Springer is part of Springer Science+Business Media (www.springer.com) We would like to dedicate this book to the pioneers of research in Latin American. To Marı´a Elena Caso, Irene Bernasconi, Luis Roberto Tomassi and Evelyn Zoppi de Roa. Foreword

This is a remarkable book. First and foremost, it compiles an immense amount of literature on all aspects of echinoderm biology and ecology over an extremely broad geographical range. This will be extremely useful because much of the literature is relatively unknown to the world at large. The description of the oceanography and marine environments of each country in a comprehensive way will be of considerable interest to marine biologists in general. One of the most interesting aspects of this book is the section devoted to the history of echinoderm studies in each country. The first reports about echinoderms were isolated and sporadic, not systematic studies. These generally did not begin until the 1850s with various foreign expeditions along the coasts of Latin America. Studies of echinoderms by workers in Latin American countries themselves did not begin to develop appreciably until the 1950s. This has changed in a dramatic way. In the latter part of the twentieth century, interest in marine biology and recognition of its importance in terms of basic science, the environment and conservation, and economics increased greatly. This led to an increase in the number of marine biologists in general and of echinoderm biologists in particular. The amount of research activity that has developed since then is impressive. Another thing that impressed me, apparent in the book, is the passion of Latin American biologists for echinoderms, their commitment to conservation, their desire to assist their countries through their efforts, and their collegiality.

vii Foreword

Juan José Alvarado is one of those students who, from very early on, denoted a clear interest in Marine Science and at some point defined his area of interest. When he started looking at the echinoderms of Costa Rica and later, at those reported and collected from Coco Island National Park, he found what he was looking for. Since then, he has been actively carrying out research on echinoderms, and most important, he has drawn attention to the activities regarding this group that are taking place in Latin America. First, with the publication of Research on Echinoderms in Latin America in 2005 (Revista de Biología Tropical, Volume 53, Supplement 3: 387 p.). Then, with the creation of the Iberoamerican Echinoderm Network Red Iberoamericana de Equinodermos (RIE) in 2006. And in 2008, with the publication of another Special Issue on echinoderm research in Latin America: Revista de Biología Tropical, 56 (Suppl. 3): 360 p. Now, together with Francisco Solís-Marín from the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), they have put together an outstanding compilation of echinoderm research in Ibero- america. The dedication of this book to the pioneering Latin American echinoderm researchers is a tribute to their great work and an acknowledgment of the fruit their early and many times solitary work has borne. It is a great honor for me to write this Foreword, for I consider their work a significant step for biological research in the region..

ix Preface

The Iberoamerican Echinoderms Network (Red Iberoamericana de Equinodermos) (RIE) (http://zicatela.umar.mx/*redequinos/2/) was created in August 2006 at the 12th International Echinoderms Congress in New Hampshire, United States, as an initiative to strengthen academic connections between Iberoamerican echinoderm researchers. The RIE seeks to fortify the links of researchers in the different countries of the region, being a bridge of communication and exchange of ideas. It seeks to be the platform for discussion and communication of priority projects for Latin America echinoderms. It seeks to offer the opportunity of collaborative work, to place the region among the principal research and conservation regions of the world. Likewise, the RIE intends to support students interested in echinoderm research. To enrich their formation, it will offer information about researchers who could help in their projects, courses, seminars, or symposia, as well as providing literature. The goal of the RIE is to develop workshops, congresses, special journals supplements and books, and to support the development of the knowledge of the echinoderms in Latin America. The first effort of the RIE was the preparation and publication of a Special Issue of the Revista de Biología Tropical (International Journal of Tropical Biology and Conservation) (Alvarado, J. J. and Cortés, J. (Editors). 2005. Research on Echi- noderms in Latin America, Volume 53, Supplement 3: 387 p.) (http://www.ots.ac. cr/tropiweb/intpages/suppl/sup53-3.html). This initiative was born during the 11th International Echinoderms Congress in Münich, Germany, in 2003. This Special Issue compiled 28 papers from 12 countries by 62 authors, touching topics as diverse as paleontology in the Uruguayan region and fisheries models of sea cucumbers in Baja California. The second output of the RIE was a second supplement of the Revista de Biología Tropical (Alvarado, J.J. and Cortés, J. (Editors). 2008. Research on Echinoderms in Latin America II, Volume 56, Supplement 3: 360 p.) (http://www. ots.ac.cr/tropiweb/intpages/suppl/sup56-3.html). This issue compiled 21 papers from eight countries by 46 authors in Latin America (including an invited paper from the Canary Islands). Those papers demonstrated the high degree of knowledge of some countries in topics such as diversity, ecology, aquaculture, and fisheries. It also identified countries where more efforts are needed.

xi xii Preface

The third effort was the establishment of the first Latin American Echinoderm Congress (Congreso Latinoamericano de Equinodermos-CLE) held in Puerto Madryn, Argentina, between 13 and 18 November 2011. This congress was organized by the Centro Nacional Patagónico (CENPAT), the Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales ‘‘Bernardino Rivadavia’’ (MACN), and the Universidad Nac- ional de la Patagonia San Juan Bosco. A total of 112 people participated in this event with 76 oral presentations and 54 Poster, covering the following themes: biogeography, biochemistry, ecology, physiology, paleontology, fisheries and aquaculture, reproduction and development, and , systematics, and . This book represents the fourth output and the confirmation of the commitment of the RIE with the international scientific community. The book represents an extensive recompilation of information about all the research done in the region from theses, reports, books, and scientific journals. We were able to identify the strengths and weaknesses of each country and also allow the international scien- tific community to be able to access information that was held in reports, theses, and local papers that were written in Spanish, allowing a greater diffusion of the results and conclusions obtained. Our goal is to improve the echinoderm research on the region and with this road map establish future research in collaboration with the different laboratories and researchers that participated in this book.

Alejandro Herrera-Moreno and Liliana Betancourt

13.1 Introduction

The Island of Hispaniola is the second largest in the Archipelago of the . It is located between 17°3601500N and 19°5700900N, and 68°1902200W and 74°4103300W. Its geographical boundaries are the Atlantic Ocean to the north, the to the south, the Mona Channel to the East, which separates it from Puerto Rico, and in the West, the Windward Passage and the Jamaica Channel, which separate it from Cuba and Jamaica, respectively. The 76,480 km2 of its territory is divided politically into two countries: to the east and the Republic of Haiti in the west, separated by a land border of 360 km. The Republic of Haiti has a total area of 27,750 km2, which includes the mainland territory plus several islands and islets such as Gonave (743 km2), Tortue (180 km2), Vache (52 km2), Cayemites (45 km2) and Navassa (5.2 km2). The Dominican Republic has an area of 48,442 km2 of mainland in addition to several islands and islets such as Saona (117 km2), Beata (27 km2) and Catalina (9.6 km2). Two oceanic banks: Christmas and Silver Banks, with areas of 70 and 150 km2 respectively, are located to the north of Samana in the Atlantic Ocean. The coastline of Hispaniola extends for about 3,059 km (1,288 km belong to 16 Dominican coastal provinces and 1,771 km to nine Haitian coastal provinces) containing ecosystems such as sandy beaches, rocky shores, cliffs, estuaries, coastal lagoons and mangrove forests. On the Haitian coast important mangroves areas are reported along the north and northeast coast in the Bays of Fort Liberté, l’Acul, Caracol, the Artibonite estuary and the Islands Les Cayes, Vache, Gonave and Cayemite (Ehrlich et al. 1987). Along the Dominican coast the largest areas of mangroves are found in the Bay of Samaná and Montecristi.

The Dominican shelf has a surface area of 8,130 km2 extending down to 200 m depth, with an average width of 7.5 km. The platform area of Haiti is estimated at 6,683 km2 and is on average narrower. Important coastal habitats include sandy or muddy bottoms (related to the degree of terrigenous influence), commonly pop- ulated with abundant macrophytobenthos, especially , followed by patches and fringing or barrier reefs. In Haiti coral reefs occur near Vache Island, all around Gonave Island in the central Bay of Port-au-Prince, on the Rochelois Bank, at Cayemites Islands, off the northern coast of the southern peninsula, and from the border with the Dominican Republic in the east to Acul Bay just west of Cape Haitien (Creary et al. 2008). Well preserved reefs are found at Navassa Island (Causey et al. 2000). In the Dominican Republic important reef areas include the Montecristi National Park barrier reef in the north-west (where the shelf is widest), narrow high-energy reefs in the central region, and the Bávaro-Macao-Punta Cana barrier reef system at the eastern end. Samaná Bay receives many rivers and is the largest estuary of the insular Caribbean. Coastal reefs in the vicinity are poorly developed, but the Christmas and Silver Banks reef systems are about 100 km to the north. To the south, on the Caribbean coast, are the well-studied reefs of National East Park and the adjacent . Uplifted carbonate terraces with reefs growing on narrow platforms are present in the west from Catalina Island to beyond Santo Domingo (e.g. Boca Chica and the Submarine National Park La Caleta). Condi- tions are not good for reefs in the south-west, except on the shallow sheltered shelf east of Cabo Beata at National Park Jaragua (Woodley et al. 2000).

13.2 Research

Echinoderm studies of the waters around Hispaniola Island have a long history. The Haitian collection of David Friedrich Weinland from 1857 (NMNH 2002) and the work on holothuroids by Emil Selenka (1867), with the record of Actinopyga agassizi (Selenka, 1867) in Haiti and the description of the type specimen of Holothuria grisea Selenka, 1867, are among the earliest contributions. William More Gabb made collections in the Dominican Republic in 1878 and deposited several specimens of lucunter (Linnaeus, 1758) in the U.S. National Museum of Natural History (Rathbun, 1886). In December 1878, during the Blake Expedition, the echinoid Salenocidaris varispina (A. Agassiz, 1880) was collected northwest of Haiti at 2,195 m depth (A. Agassiz, 1880). Dodërlein and Hartmeyer (1910) and Verrill (1915) summarized previous records of asteroids from Hispaniola. Hubert L. Clark (1919) provided the first taxonomic summary of Haitian echinoderms listing more than 20 of all classes, except . In the 1930s, new contributions to the knowledge of echinoderms from Hispaniola include Deichmann (1930) who summarized previous records for the Dominican Republic and Haiti in her review of the holothurians of the western part of the Atlantic Ocean. The handbook of the littoral echinoderms of Porto Rico and 13 Recent Echinoderms from Hispaniola 427 the other West Indian Islands (H.L. Clark 1933) also summarized historical information about all classes of echinoderms for Hispaniola, except crinoids, with some new records. Austin H. Clark (1939) listed 19 species of shallow-water echinoderms (between 1 and 2 m depth) collected in two localities in the north of Haiti (Cape Haitien and Tortue Island) during the Smithsonian-Hartford expedi- tion of March 1937, aboard the RV Joseph Conrad. New collections took place during the 1930s on five expeditions: Parish- Smithsonian in 1930 to Haiti on the yacht Esperanza, Norcross-Bartlett in July 1931 to the southwest of Santo Domingo down to 200 m depth on the schooner Effie Morrissey, Johnson–Smithsonian Deep-Sea in February 1933 on the Yacht Caroline at depths from 26 to 40 m at twelve stations inside the Bay and around the Peninsula of Samaná (Bartsch 1933), RV Stranger in February 1933 in Port-au-Prince and the RV Atlantis in April 1939 dredging to 1,170 m deep at one station to the northeast of Haiti (H.L. Clark 1941). These expeditions contributed new records for Hispaniola including two deep-water asteroid species: Persephonaster patagiatus (Sladen, 1889) and Phormosoma placenta sigsbei (A. Agassiz, 1880). The expeditions of 1931 and 1933 collected the first specimens of crinoids: Poliometra prolixa (Sladen, 1881) and Nemaster rubiginosa (Pourtalés, 1869). In the decade of 1960s two expeditions took place. The exploratory fishing vessel Silver Bay in October 1963 made collections at six stations between 92 and 348 m deep in the north, northeast and east of the Dominican Republic. The exploratory fishing vessel Oregon in June and May, 1965 and December 1969 collected between 11 and 59 m deep at four stations off the north Haitian coast and the northeast Dominican coast. During this period, Parslow and Clark (1963) summarized the zoogeographical distribution of shallow-water (less than 17 m deep) ophiuroids known for the West Indies, including 11 species from Hispaniola, updating the previous list of H.L. Clark (1919). Deichmann (1963) summarized previous records of holothuroids for Haiti. Halpern (1969) mentioned the asteorid Litonotaster intermedius (Perrier, 1884) found in the Windward Pass, between Cuba and Hispaniola, at a depth between 1,958 and 3,294 m (Downey 1973). From January to July 1970 and July 1971 the most prolific expeditions carried out in Hispaniolan waters took place aboard the RV John Elliot Pillsbury. Collections were made at seven stations in Haiti, between 31 and 2,545 m deep, and 33 stations in Dominican Republic, between 9 and 3,109 m deep (Fig. 13.1) (Staiger and Voss 1970). Meyer et al. (1978) included the RV John Elliot Pillsbury collections in their zoogeographical study of western Atlantic Ocean crinoids, offering the most complete summary of this group, with 19 species listed for Dominican and Haitian waters. In her review of the Order for the Atlantic Ocean, Downey (1986) also incorporated Haitian specimens from the Pillsbury expeditions. A.M. Clark (1987) described the type specimen of the asteoridHenricia downeyae A.M. Clark, 1987 from a Haitian locality, registered in the catalogue of types of the NMNH (Ahearn 1995). Two more records for Haiti from this period were the holothuroid Psolus tuberculosus Théel, 1886 (Miller and Pawson 1984) and the asteroid Ceramaster grenadensis grenadensis (Perrier, 1881) (Halpern 1970). 428 A. Herrera-Moreno and L. Betancourt

Fig. 13.1 Localities where collections of echinoderms have been made by several expeditions and national and international projects on the shelf and oceanic waters of Hispaniola

All these expeditions increased the collections of the five classes of echino- derms from Hispaniola in international museums with 541 specimens of 132 species located in the U.S. Museum of Natural History (NMNH 2002), Florida Museum of Natural History (FLMNH 2010), Museum of Comparative at Harvard University (MCZ 2010) and Museum of Natural Sciences of Berlin (ZMB 2010). The RV John Elliot Pillsbury expeditions had a decisive role in the enrichment of collections, particularly with deep-sea species, that at the end of the 1970s, 90 % of the , asteroid, and echinoid species known from Hispaniola were already described and deposited in different museums. In the Dominican Republic, the creation of the Center of Marine Biology Research (CIBIMA) in 1962 promoted coastal and marine biodiversity research. Between the decades from 1970 to 1990, CIBIMA produced summarized list of echinoids and asteroids (Cicero et al. 1976), ophiuroids (Rathe 1978) and holo- thuroids (Briones 1983). Multiple reports were finally compiled into a preliminary study on coastal and marine biodiversity of the Dominican Republic (CIBIMA 1992). From these investigations, 242 specimens of 58 species are deposited in the National Museum of Natural History of Santo Domingo (MNHNSD 2008). In May 1979, the Autonomous University of Santo Domingo, along with the University of Puerto Rico, implemented an expedition on board the RV Crawford to make inventories of the southeast Dominican reefs of La Caleta and Catalina and Saona Islands (Williams et al. 1983). Later the IDECOOP expedition 13 Recent Echinoderms from Hispaniola 429

(Fig. 13.1) made collections between 142 and 270 m deep with three new records for the deep-sea Dominican echinoderms: the crinoid asterius (Lin- naeus, 1775); the ophiuroid Astronicda isidis Lyman, 1872 and the echinoid Conolampas sigsbei (A. Agassiz, 1878) (Rivas 1983). Studies carried out by researchers from East Carolina University in Montecristi reefs (Luczkovich 1991) extended the reports of Dominican crinoids with the record of Tropiometra cari- nata (Lamarck, 1816). The information on Haitian echinoderms comes from old collections, that have already been mentioned, and some more recent studies carried out by foreign institutions. In June 1988, a detailed study at 13 stations on different ecological zones (from the reef lagoon to the frontal reef) of the Arcadines coral reefs was made by the World Wildlife Fund and the Conservation Foundation Wilcox Associates, between 0.3 and 21 m depth (Wilcox et al. 1989). Twelve species of common shallow-water echinoderms were reported. Hendler et al. (1995) sum- marized the echinoderms from approximately 17 old Haitian records. With the implementation of the Hispabiota Marina Project (Herrera-Moreno and Betancourt 2012) by Programa EcoMar, Inc. in the Dominican Republic a bibliographical and taxonomic review of echinoderm species was done for the first time, with a historical and insular approach (Herrera-Moreno and Betancourt 2004). A database was created with the results of collections of echinoderms from more than 150 localities of the coastal zone, the shelf and the deep zone of Hispaniola (Fig. 13.1). This project added 60 species to the national inventory of CIBIMA (1992) confirming 123 species for Dominican coastal and marine zone. It also compiled for the first time 79 species for Haiti. A total of 156 species for Hispaniola (Appendix) is discussed in the present report.

13.3 Diversity and Distribution

The numbers of echinoderms in different taxonomic categories for the Dominican Republic, Haiti and Hispaniola are summarized in Table 13.1. There are 22 species of crinoids (18 for the Dominican Republic and eight for Haiti), subdivided into 17 genera, nine families and four orders. About five species of crinoids are found in environments at depths to 45 m deep including those which, according to Hendler et al. (1995), are more common and accessible to conventional scuba diving. The remaining species are distributed below 100 to 1,033 m deep. The list of asteroids has 33 known species (18 for Haiti and 21 for the Dominican Republic) subdivided into 24 genera, 11 families and seven orders. Downey (1973) in her review of the asteroids in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean described 95 species and noted that the asteroid fauna from Hispaniola was practically unknown. The bathymetric ranges of the asteroid species known from Hispaniola varies from 0.3 to 3,493 m deep. About eight species are dis- tributed from the surface to 50 m deep primarily from the mangroves to the reef front, with the remaining species found below 50 m deep. 430 A. Herrera-Moreno and L. Betancourt

Thirty species of ophiuroids are known for Hispaniola (21 for Haiti and 24 for the Dominican Republic), subdivided into 20 genera, 12 families and two orders. Most species of ophiuroids are distributed in water less than 30 m deep found in beds and coral reefs. Only four species were collected between 148 and 366 m deep. Fifty species of echinoids are listed (21 for Haiti and 41 for the Dominican Republic) subdivided into 36 genera (including one species identified only to the genus level), 17 families and 12 orders. Although bathymetric data are not available for all species, the collections from Hispaniola contain the more common shallow-water species from mangrove habitats, seagrass beds and coral reefs. At least about 30 species are distributed from 100 to 2,545 m depth. The list of holothurians of Hispaniola includes 21 species (11 for Haiti and 18 for the Dominican Republic) with ten genera, seven families and three orders. Most species of holothuroid are common in shallow sedimentary environments. Three species are found between 243 and 1,400 m deep.

13.4 Ecology

In the Dominican Republic, echinoderm species are mentioned in the inventories of invertebrates of seagrass beds and coral reefs from Manzanillo to Punta Rucia in Montecristi (Luczkovich 1991; CIBIMA 1998), Puerto Plata (Herrera-Moreno and 13 Recent Echinoderms from Hispaniola 431

Betancourt 2009), Samaná (Sang and Lysenko 1994; Sang 1996), Punta Cana, Bávaro (CURPOB 2000; Brandt et al. 2003), National East Park (Vega et al. 1997) and Isla Saona in La Altagracia, Catalinita in La Romana, La Caleta in Santo Domingo (Williams et al. 1983), Haina in San Cristóbal (Herrera-Moreno et al. 2009), Las Calderas Bay in Peravia (Almonte 1976), Puerto Viejo in Azua (González et al. 1978) and Jaragua National Park in Pedernales (Weil 2006). In Haiti, inventories with echinoderm species include Lamentin (Beebe 1928), Les Arcadins reefs (FoProBIM 1985; Wilcox et al. 1989) and Navassa (Miller 2003). Due to the dramatic reduction of black in the Caribbean in the 1980s, the presence of this species is always highlighted in all inventories and some abundance surveys have been done. In the Dominican reefs, Chiappone (2001) estimated an average density of D. antillarum of 0.03 ind 50 m-2 for the coral reefs in the National East Park, between 9 and 17 m depth. He also estimated 9.15 ind 50 m-2 in the Boca Chica reefs between 4 and 20 m depth. Brandt et al. (2003) reported a maximum density of 5.4 ind 10 m-2 in the reefs of Punta Cana and Bavaro with the highest average values in the deep fore- reef (1.2 ind 10 m-2) in relation to the shallow areas of the back-reef (0.5 indi- viduals/10 m2). For Caracol Bay in Haiti, Hay (1984) reported 20 ind m-2, between 3 and 10 m depth. FoProBIM (FoProBIM 1985) found densities of D. antillarum up to 14.5 ind 100 m-2 at 5 m depth in the area of Les Arcadines. More recently, abundance values from 0 to 1.5 ind 10 m-2 have been reported in the same area by Linton (2003). However, ecological studies at the level of echinoderm populations or com- munities seem to be scarce. In the Dominican Republic, Chiappone (2001) con- ducted a study measuring density and size distribution for five species of echinoids (D. antillarum, Echinometra viridis, , tribuloides and Tripneustes ventricosus) in the National East Park and Boca Chica. Tewfik et al. (2005) studied the impact of anthropogenic enrichment on the seagrass food web at two locations in southern Dominican Republic (Pedernales and Barahona), involving several species of echinoderms, categorized by them as three consumer functional groups: (a) generalists (regular urchins: Lytechinus variegatus, T. ventricosus, D. antillarium); (b) subsurface deposit feeders (red heart urchin Meoma ventricosa and sand dollars) and (c) surface deposit feeders (cushion sea star reticulatus and sea cucumbers). Hay (1984) compared the activity of grazing fish and sea urchins in the Bay of Caracol in Haiti, on an overexploited coral reef including density data of Diadema antillarum and its rate of con- sumption of .

13.5 Aquaculture and Fisheries

Commercial fishing of takes place in the Dominican Republic. According to the Dominican Council of Fisheries and Aquaculture CODOPESCA in 2002 there was an export of 57.6 MT, equivalent to 9 % of seafood exports. The 432 A. Herrera-Moreno and L. Betancourt

figures for years 2007, 2008 and 2009 indicate much smaller export volumes with 1.27, 2.37 and 1.37 MT, respectively. The trading company for sea cucumbers in the Dominican Republic is NETCO C x A which operates from Juan de Bolaño Beach in Montecristi with CODOPESCA permissions for exportation to the United States. There are no studies that scientifically support this exploitation. In fact, there is no information on the species being harvested, minimum sizes, close seasons or any other descriptive parameters of an organized fishery. The survival of these echinoderm populations is seriously threatened. According to Toral- Granda (2008), between 2002 and 2003, imported 2,607 kg of dry weight of sea cucumbers from Dominican Republic and 10,680 kg of dry weight from Haiti. In Haiti, the Caribbean SeaFood Company announces online the sale of dried sea cucumbers of the species badionotus.

13.6 Threats

The threats to echinoderms are not very different from those faced by other marine groups of Hispaniola. The destruction of ecosystems (mainly mangroves, seagrass beds and coral reefs) due to coastal development (human settlements, agriculture, industrial and tourist facilities and/or fishing) and tourism activities (especially diving) is the major threat that affects all groups. In addition to impacts of habitat destruction, some groups of echinoderms are exploited for commercial purposes. These include some species of sea cucumbers used for human consumption and some species of starfish and sea urchins used for sale as aquarium species (SERCM 2004). Other echinoderm species, such as the Mellita quin- quiesperforata and the starfish are collected for handicrafts that are sold in tourist establishments. Some fishermen also use this asteroid species as bait in net traps. No ecological studies or fisheries biology research have been done to support a sustainable exploitation of these resources.

13.7 Recommendations

It is essential to train a group of national specialists from Haiti and the Dominican Republic in the systematic of all echinoderm classes that can work closely together to better understand the echinofauna of Hispaniola. The National Museum of Natural History in Santo Domingo should be involved in the development and review of the marine collections. New investigations in structural ecology and population dynamics of echinoderms must be initiated for those species that may be subject to some kind of extractive use. For exploited species, it is also necessary to conduct fishery biology investigations for the establishment of closed seasons, protected areas from fishing and legal minimum sizes. Fishing regulations and fishery statistics are crucial for a sustainable exploitation of these species. Marine 13 Recent Echinoderms from Hispaniola 433 research should continue increasing the knowledge of the echinoderms in new areas of the Dominican and Haitian platforms, including exploration of deeper zones.
