  • 68 Guide to Crustacea
    68 Guide to Crustacea. The arrow indicates the course of the respiratory current, which, however, may sometimes be temporarily reversed, especially in burrowing species. The typical members of the family Portunidae (Swimming FIG. 46. Pseudocarcinus gigas, from Tasmania. The carapace of this specimen is just over a foot in width. [Above Wall-cases Nos. 5 and 6.] Crabs) may be recognised by the flattened, paddle-shaped, last pair of legs. Two British species of the genus Portunus are exhibited : the colours of P. depurator have been carefully copied from a living individual, and the specimen is mounted on a sample Decapoda—Brachyura. 69 of the shell-gravel on which it was actually caught. The large Neptunus pelagicus is the commonest edible Crab in many parts of the East. The Common Shore Crab, Carcinus maenas, is also referred to this family, although the paddle-shape of the last legs is not so marked as in the more typical Portunidae. Podophthalmus vigil (Fig. 47) is remarkable for the great length of the eye-stalks, which is quite unusual among the Cyclometopa, and gives this Crab a curious likeness to the genus Macrophthalmus among the Ocypodidae (see Table-case No. 16). The resemblance, however, is quite superficial, for in this case FIG. 47. Podophthalmus vigil (reduced). [Table-case No. 15.] it is the first of the two segments of the eye-stalk which is elongated, while in Macrophthalmus it is the second. The genus Platyonychus, of which a group of specimens is mounted in Wall-case No. 5, also belongs to this family.

Specimens were divided into two groups based on the number of elongated dorsal fin rays on the top of the head: Cynoglossidae sp. A was defined as having two elongated dorsal fin rays, while Cynoglossidae sp. B possessed a single elongated dorsal fin ray. One specimen of Cynoglossidae sp. A, a post-larva with a notochord length (NL) of 5.8 mm was thought to be a Cynoglossus joyneri larva based on the presence of 115 dorsal pterogiophores, 85 anal pterogiophores, and 50 myomeres. Two specimens of Cynoglossidae sp. B, a 4.1 mm NL larva and a 11.3 mm NL juvenile, were thought to be Cynoglossus abbreviatus based on the presence of yolk in the former and 133 dorsal fin rays, 105 anal fin rays, and 63 myomeres in the latter. To test this morphology-based identification, molecular analysis was conducted using 419-422 bp of mitochondrial DNA 16S rRNA. Cynoglossidae sp. A was clearly matched to a Cynoglossus joyneri adult (d=0.000) and Cynoglossidae sp. B clustered closely with Cynoglossus abbreviatus adults (d=0.002).

  • First Record of Dromia Neogenica Müller, 1979 (Decapoda, Brachyura, Dromiidae) from Neogene Strata in the Southern North Sea Basin
    FIRST RECORD OF DROMIA NEOGENICA MÜLLER, 1979 (DECAPODA, BRACHYURA, DROMIIDAE) FROM NEOGENE STRATA IN THE SOUTHERN NORTH SEA BASIN BY RENÉ H.B. FRAAIJE1,4), BARRY W.M. VAN BAKEL1,2,5) and JOHN W.M. JAGT3,6) 1) Oertijdmuseum De Groene Poort, Bosscheweg 80, NL-5283 Boxtel, The Netherlands 2) Nederlands Centrum voor Biodiversiteit (Naturalis), P.O. Box 9517, NL-2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands 3) Natuurhistorisch Museum Maastricht, de Bosquetplein 6-7, NL-6211 KJ Maastricht, The Netherlands ABSTRACT The sponge crab Dromia neogenica Müller, 1979 (Dromiidae) is recorded for the first time from strata of Neogene (late Miocene-early Pliocene) age in the southern North Sea Basin, on the basis of two concretion-preserved carapaces from Bemmel (north of Nijmegen, province of Gelderland, The Netherlands). The presence of this species, which was previously known from the middle-upper Miocene of Hungary and Algeria, suggests relatively higher seawater temperatures in the North Sea during the late Miocene-early Pliocene. Morphological differences (extraorbital and anterolateral teeth, development of cervical and branchiocardiac grooves) between D. neogenica and extant D. personata (Linnaeus, 1758) are relatively minor. This observation, coupled with the absence of the former species in mid-Pliocene and younger strata, and with the robust record of the latter in the mid-Pliocene to upper Pleistocene of Italy, would indicate that D. neogenica and D. personata are closely related, and probably represent the same lineage. RÉSUMÉ La dromie éponge Dromia neogenica Müller, 1979 (Dromiidae) est signalée pour la premiére fois dans les strates du Néogène (fin du Miocène-début du Pliocène) du sud du bassin de la mer du Nord.

Looking into processes and mechanisms of the dynamic sh community through detailed quantitative analyses contributes to e ective conservation and management of shery resources. The Min estuary plays an important role in maintaining sheries in southeastern coastal China, therefore the sh community in the brackish area was investigated and analyzed in this study. A total of 127 DOI: 10.1515/ohs-2020-0004 species belonging to 91 genera, 49 families and 14 orders Category: Original research paper were sampled in 2015. Eight indices re ecting four aspects of sh communities were determined, i.e. species richness, Received: May 5, 2019 species evenness, heterogeneity and taxonomy. Di erences Accepted: August 21, 2019 between the indices were nonsigni cant, suggesting that the use of a single diversity descriptor could not provide a full explanation. Nine dominant species in the Min estuary showed seasonal turnover by rational use of resources and Jimei University, 185 Yinjiang Rd., co-occurring species showed correspondingly adequate 361021 Xiamen, China habitat preferences and feeding habits to avoid competition. The species Harpadon nehereus occurred as the dominant species in three seasons except spring. High values of niche overlap among common or rare species and lower values of niche overlap among all dominant species e ectively brought the diversity of the sh community into a state of equilibrium.
