Data Sources the Next 64 Pages Comprise a Reference List SUPPORTING INFORMATION APPENDIX 1: Data Sources The next 64 pages comprise a reference list for all literary sources given as references for trait scores and/or comments in the sFDvent raw (marked with an asterisk (*) if not then included in recommended) and/or recommended datasets (Tables S4.3 and S4.2, respectively). These references are not in alphabetical order, as the database is a ‘living’ record, so new references will be added and a new number assigned. In the recommended dataset (Table S4.2), the references are recorded according to the numbers listed below (and in Table S1.1), to ensure that citations are relatively easy for users to carry through when conducting analyses using subsets of the data, for example. If a score in the recommended dataset is supported by more than one reference, multiple reference identifiers are provided and separated by a semi-colon (;). The references are not provided as numbers / identifiers in the other versions of the dataset, as information is lost during this processing step (e.g., ‘expert opinion’, or 66, replaces comments made by experts in each reference column regarding additional observations, rationale for certainty scores, etc.), which may prove useful for some users. Other versions of the dataset thus maintain raw reference entries for transparency and as potentially useful metadata. We provide a copy of the recommended dataset without the references as numbers (Table S4.2A), in case it is easier for users to cross-reference between the two sheets to seek additional comments for a given data subset of interest. 1.

Cold seeps fluids provide an additional source of energy for various sulfide- and 27 hydrocarbon-harvesting bacteria, often in symbiosis with invertebrates, attracting a variety of other 28 organisms including crustaceans (e.g., Levin 2005; Vanreusel et al. 2009; Vrijenhoek 2013). The 29 percentage of crustaceans of all macrofaunal specimens is highly variable locally in modern seeps, from 30 0–>50% (Dando et al. 1991; Levin et al.

Wilson1, J. Zhang3,15 and N. J. Bax2,16 Abstract Background: Our knowledge of the benthic fauna at lower bathyal to abyssal (LBA, > 2000 m) depths off Eastern Australia was very limited with only a few samples having been collected from these habitats over the last 150 years. In May–June 2017, the IN2017_V03 expedition of the RV Investigator sampled LBA benthic communities along the lower slope and abyss of Australia’s eastern margin from off mid-Tasmania (42°S) to the Coral Sea (23°S), with particular emphasis on describing and analysing patterns of biodiversity that occur within a newly declared network of offshore marine parks. Methods: The study design was to deploy a 4 m (metal) beam trawl and Brenke sled to collect samples on soft sediment substrata at the target seafloor depths of 2500 and 4000 m at every 1.5 degrees of latitude along the western boundary of the Tasman Sea from 42° to 23°S, traversing seven Australian Marine Parks.

  • Otago Submarine Canyons: Mapping and Macrobenthos
    Otago Submarine Canyons: Mapping and Macrobenthos Bryce A. Peebles A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the degree of Master of Science at the University of Otago December 2013 ii Abstract Submarine canyons are steep-sided “V’ or “U” shaped valleys that incise continental slopes worldwide. The geophysical and oceanographic features of submarine canyons can produce environmental conditions that cause benthic assemblages to be distinctive and productive compared to those of the adjacent slope; however the assemblages are potentially vulnerable to anthropogenic impacts, including bottom fishing. In order to help inform policy and management, submarine canyons need to be objectively defined topographically and their benthic assemblages characterised. A canyon network occurs off the Otago Peninsula, south-eastern New Zealand, but lack of detailed bathymetric data and adequate benthic sampling has limited study of the canyons. This thesis outlines a method of defining submarine canyon areas and examines epifaunal and infaunal assemblages of the Otago canyons and adjacent slope. Objective definition of the Otago canyon network in the GIS software GRASS along with the steps to use this methodology worldwide are described. Archival count data from 1966-74 on the epifauna are analysed using the PRIMER suite of programs to characterise epifaunal assemblages. Anomurans, polychaetes, asteroids and ascidians make up 70% of the epifaunal canyon assemblage. The epifaunal assemblage is clearly defined by water depth and recognisable from 380 m. Quantitative sampling of infauna in Saunders canyon, Papanui canyon and adjacent slope was carried out to examine infaunal community structure of the canyons and adjacent slope. Infaunal canyon assemblages are dominated by polychaetes, amphipods, ophiuroids, decapods and isopods in canyons, accounting for 75% of collected individuals.

Walpole, Maine 04573; 4Oregon Institute of Marine Biology, University of Oregon, Charleston, Oregon 97420 ABSTRACT The gametogenic biology is described for seven species of gastropod from hydrothermal vents in the East Pacific and from the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. Species of the limpet genus Lepetodrilus (Family Lepetodrilidae) had a maximum unfertilized oocyte size of <90 mm and there was no evidence of reproductive periodicity or spatial variation in reproductive pattern. Individuals showed early maturity with females undergoing gametogenesis at less than one third maximum body size. There was a power relationship between shell length and fecundity, with a maximum of ;1,800 oocytes being found in one individual, although individual fecundity was usually <1,000. Such an egg size might be indicative of planktotrophic larval development, but there was never any indication of shell growth in larvae from species in this genus.

A new family Samarusidae is proposed to accommodate Samarus n. gen. which has rudimentary legs 1-5 represented only by filiform setae. Paurocheres n. gen. is characterized by 2-segmented endopod of leg 4 and reduced setation of legs, and Platymyzon n. gen. by missing of mandibular gnathobase. Keywords: ‌Samarusidae n. fam., three new genera, Samarus, Paurocheres, Platymyzon, sponge hosts INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS Siphonostomatoid copepods associated with invertebrates Studied copepod material was obtained from washings of are small copepod, mostly less than 2 mm in length (Humes, mixed species of sponges. These sponge hosts were collected 1997a). Although sponges in the tropical Indo-Pacific har- by SCUBA divers of KIOST in the depth of 15-25 m on Feb- bor numerous siphonostomatoid copepods (Humes, 1996), ruary 24, 2017.

  • Spatial Variation in the Reproductive Biology of Paralvinella Palmiformis (Polychaeta: Alvinellidae) from a Vent Field on the Juan De Fuca Ridge
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 255: 171–181, 2003 Published June 24 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Spatial variation in the reproductive biology of Paralvinella palmiformis (Polychaeta: Alvinellidae) from a vent field on the Juan de Fuca Ridge Jonathan T.

Here we present an assessment of spatial variation in the reproductive development of the alvinellid polychaete Paralvinella palmiformis at the High Rise vent field (Endeavour Segment, Juan de Fuca Ridge, NE Pacific). Samples collected from different locations across the vent field suggest patchy reproductive development for this species. Males and females from several locations contained few or no developing gametes, while gametes were abundant in samples collected at the same time from other locations. Samples lacking gametes were distinguished by body size-frequency distributions with peaks at smaller sizes and the presence or absence of other fauna consistent with early stage assemblages in a successional mosaic model previously proposed for Endeavour Segment communities. Where gametes were present, synchrony of reproductive development between females within samples and between samples was evident. Reproductive synchrony between pairs of samples initially declined over a 7 d interval between sam- ples, suggesting a rapid rate of reproductive development for P. palmiformis. Samples collected 1 mo apart, however, displayed similar frequency distributions of developing gametes.
