Zeitschrift Für Wissenschaftliche Zoologie © Biodiversity Heritage Library, http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/; www.zobodat.at über drei unterirdische Gammariden. Von Dr. August Wrzesniowski, früheren o. ö. Professor der Zoologie an der kaiserlichen Universität zu Warschau. Mit Tafel XXVII—XXXII. Während meines Aufenthaltes in Zakopane (spr. Sakopane) am Nordabhange des Tatra-Gebirges im Jahre 1 882 erhielt ich ein Exem- plar Niphargus, welches aus einem dortigen Kellerbrunnen stammte. Lange Zeit konnte ich mir keine weiteren Exemplare verschaffen, bis ich endlich nach langem vergeblichen Forschen in Folge Anwendung der AsPER'schen Methode ^ mein Ziel erreichte. Ich füllte nämlich auf- gefischten Bodensatz aus einem der dort in Kellern gegrabenen Brunnen in einen lose gewebten Musselinsack, spülte denselben in einem mit Wasser gefüllten Becken durch, seihte dann das getrübte Wasser durch ein dichtes Maschennetz. Alsbald fand ich in meinem Sacke größere, in dem Netze kleinere Exemplare vor. Die in Zakopane üblichen Schöpfbrunnen sind gewöhnlich kaum einen Meter tief, weil auf dem dortigen Felsengrunde nur eine geringe Erdschicht ruht; desshalb war es mir möglich aus besagten Brunnen mit einem gewöhnlichen Exkur- sionsnetze den erforderlichen Bodensatz herauszuheben. Diesen meinen Fund schriftlich zu verwerthen erleichterte mir erheblich die freundliche Beihilfe von Fachgenossen. So beehrte mich Professor Dr. Franz Vejdovsky in Prag gefälligst mit der Zusendung zahlreicher Exemplare des daselbst aufgefundenen Brunnen-Niphargus und mehrerer bezüglicher litterarischer Quellen. Die kollegiale Zuvorkommenheit des Herrn Professor Dr. Henri Blanc in Lausanne und des Herrn Dr. Alexander Strauch, Mitglied der kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften in St. Petersburg ermög- 1 Asper, Beiträge zur Kenntnis der Tiefseefauna der Schweizer Seen, in : Zool.

Rev. Th. R. R. Stebbing beschenkte mich mit seinem für jeden Forscher auf diesem Gebiete entschieden unentbehrlichen, mit be- wunderungswürdiger Sachkenntnis und Erudition verfassten Werke über Ämphipoden. Desshalb ergreife ich mit der größten Freude die Gelegenheit, diesen Herren für ihre thatsächlich erwiesene Reihilfe und Gunst hier meinen innigsten Dank auszusprechen. Vorliegende Abhandlung ist ursprünglich in polnischer \ und dar- auf als gedrängte, vorläufige Mittheilung in deutscher 2 Sprache im Druck erschienen ; ich erachte es jedoch für angemessen, meinen Fachgenossen einen vollständigen und ergänzten Text derselben zur Würdigung vor- zulegen.

Betreffs Cancer pulex theilt Franz von Paula Schrank (4, p. 535j unter Anderem mit : >)Habitat in aquis, rivis, fontibus ; albissimus dum natat«. — Rev. Th. R. R. Steb- bing(137, p. 51) ist der Ansictit, dass die Worte »in rivis« den Schluss zu recht- fertigen scheinen, dass Schrank der Gammarus pulex bekannt gewesen wäre, während die Worte »in fontibusf-, mit der Bemerkung »albissimus , dum natak voraussetzen lassen, dass er es möglicherweise mit einem Brunnen-Amphip öden, und zwar dem Niphargus aquilex zu thun gehabt. In dem Werke von Schrank (1781) wäre somit die erste Erwähnung eines Niphargus gethan worden. W. E. Leach (9, 55, p. 312, 316), 1814, berichtet über einen im Londoner Brunnen gefundenen Gammariden, den er als Gammarus subterraneus bezeichnet hat. Über denselben finden wir nur folgende, höchst ungenügende Mittheilung (9, p. 84) : »It differs from Gammarus pulex in having the upper process of the tail much longer. The colour, when alive, was cinerous, but so translucent, that the eyes could not be discovered.n Der Mangel der Augen thut zur Genüge dar, dass es kein eigentlicher Gammarus war; die ursprüngliche Vermuthung von A. White (30), dass Gammarus subterraneus den jungen Gammarus pulex repräsentire, ist mithin hinfällig. Diesen Gammarus subterraneus näher zu determiniren gestattet der Ab- gang hierzu unentbehrlicher Angaben nicht. Auch sprechen zu Gunsten der Ver- muthung Adam White's (45), Spence Bate's und J. 0. Westwood's (55, p. 316), Rev. Th. R. R. Stebbing's (137, p. 84) und Anderer, derselbe sei möglicherweise mit M- phargus aquilex Schiödte oder Crangonyx subterraneus S. Bäte identisch, keine hinreichenden Gründe. In seine Bemerkungen über Gammarus pulex schaltet Zenker (18, p. 17), 1832, den Satz ein : »Saepenumero satis singulari laborant leucomate, ubi oculi prorsus al- bent«. Leydig (94, p. 245) vermuthet, gewiss mit Recht, Zenker sei in Thüringen auf den Niphargus puteanus gestoßen. Paul Gervais (19, p. 127, 128), 1835, bemerkt beim Besprechen beider in der Gegend von Paris vorkommenden Gammarus-krien : Garn, pulex und Gam. fluvia- tilis Roesel (dessen Name er unnöthigerweise mit dem Namen Gam. Roeselii ver- tauschte), dass in den dortigen Brunnen auch ein winziger Gammarus vorkomme, bei dem er keine Augen wahrzunehmen vermochte, und dessen Körper pigmentlos war. Er bezeichnete diesen letzteren als Gammarus minutus, später jedoch, 1859, führte er denselben unter dem Namen Gammarus lacteus (49, p. 488) an und fügt die wenig belehrende Bemerkung hinzu, derselbe komme in Brunnen vor. C. L. Koch lieferte, allem Anscheine nach ziemlich gleichzeitig mit Gervais, eine Beschreibung und Abbildung des von ihm in den Brunnen von Regensburg entdeckten Gammarus puteanus n. s. (20, 5. Heft, Taf. II) und bildete einige Jahre später unter dieser Benennung einen Brunnenkrebs aus der Stadt Zweibrücken ab (20, 36. Heft, Taf. XXII). Doch erscheinen die Publikationsdaten beider uns inter- essirenden Hefte unsicher 1. 1 Das 5. und 36. Heft sind ohne Publikationsdaten. Das 8. und 9. Heft sind am 9. Oktober 1836 gedruckt. Es ist somit wahrscheinlich, wie viele Carcinologen voraussetzen, dass das 5. Heft im Jahre 1835 erschienen ist. Das 34. Heft erschien im Jahre 1841, das 38. im Jahre 1844; Heft 36 ist somit zwischen diesen Jahren, möglicherweise im Jahre 1841 im Druck erschienen. Auch bildet Koch's Werk einen Theil des Werkes von Gottl. Aug. Wilh. Herrich-Schäffer, Die Fortsetzung © Biodiversity Heritage Library, http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/; www.zobodat.at über drei unterirdische Gammariden. 603 H. Milne-Edwards (24, p. 47), -1840, charakterisirt auf folgende Weise eine neue Art Gammarus pungens aus den warmen Quellen des Berges Cassini in Italien : »le petit appendice terminal des dernieres fausses pates tout-ä-fait, rudimentaire , et le tres-poilu et grand appendice ä peine epineuxa. Spence Bäte (54, p. 217, Anm. ; 55, p. 314), sowie auch Rev. Th. R. R. Stebbing (137, p. 253) sind augenscheinlich auf Grund der Form des letzten Uropodenpaares der Meinung, dass derselbe eigentlich der Gattung Niphargus angehöre und somit als Niphargus pungens zu bezeichnen sei. In seinem Berichte über die Fauna der Höhlen von Krain und Istrien charak- terisirt Schiödte (26), 1847, einen neuen blinden, in der Höhle Postojna (Adelsberg), Predjama (Lueg) und in der Magdalenenhöhle entdeckten Gammarus stygius . Einige Jahre später (1851) beschreibt er diesen Krebs ausführlich, bildet denselben ab und stellt für denselben eine neue Gattung Niphargus auf (32, p. 26—28). Im Jahre 1855 beschreibt er (39) den aus einem Brunnen in Maidenhead in England stam- menden Niphargus aquilex. Von letzterem hat bereits Professor J. 0. Westwood (38) die Linnean Society in London im Jahre 1853 benachrichtigt, bezeichnete aber denselben unrichtig als Niphargus stygius Schiödte. Robert Caspary (27), 1849, untersuchte zahlreiche, verhältnismäßig kleine Exemplare eines in einem Brunnen in Elberfeld (bei Düsseldorf) vorgefundenen Niphargus, den er mit Niphargus puteanus Koch identificirt. Die Winzigkeit der Exemplare (4,5—5 oder 6 mm Länge) und der Mangel von Eiern in den Bruttaschen der Weibchen sprechen dafür, dass er es mit jungen Exemplaren zu thun gehabt. Caspary berücksichtigt auch die Bauweise der Mundbewaffnung, liefert aber eine unrichtige Abbildung des Maxillarpalpus. Er theilte auch einige Details über den Blutkreislauf des in Rede stehenden Krebses mit. A. Hosius (29), 1850, untersuchte drei in der Gegend von Bonn heimische Gammariden, nämlich Gammarw^ pwZe^r; aus fließendem Wasser, Gammarus fluvia- tilis Rösel aus stagnirendem, und Gammarus puteanus Koch aus Brunnenwasser, und vergleicht in einer trefflichen Schilderung die Bauweise

This amphipod is indigenous to north-east Asia and has invaded several regions, including Europe, North America, New Zealand and now South Africa. C. mutica was detected in scrape samples from the hulls and niche areas of four yachts resident to False Bay Marina, Simon’s Town, on South Africa’s South Coast. A total of 2,157 individuals were recorded, comprising 512 males, 966 females (20% of which were gravid) and 679 juveniles. The yachts upon which this amphipod was found were not alongside each other, suggesting that the species is widely distributed within the marina. The presence of C. mutica in South Africa has been anticipated, as previous work highlighted the climatic suitability of the region and the presence of vectors between South Africa and other invaded areas. The fast reproductive cycle of C. mutica, along with its high reproductive output, have important implications for its invasiveness in South Africa.

    Optimisation des stratégies de surveillance pour la détection précoce d’un tunicier envahissant par l'évaluation des mécanismes et des patrons de recrutement Thèse Samuel Collin Doctorat interuniversitaire en Océanographie Philosophiae Doctor (Ph.D.) Québec, Canada © Samuel Collin, 2013 Résumé La mondialisation des activités humaines a grandement contribué à la dissémination et l‟introduction anthropique d‟espèces non indigènes (ENI) dans le monde. Le potentiel de dommages est tel qu‟il y a une grande pression sur les gestionnaires environnementaux pour détecter et contrôler les ENI problématiques (espèces envahissantes) avant que des impacts apparaissent. En étudiant les ENI, les écologistes peuvent examiner certains aspects de la survie des espèces, la dispersion et l‟établissement, qui, en plus de répondre à des questions fondamentales en écologie, fournissent des informations essentielles pour optimiser les efforts de gestion. Cependant, les difficultés associées à l‟étude et la détection des populations naissantes ont réduit les études quantitatives sur les processus qui précèdent les envahissements, laissant les gestionnaires de l‟environnement avec peu de directives pour détecter les ENI. Pour soulager ces défauts, cette étude apporte une évaluation quantitative des éléments déterminants du recrutement et de la dispersion du tunicier envahissant notoirement problématique, Ciona intestinalis, à l‟île du Prince-Édouard (IPE), Canada, pendant les phases précoces de l‟envahissement. Les données de recrutement d‟une population de Ciona ont été collectées sur une période de 2 ans (2008 & 2009), ce qui a permis de modéliser la dissémination (étendue et mode) et d‟examiner les schémas de recrutement pendant l‟établissement. Ces données soulignent l‟importance d‟incorporer la dispersion, aussi bien que la variabilité environnementale, dans les stratégies de monitorage de détection précoce et démontrent comment les facteurs déterminants du recrutement changent quand une population envahissante devient grande et plus répandue.

  • 1 Amphipoda of the Northeast Pacific
    Amphipoda of the Northeast Pacific (Equator to Aleutians, intertidal to abyss): VII. Caprelloidea – a review Donald B. Cadien, LACSD 22July04 (revised 20Apr15) Preface The purpose of this review is to bring together information on all of the species reported to occur in the NEP fauna. It is not a straight path to the identification of your unknown animal. It is a resource guide to assist you in making the required identification in full knowledge of what the possibilities are. Never forget that there are other, as yet unreported species from the coverage area; some described, some new to science. The natural world is wonderfully diverse, and we have just scratched its surface. Anthropogenic transport is also constantly introducing exotic species into our area, particularly in this superfamily. Introduction to the Caprelloidea Until recent years the caprellids were viewed as a separate suborder of the order Amphipoda, equivalent to the gammarids and the hyperiids. The discovery of the caprogammarids (Kudrjashov & Vassilenko 1966) began to call this into question (McCain 1968, 1970; Laubitz 1976, J. L. Barnard & Karaman 1983), and, following the revisionary work of Myers and Lowry (2003), they are fully nested into the gammaroids based on morphologically based cladistic analysis of their phylogeny. This position was retained in the larger analysis of Lowry & Myers (2013) which established the senticaudates, to which all of the caprellidians belong. Not all workers are willing to accept the revisions of Myers and Lowry, particularly Stella Vassilenko, who feels that it is inappropriate and based on the wrong evidence (Vassilenko 2006). She feels that caprellids should retain their own separate suborder as Caprellidea, and that Cyamida and Caprellida both should retain infraordinal rank.

In contrast, on far offshore and strictly subtidal locations, such as shipwrecks and rocky reefs, only C. linearis was found. Based on these exploratory observations, we hypothesised that artificial structures that are only subtidal are inhabited exclusively by C.

Distribution is restricted to institutions or individuals located in particular regions of Canada. However, no restriction is placed on subject matter, and the series reflects the broad interests and policies of Fisheries and Oceans Canada, namely, fisheries and aquatic sciences. Manuscript reports may be cited as full publications. The correct citation appears above the abstract of each report. Each report is abstracted in the data base Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts. Manuscript reports are produced regionally but are numbered nationally. Requests for individual reports will be filled by the issuing establishment listed on the front cover and title page. Numbers 1-900 in this series were issued as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Biological Board of Canada, and subsequent to 1937 when the name of the Board was changed by Act of Parliament, as Manuscript Reports (Biological Series) of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada.
