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. -

The Vtg gene, mRNA and protein regulation involve several environmental factors and physiological processes, including gonadal maturation and moult stages, among others. Once the Vtg gene, mRNAs and protein are obtained, it is possible to establish the relationship between the elements that participate in their regulation, which could either be species-specific, or tissue-specific. This work is a systematic analysis that compares the similarities and differences of Vtg genes, mRNA and Vtg between the crustacean species reported in databases with respect to that obtained from the transcriptome of Callinectes arcuatus, C. toxotes, Penaeus stylirostris and P. vannamei obtained with MiSeq sequencing technology from Illumina. Those analyses confirm that the Vtg obtained from selected species will serve to understand the process of vitellogenesis in crustaceans that is important for fisheries and aquaculture. RESUMEN La vitelogénesis de los crustáceos es un proceso que involucra la vitelina, producida a través de la endoproteólisis de su precursor llamado Vitelogenina (Vtg). -

Effects of Fungicides on Australian Amphipods and Organic Matter Breakdown in Aquatic Environments
EFFECTS OF FUNGICIDES ON AUSTRALIAN AMPHIPODS AND ORGANIC MATTER BREAKDOWN IN AQUATIC ENVIRONMENTS Submitted by Hung Thi Hong Vu Submitted in fulfillment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy February 2017 School of BioSciences Faculty of Science The University of Melbourne ABSTRACT Fungicides are used widely in agriculture to control fungal diseases and increase crop yield. After application, fungicides may be transported off site via air, soil and water to ground and surface waters therefore have the potential to contaminate freshwater and marine/estuarine environments. However, relatively little is known about their potential effects on aquatic ecosystems. Amphipods are important in ecosystem service as they help with nutrient recycling through the decomposition of organic matter. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the effects of common fungicides on biological responses in two Australian amphipod species, Allorchestes compressa and Austrochiltonia subtenuis, through a combination of single and mixture laboratory experiments. In addition a field experiment investigated the effects of fungicides on organic matter breakdown. In laboratory studies, juveniles of the marine amphipod A. compressa and the freshwater amphipod A.subtenuis were chronically exposed to two commonly used fungicides, Filan® (active ingredient boscalid) and Systhane™ (active ingredient myclobutanil) at environmentally relevant concentrations. A wide range of endpoints that encompass different levels of biological organization were measured including survival, growth, reproduction, and energy reserves (lipid, glycogen, and protein content). Long term interaction effects of fungicides Filan® and Systhane™ on mature amphipod A. subtenuis was also investigated to evaluate how the results of mixture studies vary between endpoints and to determine suitable endpoints for mixture toxicity studies. -

Zhirmunsky Institute of Marine Biology, Far East Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, 17 Pal’chevskogo Street, 6900041, Vladivostok, Russia The larval development of the hermit crab Areopaguristes nigroapiculus (Komai, 2009) (Decapoda: Anomura: Diogenidae) is described and illustrated from the material reared in the laboratory. The development included three zoeal and a single mega- lopal stages. At 22–258C, megalop of A. nigroapiculus was attained 6–9 days after hatching. The present paper is the first description of the complete larval development in the genus Areopaguristes. Morphological characters of zoeas and megalop of A. nigroapiculus are compared with those described for the closely related Paguristes species. The comparison on the zoeal characters revealed that A. nigroapiculus is distinguished from Paguristes species by the absence of anterolateral carapace spines and by the fused fourth telson process in zoea III. These two features are possible generic characters of Areopaguristes. In the rest of larval characters, A. nigroapiculus agree well with Paguristes species having three zoeal stages. In the plankton of Peter the Great Bay, the larvae of A. nigroapiculus sporadically occurred only in July and August, at depths of 3–45 m and surface water temperatures of 18–228C.

Pagurid Crabs (Decapoda Anomura) from St
PAGURID CRABS (DECAPODA ANOMURA) FROM ST. JOHN, VIRGIN ISLANDS, WITH DESCRIPTIONS OF THREE NEW SPECIES 1) BY ANTHONY J. PROVENZANO, Jr. Institute of Marine Science,University of Miami, Florida, U.S.A. INTRODUCTION As part of a survey of the marine fauna and flora of the recently established U. S. Virgin Islands National Park at St. John, a series of collections have been made by Marine Laboratory personnel. Among the Crustacea taken were a number of new records for the Virgin Islands, including three species not referable to any yet named. The present report deals with the hermit crabs of the families Diogenidae and Paguridae; these families corresponding to those of MacDonald, Pike & Williamson ( 1 9 5 7 ) . Synonymies are restricted to the original description and one or more references usually containing more complete information. Size of specimens where given refers to carapace length. The station numbers refer to records kept by Herman Kumpf while at St. John; the field data being on file in the Marine Laboratory Museum. Unless otherwise noted, the general locality for material examined is St. John. Holotypes are deposited in the U. S. National Museum, while most of the remaining material is deposited in the University of Miami Marine Laboratory Museum (UMML). The writer is indebted to Dr. Marvin L. Wass of the Virginia Fisheries Labora- tory for examining the three new species and for comments incorporated in the manuscript. He would also like to thank Dr. John Randall and his co-workers who made special efforts to collect hermit crabs during their general field studies. -

Klompmaker [[email protected]] — * Correspond ing author Accepted 06.viii.2015. Published online at www.senckenberg.de/arthropod-systematics on 14.xii.2015. Editor in charge: Stefan Richter. Abstract Ghost shrimps of Callianassidae and Ctenochelidae are soft-bodied, usually heterochelous decapods representing major bioturbators of muddy and sandy (sub)marine substrates. Ghost shrimps have a robust fossil record spanning from the Early Cretaceous (~ 133 Ma) to the Holocene and their remains are present in most assemblages of Cenozoic decapod crustaceans. Their taxonomic interpretation is in flux, mainly because the generic assignment is hindered by their insufficient preservation and disagreement in the biological classification. Fur- thermore, numerous taxa are incorrectly classified within the catch-all taxonCallianassa . To show the historical patterns in describing fos- sil ghost shrimps and to evaluate taphonomic aspects influencing the attribution of ghost shrimp remains to higher level taxa, a database of all fossil species treated at some time as belonging to the group has been compiled: 250 / 274 species are considered valid ghost shrimp taxa herein.
