637 Τροφοληπτικές Προτιμήσεις Του Είδους Paranemonia

Πραγματοποιήθηκαν εποχικές δειγματοληψίες ατόμων του είδους (Μάιος 2011 – Μάιος 2012) και εξέταση του περιεχομένου του κοιλεντέρου. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας έδειξαν ότι υπάρχει σημαντική εποχική διαφοροποίηση του συντελεστή κενότητας του κοιλέντερου, με μεγαλύτερες τιμές το χειμώνα και το καλοκαίρι και χαμηλότερες το φθινόπωρο. Παρατηρήθηκαν επίσης σημαντικές ποιοτικές και ποσοτικές διαφοροποιήσεις στη σύνθεση του τροφικού υπολείμματος, γεγονός που μπορεί να οφείλεται στις εποχικές μεταβολές των περιβαλλοντικών παραμέτρων της λιμνοθάλασσας. Η σύνθεση της βενθικής μακροπανίδας έδειξε ότι οι οργανισμικές συνευρέσεις του είδους σχετίζονται με τις τροφοληπτικές του προτιμήσεις. Σχετικές συγκρίσεις με παλαιότερες έρευνες στη λιμνοθάλασσα έδειξαν μεταβολές των τροφοληπτικών προτιμήσεων του είδους.

Specimens were sampled seasonally from May 2011 to May 2012 and the coelenteron content was examined. The results showed significant seasonal variation of the emptiness coefficient, with higher values in winter and summer and much lower in autumn. -

First confirmed record of an established population of sailfin molly, Poecilia latipinna (Actinopterygii: Cyprinodontiformes: Poeciliidae), in Europe. Acta Ichthyol. Piscat. 47 (3): 311–315. Abstract. The ornamental aquarium trade has been responsible for several introductions of non-indigenous species in freshwater ecosystems. This report confirms the presence of an established non-native molly population in a tectonic, brackish, geothermal lagoon located in Greece (Lake Vouliagmeni near Athens). The Vouliagmeni molly was positively identified as the true sailfin molly, Poecilia latipinna (Lesueur, 1821), using the number of scales around the caudal peduncle as the principal diagnostic character within the sailfin molly species complex. To our knowledge, this is the first documented record of an established sailfin molly population in European waters.

The catalogue of the invertebrate collection donated by Prof. Dr. Ion Cantacuzino represents the first detailed description of this historical act. The early years of Prof. Dr. Ion Cantacuzino’s career are dedicated to natural sciences, collecting and drawing of marine invertebrates followed by experimental studies. The present paper represents gathered data from Grigore Antipa 1931 inventory, also from the original handwritten labels. The specimens were classified by current nomenclature. The present donation comprises 70 species of Protozoa, Porifera, Coelenterata, Mollusca, Annelida, Bryozoa, Sipuncula, Arthropoda, Chaetognatha, Echinodermata, Tunicata and Chordata.. The specimens were collected from the North West of the Mediterranean Sea (Villefranche–sur–Mer) and in 1899 were donated to the Museum of Natural History from Bucharest. The original catalogue of the donation was lost and along other 27 specimens. This contribution represents an homage to Professor’s Dr. Cantacuzino generosity and withal restoring this donation to its proper position on cultural heritage hallway. Key words.

Key words: distribution; new records; sea anemones. Twentysix species of sea anemones (Actiniaria) collected in Galicia, northwestern Spain are present in the collection of the Netherlands Centre for Biodiversity Naturalis. They are listed and discussed. The cnidom of seventeen species is surveyed. Diadumene cincta is not a recent immigrant in western Europe. Sagartia luciae is (re)assigned to the genus Diadumene. The presence of Sagartia troglodytes in the Mediter- ranean is doubtful at best. Introduction During the years 1962-1964 marine biological, oceanographical and sedimento- logical investigations were carried out in the Ria de Arosa, northwestern Spain, joint- ly by a team of the Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden (now Netherlands Centre for Biodiversity Naturalis) and the Department of Geology and Mineralogy of Leiden University. For information on the scope and aims of these investigations, see Brongersma & Pannekoek (1966). During the three research campaigns 932 marine stations were sampled using e.g. -

Se han listado 472 especies, de las que 253 (54 %) son antozoos (Anthozoa) y 219 (46 %) medusozoos (Hydrozoa, Scyphozoa, Staurozoa). De ellas, 406 (86 %) se conocen al sur del paralelo 45ºN (sector meridional del golfo y Galicia). Se ha trazado asimismo la repartición batimétrica de cada especie en el ámbito considerado, atribuyéndose en cada caso su presencia al Dominio Costero (0-200 m) y al Dominio Bentónico Profundo (200+ m). Los medusozoos están más diversificados en el Dominio Costero y los antozoos en el Dominio Bentónico Profundo. -
