El objetivo de esta tesis fue recopilar y analizar la información histórica sobre riqueza específica de hidrozoos, poliquetos, crustáceos decápodos y equinodermos en el Atlántico Sudoccidental entre los 34º y 56º S, a fin de sintetizar el estado de conocimiento actual, identificar patrones de distribución y poner a prueba la validez del esquema zoogeográfico establecido para el área de estudio. Se utilizaron análisis multivariados para analizar cambios en la riqueza y composición específica a través de gradientes latitudinales y batimétricos, así como también para reconocer y diferenciar las asociaciones existentes. La riqueza de especies registrada fue elevada para todos los grupos y en todos los casos un cierto número de especies fueron consideradas de validez o registro dudoso, producto de la discontinuidad espacio-temporal de sus registros. La riqueza en equinodermos y poliquetos se incrementa significativamente hacia latitudes mayores, lo cual podría estar relacionando con la alta diversidad de dichos grupos en la Región Antártica. Para los hidroides dicha correlación no fue significativa. Sin embargo, se identificaron áreas donde la riqueza presenta picos importantes que parecerían estar relacionados con la presencia de fondos y sustratos adecuados para su exitoso asentamiento. Los crustáceos decápodos no exhibieron ningún tipo de patrón en relación a la latitud. No obstante, otros autores han citado para este grupo un patrón de disminución en la riqueza de especies hacia latitudes altas. Se confirmó con los cuatro grupos estudiados, el esquema biogeográfico establecido para el área de estudio, distinguiendo dos conjuntos faunísticos bien diferenciados: Provincia Magallánica y Provincia Argentina. Los resultados indican que la Provincia Argentina incluiría al Golfo San Jorge (45º- 47º S). 1 ___________________________________________________________________________ Abstract _________________________________________________________________________ Benthic invertebrates in the Argentine Sea: current state of knowledge, species richness and distribution patterns The assessment of biodiversity is important to understand the ecological patterns of species distribution as well as the functioning of ecosystems, and to manage the use of marine resources and conservation. The aim of this thesis was to compile and analyse available historical information on hydroids, polychaetes, decapod crustaceans and echinoderms in the South western Atlantic Ocean, between 34º and 56º S, in order to make a synthesis of present taxonomical knowledge, to identify patterns of geographical distribution assemblages and to test the validity of the current zoogeographic scheme established for the study area. Multivariate analysis was used to analyse the faunal composition through latitudinal and bathymetric gradients as well as for identifing different associations of benthic invertebrates. The species richness recorded was high for all groups and in all cases a certain number of species was considered of doubtful validity, consequence of the spatial-temporal discontinuity of their records. The species richness in echinoderms and polychaetes increases significantly towards higher latitudes, which could be related with the high diversity of these groups in the Antarctic Region. This correlation was not significant for hydroids, however, areas where the richness reached high values that could be related to the presence of suitable substrates for their successful settlement were identified. Decapod crustaceans did not exhibit any pattern in relation to latitude. Though, a pattern of decline in species richness at high latitudes has been cited for this group. The results confirmed the existence of two faunal associations that correspond to the traditional zoogeographic scheme established for the Argentine Sea: the Argentinean and Magellan Provinces. The results also indicate that the Argentinean Province includes San Jorge Gulf (45º - 47° S). 3 _________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________ Agradecimientos A mis directores, Claudia y Gabriel, quienes me dieron la posibilidad de realizar un doctorado.

SÁNCHEZ, DAPHNE G. FAUTIN his ancient phylum of mostly marine organisms is best known for its contribution to geomorphological features, forming thousands of square Tkilometres of coral reefs in warm tropical waters. Their fossil remains contribute to some limestones. Cnidarians are also significant components of the plankton, where large medusae – popularly called jellyfish – and colonial forms like Portuguese man-of-war and stringy siphonophores prey on other organisms including small fish. Some of these species are justly feared by humans for their stings, which in some cases can be fatal. Certainly, most New Zealanders will have encountered cnidarians when rambling along beaches and fossicking in rock pools where sea anemones and diminutive bushy hydroids abound. In New Zealand’s fiords and in deeper water on seamounts, black corals and branching gorgonians can form veritable trees five metres high or more. In contrast, inland inhabitants of continental landmasses who have never, or rarely, seen an ocean or visited a seashore can hardly be impressed with the Cnidaria as a phylum – freshwater cnidarians are relatively few, restricted to tiny hydras, the branching hydroid Cordylophora, and rare medusae. Worldwide, there are about 10,000 described species, with perhaps half as many again undescribed. All cnidarians have nettle cells known as nematocysts (or cnidae – from the Greek, knide, a nettle), extraordinarily complex structures that are effectively invaginated coiled tubes within a cell.

Analyses of past zooplankton samples from a long-term monitoring program suggest that this non-indigenous species has been present in the eastern English Channel at least since 2007.

This study is the first to report on the Received in revised form hydroids collected from these habitats in this area. Thirty-five species, including two 21 February 2008 species that are likely new to science, were identified from samples collected primarily Accepted 2 March 2008 by manned submersible during 2001-2005 from deep-water coral habitats off North Available online 13 March 2008 Carolina to east-central Florida. Eleven of the species had not been reported since the Keywords: 19th to mid-20th century. Ten species, and one family, the Rosalindidae, are Hydroids documented for the first time in the SEUS. Latitudinal ranges of 15 species are Deep-water corals extended, and the deepest records in the western North Atlantic for 10 species are Lophelia pertusa reported. A species accumulation curve illustrated that we continue to add to our Biogeography Reproduction knowledge of hydroid diversity in these habitats.
