ZooKeys 185: 73–78. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.185.3078 Abstract This dataset includes information on sea stars collected during the ANDEEP3 expedition, which took place in 2005. The expedition focused on deep-sea stations in the Powell Basin and Weddell Sea. Sea stars were collected using an Agassiz trawl (3m, mesh-size 500µm), deployed in 16 stations during the ANTXXII/3 (ANDEEP3, PS72) expedition of the RV Polarstern. Sampling depth ranged from 1047 to 4931m. Trawling distance ranged from 731 to 3841m. The sampling area ranges from -41°S to -71°S (latitude) and from 0 to -65°W (longitude). A complete list of stations is available from the PANGAEA data system (http://www.pangaea.de/PHP/CruiseReports.php?b=Polarstern), including a cruise report (http://epic-reports.awi.de/3694/1/PE_72.pdf). The dataset includes 50 records, with individual counts ranging from 1-10, reaching a total of 132 specimens. -

C’est tout d’abord grâce au programme vERSO (Ecosystem Responses to global change : a multiscale approach in the Southern Ocean) que ce travail a été possible, mais aussi grâce aux collaborations construites avant et pendant ce travail. Cette thèse a aussi été l’occasion de continuer à aller travailler sur le terrain des hautes latitudes à plusieurs reprises pour collecter les échantillons et rencontrer de nouveaux collègues.

The Shallow-Water Macro Echinoderm Fauna of Nha Trang Bay (Vietnam): Status at the Onset of Protection of Habitats
The Shallow-water Macro Echinoderm Fauna of Nha Trang Bay (Vietnam): Status at the Onset of Protection of Habitats Master Thesis in Marine Biology for the degree Candidatus scientiarum Øyvind Fjukmoen Institute of Biology University of Bergen Spring 2006 ABSTRACT Hon Mun Marine Protected Area, in Nha Trang Bay (South Central Vietnam) was established in 2002. In the first period after protection had been initiated, a baseline survey on the shallow-water macro echinoderm fauna was conducted. Reefs in the bay were surveyed by transects and free-swimming observations, over an area of about 6450 m2. The main area focused on was the core zone of the marine reserve, where fishing and harvesting is prohibited. Abundances, body sizes, microhabitat preferences and spatial patterns in distribution for the different species were analysed. A total of 32 different macro echinoderm taxa was recorded (7 crinoids, 9 asteroids, 7 echinoids and 8 holothurians). Reefs surveyed were dominated by the locally very abundant and widely distributed sea urchin Diadema setosum (Leske), which comprised 74% of all specimens counted. Most species were low in numbers, and showed high degree of small- scale spatial variation. Commercially valuable species of sea cucumbers and sea urchins were nearly absent from the reefs. Species inventories of shallow-water asteroids and echinoids in the South China Sea were analysed. The results indicate that the waters of Nha Trang have echinoid and asteroid fauna quite similar to that of the Spratly archipelago. Comparable pristine areas can thus be expected to be found around the offshore islands in the open parts of the South China Sea. -

Nowadays, marine organisms are being given a lot of attention in drug discovery pipelines. In these studies, sponges and nudibranchs are frequently addressed, however an increasing number of * Corresponding author - DMP: [email protected] 2 David M. Pereira, Paula B. Andrade, Ricardo A. Pires, et al. works focus their attention in echinoderms. Given the fact that many of the bioactive molecules found in echinoderms are diet-derived, different feeding behavior and surrounding environment plays a critical role in the chemical composition of echinoderms. In this work, the most relevant chemical classes of small molecules present in echinoderms, such as fatty acids, carotenoids and sterols will be addressed. When data is available, the influence of the environment on the chemical profile of these organisms will be discussed. Keywords: Echinoderms; fatty acids; carotenoids; sterols. INTRODUCTION Marine environment remains, nowadays, the most diversified ecosystem on Earth as well as the least studied one. -
Feeding Ecology of Deep-Sea Seastars (Echinodermata: Asteroidea): a Fatty-Acid Biomarker Approach
MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 255: 193–206, 2003 Published June 24 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Feeding ecology of deep-sea seastars (Echinodermata: Asteroidea): a fatty-acid biomarker approach Kerry L. Howell1,*, David W. Pond2, David S. M. Billett1, Paul A. Tyler1 1Southampton Oceanography Centre, European Way, Southampton SO14 3ZH, United Kingdom 2British Antarctic Survey, Madingley Rd., Cambridge CB3 0ET, United Kingdom ABSTRACT: Fatty-acid biomarkers and stomach content analysis were used to investigate the diets of 9 species of deep-sea seastar. Polyunsaturated fatty acids were the most abundant categories of fatty acid contained in the total lipids of all species. They were dominated by 20:5 (n-3) and 20:4 (n-6), with 22:6 (n-3) present in much lower proportions. Monounsaturated fatty acids were also abundant, particularly 20:1 (n-13) and (n-9). Odd-numbered, branched-chain fatty acids and non-methylene interrupted dienes (NMIDs) were present in relatively high levels in all species. Cluster and multi- dimensional scaling (MDS) analyses of the fatty acid composition separated the seastar species into 3 trophic groups; suspension feeders, predators/scavengers, and mud ingesters. Suspension feeders showed greatest reliance on photosynthetic carbon as indicated by the abundance of fatty-acid bio- markers characteristic of photosynthetic microplankton. By contrast, mud ingesters were found to rely heavily on heterotrophic bacterial carbon, containing high percentages of 18:1 (n-7) and NMIDs. Predator/scavengers occupied a trophic position between the suspension feeders and mud ingesters. Zoroaster longicauda, an asteroid of unknown diet, had a similar fatty acid composition to the 3 suspension feeders, Freyella elegans, Brisingella coronata and Brisinga endecacnemos. -

Agassiz, 1864, of the family Stomopneustidae within the order Stomopneustoida, based on morphological characteristics. This species has two unique morphological characteristics: the ambulacral plate is composed of three primary plates and two demi-plates, and a valve of globiferous pedicellaria consists of with a well-developed long terminal hook and a unique stalk equipped with one to six long lateral processes covering membranes, resembling fins. It is newly recorded in Korea and is described with photographs. This brings the total number of sea urchins reported from the Yellow Sea, Korea, to seven.

Fasciole Pathways in Spatangoid Echinoids: a New Source of Phylogenetically Informative Characters

SMITH and B. STOCKLEY Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2005, 144, 15–35. With 8 figures Fasciole pathways in spatangoid echinoids: a new source of phylogenetically informative characters ANDREW B. SMITH FLS* and BRUCE STOCKLEY Department of Palaeontology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, UK Received February 2004; accepted for publication November 2004 Fascioles are important early-forming structures that play a key role in allowing irregular echinoids to burrow. They have traditionally been grouped into a small number of types according to their general position on the test, but this masks some significant differences that exist. The precise course that fasciole bands follow over the test plating has been mapped in detail for 89 species of spatangoid echinoids, representing the great majority of fasciole-bearing gen- era both living and fossil. Within each fasciole type, discrete and conserved patterns can be distinguished, differing both in which plates they are initiated on, and on whether they cross plate growth centres or are late-stage bands positioned towards the edge of the plate. Fasciole position is most highly conserved in the anterior and lateral inter- ambulacral plates and on the earliest forming bands. The existence of different subanal fasciole patterns in the Micrasteridae and Brissidae suggests that these may have evolved independently. Schizasterid and hemiasterine spatangoids can each be subdivided into two major clades, and brissid spatangoids into three clades based on detailed patterns of their fascioles.
