The aim of this study was to assess the spatial variations in the copepod community abundance, and the biomass and production patterns of the three most abundant calanoid species in the SPSPA. Plankton samples were collected with a 300 µm mesh size net along four transects (north, east, south and west of the SPSPA), with four stations plotted in each transect. All transects exhibited a tendency toward a decrease in copepod density with increasing distance from the SPSPA, statistically proved in the North. Density varied from 3.33 to 182.18 ind.m-3, and differences were also found between the first perimeter (first circular distance band) and the others. The total biomass varied from 15.25 to 524.50 10-3 mg C m-3 and production from 1.19 to 22.04 10-3 mg C m-3d-1.

  • DOUBLE VISION by Peter Campus (1971, 18 Min., B/W, Sound) by John Minkowsky
    DOUBLE VISION by Peter Campus (1971, 18 min., b/w, sound) By John Minkowsky The following was originally issued as a Program Note to accompany the touring showcase, “The Moving Image State-wide: 13 Tapes by 8 Videomakers,” sponsored by the University-wide Committee on the Arts of the State University of New York system in September 1978, and curated by John Minkowsky, Video/Electronic Arts Programmer at Media Study/Buffalo. To human beings, the most familiar two-eyed or binocular visual system is that of human eyesight. As we observe a scene – a set of entities arranged in space – each eye acts like a camera, focusing a two-dimensional image on its retina or innermost surface. The difference in location of the eyes results in each retina perceiving a slightly different aspect of the same scene. In the processing of both retinal images at higher levels of the visual system – ultimately, the visual cortex of the brain – there emerges a single view of the scene, including the perception of depth or distance relationships. Tri-dimensional or stereoscopic vision is a distinctive characteristic of human binocularity. To refer to the human visual system as the most “familiar” binocular model, as I have done, is an understatement, for it is the system through which we directly experience the world and to which all our considerations of binocular vision must refer. It is also an overstatement because very few are aware of its workings. There are other two-eyed systems that exist in nature or can be imagined as conceptual constructs that do not necessarily result in the stereoscopic perception of depth.

  • Taxonomy, Biology and Phylogeny of Miraciidae (Copepoda: Harpacticoida)
    TAXONOMY, BIOLOGY AND PHYLOGENY OF MIRACIIDAE (COPEPODA: HARPACTICOIDA) Rony Huys & Ruth Böttger-Schnack SARSIA Huys, Rony & Ruth Böttger-Schnack 1994 12 30. Taxonomy, biology and phytogeny of Miraciidae (Copepoda: Harpacticoida). - Sarsia 79:207-283. Bergen. ISSN 0036-4827. The holoplanktonic family Miraciidae (Copepoda, Harpacticoida) is revised and a key to the four monotypic genera presented. Amended diagnoses are given for Miracia Dana, Oculosetella Dahl and Macrosetella A. Scott, based on complete redescriptions of their respective type species M. efferata Dana, 1849, O. gracilis (Dana, 1849) and M. gracilis (Dana, 1847). A fourth genus Distioculus gen. nov. is proposed to accommodate Miracia minor T. Scott, 1894. The occurrence of two size-morphs of M. gracilis in the Red Sea is discussed, and reliable distribution records of the problematic O. gracilis are compiled. The first nauplius of M. gracilis is described in detail and changes in the structure of the antennule, P2 endopod and caudal ramus during copepodid development are illustrated. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that Miracia is closest to the miraciid ancestor and placed Oculosetella-Macrosetella at the terminal branch of the cladogram. Various aspects of miraciid biology are reviewed, including reproduction, postembryonic development, verti­ cal and geographical distribution, bioluminescence, photoreception and their association with filamentous Cyanobacteria {Trichodesmium).

Orientador: Alvaro Esteves Migotto Co-orientador: Antonio Carlos Marques São Paulo 2007 ii RESUMO O Brasil possui uma extensão de costa marítima de mais de 9.200 km. Contudo, os componentes vivos presentes em suas águas costeiras e neríticas são parcamente conhecidos em termos taxonômicos, biogeográficos e ecológicos. Embora constitua um dos principais grupos de predadores pelágicos, seja abundante e de dimensões relativamente grandes, o plâncton gelatinoso é normalmente subestimado nos estudos de plâncton. A classe Hydrozoa é um dos grupos de invertebrados gelatinosos mais bem representados e comuns no plâncton. Dentre os trabalhos sobre hidromedusas, somente alguns abrangeram áreas extensas da plataforma continental brasileira, embora coleções oriundas de campanhas oceanográficas, como as realizadas pelo Instituto Oceanográfico da Universidade de São Paulo (IO-USP), estejam disponíveis para estudo. O objetivo do presente é inventariar as espécies de hidromedusas oriundas de duas campanhas oceanográficas realizadas pelo IO-USP na plataforma continental entre Cabo de Santa Marta Grande (SC) e Cabo Frio (RJ) (Plataforma Continental Sudeste - PCSE), nos anos de 1991 e 2001: Sardinha 1 e PADCT 2. A composição da fauna foi analisada quanto à diversidade de espécies e distribuição geográfica.

  • The Histology of Nanomia Bijuga (Hydrozoa: Siphonophora) SAMUEL H
    RESEARCH ARTICLE The Histology of Nanomia bijuga (Hydrozoa: Siphonophora) SAMUEL H. CHURCH*, STEFAN SIEBERT, PATHIKRIT BHATTACHARYYA, AND CASEY W. DUNN Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island ABSTRACT The siphonophore Nanomia bijuga is a pelagic hydrozoan (Cnidaria) with complex morphological organization. Each siphonophore is made up of many asexually produced, genetically identical zooids that are functionally specialized and morphologically distinct. These zooids predominantly arise by budding in two growth zones, and are arranged in precise patterns. This study describes the cellular anatomy of several zooid types, the stem, and the gas-filled float, called the pneumatophore. The distribution of cellular morphologies across zooid types enhances our understanding of zooid function. The unique absorptive cells in the palpon, for example, indicate specialized intracellular digestive processing in this zooid type. Though cnidarians are usually thought of as mono-epithelial, we characterize at least two cellular populations in this species which are not connected to a basement membrane. This work provides a greater understanding of epithelial diversity within the cnidarians, and will be a foundation for future studies on N. bijuga, including functional assays and gene expression analyses.

  • Species of the Genera Temora and Tortanus from Indonesian Coastal Waters
    Berk. Penel. Hayati: 14 (125–135), 2009 SPECIES OF THE GENERA TEMORA AND TORTANUS FROM INDONESIAN COASTAL WATERS Mulyadi Division of Zoology, Research Center for Biology, Indonesian Institute of Sciences Jl. Raya Bogor Km. 46 Cibinong 16911, Indonesia E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT During taxonomic studies on the pelagic copepods of Indonesian waters, three species of Temora, T. discaudata Giesbrecht, 1882, T. discaudata n. var. and T. turbinata (Dana, 1849), and three species of Tortanus, T. (Tortanus) barbatus, T. (Tortanus) forcipatus and T. (Tortanus) gracilis were described and figured on specimens collected from 8 sites along Indonesian coastal waters. Descriptions, measurements and figures are given for those species, along with a review of their distribution over the world oceans, and with taxonomic remarks, ecological notes, and restricted synonymies. Key words: taxonomy, Temora, Tortanus, Indonesian waters INTRODUCTION MATERIALS AND METHODS Family Temoridae Giesbrecht, 1893 comprises of The present plankton samples were obtained from 8 35 species from four genera, Epischura Forbes, 1882; sites during 1994–2007 (Figure 1). Sampling was done Eurytemora Giesbrecht, 1881; Heterocope Sars, 1863; and by surface and vertical hauls (10 m and 20 m depth to the Temora Baird, 1850. The genus Temora presently comprises surface) with plankton net (0.33 mm mesh size, 0.45 m of five species (Boxshall & Halsey, 2004). Among them two mouth diameter). The samples were fixed and preserved species, T. discaudata Giesbrecht, 1882 and T. turbinata in 5% buffered formaldehyde/sea water solution. As far (Dana, 1849) have been reported from Indonesian waters as possible, the specimens were identified to species level.

However, the utility RESPONSIBLE EDITOR of such databases is entirely dependent on the quality of the data they contain. We present a case Stefania Puce study that evaluated online biogeographic information available for a hydrozoan narcomedusan jellyfish, Aegina citrea. This medusa is considered one of the easiest to identify because it is one of KEYWORDS very few species with only four large tentacles protruding from midway up the exumbrella and it Biogeography databases; is the only recognized species in its genus.
