  • Additions to and Revisions of the Amphipod (Crustacea: Amphipoda) Fauna of South Africa, with a List of Currently Known Species from the Region
    Additions to and revisions of the amphipod (Crustacea: Amphipoda) fauna of South Africa, with a list of currently known species from the region Rebecca Milne Department of Biological Sciences & Marine Research Institute, University of CapeTown, Rondebosch, 7700 South Africa & Charles L. Griffiths* Department of Biological Sciences & Marine Research Institute, University of CapeTown, Rondebosch, 7700 South Africa E-mail: [email protected] (with 13 figures) Received 25 June 2013. Accepted 23 August 2013 Three species of marine Amphipoda, Peramphithoe africana, Varohios serratus and Ceradocus isimangaliso, are described as new to science and an additional 13 species are recorded from South Africa for the first time. Twelve of these new records originate from collecting expeditions to Sodwana Bay in northern KwaZulu-Natal, while one is an introduced species newly recorded from Simon’s Town Harbour. In addition, we collate all additions and revisions to the regional amphipod fauna that have taken place since the last major monographs of each group and produce a comprehensive, updated faunal list for the region. A total of 483 amphipod species are currently recognized from continental South Africa and its Exclusive Economic Zone . Of these, 35 are restricted to freshwater habitats, seven are terrestrial forms, and the remainder either marine or estuarine. The fauna includes 117 members of the suborder Corophiidea, 260 of the suborder Gammaridea, 105 of the suborder Hyperiidea and a single described representative of the suborder Ingolfiellidea.

Abstract The new amphipod species Xystriogidiella juliani from the Great Barrier Reef is described. Characteristics for this species are the 2-articulate accessory flagellum, a short second article of the maxilla 1 palp, the lack of inner rami on the pleopods and a short, emarginate telson. A short description of Xystriogidiella capricornea, a second species occurring in the Great Barrier Reef, is given additionally. Key words: Crustacea, Amphipoda, Bogidiellidae, Great Barrier Reef, Australia, taxonomy, new species, Xystriogidiella capricornea, Xystriogidiella juliani Introduction Most bogidiellid species live in inland ground-waters but a few species occur in marine interstitial habitats. Stock (1984) described the first Bogidiellidae from the Pacific, a new species from the Great Barrier Reef, Bogidiella (Xystriogidiella) capricornea, collected close to Heron Island. Koenemann & Holsinger (1991) raised all bogidiellid subgenera to generic level status. This was followed herein. We collected another new Xystriogidiella species on Lizard Island and described it herein. Materials and methods The descriptions were generated from a DELTA database (Dallwitz 2005). A set of colour plates, a list of standard abbreviations and detailed station data is available in Lowry & Myers (2009). Illustrations were made using the methods described in Coleman (2003, 2006).

  • Two New Amphipod Crustaceans from Anchihaline Caves in Bermuda1)
    Crustaceans 53 (1) 1987, E. J. Brill, Leiden TWO NEW AMPHIPOD CRUSTACEANS FROM ANCHIHALINE CAVES IN BERMUDA1) JAN H. STOCK Institute of Taxonomic Zoology, University of Amsterdam, P.O. Box 20125, 1000 HC Amsterdam. The Netherlands BORIS SKET Institut za biologijo, Univerza, p.p. 141, 61001 Ljubljana, Yugoslavia and THOMAS M. ILIFFE Bermuda Biological Station, Ferry Reach GE 01, Bermuda INTRODUCTION The two Amphipoda described in this paper are both rare in the anchihaline2) caves of the Walsingham area in Bermuda (see Sket s~ Iliffe, 1980). The occurrence of a bogidiellid amphipod was already noted by Sket s~ Iliffe, 1.c. The species in question was not described, but referred to as "Bogidiella martini Stock n. ssp." Recent sampling in Bermudian caves, during and after the International Symposium on Marine Caves (October 1984), has yielded some fresh specimens which form the basis for the following description. B. martini, from St. Martin in the Lesser Antilles, is indeed its closest relative, but the nature of the differenes is such that we prefer now to give the Bermudian material full specific rank. The presence of an ingolfiellid was briefly mentioned by Sket, 1979, and by Sket s~ Iliffe, 1980. Only a single specimen was originally collected and no new material has been found during subsequent sampling. The presence of an ingolfiellid in Bermudian cave waters is interesting enough to justify the des- cription of the species involved, even though it is based on a single female only. The ingolfiellids are an old group with a curious distribution pattern (Stock, 1977): (1) some species are bathyal or abyssal; (2) many species occur in inland groundwaters of old continental masses (Europe, Africa, South America); (3) many species occur in coastal groundwaters and interstitial waters.

Sanchiz (*) RESUMEN Durante el periodo 1978-1994 se han descrito cerca de 2.000 especies animales nue- vas para la ciencia en territorio ibérico-balear. Se presenta como apéndice un listado completo de las especies (1978-1993), ordenadas taxonómicamente, así como de sus referencias bibliográficas. Como tendencias generales en este proceso de inventario de la biodiversidad se aprecia un incremento moderado y sostenido en el número de taxones descritos, junto a una cada vez mayor contribución de los autores españoles. Es cada vez mayor el número de especies publicadas en revistas que aparecen en el Science Citation Index, así como el uso del idioma inglés. La mayoría de los phyla, clases u órdenes mues- tran gran variación en la cantidad de especies descritas cada año, dado el pequeño núme- ro absoluto de publicaciones. Los insectos son claramente el colectivo más estudiado, pero se aprecia una disminución en su importancia relativa, asociada al incremento de estudios en grupos poco conocidos como los nematodos.

Sampling for both stygobitic and troglobitic fauna has taken place on the island since 1991, and Humphreys (2001) summarised the then current state of knowledge of the island’s subterranean fauna. Sampling for impact assessment purposes on the island over the past decade has substantially increased the recorded species richness of Barrow Island. The number of documented stygal taxa has more than doubled since 2001, from 25 to 63 species now known. Troglobitic diversity has also substantially increased, with six species known in 2001 and 19 troglobitic taxa known today.

ZooKeys 790: 63–75. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.790.28671 Abstract A new species of subterranean amphipod, Bogidiella pingxiangensis Hou & Li, sp. n., is described from Xiongshizilong Cave in Pingxiang City, China. The new species is characterized by having the bases of pereopods III and V expanded; the inner ramus of pleopods I–III with one segment; the telson longer than wide and with the apical margin with a shallow U-shaped excavation. DNA barcode of the new spe- cies is documented as support of molecular differences between related species. Keywords Amphipod, barcode, cave, China, new species, taxonomy Introduction The genus Bogidiella Hertzog, 1933 contains more than 60 species that are widely dis- tributed in subterranean freshwaters or marine interstitial habitats (Koenemann and Holsinger 1999, Coleman 2009).
