Hydrozoa, Cnidaria) in the Collection of the Zoological Museum, University of Tel-Aviv, Israel Report on hydroids (Hydrozoa, Cnidaria) in the collection of the Zoological Museum, University of Tel-Aviv, Israel W. Vervoort Vervoort, W. Report on hydroids (Hydrozoa, Cnidaria) in the collection of the Zoological Museum, University of Tel-Aviv, Israel. Zool. Med. Leiden 67 (40), 24.xii.1993:537-565.— ISSN 0024-0672. Key words: Cnidaria; Hydrozoa; Hydroida; eastern Mediterranean fauna; Red Sea hydroid fauna. Twenty-eight hydroid species are recorded from the eastern Mediterranean and the northern part of the Red Sea, all material originating from the collections of the Museum of the Zoological Institute, Tel-Aviv University. The collection also included four species that could only be identified to generic level. Though the majority had previously been recorded from either the Mediterranean or the Red Sea, some constitute the first definite record from Israeli coastal waters. All material has been re- deposited in the Tel-Aviv collection; slides and some duplicate samples are in the collections of the National Museum of Natural History (Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum, now also incorporating the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie), Leiden, the Netherlands. W. Vervoort, Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum, RO. Box 9517, 2300 RA, Leiden, The Netherlands. Introduction The collection of Hydroida reported upon below was sent to me for identification several years ago by Dr Y. Benayahu, Zoological Museum, University of Tel-Aviv; additional specimens have intermittently been received. The collection is of interest because it contains a number of samples from Mediterranean waters off Israel, a region poor in hydroid records, though a report on a smaller collection from the same area and also belonging to the Zoological Museum, Tel-Aviv, was previously published by Picard (1950). I have been permitted to make slides for the collections of the National Museum of Natural History [Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum (NNM), now incorporating the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie (RMNH)], Leiden, the Netherlands; those slides bear a registration number (RMNH Coel. no....) and a slide number and are indicated under 'Material' in the text, along with the reg• istration number of the Tel-Aviv Museum (NS.... and CO....). In such cases where a sample has also been deposited in the NNM collections this has been indicated. My thanks are due to Dr Y. Benayahu for placing the collection at my disposal and for commenting upon a preliminary draft of this paper. I am grateful to the authorities of the NNM for facilities to carry out my research.

E-mail: [email protected] 1Corresponding author Abstract Five species of aglaopheniid hydroids (Aglaophenopsis cornuta, Cladocarpus diana, C. formosus, C. integer, and Nema- tocarpus ramuliferus) were collected from the Flemish Cap, Flemish Pass, and Grand Banks of Newfoundland during sur- veys with bottom trawls, rock dredges, and scallop gear. All are infrequently reported species, with C. diana being discovered for the first time since its original description from Iceland. We document here the southernmost collections of C. diana and N. ramuliferus, both previously unknown in the western Atlantic. Each of the five species is described and illustrated based on fertile material, a key is provided for their identification, and bathymetric distributions are noted. Known depth ranges are extended for A. cornuta, C. diana, and C.

Species in the genus Bugula are globally distributed. They are most abundant in tropical and temperate shallow waters, but representatives are found in polar regions. Seven species occur in the Arctic and one in the Antarctic and species are represented in continental shelf or greater depths as well. The main characters used to define the genus include bird’s head pedunculate avicularia, erect colonies, embryos brooded in globular ooecia and branches comprising two or more series of zooids. Skeletal morphology has been the primary source of taxonomic information for many calcified bryozoan groups, including the Buguloidea. Several morphological characters, however, have been suggested to be homoplastic at dis- tinct taxonomic levels, in the light of molecular phylogenies.

  • On Some Hydroids (Cnidaria) from the Coast of Pakistan
    Pakistan J. Zool., vol. 38(3), pp. 225-232, 2006. On Some Hydroids (Cnidaria) from the Coast of Pakistan NASEEM MOAZZAM AND MOHAMMAD MOAZZAM Institute of Marine Sciences, University of Karachi, Karachi 75270, Pakistan (NM) and Marine Fisheries Department, Government of Pakistan, Fish Harbour, West Wharf, Karachi 74900, Pakistan (MM) Abstract .- The paper deals with the occurrence of eleven species of the hydroids from the coast of Pakistan. All the species are reported for the first time from Pakistan. These species are Hydractinia epidocleensis, Pennaria disticha, Eudendrium capillare, Orthopyxis cf. crenata, Clytia noliformis, C. hummelincki, Dynamena crisioides, D. quadridentata, Sertularia distans, Pycnotheca mirabilis and Macrorhynchia philippina.

INTRODUCTION used in the paper are derived from Millard (1975), Gibbons and Ryland (1989), Ryland and Gibbons (1991). In comparison to other invertebrates, TAXONOMIC ENUMERATION hydroids are one of the least known groups of marine animals from the coast of Pakistan Haque Family BOUGAINVILLIIDAE (1977) reported a few Cnidaria from the Pakistani Genus HYDRACTINIA Van Beneden, 1841 coast including two hydroids i.e. Plumularia flabellum Allman, 1883 (= P. insignis Allman, 1. Hydractinia epidocleensis Leloup, 1931 1883) and Campanularia juncea Allman, 1874 (= (Fig. 1) Thyroscyphus junceus (Allman, 1876) from Keamari and Bhit Island, Karachi, respectively.

Javed and Mustaquim (1995) reported Sertularia turbinata (Lamouroux, 1816) from Manora Channel, Karachi. The present paper describes eleven species of Cnidaria collected from the Pakistani coast all of which are new records for Pakistan.

F. S. CORNELIUS Department ofZoology, British Muséum ( Natural History), Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD {Accepted 16 December 1987) Chitina ericopsis Carter, 1873, is a large, rarely-reported, arborescent hydroid with a thick internai chitinous skeleton. Ils afïinities have been unclear since its first description more than one hundred years ago. Study of new material which includes hydranths confirms that it should be referred to the family Solanderiidae which comprises just one other genus, Solanderia. The distinctions between the two included gênera are summarized. The species is redescribed, détails of hydranth morphology and cindocysts being given for the first time. Type material is identified and redescribed. KEYWORDS: Hydroid, Solanderiidae, Chitina, Solanderia, hydranths, cnidocysts, New Zealand, type material, systematics. Introduction The seldom-reported and unusually large arborescent hydroid Chitina ericopsis Carter, 1873, was originally described from colonies up to 40 cm in height collected in New Zealand waters by 'Dr Sinclair and Sir G. Grey' (Carter, 1873). Colonies of such size are unusual among hydroids and although longer colonies occur in some families in no other are the main trunks so massive. They resuit from the fusion of numerous typical hydrozoan chitinous perisarc tubes the walls of which are perforated by numerous fenestrae. This basic pattern is modified during development so that a robust, three-dimensional network results (Figs 4, 5).

Rua Ceará, Campus Umuarama, 38402-400 Uberlândia, MG, Brazil. E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT. Hydroids are broadly reported in epiphytic associations from different localities showing marked seasonal cycles. Studies have shown that the factors behind these seasonal differences in hydroid richness and abundance may vary significantly according to the area of study. Seasonal differences in epiphytic hydroid cover and richness were evaluated in a Sargassum cymosum C. Agardh bed from Lázaro beach, at Ubatuba, Brazil. Significant seasonal differences were found in total hydroid cover, but not in species richness. Hydroid cover increased from March (early fall) to February (summer). Most of this pattern was caused by two of the most abundant species: Aglaophenia latecarinata Allman, 1877 and Orthopyxis sargassicola (Nutting, 1915). Hydroid richness seems to be related to S. cymosum size but not directly to its biomass. The seasonal differences in hydroid richness and algal cover are shown to be similar to other works in the study region and in the Mediterranean. Seasonal recruitment of hydroid species larvae may be responsible for their seasonal differences in algal cover, although other factors such as grazing activity of gammarid amphipods on S.
