    Role of Reef-Building, Ecosystem Engineering Polychaetes in Shallow Water Ecosystems

    diversity Review Role of Reef-Building, Ecosystem Engineering Polychaetes in Shallow Water Ecosystems Martín Bruschetti 1,2 1 Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras (IIMyC)-CONICET, Mar del Plata 7600, Argentina; [email protected] 2 Laboratorio de Ecología, Universidad Nacional de Mar del Plata, FCEyN, Laboratorio de Ecología 7600, Argentina Received: 15 June 2019; Accepted: 15 September 2019; Published: 17 September 2019 Abstract: Although the effect of ecosystem engineers in structuring communities is common in several systems, it is seldom as evident as in shallow marine soft-bottoms. These systems lack abiotic three-dimensional structures but host biogenic structures that play critical roles in controlling abiotic conditions and resources. Here I review how reef-building polychaetes (RBP) engineer their environment and affect habitat quality, thus regulating community structure, ecosystem functioning, and the provision of ecosystem services in shallow waters. The analysis focuses on different engineering mechanisms, such as hard substrate production, effects on hydrodynamics, and sediment transport, and impacts mediated by filter feeding and biodeposition. Finally, I deal with landscape-level topographic alteration by RBP. In conclusion, RBP have positive impacts on diversity and abundance of many species mediated by the structure of the reef. Additionally, by feeding on phytoplankton and decreasing water turbidity, RBP can control primary production, increase light penetration, and might alleviate the effects of eutrophication

    López and Richter Helgol Mar Res (2017) 71:19 DOI 10.1186/s10152-017-0499-6 Helgoland Marine Research ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Non‑indigenous species (NIS) of polychaetes (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts of the Iberian Peninsula: an annotated checklist E. López* and A. Richter Abstract This study provides an updated catalogue of non-indigenous species (NIS) of polychaetes reported from the conti- nental coasts of the Iberian Peninsula based on the available literature. A list of 23 introduced species were regarded as established and other 11 were reported as casual, with 11 established and nine casual NIS in the Atlantic coast of the studied area and 14 established species and seven casual ones in the Mediterranean side. The most frequent way of transport was shipping (ballast water or hull fouling), which according to literature likely accounted for the intro- ductions of 14 established species and for the presence of another casual one. To a much lesser extent aquaculture (three established and two casual species) and bait importation (one established species) were also recorded, but for a large number of species the translocation pathway was unknown. About 25% of the reported NIS originated in the Warm Western Atlantic region, followed by the Tropical Indo West-Pacifc region (18%) and the Warm Eastern Atlantic (12%). In the Mediterranean coast of the Iberian Peninsula, nearly all the reported NIS originated from warm or tropi- cal regions, but less than half of the species recorded from the Atlantic side were native of these areas. The efects of these introductions in native marine fauna are largely unknown, except for one species (Ficopomatus enigmaticus) which was reported to cause serious environmental impacts.

Elsewhere, this species is a major fouling organism that can have significant negative ecological and economic effects. Comprehensive studies will be necessary to determine the extent of the distribution of A.

Lecce-Monteroni 73100 Lecce RESEARCH ARTICLE ITALY Abstract 1 - Lagoons are ecotones between freshwater, marine and terrestrial biotopes, characterized by internal ecosystem heterogeneity, due to patchy spatial and temporal distribution of biotic and abiotic components, and inter-ecosystem heterogeneity, due to the various terrestrial-freshwater and freshwater-marine interfaces. 2 - Here, we carried out an analysis of environmental heterogeneity and benthic macro-invertebrate guilds in a sample of 26 Italian lagoons based on literature produced over a 25 year period.. 3 - In all, 944 taxonomic units, belonging to 13 phyla, 106 orders and 343 families, were recorded. Most species had a very restricted geographic distribution range. 75% of the macroinvertebrate taxa were observed in less than three of the twenty-six lagoons considered. 4 - Similarity among macroinvertebrate guilds in lagoon ecosystems was remarkably low, ranging from 10.5%±7.5% to 34.2%±14.4% depending on the level of taxonomic resolution. 5 - Taxonomic heterogeneity was due to both differences in species richness and to differences in species composition: width of seaward outlet, lagoon surface area and water salinity were the most important factors affecting species richness, together accounting for up to 75% of observed inter-lagoon heterogeneity, while distance between lagoons was the most significant factor affecting similarity of species composition.

    A5.61A Biogenic Reefs of Ficopomatus Enigmaticus on Sheltered Upper Infralittoral Rock

    European Red List of Habitats - Marine: Black Sea Habitat Group A5.61a Biogenic reefs of Ficopomatus enigmaticus on sheltered upper infralittoral rock Summary The habitat is present throughout the Black Sea in sheltered waters, with low energy and preferably variable salinity. It is found mainly in harbours, marinas, inlets and lagoons. It is not present in the Sea of Marmara. First records of the habitat are present for all Black Sea countries. All first records occurred during the historic period (pre 1965). Quantitative data for current distribution is available for all countries except Turkey. There are no current records of this habitat from Turkey, but the species has been recorded in 1954. This may be due data gaps. The dates of first records and current distribution data show a clear expansion of this bioengineering species in the Black Sea during the historic period. Synthesis In the EU 28 the habitat type is assessed as Least Concern under Criterion A1, A2a, A2b, A3, B and C/D1. For criteria A1, A2a, A2b and A3 the habitat has expanded its range. This is based in quantitative data. For criteria B the EOO and AOO meet threatened threshold criteria but there are no continuing declines or threatening processes. For criteria C/D1 there has not been a fairly substantial reduction in quality. This is based on expert opinion. In the EU 28+ the habitat type is assessed as Least Concern under Criterion A1, A2a, A2b, A3, B and C/D1. For criteria A1, A2a, A2b and A3 the habitat has expanded its range.
