The genus imstigoteuthis contains two subgenera, Mastigoteuthis s. str. and Ebhinoteuthis. The genus ldioteuthis is here resurected, and it is divisible into two sub- genera, ldioteuthis s. str. and Mbgnoteuthis nov. The family Mastigoteuthidae was first established by Verrill (1881) and subsequently Chun (1910) placed it as a subfamily of the Chiroteuthidae including eight species. Roper et al. (1969) raised it again to the family by incorporating with the genus Ebhinoteuthis Joubin, 1993, which was based on three paralarvae of questionable taxenomical position. Nesis (1977) attempted a preliminary revision of the Mastigoteuthis and prepared a key to the species. In a recent work, he (l987) proposed two subgenera for this genus, namely, Mtzstigoteuthis s. str. and Mastigopsis Grimpe, 1922, but none for the genus Echinoteuthis that contained two species. Besides Mastigoteuthis s. str. and Mastigopsis he (1977, 1987) recognized the grimaldii-species group based on the structure and position of tentacular suckers. During an extensive and critical examination of the morphology of the 310 specimens collected from the Northwest Pacific, it became clear that the family Mastigoteuthidae is reasonably divisible into two genera, each contains two subgenera. For designating the genera five major characters are selected among 18 characters used for the more extensiye revision on Northwest Pacific fauna (Salcedo-Vargas, 1993) (Fig. 1). Five more eharacters lead to define the subgenera (Fig. 2). The discussion on detailed sucker morphology is referable to Salcedo-Vargas (in press). In Figs. 3-6 are shown the four sub- genera recognized for the family Mastigoteuthidae. 1. Genus Mastigoteuthis Verrill, 1881 See the definition of Mastigoteuthis s. str. below 1.1.

The dorsal margin of the antero-dorsal lobe of the mantle is slightly produced to the funnel. Body covered by numerous white small photophores embedded in the integument, covered each one by small, dark chromatophores in the center. They are mainly concentrated in the ventral side of the body, especially apparent in the anterior end of the tail and posterior extremities of the fins in ventral and dorsal sides. Funnel cartilage ovate in outline with weakly developed tragus and low antitragus, forming a deeper cavity in posterior margin rather than the real antitTagus. Tentacle long and narrow, longer than mantle length, whip-shaped, not expanded in the center of the club, with suckers covering 60Celb of the club. In the proximal part of the club, at the beginning of the sucker rows, a group of suckers are separated from the rest "circular forming a pad"-like structure. Middle part suckers develop small cushions from the proxirnal margin of the inner ring. Photophore on the eye sinus very small. Included species: 1. Mastigoteuthis agassizii (Verrill, 1881) syn.

NII-Electronic Library Service The malacologicalsocietymalacological society of Japan 122 VENUS: Vol. 53, No.2(1994) Remarks: The weak development of the tragus, the relative small size of the eyes, the distinctive small size of the arm suckers from Arm IV are important characters to separate this subgenera from other taxa. Rancurel (1971) in the redescription of M, grimaldii emphasized that the presence of luminous organs in the body and the teethed suckers are not enough significant to separate species. He added other external and internal characters to his description in order to improve the unsufficient description by Joubin (1895). He suggested for the first time a possible synonymy of grimaldii with dentata and the two closely related species flammea and schmidti. In spite of this, Young (1972) decided that ML grimatdii can be a species dubia. Nesis (1977, 1987) defined the grimaldii-group in which he included the grimaldii. schmidti and dentata, and rvrodes being less related to them, based on the number and size of tentacular suckers. After the close examination of the type specimen of ML schmidti and the original descrip- tions and redescriptions of the members of the grimaldii-group, Salcedo-Vargas (1993) con- cluded that grimaldii, dentata, .fTammea and schmidti, are synonymous with agassizii. 1.2. Subgenus Ebhinoteuthis Joubin, 1933 II}{pe species: Echinoteuthis donae Joubin, 1933 (=fometica Berry, 1909) Diagnosis: Body medium to large. Funnel cartilage ovate to subtriangular in outline, tragus strongly developed and oriented into the cavity, antitragus moderately to strongly developed inside. Tentacle suckers become from two rows to gradually more than 12 up to the tip of the club. Tentacular suckers in middle part slightly enlarged, but not visible to naked-eye. The inner ring (==sucker disc) develop two or three elongated pegs oriented toward the cavity. Photophore on the eye sinus sometimes enlarged. Included species: 1. Mastigotheuthis .fametica Berry, 1909 syn. Echinoteuthis clanae Joubin, 1933; Mastigoteuthis psychrophita Nesis, 1977. 2. Mastigoteuthis gtaukopis Chun, 1910 syn. Mastigoteuthis iseiini MacDonald and Clench, 1934. 3. Mastigoteuthis atlantica Joubin, 1933 4. Mastigoteuthis nvrodes Young, 1972 5. Mastigoteuthis n. sp. Salcedo-Vargas, 1993 Remarks: This subgenu$ is separable from the Mastigoteuthis s. str. by the well excavated mid-line of the dorsal margin of the mantle, by the relatively bigger size of the eyes, and the presenee of enlarged, spherical photophores in surface of the mantle, head and arms. Though the fin size is variable, this species have leaf-like to rhomboid-like fins. The Echinoteuthis was established by Joubin (1933) as the second genus of this family. Joubin separated it from the genus Mastigoteuthis in tentacle morphology and possession of the so-called "spiny tubercles" that cover all the body. It has been considered as the valid taxon by Young (1972), Nesis (1977, 1987) and Sweeney et al. (1992). But, later, Young (1991) in the examination of some paralarvae from Hawaii synonymized it with Mastigoteuthis.

NII-Electronic Library Service The malacologicalsocietymalacological society of Japan 124 VENUS: Vol. S3, No.2(1994) Taking Youngs' (1991) statements into consideration, it is concluded that the genus Eehinoteuthis is a subgenus of Mastigeteuthis, even though one of the three specimens of Joubin is of doubtful taxonomic position. The name danae is considered to be a synenym of ML .famelica. Joubin himself indicat- ed the ctose relationship to that species, Young also (1991) mentioned the close relationship with .fametica in his redefinition of the species from Hawaii. The morphology of the paralarval specimens from the Northwest Pacific agrees with their views. 2.

  • A Review of Southern Ocean Squids Using Nets and Beaks
    Marine Biodiversity (2020) 50:98 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12526-020-01113-4 REVIEW A review of Southern Ocean squids using nets and beaks Yves Cherel1 Received: 31 May 2020 /Revised: 31 August 2020 /Accepted: 3 September 2020 # Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung 2020 Abstract This review presents an innovative approach to investigate the teuthofauna from the Southern Ocean by combining two com- plementary data sets, the literature on cephalopod taxonomy and biogeography, together with predator dietary investigations. Sixty squids were recorded south of the Subtropical Front, including one circumpolar Antarctic (Psychroteuthis glacialis Thiele, 1920), 13 circumpolar Southern Ocean, 20 circumpolar subantarctic, eight regional subantarctic, and 12 occasional subantarctic species. A critical evaluation removed five species from the list, and one species has an unknown taxonomic status. The 42 Southern Ocean squids belong to three large taxonomic units, bathyteuthoids (n = 1 species), myopsids (n =1),andoegopsids (n = 40). A high level of endemism (21 species, 50%, all oegopsids) characterizes the Southern Ocean teuthofauna. Seventeen families of oegopsids are represented, with three dominating families, onychoteuthids (seven species, five endemics), ommastrephids (six species, three endemics), and cranchiids (five species, three endemics). Recent improvements in beak identification and taxonomy allowed making new correspondence between beak and species names, such as Galiteuthis suhmi (Hoyle 1886), Liguriella podophtalma Issel, 1908, and the recently described Taonius notalia Evans, in prep. Gonatus phoebetriae beaks were synonymized with those of Gonatopsis octopedatus Sasaki, 1920, thus increasing significantly the number of records and detailing the circumpolar distribution of this rarely caught Southern Ocean squid. The review extends considerably the number of species, including endemics, recorded from the Southern Ocean, but it also highlights that the corresponding species to two well-described beaks (Moroteuthopsis sp.

Oliphant, and Ingrid L. K. Iverson 1971 1 2 ABSTRACT The authors investigated food habits of albacore, Thunnus alalunga, bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus, and bonito, Sarda chiliensis, in the eastern North Pacific Ocean during 1968 and 1969. While most stomach samples came from fish caught commercially off southern California and Baja California, some came from fish taken in central Califor- nia, Oregon, and Washington waters. Standard procedures included enumeration of food items, volumetric analysis, and measure of frequency of occur- rence. The authors identified the majority of forage organisms to the specific level through usual taxonomic methods for whole animals. Identification of partially digested animals was accomplished through the use of otoliths for fish, beaks for cephalopods, and the exoskeleton for invertebrates. A pictorial guide to beaks of certain eastern Pacific cephalopods was prepared and proved helpful in identifying stomach contents. This guide is presented in this publication. The study indicates the prominent forage for bluefin tuna, bonito, and albacore in California waters is the northern anchovy, Engraulis mordax. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Food Habits Study of Organisms of the California Current System, (Project 6–7-R), was an investigation estab- lished under contract between the U.S.

Jackson iv ABSTRACT Determining the biotic and abiotic influences on the distribution and abundance of marine mammals is essential for understanding the dynamics of the food chain. The predator-prey relationship can be deterministic in shaping both the community structure and function of marine ecosystems. This is especially pertinent to recovering toothed whale populations given their large size and high prey consumption rates. A greater knowledge of the trophic linkages between toothed whales and their prey will facilitate assessments of their combined impact on the ecosystem since marine food webs are a fusion of bottom-up and top-down energy and nutrient flow.

  • Defensive Behaviors of Deep-Sea Squids: Ink Release, Body Patterning, and Arm Autotomy
    Defensive Behaviors of Deep-sea Squids: Ink Release, Body Patterning, and Arm Autotomy by Stephanie Lynn Bush A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in Charge: Professor Roy L. Caldwell, Chair Professor David R. Lindberg Professor George K. Roderick Dr. Bruce H. Robison Fall, 2009 Defensive Behaviors of Deep-sea Squids: Ink Release, Body Patterning, and Arm Autotomy © 2009 by Stephanie Lynn Bush ABSTRACT Defensive Behaviors of Deep-sea Squids: Ink Release, Body Patterning, and Arm Autotomy by Stephanie Lynn Bush Doctor of Philosophy in Integrative Biology University of California, Berkeley Professor Roy L. Caldwell, Chair The deep sea is the largest habitat on Earth and holds the majority of its’ animal biomass. Due to the limitations of observing, capturing and studying these diverse and numerous organisms, little is known about them. The majority of deep-sea species are known only from net-caught specimens, therefore behavioral ecology and functional morphology were assumed. The advent of human operated vehicles (HOVs) and remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) have allowed scientists to make one-of-a-kind observations and test hypotheses about deep-sea organismal biology. Cephalopods are large, soft-bodied molluscs whose defenses center on crypsis. Individuals can rapidly change coloration (for background matching, mimicry, and disruptive coloration), skin texture, body postures, locomotion, and release ink to avoid recognition as prey or escape when camouflage fails. Squids, octopuses, and cuttlefishes rely on these visual defenses in shallow-water environments, but deep-sea cephalopods were thought to perform only a limited number of these behaviors because of their extremely low light surroundings.

This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiotogy Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in Air and Space Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report the research and collections of its various museums and bureaux or of professional colleagues in the world cf science and scholarship. The publications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world. Papers or monographs submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Press, subject to its own review for format and style, only through departments of the various Smithsonian museums or bureaux, where the manuscripts are given substantive review.
