From Hawai'i1
Three New Species of Saccocirrus (Polychaeta: Saccocirridae) from Hawai'i 1 J. H. Bailey-B1'ock,2,3 J. Dreyer,2 and R. E. Brock 4 Abstract: Three new species of saccocirrids from interstitial sand habitats off O'ahu, Hawai'i, are described. Two are from subtidal depths, 9-33 m, and the third is from the intertidal to 3.5 m deep on a fringing reef and at Hanauma Bay, the Marine Life Conservation District and public park. The two deeper-water species, Saccocirrus oahuensis, n. sp. and S. waianaensis, n. sp., have 76-119 and 157-210 segments, respectively; they also have bilateral gonads but lack a pha ryngeal pad. The third, S. alanhongi, n. sp., has 35-47 segments, unilateral gonads, and a muscular pharyngeal pad. These species are distinguished from 18 known Saccocirms spp. by their unique chaetation, number of segments, pres ence or absence of ventral cilia, and pygidial adhesive structures. Saccocirms oahuensis consumes foraminiferans, and S. alanhongi contained diatoms, unicel lular algae, and ostracods. These species add to the interstitial fauna of O'ahu and cooccur with polychaetes Nerilla antennata (Nerillidae) and protodrilids (Protodrilidae), and Kinorhyncha. Saccocirms alanhongi withstands almost daily disturbance by 600-1200 bathers per day entering the sandy swimming holes in the reef at Hanauma Bay. SACCOCIRRIDS WERE FIRST recorded from Fauna ofHawai'i (Bailey-Brock 1987). Sacco Hawai'i in 1979, when they were found in cirridae were classified as "Archiannelida," sand on a shallow fringing reef near Pearl which included Protodrilidae, Nerillidae, Di Harbor on the south shore of O'ahu, Hawai'i nophilidae, and Polygordiidae (Jouin 1971, (Bailey-Brock 1979). -

Memoirs of Museum Victoria 71: 247–269. Annelida, traditionally divided into Polychaeta and Clitellata, is an evolutionary ancient and ecologically important group today usually considered to be monophyletic. However, there is a long debate regarding the in-group relationships as well as the direction of evolutionary changes within the group. This debate is correlated to the extraordinary evolutionary diversity of this group. Although annelids may generally be characterised as organisms with multiple repetitions of identically organised segments and usually bearing certain other characters such as a collagenous cuticle, chitinous chaetae or nuchal organs, none of these are present in every subgroup. This is even true for the annelid key character, segmentation. The first morphology-based cladistic analyses of polychaetes showed Polychaeta and Clitellata as sister groups. -

The traditionally recognized classes were Polychaeta, Oligochaeta and Hirudinea. The latter two are now viewed as the taxon Clitellata, since recognizing Hirudinea with class rank renders Oligochaeta paraphyletic. Polychaeta appears to contain Clitellata, and so may be synonymous with Annelida. Current consensus would place previously rec- ognized phyla such as Echiura, Pogonophora, Sipuncula and Vestimentifera as annelids, though relationships among these and the various other annelid lineages are still unresolved. Key words: Polychaeta, Oligochaeta, Clitellata, Echiura, Pogonophora, Vestimentifera, Sipuncula, phylogeny, review Introduction Annelida is a group commonly referred to as segmented worms, found worldwide in terrestrial, freshwater and marine habitats. The first annelids were formally named by Linnaeus, including well-known forms such as the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris Linnaeus, 1758, the medicinal leech Hirudo medicinalis Linnaeus, 1758, and the sea-mouse Aphrodite aculeata Linnaeus, 1758. -

We hope that your travel to Long Beach was pleasant and that you are ready for five days of enlightening programs and time spent with friends and colleagues. 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. -

Cladistics and polychaetes.•Zoo/. Scr. 26: 139-204. A series of cladistic analyses assesses the status and membership of the taxon Polychaeta. The available literature, and a review by Fauchald & Rouse (1997), on the 80 accepted families of the Polychaeta are used to develop characters and data matrices. As well as the polychaete families, non- polychaete taxa, such as the Echiura, Euarthropoda, Onychophora, Pogonophora (as Frenulata and Vestimentifera), Clitellata, Aeolosomatidae and Potamodrilidae, are included in the analyses. All trees are rooted using the Sipuncula as outgroup. Characters are based on features (where present) such as the prostomium, peristomium, antennae, palps, nuchal organs, parapodia, stomodaeum, segmental organ structure and distribution, circulation and chaetae. A number of analyses are performed, involving different ways of coding and weighting the characters, as well as the number of taxa included. Transformation series are provided for several of these analyses. One of the analyses is chosen to provide a new classification. The Annelida is found to be monophyletic, though weakly supported, and comprises the Clitellata and Polychaeta. The Polychaeta is monophyletic only if laxa such as the Pogonophora, Aeolosomatidae and Potamodrilidae are included and is also weakly supported. The Pogonophora is reduced to the rank of family within the Polychaeta and reverts to the name Siboglinidae Caullery, 1914. -

Genome Size Diversity and Patterns Within the Annelida
Genome Size Diversity and Patterns within the Annelida by Alison Christine Forde A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Environmental Biology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Alison Christine Forde, January, 2013 ABSTRACT GENOME SIZE DIVERSITY AND PATTERNS WITHIN THE ANNELIDA Alison Christine Forde Advisors: University of Guelph, 2013 Dr. T. Ryan Gregory Dr. Jonathan Newman This thesis concerns genomic variation within the Annelida, for which genome size studies are few and provide data for only a handful of groups. Genome size estimates were generated using Feulgen image analysis densitometry for 35 species of leeches and 61 polychaete species. Relationships were explored utilizing collection location and supplementary biological data from external sources. A novel, inverse correlation between genome size and maximum adult body size was found across all leeches. Leeches that provide parental care had significantly larger genome sizes than leeches that do not. Additionally, specimens identified as Nephelopsis obscura exhibited geographic genome size variation. Within the Polychaeta, Polar region polychaete genomes were significantly larger than those of Atlantic and Pacific polychaetes. These studies represent the first exploration of leech genome sizes, and provide base evidence for numerous future studies to examine relationships between genome size and life history traits across and within different annelid groups. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I have been extraordinarily fortunate to have a strong support system during my undergraduate and graduate studies at the University of Guelph. A very sincere thank you goes to my advisor Dr. T. Ryan Gregory for his trust, leadership and guidance over the past few years, and for taking an interest in the lesser-loved leeches. -

The Evolution of Annelids Reveals Two Adaptive Routes to the Interstitial Realm
Report The Evolution of Annelids Reveals Two Adaptive Routes to the Interstitial Realm Graphical Abstract Authors Torsten Hugo Struck, Anja Golombek, Anne Weigert, ..., Gu¨ nter Purschke, Christoph Bleidorn, Kenneth Michael Halanych Correspondence [email protected] In Brief Numerous animal taxa inhabit the interstitium, the space between sand grains. Our knowledge of how these species adapted to it is limited. Using a phylogenomic approach, Struck et al. showed that interstitial annelids arose by secondary adaption from larger ancestors due to either progenesis or miniaturization. The importance of miniaturization was underestimated so far. Highlights Accession Numbers d Interstitial annelid taxa are secondarily derived contra the SRP058117 archiannelid hypothesis d Several annelid clades adapted to the space between the sand grains by progenesis d Other interstitial annelids evolved by miniaturization of ancestral adult stages d Miniaturization is as important as progenesis in the adaptation to the interstitium Struck et al., 2015, Current Biology 25, 1993–1999 August 3, 2015 ª2015 Elsevier Ltd All rights reserved http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2015.06.007 Current Biology Report The Evolution of Annelids Reveals Two Adaptive Routes to the Interstitial Realm Torsten Hugo Struck,1,2,* Anja Golombek,1,3 Anne Weigert,4,5 Franziska Anni Franke,2,4 Wilfried Westheide,6 Gu¨ nter Purschke,3 Christoph Bleidorn,4 and Kenneth Michael Halanych2 1Centre of Molecular Biodiversity Research, Zoological Research Museum Alexander Koenig,
