Tampa Bay Benthic Monitoring Program: Status of Middle Tampa Bay: 1993-1998
Tampa Bay Benthic Monitoring Program: Status of Middle Tampa Bay: 1993-1998 Stephen A. Grabe Environmental Supervisor David J. Karlen Environmental Scientist II Christina M. Holden Environmental Scientist I Barbara Goetting Environmental Specialist I Thomas Dix Environmental Scientist II MARCH 2003 1 Environmental Protection Commission of Hillsborough County Richard Garrity, Ph.D. Executive Director Gerold Morrison, Ph.D. Director, Environmental Resources Management Division 2 INTRODUCTION The Environmental Protection Commission of Hillsborough County (EPCHC) has been collecting samples in Middle Tampa Bay 1993 as part of the bay-wide benthic monitoring program developed to (Tampa Bay National Estuary Program 1996). The original objectives of this program were to discern the ―health‖—or ―status‖-- of the bay’s sediments by developing a Benthic Index for Tampa Bay as well as evaluating sediment quality by means of Sediment Quality Assessment Guidelines (SQAGs). The Tampa Bay Estuary Program provided partial support for this monitoring. This report summarizes data collected during 1993-1998 from the Middle Tampa Bay segment of Tampa Bay. 3 METHODS Field Collection and Laboratory Procedures: A total of 127 stations (20 to 24 per year) were sampled during late summer/early fall ―Index Period‖ 1993-1998 (Appendix A). Sample locations were randomly selected from computer- generated coordinates. Benthic samples were collected using a Young grab sampler following the field protocols outlined in Courtney et al. (1993). Laboratory procedures followed the protocols set forth in Courtney et al. (1995). Data Analysis: Species richness, Shannon-Wiener diversity, and Evenness were calculated using PISCES Conservation Ltd.’s (2001) ―Species Diversity and Richness II‖ software. -

Lloyd1,*, Anna Metaxas1, Brad deYoung2 1Department of Oceanography, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada B3H 4R2 2Department of Physics and Physical Oceanography, Memorial University, St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada A1B 3X7 ABSTRACT: Marine gastropods form a diverse taxonomic group, yet little is known about the factors that affect their larval distribution and abundance. We investigated the larval vertical dis- tribution and abundance of 9 meroplanktonic gastropod taxa (Margarites spp., Crepidula spp., Astyris lunata, Diaphana minuta, Littorinimorpha, Arrhoges occidentalis, Ilyanassa spp., Bittiolum alternatum and Nudibranchia), with similar morphology and swimming abilities, but different adult habitats and life-history strategies. We explored the role of physical (temperature, salinity, density, current velocities) and biological (fluorescence) factors, as well as periodic cycles (lunar phase, tidal state, diel period) in regulating larval vertical distribution. Using a pump, we collected plankton samples at 6 depths (3, 6, 9, 12, 18 and 24 m) at each tidal state, every 2 h over a 36 and a 26 h period, during a spring and neap tide, respectively, in St. George’s Bay, Nova Scotia. Con- currently, we measured temperature, salinity, density, fluorescence (as a proxy for chlorophyll, i.e. phytoplankton density), and current velocity. Larval abundance was most strongly related to tem- perature, except for Littorinimorpha and Crepidula spp., for which it was most strongly related to fluorescence. Margarites spp., A. -

Compensatory Effects of Boat Wake and Dredge Spoil Disposal on Assemblages of Macroinvertebrates
Compensatory Effects of Boat Wake and Dredge Spoil Disposal on Assemblages of Macroinvertebrates MELANIE J. BISHOP* Centre for Research on Ecological Impacts of Coastal Cities, Marine Ecology Laboratories, A11, University of Sydney, New South Wales 2006, Australia ABSTRACT: Estuarine assemblages are exposed to multiple disturbances that overlap in time and space. Along the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (east coast, United States), two disturbances that frequently co-occur are the production of wake by boats and the disposal of sediment dredged from boat channels. Boat wake generally coarsens sediments by eroding finer particles while deposition of dredge spoil decreases mean grain size. If previously demonstrated effects of boat wake on infauna are due to coarsening of grain size, deposition of dredge spoil on wake affected sites may, through compensatory effects, prevent an effect of wake from being detected. Epifaunal assemblages associated with seagrass blades that are more likely to be structured by hydrodynamic forces than granulometry may instead be affected by boat wake irrespective of the previous deposition of fine materials. To test these hypotheses, infauna and epifauna were sampled in patchy seagrass habitat at sites with and without boat wake that were affected by historic deposition of dredge spoil and at sites without wake that had not received dredge spoil. Sediment granulometry and infaunal assemblages differed between sites with and without dredge spoil but not between spoil affected sites differing in exposure to wake. Epifaunal assemblages differed between sites with and without wake irrespective of sediment granulometry. The effect of wake on epifauna was primarily due to lesser abundances of the gastropod Bittiolum varium and the slipper limpet, Crepidula fornicata, at wake exposed sites. -

^;^2_ MALACOLOGIA, 1993, 35(2); 261-313 PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS AND GENERIC REVIEW OF THE BITTIINAE (PROSOBRANCHIA: GERITHIOIDEA) Richard S. Houbrick Department of Invertebrate Zoology, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20560, U.S.A. ABSTRACT The anatomy of seven members of the Bittium group is described, clarifying the status of the genus-level taxa comprising it. Bittium reticulatum, the type species of Bittium Gray, is described in depth, thereby establishing criteria for comparisons with other taxa of Bitliinae. The type species of Stylidium Dell and LirobiWum Bartsch, and representatives of Bittiolum Cossmann and Cacozeliana Strand are examined and compared with Bittium, s.s. Results of anatomical studies and a phylogenetic analysis using the Hennig86 and CLADOS programs, with Cehtt)ium as an outgroup, establish monophyly for Bitliinae Cossmann and reveal six different genus-level taxa. A new genus, ittibittium, from the Indo-Pacific, is proposed. Synonymies of each genus- level taxon and representative species examined are presented. Brief accounts of the ecology and zoogeography of each taxon are given. Two taxa formerly attributed to the 6/ff/um-group are herein excluded from it and referred to Cerithium Bruguière. These are Cerithium zebrum Kiener, 1841, and Cerithium boeticum Pease, 1861. The subfamily Bittiinae Cossmann, 1906, is thought to comprise nine genera (four of which were not included in phylogenetic analyses) : Bittium Gray, 1847; Bittiolum Cossmann, 1906; Ittibittium gen. n., Stylidium Dalí, 1907; Lirobit- tium Bartsch, 1911 ; Cacozeliana Strand, 1928; Argyropeza Melvill & Standen, 1901 ; Varicopeza Gründel, 1976; Zebittium Finlay, 1927. The genus Cassiella Gofas, 1987, of uncertain place- ment, is included as a possible member of the group. -
