ABSTRACT Two anomuran decapod crustaceans of the superfamily Galatheoidea that are new to science are described from hydrothermally active areas of the western Pacific Océan. Uroptychus edisonicus n.sp., family Chirostylidae, from a vol- canic crater on Edison Seamount near Lihir Island, Bismarck Archipelago, Papua New Guinea, is the third species of the genus known to occur in hydrothermally active areas, both of the others coming from the North Fiji Basin. The new species is more similar to non-hydrothermal congeners from the Banda Sea and the central North Pacific Océan than to those known KEYWORDS from vent areas. Shinkaia crosnieri n.g. n.sp., family Galatheidae, from active hydrothermal Systems, hydrothermal areas in the Okinawa Trough and Edison Seamount is placed West Pacific Océan, in the monotypic Shinkaiinae n. subfam. having similarities to the Chirostylidae, Uroptychus, Munidopsinae, but with distinctive characters of its own including carapace Galatheidae, shape and ornamentation, very short (or reduced) epipods on the third Shinkaiinae, maxillipeds, features of thoracic sternum, legs, and dense ventral mat of Shinkaia, biogeography. setae.

Hua1,2, Wen X. Li1, Dong Zhang1,2, Hong Zou1, Ming Li1, Ivan Jakovlić3, Shan G. Wu1 and Gui T. Wang1,2* Abstract Background: Isopoda is a highly diverse order of crustaceans with more than 10,300 species, many of which are parasitic. Taxonomy and phylogeny within the order, especially those of the suborder Cymothoida Wägele, 1989, are still debated. Mitochondrial (mt) genomes are a useful tool for phylogenetic studies, but their availability for isopods is very limited. To explore these phylogenetic controversies on the mt genomic level and study the mt genome evolution in Isopoda, we sequenced mt genomes of two parasitic isopods, Tachaea chinensis Thielemann, 1910 and Ichthyoxenos japonensis Richardson, 1913, belonging to the suborder Cymothoida, and conducted comparative and phylogenetic mt genomic analyses across Isopoda. Results: The complete mt genomes of T. chinensis and I. japonensis were 14,616 bp and 15,440 bp in size, respectively, with the A+T content higher than in other isopods (72.7 and 72.8%, respectively). Both genomes code for 13 protein-coding genes, 21 transfer RNA genes (tRNAs), 2 ribosomal RNA genes (rRNAs), and possess a control region (CR). Both are missing a gene from the complete tRNA set: T. chinensis lacks trnS1 and I. japonensis lacks trnI. Both possess unique gene orders among isopods.

    Mitochondrial DNA, 2009; 20(4): 1–12 The complete mitochondrial genome of the subterranean crustacean Metacrangonyx longipes (Amphipoda): A unique gene order and extremely short control region MARIA M. BAUZA` -RIBOT1, DAMIA` JAUME2, CARLOS JUAN1, & JOAN PONS2 1Departament de Biologia, Universitat de les Illes Balears, Palma de Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain, and 2IMEDEA (CSIC-UIB), Instituto Mediterra´neo de Estudios Avanzados, Esporles, Balearic Islands, Spain (Received 12 November 2008; revised 3 March 2009; accepted 13 April 2009) Abstract Metazoan mitochondrial genomes usually consist of the same gene set, but some taxonomic groups show a considerable variety in gene order and nucleotide composition. The mitochondrial genomes of 37 crustaceans are currently known. Within the malacostracan superorder Peracarida, only three partial mitogenome sequences and the complete sequence of Ligia oceanica (Isopoda) are available. Frequent translocation events have changed the mitochondrial gene order in crustaceans, providing an opportunity to study the patterns and mechanisms of mitogenome rearrangement and to determine their impact on phylogenetic reconstructions. Here we report the first complete nucleotide sequence of an amphipod species, Metacrangonyx longipes, belonging to a phylogenetically enigmatic family occurring in continental subterranean waters. The genome has 14,113 bp and contains the usual 13 protein coding genes and two rRNA subunits, but only 21 out of the typical 22 tRNA genes of Metazoa. This is the shortest mitogenome described thus far for a crustacean and also one of the richest in AT (76.03%). The genome compactness results from a very small control region of 76 bp, the occurrence of frequent gene overlap, and the absence of large non-coding fragments.

    Cheng et al. BMC Genomics (2019) 20:388 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12864-019-5753-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Transcriptomic analysis reveals insights into deep-sea adaptations of the dominant species, Shinkaia crosnieri (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura), inhabiting both hydrothermal vents and cold seeps Jiao Cheng1,3, Min Hui1,3 and Zhongli Sha1,2,3,4* Abstract Background: Hydrothermal vents and cold seeps are typical deep-sea chemosynthetically-driven ecosystems that allow high abundance of specialized macro-benthos. To gather knowledge about the genetic basis of adaptation to these extreme environments, species shared between different habitats, especially for the dominant species, are of particular interest. The galatheid squat lobster, Shinkaia crosnieri Baba and Williams, 1998, is one of the few dominant species inhabiting both deep-sea hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. In this study, we performed transcriptome analyses of S. crosnieri collected from the Iheya North hydrothermal vent (HV) and a cold seep in the South China Sea (CS) to provide insights into how this species has evolved to thrive in different deep-sea chemosynthetic ecosystems. Results: We analyzed 5347 orthologs between HV and CS to identify genes under positive selection through the maximum likelihood approach. A total of 82 genes were identified to be positively selected and covered diverse functional categories, potentially indicating their importance for S. crosnieri to cope with environmental heterogeneity between deep-sea vents and seeps. Among 39,806 annotated unigenes, a large number of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified between HV and CS, including 339 and 206 genes significantly up-regulated in HV and CS, respectively.

De Grave Abstract The Munidopsidae, one of three squat lobster families in the Galatheoidea, contains the deepest dwelling squat lobsters, with some occurring at abyssal depths. Munidopsids were formerly divided into two subfamilies: Shinkaiinae, for the unusual hydrothermal vent genus Shinkaia; and Munidopsinae for remaining taxa. Four munidopsid genera are currently recognised (Shinkaia, Leiogalathea, Galacantha and Munidopsis) but the largest genus, Munidopsis, is highly diverse morphologically, with multiple genera or subgenera currently in its synonymy. Phylogenetic studies of galatheoids focussed on high level relationships indicate that Leiogalathea is sister to other munidopsids, but the position of Shinkaia with respect to Munidopsis and Galacantha is unclear, as is the reciprocal monophyly of the latter two genera. Phylogenetic analyses of the Munidopsidae based on mitochondrial 16S and COI sequences, sampling all current genera (including the majority of the formerly recognised subgenera), indicate that the generic and former subfamily classifications do not reflect the phylogeny. Shinkaia and Galacantha clades are nested within Munidopsis rendering the genus paraphyletic and the bi-subfamily classification phylogenetically invalid.
