  • Polychaetes Associated with a Tropical Ocean Outfall: Synthesis of a Biomonitoring Program Off O'ahu, Hawai'f
    Polychaetes Associated with a Tropical Ocean Outfall: Synthesis ofa Biomonitoring Program off O'ahu, Hawai'F J. H. Bailey-Brock,2,3,4,5 B. Paavo,3,4 B. M. Barrett,3,4 and J. Dreyer3,4 Abstract: A comparison of benthic polychaete communities off the Sand Island Wastewater Outfall was undertaken to recognize organic enrichment indicator species for Hawaiian waters. Primary-treatment sewage is discharged off the south shore of O'ahu at 70 m depth. A historical data set spanning 9 yr for seven sites at 70 m and two recent studies at 20, 50, and 100 m depths were analyzed. Geochemical data did not support the assumption that the outfall is an im­ portant source of organic enrichment in nutrient-poor sandy sediments within oligotrophic tropical waters. Five polychaete species, however, appeared partic­ ularly sensitive, positively or negatively, to environmental conditions near the outfall. Neanthes arenaceodentata (Nereididae) and Ophryotrocha adherens (Dor­ villeidae) have been dominant at sites within the outfall's zone of initial dilution (ZID). Since 1993, N arenaceodentata has virtually disappeared, and 0. adherens concurrently became abundant and continued to flourish at ZID sites. Well­ known indicators within the Capitella capitata complex (Capitellidae) were pres­ ent at ZID and control (far field) sites though their ZID abundance was greater. Two sabellids, Euchone sp. Band Augeneriella dubia were inversely distributed, the smaller Euchone sp. B at far field sites and larger A. dubia within ZID sta­ tions. The former was most likely restricted to a greater proportion offine sed­ iment particles at two far field sites.

E-mail: [email protected] 2 Conservation International Indonesia Marine Program. Jl. Dr. Muwardi No. 17, Renon, Denpasar 80235 Indonesia. Abstract A checklist of shallow (to 60 m depth) reef fishes is provided for the Bird’s Head Peninsula region of West Papua, Indonesia. The area, which occupies the extreme western end of New Guinea, contains the world’s most diverse assemblage of coral reef fishes. The current checklist, which includes both historical records and recent survey results, includes 1,511 species in 451 genera and 111 families. Respective species totals for the three main coral reef areas – Raja Ampat Islands, Fakfak-Kaimana coast, and Cenderawasih Bay – are 1320, 995, and 877. In addition to its extraordinary species diversity, the region exhibits a remarkable level of endemism considering its relatively small area. A total of 26 species in 14 families are currently considered to be confined to the region. Introduction and finally a complex geologic past highlighted The region consisting of eastern Indonesia, East by shifting island arcs, oceanic plate collisions, Timor, Sabah, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, and widely fluctuating sea levels (Polhemus and the Solomon Islands is the global centre of 2007). reef fish diversity (Allen 2008).

  • Ringiculid Bubble Snails Recovered As the Sister Group to Sea Slugs
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Ringiculid bubble snails recovered as the sister group to sea slugs (Nudipleura) Received: 13 May 2016 Yasunori Kano1, Bastian Brenzinger2,3, Alexander Nützel4, Nerida G. Wilson5 & Accepted: 08 July 2016 Michael Schrödl2,3 Published: 08 August 2016 Euthyneuran gastropods represent one of the most diverse lineages in Mollusca (with over 30,000 species), play significant ecological roles in aquatic and terrestrial environments and affect many aspects of human life. However, our understanding of their evolutionary relationships remains incomplete due to missing data for key phylogenetic lineages. The present study integrates such a neglected, ancient snail family Ringiculidae into a molecular systematics of Euthyneura for the first time, and is supplemented by the first microanatomical data. Surprisingly, both molecular and morphological features present compelling evidence for the common ancestry of ringiculid snails with the highly dissimilar Nudipleura—the most species-rich and well-known taxon of sea slugs (nudibranchs and pleurobranchoids). A new taxon name Ringipleura is proposed here for these long-lost sisters, as one of three major euthyneuran clades with late Palaeozoic origins, along with Acteonacea (Acteonoidea + Rissoelloidea) and Tectipleura (Euopisthobranchia + Panpulmonata). The early Euthyneura are suggested to be at least temporary burrowers with a characteristic ‘bubble’ shell, hypertrophied foot and headshield as exemplified by many extant subtaxa with an infaunal mode of life, while the expansion of the mantle might have triggered the explosive Mesozoic radiation of the clade into diverse ecological niches. The traditional gastropod subclass Euthyneura is a highly diverse clade of snails and slugs with at least 30,000 living species1,2.

    BASTERIA, 60: 183-193, 1996 Central Tyrrhenian sea Mollusca: XI. of Callostracon Description tyrrhenicum sp. nov. (Gastropoda, Acteonidae) and remarks on the other Mediterranean species of the family Acteonidae d’Orbigny, 1835 Carlo Smriglio Via di Valle Aurelia 134, 1-00167 Rome, Italy & Paolo Mariottini Dipartimento di Biologia, Terza Universita degli Studi di Roma, Via Ostiense 173, 1-00154 Rome, Italy A new acteonid species, collected in the Central Tyrrhenian Sea, is here described. It is placed in Callostracon and named C. Hamlin, 1884, tyrrhenicum. The description is based on shell morpho- logyonly. Remarks on the four bathyal and the three infralittoral species ofthe familyActeonidae known from the Mediterranean Sea, are also featured. Key-words: Gastropoda, Opisthobranchia, Acteonidae, Callostracon, taxonomy, bathyal fauna, Central Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy. INTRODUCTION In the framework of carried an investigation out over the past decade, we continue to characterize the bathyal faunal assemblages from the Central Tyrrhenian Sea, off the Latial coast (Italy) (Smriglio et al., 1987, 1990, 1992, 1993). In particular, we are interested in the molluscan fauna occurring in the deep-sea coral (biocoenose des and des coraux blancs, CB) muddy-bathyal (biocoenose vases bathyales, VB) commu- nities & of this In this we describe of (Peres Picard, 1964) area. paper a new species acteonid, Callostracon tyrrhenicum, from material dredged in a deep-sea coral bank off the coast. Latial Among the molluscan fauna associated with C. tyrrhenicum, we have iden- tified four which bathyal acteonids, we think worth reporting: Acteon monterosatoi Crenilabium Dautzenberg, 1889, exile (Jeffreys, 1870, ex Forbes ms.), Japonacteon pusillus and Liocarenus (McGillavray, 1843), globulinus (Forbes, 1844).

In addition, monophyly of most or all capitellid genera was questionable, as some diagnostic characters vary ontogenetically within individuals. We tested the monophyly of Capitellidae and eight capitellid genera using phyloge- netic analyses of combined 18S, 28S, H3, and COI gene sequences from 36 putative capitellid spe- cies. In our trees, Capitellidae formed a monophyletic sister group to Echiura, and Capitella was also monophyletic, separated by a long branch from other capitellids. Well-supported clades each containing representatives of different genera, or containing a subset of species within a genus, indicated that Barantolla, Heteromastus, and Notomastus are likely not monophyletic. We mapped three morphological characters traditionally used to define capitellid genera (head width relative to width of first segment, number of thoracic segments, and number of segments with capillary chae- tae) onto our tree.
