BtSHOJ' MOSEtrM INTRODUCTION The following report on crustaceans selected from materia1lwhich has accumulated in Bishop Museum for several years inc1uder (1), new species, (2) known species as new Hawaiian records, an,(i (3) known species rarely recorded in the central Pacific. Recently, valuable collections have been received as a result of the current dredging operations of the M alliin, a boat of the Fi hand Game Division, Territorial Board of Agriculture and Forestry. These collections clearly reveal the presence of a crustacean fauna a ut the Hawaiian Islands. at depths of about 10 fathoms and beyond, which is not seen on the shallow reefs. Many of the unique species taken nearly 50 years ago by the Albatross of the United States Fis Com~ mission have again been brought to view. Other rare crustaceans recorded in the report were receive1 from the Honolulu Aquarium and came from fish traps operated b~ com­ mercial fishermen off the coast of Oahu at depths ranging aro~nd 16 fathoms. These specimens show that fauna at these depths har close affinities with that of the western Pacific and the Indian Ocej. It is well known that many organisms, both land and marine ~orrns, have been introduced into the Hawaiian area within recent I.years, chiefly as a result of war activities. Ocean-going craft returning to Hawaii from forward areas in the Pacific transport on theil' hulls marine organisms not previously recognized among local shore fauna, and some of these inunigrants become established in the new e9viron­ ment.

    Atti Soc. it. Sci. nat. Museo civ. Stor. nat.

Recent discoveries from the Eocene of Vicenza area allowed to describe three new genera and four new species of hexapodids. Bellhexapus granulatus n. gen., n. sp., Eohexapus albertii n. gen., n. sp., and Eurohexapus lobatus n. gen., n. sp. from the middle Eocene of “Albanello” quarry at Nogarole Vicentino (Vicenza), and Palaeopinnixa alontensis n. sp. from the upper Eocene of Alonte (Vicenza). Bellhexapus granulatus n. gen., n. sp. and Eurohexapus lobatus n. gen., n. sp. preserve the carapace, the ventral and abdominal male parts, while Eohexapus albertii n. gen., n. sp. preserves the carapace, the ventral and abdominal female parts. Palaeopinnixa alontensis n. sp. preserves instead only the carapace. Key words : Crustacea, Decapoda, Hexapodidae, Eocene, NE Italy.

    Phylogenetic Systematics of the Reptantian Decapoda (Crustacea, Malacostraca)

    Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society (1995), 113: 289–328. With 21 figures Phylogenetic systematics of the reptantian Decapoda (Crustacea, Malacostraca) GERHARD SCHOLTZ AND STEFAN RICHTER Freie Universita¨t Berlin, Institut fu¨r Zoologie, Ko¨nigin-Luise-Str. 1-3, D-14195 Berlin, Germany Received June 1993; accepted for publication January 1994 Although the biology of the reptantian Decapoda has been much studied, the last comprehensive review of reptantian systematics was published more than 80 years ago. We have used cladistic methods to reconstruct the phylogenetic system of the reptantian Decapoda. We can show that the Reptantia represent a monophyletic taxon. The classical groups, the ‘Palinura’, ‘Astacura’ and ‘Anomura’ are paraphyletic assemblages. The Polychelida is the sister-group of all other reptantians. The Astacida is not closely related to the Homarida, but is part of a large monophyletic taxon which also includes the Thalassinida, Anomala and Brachyura. The Anomala and Brachyura are sister-groups and the Thalassinida is the sister-group of both of them. Based on our reconstruction of the sister-group relationships within the Reptantia, we discuss alternative hypotheses of reptantian interrelationships, the systematic position of the Reptantia within the decapods, and draw some conclusions concerning the habits and appearance of the reptantian stem species.

    THE RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 2004 THE RAFFLES BULLETIN OF ZOOLOGY 2004 52(2): 673-693 © National University of Singapore PHYLOGENY OF THE DECAPODA REPTANTIA: RESOLUTION USING THREE MOLECULAR LOCI AND MORPHOLOGY Shane T. Ahyong and Denis O’Meally Australian Museum, 6 College St., Sydney, NSW 2010, Australia Email: (STA) [email protected], (DOM) [email protected] ABSTRACT. – The controversial interrelationships of the major clades of the reptant decapods are resolved by simultaneous analysis of 16S, 18S, and 28S rRNA sequences in combination with morphology. All major reptant clades are represented including the first molecular data for the controversial Polychelidae, Glypheidae, and Enoplometopidae. Interrelationships of major clades in the shortest morphological cladograms were identical to those based on the molecular partition, and were congruent with those of the optimal combined analyses. The optimal tree, namely, that exhibiting minimal overall incongruence between morphological and molecular partitions was achieved under equal transition: transversion weights. Palinura, as traditionally recognised, is polyphyletic corroborating several recent studies. Infraordinal relationships are robust and insensitive to transition weight variation. For clades previously comprising the Palinura, we recognise Achelata, Polychelida and Glypheidea. Polychelida is sister to the remaining Repantia. Achelata is near basal and sister to Fractosternalia. Contrary to many previous studies, glypheideans are neither basal reptants, nor are they related to Thalassinidea, Brachyura or Anomura. Glypheidea is sister to Astacidea. A monophyletic Astacidea, comprising the freshwater crayfish (Astacida) and marine clawed lobsters (Homarida), corroborates most previous studies. The enigmatic lobster Enoplometopus (Enoplometopoidea) is confirmed as an astacidean rather than a possible thalassinidean. Unusual characters of the extinct uncinid lobsters, shared with enoplometopids, suggest close affinity, extending the fossil record of the Enoplometopoidea to the Lower Jurassic.

    Taxonomy of Lobsters Sub-Order: Reptantia  Dorso-Ventrally Flattened Body

    Taxonomy of lobsters Sub-order: Reptantia Dorso-ventrally flattened body. Rostrum short or absent. Abdomen well-developed or reduced with first segment smaller than the posterior ones. Antennules do not have stylocerite. Antennal scale reduced or absent. Thoracic legs strong with first pair usually forming large pincer-like claws or chelipeds. Pleopods often reduced and not adapted for swimming. The sub-order Reptantia is divided into three sections (infraorder) - Macrura, Anomura and Brachyura. Subsection (Infraorder): Macrura Well-developed abdomen and extended uropods and telson form a broad tail-fan. First and third legs similar. Gills numerous. It includes two sub-sections namely Palinura and Astacura. Sub-section: Palinura Rostrum small or absent. Body depressed. Legs rarely chelate. Eg. Lobster (Panulirus, Thenus, Scyllarus) This sub-section consists of commercially important lobsters. Systematic position Phylum : Arthropoda Sub-phylum : Mandibulata Class : Crustacea Sub-class : Malacostraca Series : Eumalacostraca Super-order : Eucarida Order : Decapoda Sub-order : Reptantia Section (Infraorder) : Macrura Sub-section : Palinura Super-family : Palinuroidea Family : Palinuridae General morphology of lobster 1. Body consists of two main parts a) Cephalothorax (formed by the fusion of cephalon or head, with the thorax) with its appendages. b) Abdomen with its appendages. 2. The 14 somites (or body-segments) of the cephalothrax (the first 6 forming the cephalon, the last 8 the thorax) are fused and only in a few places there are visible indications of the lines between the somites. Each somite carries one pair of appendages. These appendages are the following, Somite 1 (= ophthalmic somite) carries the eyes, that are usually movable and consist of a stalk, formed by one or two segments.
