ABSTRACT We present the results of taxonomic and ecological analyses of benthic polychaetes obtained during the CIMAR 11 Fjords. Samples were obtained using a box-corer, between Seno Reloncaví (41°40’ S) and Golfo Corcovado (43° 43’ S), in the inner seas of the Magellanic fjords from southeastern Pacific coast of Chile, between 16 and 357 m depth. We collected a total of 1,608 specimens of polychaetes belonging to 7 clades, 30 families and 57 species. The functional groups which presented the greatest abundances were surface deposit-feeders corresponding to 41% of the total, and omnivores and/or carnivores corresponding to 27%. The specific diversity values oscillated between 0.71 and 2.43. Berger-Parker dominance values oscillated between 0.18 and 0.86, reflecting in general a negative relationship with increasing species number in the samples. The most abundant species were Capitella capitata which accounted for 15.92% of all samples, followed by Maldane chilensis with 10%, and Eranno chilensis comprising 9.3% of the total abundance. The species Amphicteis chilensis, Glycinde armata, Prionospio orensanzi and Thelepus plagiostoma were distributed between 16 to 357 m depth; 16 species were collected in a single depth. These results raise the total number of benthic polychaetes recorded between Seno Reloncaví and Golfo Corcova- do to 200 species.

Day. However, 50 years after the publication of his Monograph of the Polychaeta of southern Africa, it is necessary to reconsider the identity of the Cirratulidae due to changes in the diagnostic characters and new approaches to the taxonomy of the group to corroborate the status of cosmopolitan species in this region.

  • Phylogenetics of Acrocirridae and Flabelligeridae (Cirratuliformia, Annelida)
    Zoologica Scripta Phylogenetics of Acrocirridae and Flabelligeridae (Cirratuliformia, Annelida) KAREN J. OSBORN &GREG W. ROUSE Submitted: 26 July 2010 Osborn, K. J. & Rouse, G. W. (2010). Phylogenetics of Acrocirridae and Flabelligeridae Accepted: 5 October 2010 (Cirratuliformia, Annelida). — Zoologica Scripta, 40, 204–219. doi:10.1111/j.1463-6409.2010.00460.x When seven deep-sea, swimming cirratuliforms were recently discovered, the need for a thorough phylogenetic hypothesis for Cirratuliformia was clear. Here, we provide a robust phylogenetic hypothesis for the relationships within Acrocirridae and increase the taxon sampling and resolution within Flabelligeridae based on both molecular (18S, 28S, 16S, COI and CytB) and morphological data. Data partitions were analyzed separately and in combination. Acrocirridae and Flabelligeridae were reciprocally monophyletic sister groups when rooted by cirratulids. The seven recently discovered species form a clade within Acrocirridae and will be designated as four genera based on phylogenetic relationships and apomorphies. A revised diagnosis is provided for Swima, restricting the genus to three spe- cies distinguished by a thick gelatinous sheath, transparent body, simple nuchal organs, a single medial subulate branchia, and four pair of small segmental branchiae modified as elliptical, bioluminescent sacs. Helmetophorus and Chauvinelia are maintained as separate genera based on morphological differences. Evidence for flabelligerid branchiae being seg- mental is provided, the papillae on segment two of most acrocirrids is confirmed to be the nephridiopores, and scanning electron microscopy is used to examine acrocirrid spinous chaetae in comparison with flabelligerid segmented chaetae.

Mohamed S. Barbary Zoology Department, Faculty of Science, Zagazig University Key words: sperm morphology, spermatogenesis, tube worm, Pomatoleios, Suez Bay. ABSTRACT he mature sperm morphology and spermatogenesis ultrastructure T have been fully described in Pomatoleios krassii, which is a spirobranchian polychoaete attached to rocks, wrecked boats, rods and hard substrates at some polluted sites on Suez Bay coast. Sperms develop in the coelom as free-floating plasmodial cells. At the end of spermatogenesis, mature sperms float freely in the coelom. The spermatogonia are relatively large in size (13 µ in diameter). The spermatozoon of the present species differs from that of other polychaete species by having a large head (6 µ in length) formed of rounded nucleus and large acrosome which forms a large curved terminal cap on the nucleus. This may be an indication that fertilization occurs by some mechanisms that limit exposure of such fragile gametes to any possiple pollution. Meanwhile, female of P.kraussii protects its eggs with a jelly mass attached to the branchial crown, and the sperm is required to penetrate the matrix of egg mass. The large pair of mitochondria (2 µ in diameter) and presence of two pairs of proximal and distal centrioles which are not recorded so for in previous studies, as well as the long tail may be correlated with a characteristic movement of the sperm to reach female branchial crown, where the egg masses are found.

Since polychaetes are a crucial, basic part of marine food webs, their ecological function and contribution to marine ecosystems are of significant importance for the ecosystem services from these environments, e.g. the fishing industry. This study investigates the abundance and ecological function of polychaetes in different ecosystems. Sampling locations are the intertidal area of Huangcuo (sandy beach and rocky shore), Xiatanwei mangrove plantation and the inner lake of Yundang Lagoon, in or close to Xiamen, Fujian province. A total of 20 species of polychaetes were found, with a great majority found in the Xiatanwei mangrove area. By studying the head structure of the polychaetes in the samples, the food type of each species can be predicted. From the food types of all present polychaetes, the polychaetes contribution to the food web of the sampling location can be estimated. The small number of species found at some of the sampling locations together with too little information about the food webs make it hard to draw any conclusions about the significance of polychaetes at the studied locations.

Introduction: The taxonomy of Cirratulidae is not easy due to the diagnostic characters currently accepted change through ontogeny, in some cases, there are even difficulties to separate juveniles from adults. Among the Cirratulus species cited, described and considered as valid for Argentina are Cirratulus jucundus (Kinberg, 1866), Cirratulus patagonicus (Kinberg, 1866) and Cirratulus mianzanii Saracho Bottero, Elías & Magalhães, 2017. Objetive: This study made a revision of Cirratulus includes material deposited in the Museo de Ciencias Naturales de La Plata (MLP) and specimens collected privately by J.M. Orensanz that was donated to the laboratory of Bioindicadores Bentónicos of the National University of Mar del Plata. Methods: The specimens were examined with optical equipment (microscope and stereomicroscope) and also by a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results: A complete examination of the material, revealed a higher number of spe- cies than those already mentioned. In the present work, three new species are described from the intertidal and subtidal areas of the Argentine continental shelf: Cirratulus orensanzii n. sp.; Cirratulus knipovichana n. sp. and Cirratulus alfonsinae n.

ZooKeys 806: 1–15. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.806.27436 Abstract A new cirratulid species, Timarete posteria sp. n., is described from the intertidal habitats of the east- ern coast of South Korea. The new species is closely related toTimarete luxuriosa (Moore, 1904) from southern California based on morphological similarity of the branchial and tentacular filaments and the noto- and neuropodial spines. However, T. posteria sp. n. differs from the latter based on the following characteristics: 1) evenly divided peristomium into three annulations; 2) 2–4 neuropodial spines originat- ing in the posterior chaetigers alternated by a few capillaries; and 3) complete shift in branchial filaments located about one-third between the notopodium and the dorsal midline. The new species has a methyl green staining pattern (MGSP) distinct from other Timarete species.

Very high biodiversity of Chilean Patagonia species was recorded associated with aquaculture centres with Cirratulidae, Spionidae and Paraonidae families Aquaculture being the most diverse and abundant families. The spatial distribution of polychaete trophic groups was the best Seabed pollution descriptor for detecting changes on the benthos. Surface and subsurface deposit-feeding species dominated the Feeding modes sites closest to the rafts cages, highlighting Capitella capitata and Cirratulus cirratus as opportunistic species. While Capitella capitata Cirratulus cirratus replacement and species succession were observed with increasing presence of carnivores and omnivores in sites further away from the salmon cages and experiencing less impact. Analyses based on the distance of feeding modes and ecological groups from the disturbance source were better indicators of the impact that the traditional community approach or sediment biogeochemistry. Therefore, functional traits studies should always be considered on environmental assessments of benthic systems impacted by aquaculture.
