago, New Zealand August 2012 An undescribed species of Fiona nudibranch (at center) on the mooring line of a rompong in SE Sulawesi, Indonesia. Also pictured are its egg masses and barnacle prey. © Magnus Johnson [University of Hull] i ABSTRACT The pelagic nudibranch Fiona pinnata (Mollusca: Gastropoda) occurs exclusively on macroalgal rafts and other floating substrata, and is found throughout tropical and temperate seas worldwide. Its cosmopolitan distribution has been attributed to its planktotrophic larval mode and propensity for passive rafting, and although it was one of the earliest aeolid nudibranchs to be described, this study produced the first molecular phylogeny for this ubiquitous invertebrate. Mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequence data was generated from specimens collected worldwide in order to elucidate the genetic structure and diversity within this obligate rafter. Phylogeographic analyses revealed three distinct lineages that were geographically partitioned in concordance with oceanic circulation patterns. Two clades were abundant and widespread, with one displaying a circum-equatorial distribution and the other exhibiting an anti-tropical distribution throughout temperate zones of the Pacific Ocean. A third lineage based on a single Indonesian specimen was also detected, and the genetic divergences and largely allopatric distributions observed among these three clades suggest that they may represent a cryptic species complex. Long-distance dispersal in this nudibranch appears to be current-mediated, and the North-South disjunction detected within New Zealand is concordant with known marine biogeographic breaks.

  • (Cirripedia: Heteralepadidae) Symbiotic with <I>Xenophora</I>
    BULLETIN OF MARINE SCIENCE. 64(3): 391-398. 1999 A NEW SPECIES OF PARALEPAS (CIRRIPEDIA: HETERALEPADIDAE) SYMBIOTIC WITH XENOPHORA (MOLLUSCA: GASTROPODA); WITH THE FIRST COMPLEMENTAL MALEKNOWNFORTHEFAM~Y Gregory A. Kolbasov and Galena B. Zevina ABSTRACT A new species of Paralepas from near Madagascar is described and its affinities are in- dicated. A generalized complemental male and a male cyprid larva were found attached below the aperture in two specimens. This is the first male reported for this group of barnacles, and its morphological characters are investigated. Twenty-two species of the genus Paralepas Pilsbry were reported in the last review of this genus (Zevina, 1982), and four have since been described. These latter are: P. robusta Rossel, 1981, from the Philippines; P. seama Foster, 1981, from New Zealand; P. ichtiandri Zevina, 1983, from Nasca Ridge (off the coast of Peru, 200S, 800W), and P. martini Young, 1990, off the coast of Brazil. The new species described here is from the Indian Ocean. Species of Paralepas are restricted to the tropical and subtropical waters of the World Ocean, mostly between the subtidal and upper bathyal zones. These bar- nacles are often found in association with other organisms, such as mollusks, echinoids, and large crustaceans. No previous works have mentioned comple- mental males in Paralepas. In the course of a survey of the collections at the Institution of Oceanology, Russian Academy of Sciences, three specimens of Paralepas new species, pre- served in alcohol, were found. They were attached near the orifice of a gastropod belonging to the genus Xenophora. One adult specimen bears a complemental male, attached externally to the lower part of the orifice (Fig.

The Megabalanus of Madeira is M. az- oricus. There are 20 genera containing 27 species, of which 22 occur in depths less than 200 m. Of these Methods shallow water species, eight are wide-ranging oceanic forms that attach to other organisms or to floating The records are based on (1) the work of R.T.

  • Planktonic Associations Between Medusae (Classes Scyphozoa and Hydrozoa) and Epifaunal Crustaceans
    Planktonic associations between medusae (classes Scyphozoa and Hydrozoa) and epifaunal crustaceans Kaden Muffett and Maria Pia Miglietta Department of Marine Biology, Texas A&M University - Galveston, Galveston, Texas, United States ABSTRACT Jellyfish are known to carry various epibionts, including many of the subphylum Crustacea. However, the associations between gelatinous zooplankton and other invertebrates have been chronically overlooked. Crustacea, a massive clade of economically, ecologically, and culturally important species, includes many taxa that utilize gelatinous zooplankton for food, transport, and protection as both adults and juveniles. Here we compile 211 instances of epifaunal crustaceans recorded on Hydromedusae and Scyphomedusae from a century of literature. These include 78 identified crustacean species in 65 genera across nine orders found upon 37 Hydromedusa species and 48 Scyphomedusae. The crustacean life stage, location, nature of the association with the medusa, years, months, and depths are compiled to form a comprehensive view of the current state of the literature. Additionally, this review highlights areas where the current literature is lacking, particularly noting our poor understanding of the relationships between juvenile crabs of commercially valuable species and medusae.
