Boreogadus Saida) and Safron Cod (Eleginus Gracilis) Early Life Stages in the Pacifc Arctic

Vestfals1 · Franz J. Mueter2 · Janet T. Dufy‑Anderson3 · Morgan S. Busby3 · Alex De Robertis3 Received: 24 September 2018 / Revised: 15 March 2019 / Accepted: 18 March 2019 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Polar cod (Boreogadus saida) and safron cod (Eleginus gracilis) are key fshes in the Arctic marine ecosystem, serving as important trophic links between plankton and apex predators, yet our understanding of their life histories in Alaska’s Arctic is extremely limited. To improve our knowledge about their early life stages (ELS), we described the spatial and temporal distributions of prefexion larvae to late juveniles (to 65 mm in length) in the Chukchi and western Beaufort seas based on surveys conducted between 2004 and 2013, and examined how their abundances varied in response to environmental factors. Species-specifc diferences in habitat use were found, with polar cod having a more ofshore and northern distribution than safron cod, which were found closer inshore and farther south. Polar cod prefexion and fexion larvae were encountered throughout the sampling season across much of the shelf, which suggests that spawning occurs over several months and at multiple locations, with Barrow Canyon potentially serving as an important spawning and/or retention area. Polar cod ELS were abundant at intermediate temperatures (5.0–6.0 °C), while safron cod were most abundant at the highest temperatures, which suggests that safron cod may beneft from a warming Arctic, while polar cod may be adversely afected. -

Of Corncobs and Flat Artichokes (Pdf) [Neptunea]
Of Corncobs and Flat Artichokes by Ronald L. Shimek, Ph. D. Here in the Pacific Northwest many shell collectors tend to think that we have been short-changed with regard to large-shelled snails. A couple of larger snail species are relatively common, Ceratostoma foliatum (Gmelin, 1791) and Fusitriton oregonesis (Redfield, 1848) come to mind but, by and large, the sizes of most local shelled gastropods range from small to smaller. There is, however, one relatively diverse group that contains several species whose individuals may become relatively large. Even better, depending on the area where they are found, some individuals are spectacularly- colored with interesting sculpture. These animals are, of course, the larger species in the genus Neptunea. The mention of Neptunea in a recent issue of The Dredgings, prompted me to write this essay. For some time I’ve wanted to contribute a short article and I guess it just took the necessary stimulus. A B C Figure A. Neptunea pribiloffensis. Specimen is about 10 cm (4 inches) long. Collected from the eastern Bering Sea. Figure B. Neptunea lyrata. Specimen is about 12 cm (5 inches) long. Collected from the Strait of Juan de Fuca, south of San Juan Island, Washington. Figure C. Neptunea heros (Gray, 1850) is one of the more “flashy” northern Neptunea species. This specimen was about 19 cm (7 inches) long and, when living, the shell color was an intense magenta. Figure D.

Constant commercial fishing for groundfish has occurred since the 1960s. The implementation of areas closed to bottom trawling to protect critical habitat for fish or crabs resulted in successful management of these fisheries. The efficacy of these closures on non-target species is unknown. This study determined if differences in abundance, biomass, diversity and evenness of dominant fish and invertebrate species occur among areas open and closed to bottom trawling in the eastern Bering Sea between 1996 and 2000. -
Distribution and Abundance of Some Epibenthic Invertebrates of the Northeastern Gulf of Alaska with Notes on the Feeding Biology of Selected Species
DISTRIBUTION AND ABUNDANCE OF SOME EPIBENTHIC INVERTEBRATES OF THE NORTHEASTERN GULF OF ALASKA WITH NOTES ON THE FEEDING BIOLOGY OF SELECTED SPECIES by Howard M. Feder and Stephen C. Jewett Institute of Marine Science University of Alaska Fairbanks, Alaska 99701 Final Report Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program Research Unit 5 August 1978 357 We thank Max Hoberg, University of Alaska, and the research group from the Northwest Fisheries Center, Seattle, Washington, for assistance aboard the MV North Pucijk. We also thank Lael Ronholt, Northwest Fisheries Center, for data on commercially important invertebrates. Dr. D. P. Abbott, of the Hopkins Marine Station, Stanford University, identified the tunicate material. We appreciate the assistance of the Marine Sorting Center and Max Hoberg of the University of Alaska for taxonomic assistance. We also thank Rosemary Hobson, Data Processing, University of Alaska, for help with coding problems and ultimate resolution of those problems. This study was funded by the Bureau of Land Management, Department of the Interior, through an interagency agreement with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce, as part of the Alaska Outer Continental Shelf Environmental Assessment Program. SUMMARY OF OBJEC!CIVES, CONCLUSIONS, AND IMPLICATIONS WITH RESPECT TO OCS OIL AND GAS DEVELOPMENT The objectives of this study were to obtain (1) a qualitative and quantitative inventory of dominant epibenthic species within the study area, (2) a description of spatial distribution patterns of selected benthic invertebrate species, and (3) preliminary observations of biological interrelationships between selected segments of the benthic biota. The trawl survey was effective, and excellent spatial coverage was obtained, One hundred and thirty-three stations were successfully occupied, yielding a mean epifaunal invertebrate biomass of 2.6 g/mz. -

Received 29 April 2014, revised version accepted 23 May 2014 The taxonomy of sinistral Neptunea species from the Pliocene of the North Sea Basin and the Quaternary of NW Europe is investigated. All sinistral forms are considered to be part of a single clade. Morphological varieties from the Pliocene successions of the southern North Sea Basin are documented. A remarkable increase in the number of varieties occurs in a short stratigraphic interval in the latest Piacenzian (Lillo Formation, Kruisschans Member, Antwerp area, Belgium). The Pliocene morphs are for the moment grouped as forms within Neptunea angulata Harmer, 1914 (non N. angulata Wood, 1848). Several of the morphs appear to lack intermediate forms and thus the presence of sibling species may be demonstrated when more material will become available. During the Pleistocene, the sinistral species N. inversa Harmer, 1918, occurred in NW Europe. South of the North Sea Basin the last occurrence of the species is at least the Middle Pleistocene MIS 13. -

The writer, who served as research associate under this project, spent the. periods from July 10 to Oct. 10, 1948, and from June 1949 to August 1950 at the Arctic Research Laboratory, which is located at Point Barrow base at ap- proximately long. 156°41' W. and lat. 71°20' N.

We studied 18 species of Buccinidae that belong to eight different genera and inhabit the China coastal seas. We analyzed the patterns of divergence between an outgroup and basal ingroup taxa, the monophyly of the genus Neptunea, and the position of one unnamed species within the Buccinidae. A phylogenetic tree (neighbor-joining (NJ) method) was reconstructed based on the sequences of 18S rRNA, 28S rRNA and COI, with Rapana venosa as outgroup. The NJ tree indicated that the 18 species could be divided into five groups. The genus Buccinum was monophyletic, whereas Neptunea was shown to be paraphyletic since it included Siphonalia subdilatata and Neptunea sp., a new species.
