Box 56, Dunedin 9054, New Zealand; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +47-481-37-867 Abstract: Free-living species often receive greater conservation attention than the parasites they support, with parasite conservation often being hindered by a lack of parasite biodiversity knowl- edge. This study aimed to determine the current state of knowledge regarding parasites of the Southern Hemisphere freshwater fish family Galaxiidae, in order to identify knowledge gaps to focus future research attention. Specifically, we assessed how galaxiid–parasite knowledge differs among geographic regions in relation to research effort (i.e., number of studies or fish individuals examined, extent of tissue examination, taxonomic resolution), in addition to ecological traits known to influ- ence parasite richness. To date, ~50% of galaxiid species have been examined for parasites, though the majority of studies have focused on single parasite taxa rather than assessing the full diversity of macro- and microparasites. The highest number of parasites were observed from Argentinean galaxiids, and studies in all geographic regions were biased towards the highly abundant and most widely distributed galaxiid species, Galaxias maculatus.

The Vtg gene, mRNA and protein regulation involve several environmental factors and physiological processes, including gonadal maturation and moult stages, among others. Once the Vtg gene, mRNAs and protein are obtained, it is possible to establish the relationship between the elements that participate in their regulation, which could either be species-specific, or tissue-specific. This work is a systematic analysis that compares the similarities and differences of Vtg genes, mRNA and Vtg between the crustacean species reported in databases with respect to that obtained from the transcriptome of Callinectes arcuatus, C. toxotes, Penaeus stylirostris and P. vannamei obtained with MiSeq sequencing technology from Illumina. Those analyses confirm that the Vtg obtained from selected species will serve to understand the process of vitellogenesis in crustaceans that is important for fisheries and aquaculture. RESUMEN La vitelogénesis de los crustáceos es un proceso que involucra la vitelina, producida a través de la endoproteólisis de su precursor llamado Vitelogenina (Vtg).

STEBBINS 1,* and DOUGLAS J. EERNISSE 2 1 City of San Diego Marine Biology Laboratory, Metropolitan Wastewater Department, San Diego, CA, USA 2 Department of Biological Science, California State University, Fullerton, CA, USA Abstract: About 36 species of chitons possibly occur at depths greater than 30 m along the continental shelf and slope of the Southern California Bight (SCB), although little is known about their distribution or ecology. Nineteen species are reported here based on chitons collected as part of long-term, local benthic monitoring programs or less frequent region-wide surveys of the entire SCB, and these show little overlap with species that occur at depths typically encountered by scuba divers. Most chitons were collected between 30-305 m depths, although records are included for a few from slightly shallower waters. Of the two extant chiton lineages, Lepidopleurida is represented by Leptochitonidae (2 genera, 3 species), while Chitonida is represented by Ischnochitonidae (2 genera, 6-9 species) and Mopaliidae (4 genera, 7 species).

Expression of parasite traits related to transmission, such as the manipulation of host phenotype, may peak in seasons when transmission is optimal. The acanthocephalan Acanthocephalus lucii is primarily transmitted to its fish definitive host in spring. We assessed whether the parasitic alteration of 2 traits (hiding behaviour and coloration) in the isopod intermediate host was more pronounced at this time of year. Refuge use by infected isopods was lower, relative to uninfected isopods, in spring than in summer or fall. Infected isopods had darker abdomens than uninfected isopods, but this difference did not vary between seasons. The level of host alteration was unaffected by exposing isopods to different light and temperature regimes. In a group of infected isopods kept at 4 xC, refuge use decreased from November to May, indicating that reduced hiding in spring develops during winter.

  • A Simulation of the Distribution of Acartia Clausi During Oregon Upwelling, August 1973
    Journal of Plankton Research Volume 2 Number 1 1980 A simulation of the distribution of Acartia clausi during Oregon Upwelling, August 1973 J.S.Wroblewski Department of Oceanography, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H4J1, Canada Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/plankt/article-abstract/2/1/43/1463810 by Old Dominion University user on 08 July 2019 (Received August 1979; revised November 1979; accepted December 1979) Abstract. The distribution of the estuarine copepod Acartia clausi in coastal waters off Oregon during an upwelling period in August 1973 is simulated. A time dependent, two dimensional (x, z, t) model relates maximum offshore extent of the copepod's four life stages (egg, nauplius, copepodite, and adult) to in- tensity of the wind stress driving the upwelling circulation, stage development time, and mortality. Realistic solutions are obtained by using actual intermittent wind forcing recorded by an anemometer at Newport. Offshore transport is overestimated when the circulation model is driven by theoretical con- tinuous winds, suggesting zooplankton may be washed out of coastal upwelling zones (e.g. off Northwest Africa) which undergo periods of prolonged upwelling. With an accurate model of offshore transport and stage development time, the mismatch between predicted and observed distributions may be used to estimate field mortality of the various stages. Introduction Zooplankton standing stock was once believed to be greater in the slope region off Oregon than over the continental shelf during the summer upwelling season. Peterson (1972) surveyed the oceanic, slope and shelf regions but did not sample the nearshore zone when making this conclusion. In a detailed study of the Oregon up- welling zone, Peterson and Miller (1975) found high concentrations of copepods in the upper 20 m of the water column within 15 km of the coast during the 1969-71 upwelling seasons, as did Myers (1975) in August, 1973.
