Marszałka Piłsudskiego 46, PL–81–378 Gdynia, Poland Received 20 December 2005, revised 23 May 2006, accepted 5 June 2006. Abstract The present paper reports for the first time on the occurrence of Platorchestia platensis (Krøyer, 1845) (Crustacea, Amphipoda) in Puck Bay (southern Baltic, Poland) in May 2005. A key to the Baltic talitrids is given, which can be used to identify males and females of the four species occurring on Polish shores (Talitrus saltator, Talorchestia deshayesii, Orchestia cavimana, Platorchestia platensis)and additionally Orchestia gammarellus, which may yet be found in the Polish coastal zone. Only three species of talitrid amphipod (Crustacea) have been recorded from Polish shores. The sandhoppers Talitrus saltator (Montagu, 1808) and Talorchestia deshayesii (Audouin, 1826) are ubiquitous beneath flotsam and jetsam or wrack cast up at the high water mark on sandy beaches * This work was funded through European Community project BALTDER under the fifth FP, contract No EVK3-CT-2002-80005 and the Polish Ministry of Scientific Research and Information.

The only recent finding is from Germany. The Swedish data are entirely from the 1920s and 1930s but on the other hand the species has not necessarily been looked for more recently. Outside the HELCOM area the species is transatlantic. The species is widespread and frequently recorded on European coasts from western Norway and Iceland to Mediterranean and Black Sea; also South-West Africa. © HELCOM Red List Benthic Invertebrate Expert Group 2013 www.helcom.fi > Baltic Sea trends > Biodiversity > Red List of species SPECIES INFORMATION SHEET Orchestia gammarellus -

Quelques Aspects Problematiques Dans La Transcription Des Toponymes Tunisiens
QUELQUES ASPECTS PROBLEMATIQUES DANS LA TRANSCRIPTION DES TOPONYMES TUNISIENS Mohsen DHIEB Professeur de géographie (cartographie) Laboratoire SYFACTE FLSH de Sfax TUNISIE [email protected] Introduction Quelle que soit le pays ou la langue d’usage, la transcription toponymique des noms de lieux géographiques sur un atlas ou un autre document cartographique en particulier ou tout autre document d’une façon générale pose problème notamment dans des pays où il n’y a pas de tradition ou de « politique » toponymique. Il en est de même pour les contrées « ouvertes » à l’extérieur et par conséquent ayant subi ou subissant encore les influences linguistiques étrangères ou alors dans des régions caractérisées par la complexité de leur situation linguistique. C’est particulièrement le cas de la Tunisie, pays méditerranéen bien « ancré » dans l’histoire, mais aussi bien ouvert à l’étranger et subissant les soubresauts de la mondialisation, et manquant par ailleurs cruellement de politique toponymique. Tout ceci malgré l’intérêt que certains acteurs aux profils différents y prêtent depuis peu, intérêt matérialisé, entre autres manifestations scientifiques, par l’organisation de deux rencontres scientifiques par la Commission du GENUING en 2005 et d’une autre août 2008 à Tunis, lors du 35ème Congrès de l’UGI. Aussi, il s’agit dans le cadre de cette présentation générale de la situation de la transcription toponymique en Tunisie, dans un premier temps, de dresser l’état des lieux, de mettre en valeur les principales difficultés rencontrées en manipulant les noms géographiques dans leurs différentes transcriptions dans un second temps. En troisième lieu, il s’agit de proposer à l’officialisation, une liste-type de toponymes (exonymes et endonymes) que l’on est en droit d’avoir par exemple sur une carte générale de Tunisie à moyenne échelle. -

Jensen, Zoological Museum, Natural History Museum of Denmark, Universitetsparken 15, 2100 København Ø, Denmark. Phone: +45 353-21083, E-mail: [email protected] Bibliographical reference – how to cite this fact sheet: Jensen, Kathe R. (2010): NOBANIS – Invasive Alien Species Fact Sheet – Platorchestia platensis – From: Identification key to marine invasive species in Nordic waters – NOBANIS www.nobanis.org, Date of access x/x/201x. Species description Species name Platorchestia platensis, Krøyer, 1845 – a beachflea Synonyms Orchestia platensis Krøyer, 1845 Common names No common names in use in Europe. Family Talitridae. These have the first antennae shorter than the second ones, 7 separate thoracic segments (pereonites), gnathopods 1 and 2 sexually dimorphic (larger in males), subchelate and gnathopod 1 usually much smaller than gnathopod 2, a.o. (see http://www.crustacea.net/crustace/amphipoda/www/talitrid.htm ) Taxonomic notes The type material from Uruguay is in the ZMUC (Lectotype: ZMUC CRU8221 ♂; Paralectotypes: ZMUC CRU7803 ♂ and ♀) and has been re-examined by Serejo (2004) and Serejo & Lowry (2008). They cast some doubt on whether European material is actually identical to the Uruguayan material. Platorchestia platensis has been described as a cosmopolitan species, but more recent studies have separated a number of “sibling species”, e.g., P. monodi Mateus, Mateus & Afonso, 1986 from the Azores, Madeira, Guadeloupe (West Indies), Ascension Island, Florida, South Carolina and Israel (Stock, 1996), P. ashmoleorum Stock, 1996 from St. Helena Island and P. paraplatensis Serejo & Lowry, 2008 from Western Australia.
