Deep-Water Decapod Crustacea from Eastern Australia: Lobsters of the Families Nephropidae, Palinuridae, Polychelidae and Scyllaridae
Records of the Australian Museum (1995) Vo!. 47: 231-263. ISSN 0067-1975 Deep-water Decapod Crustacea from Eastern Australia: Lobsters of the Families Nephropidae, Palinuridae, Polychelidae and Scyllaridae D.J.G. GRIFFIN & H.E. STODDART Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia ABSTRACT. Twenty-three species of deep-water lobsters in the families Nephropidae, Palinuridae, Polychelidae and Scyllaridae are recorded from the continental shelf and slope off eastern Australia. Ten species and two genera have not been previously recorded from Australia. These are Acanthacaris tenuimana, Projasus parkeri, Polycheles baccatus, P. euthrix, P. granulatus, Stereomastis andamanensis, S. helleri, S. sculpta, S. suhmi and Willemoesia bonaspei. The deep water lobster fauna of eastern Australia is compared with those of other Indo-Pacific areas. A key is given to all deep-water lobster species recorded from Australian waters.

This process aims to achieve the Good Environmental Status (GES) through the elaborated 11 Ecological Objectives and their respective common indicators. Since 2008, Contracting Parties to the Barcelona Convention have adopted the EcAp and agreed on a roadmap for its implementation. First phases of the EcAp process led to the accomplishment of 5 steps of the scheduled 7-steps process such as: 1) Definition of an Ecological Vision for the Mediterranean; 2) Setting common Mediterranean strategic goals; 3) Identification of an important ecosystem properties and assessment of ecological status and pressures; 4) Development of a set of ecological objectives corresponding to the Vision and strategic goals; and 5) Derivation of operational objectives with indicators and target levels. -

Invasive Species Specialist Group of the IUCN Species Survival Commission ALIENS Issue Number 27, 2008 FROM THE NEW CHAIR OF ISSG – Piero GENOVESI As you know, Mick Clout has recently decided to step back from the Chair of ISSG, and Simon Stuart – elected Chair of IUCN SSC at last WCC in Barcelona - has invited me to take this role. I cannot say how challenging it is to take this role after Mick, who is the “father” of ISSG and - as Chair of the group - has been incredibly active globally in conservation in the last decades. Mick was in fact the founder of ISSG in 1993, and since then he has been the main actor of the success of the group - one of the most active and influential within the Species Survival Commission. In particular by making the GISD portal the most widely used tool on alien species, by organising keystone meetings, by providing scientific and policy advice to global programs such as GISP, by creating synergies with programs – among others - on protected areas and islands. But beyond the important results gathered within the IUCN world, Mick’s constant work and commitment have contributed substantially to the advances we have seen in the last decade in the knowledge and awareness on biological invasions. Mick’s role was acknowledged by the recent attribution of the Peter Scott Award , which was awarded in the WCC meeting at Barcelona in October 2008. So, I believe it is clear to you all that taking Mick’s role is for me a tremendous challenge, and I hope with your advice and support to be a good Chair of the group. -
