Taxonomic Study of Freshwater Bryozoans from Jeju Island, Korea
Journal of Species Research 6(Special Edition):129-134, 2017 Taxonomic study of freshwater bryozoans from Jeju Island, Korea Hyun Sook Chae1, Hyun Jong Kil2 and Ji Eun Seo3,* 1Department of Food-Biotechnology, Woosuk University, Jeonbuk 55338, Republic of Korea 2Animal Resources Division, National Institute of Biological Resources, Incheon 22689, Republic of Korea 3Department of Eco-Biological Science, Woosuk University, Chungbuk 27841, Republic of Korea *Correspondent: [email protected] This study aims to investigate the freshwater bryozoans of Jeju Island off the Korean Peninsula for the first time. To date, twelve species has been reported from the mainland of Korea. However, no study of freshwater bryozoans has ever been conducted on Korean islands including Jeju Island, which is the largest island in Korea. Five species in three genera Fredericella, Plumatella and Stephanella, from Jeju Island are described. Of which, three species, Fredericella indica, Plumatella mukaii and P. rugosa, are new records of Korean bryozoan fauna. As a result of this study, the number of identified Korean freshwater bryozoans is now 15 species, including 12 phylactolaemates and three gymnolaemates.

Floatoblasts were collected by examining floating water, and the Stenolaemata and Gymnolaemata, which debris that had accumulated downwind or downstream are found mostly in marine habitat. -
Bryozoan Studies 2019
BRYOZOAN STUDIES 2019 Edited by Patrick Wyse Jackson & Kamil Zágoršek Czech Geological Survey 1 BRYOZOAN STUDIES 2019 2 Dedication This volume is dedicated with deep gratitude to Paul Taylor. Throughout his career Paul has worked at the Natural History Museum, London which he joined soon after completing post-doctoral studies in Swansea which in turn followed his completion of a PhD in Durham. Paul’s research interests are polymatic within the sphere of bryozoology – he has studied fossil bryozoans from all of the geological periods, and modern bryozoans from all oceanic basins. His interests include taxonomy, biodiversity, skeletal structure, ecology, evolution, history to name a few subject areas; in fact there are probably none in bryozoology that have not been the subject of his many publications. His office in the Natural History Museum quickly became a magnet for visiting bryozoological colleagues whom he always welcomed: he has always been highly encouraging of the research efforts of others, quick to collaborate, and generous with advice and information. A long-standing member of the International Bryozoology Association, Paul presided over the conference held in Boone in 2007. 3 BRYOZOAN STUDIES 2019 Contents Kamil Zágoršek and Patrick N.

STUDIES ON FRESH-WATER BRYOZOA, XVII. MICHIGAN BRYOZOA MARY D. ROGICK, College of New Roche lie, New Rochelle, N. Y. AND HENRY VAN DER SCHALIE, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Mich. INTRODUCTION The purpose of the present study is to record the occurrence of several bryozoan species from localities new to Michigan and other regions; to compile a list of the bryozoa previously recorded from Michigan; and to correct or revise the identifica- tion of some of the species collected long ago. Records published by various writers from 1882 through 1949 have reported the following bryozoa from different Michigan localities, sometimes under synonyms or outmoded names: Class ECTOPROCTA Order GYMNOLAEMATA * Family Paludicellidae 1. Paludicella articulata (Ehrenberg) 1831 ORDER PHYLACTOLAEMATA Family Cristatellidae 2. Cristatella mucedo Cuvier 1798 Family Fredericellidae 3. Fredericella sultana (Blumenbach) 1779 Family Lophopodidae 4. Pectinatella magnifica Leidy 1851 Family PRimatellidae 5. Hyalinella punctata (Hancock) 1850 6. Plumatella casmiana Oka 1907 7. Plumatella or bis per ma Kellicott 1882 8. Plumatella repens (Linnaeus) 1758 9. Plumatella repens var. coralloides (Allman) 1850 10. Plumatella repens var. emarginata (Allman) 1844 11. Stolella indica Annandale 1909 The recorded localities for the above list of bryozoa are named in Table I. The sixteen references from which the Table was compiled are on file with both authors and are not here reproduced. To the above listed species the present study adds the following two new Michigan records: Class ECTOPROCTA Family Plumatellidae Plumatella repens var. jugalis (Allman) 1850 Class ENTOPROCTA Family Urnatellidae Urnatella gracilis Leidy 1851 In addition to the Urnatella gracilis and the Plumatella repens jugalis three other bryozoa (Paludicella articulata, Plumatella casmiana and Plumatella repens var. -

We tabulate all known taxa chronologically, summarize stratigraphical and geographical distributions, and comment on the main morphological innovations that appeared in pre-Cenomanian times. Most early cheilo- stomes are classified in the suborder Malacostegina. Early cheilostomes were morphologically simple and low in diversity, but were geographically widespread. These features can be explained by the possession of a long-living planktotrophic larval stage, as in Recent malacostegans. -

Standardized Biological Field Sampling and Laboratory Methods for Assessing Fish and Macroinvertebrate Communities October 1, 1987 Revised September 30, 1989 Revised June 26, 2015 Ohio EPA Technical Report EAS/2015-06-01 Division of Surface Water Ecological Assessment Section Tech. Rept. EAS/2015-06-01 Biocriteria Manual Volume III June 26, 2015 NOTICE TO USERS The Ohio EPA incorporated biological criteria into the Ohio Water Quality Standards (WQS; Ohio Administrative Code 3745-1) regulations in February 1990 (effective May 1990). These criteria consist of numeric values for the Index of Biotic Integrity (IBI) and Modified Index of Well-Being (MIwb), both of which are based on fish assemblage data, and the Invertebrate Community Index (ICI), which is based on macroinvertebrate assemblage data. Criteria for each index are specified for each of Ohio's five ecoregions (as described by Omernik 1987), and are further organized by organism group, index, site type, and aquatic life use designation. These criteria, along with the existing chemical and whole effluent toxicity evaluation methods and criteria, figure prominently in the monitoring and assessment of Ohio’s surface water resources. Besides this document, the following documents support the use of biological criteria by outlining the rationale for using biological information, the methods by which the biocriteria were derived and calculated, and the process for evaluating results.

Individual Autozooidal Behaviour and Feeding in Marine Bryozoans
Individual autozooidal behaviour and feeding in marine bryozoans Natalia Nickolaevna Shunatova, Andrew Nickolaevitch Ostrovsky Shunatova NN, Ostrovsky AN. 2001. Individual autozooidal behaviour and feeding in marine SARSIA bryozoans. Sarsia 86:113-142. The article is devoted to individual behaviour of autozooids (mainly connected with feeding and cleaning) in 40 species and subspecies of marine bryozoans from the White Sea and the Barents Sea. We present comparative descriptions of the observations and for the first time describe some of autozooidal activities (e.g. cleaning of the colony surface by a reversal of tentacular ciliature beating, variants of testing-position, and particle capture and rejection). Non-contradictory aspects from the main hypotheses on bryozoan feeding have been used to create a model of feeding mechanism. Flick- ing activity in the absence of previous mechanical contact between tentacle and particle leads to the inference that polypides in some species can detect particles at some distance. The discussion deals with both normal and “spontaneous” reactions, as well as differences and similarities in autozooidal behaviour and their probable causes. Approaches to classification of the diversity of bryozoan behav- iour (functional and morphological) are considered. Behavioural reactions recorded are classified using a morphological approach based on the structure (tentacular ciliature, tentacles and entire polypide) performing the reaction. We suggest that polypide protrusion and retraction might be the basis of the origin of some other individual activities. Individual autozooidal behaviour is considered to be a flexible and sensitive system of reactions in which the activities can be performed in different combinations and successions and can be switched depending on the situation. -
