The seven species are 1) Callinectes sapidus (blå svømmekrabbe), 2) Eriocheir sinensis (kinesisk uldhånds- krabbe), 3) Hemigrapsus sanguineus (stribet klippekrabbe), 4) Hemigrapsus takanoi (pensel-klippekrabbe), 5) Homarus ameri- canus (amerikansk hummer), 6) Paralithodes camtschaticus (Kamchatka-krabbe) and 7) Rhithropanopeus harrisii (østameri- kansk brakvandskrabbe). The following three are new developments: Callinectes sapidus, Hemigrapsus sanguineus and Hemi- grapsus takanoi, whilst the remaining four previously developed under earlier phases of the MONIS projects have been tested again. The additional tests on the four previously developed assays were performed with a broader diversity of Decapoda known from Danish seas, to re-evaluate the specificity of these assays. This additional testing revealed that two previously pub- lished assays were unspecific, and to accommodate this, two new assays are presented replacing those previously published. We recommend that the species-specific eDNA assays presented here will allow for continuous monitoring of these species as part of the NOVANA monitoring programme. Four keywords Fire emneord 1.

Knudsen, Jesper H. Andersen og Peter Rask Møller Udgiver: Norsk institutt for vannforskning, ISBN 978-82-577-7279-6 For at kunne spore ikke-hjemmehørende arter af marine invasive tibenede krebsdyr, ved hjælp af DNA-niveauer i filtrerede vandprøver, er der for denne rapport udviklet og testet tre nye artsspeci- fikke sporingssystemer, og for overblikkets skyld er fire tidligere udviklede og testede eDNA-sporings- systemer ligeledes efterkontrolleret, testet igen og enten inkluderet igen, eller erstattet af mere præcise eDNA-sporingssystemer. Ved brug af kvantitativ PCR (quantitative polymerase chain reaction) (qPCR) er det med disse systemer nu muligt at spore eDNA i vandprøver fra seks ikke-hjemmehørende tibenede krebsdyr i danske farvande, og det er muligt at vurdere niveauerne af miljø-DNA (environmental DNA, eDNA) i vandprøverne fra de enkelte arter. Alle syv sporingssystemer er blevet designet og testet både på DNA fra vævsprøver fra de eftersøgte arter, men også på DNA fra andre sameksisterende og hjemmehørende arter repræsenterende marine tibenede krebsdyr (Decapoda). De tre nye sporingssystemer er her eftervist som værende artsspecifikke og således i stand til at spore DNA fra ’pensel klippekrabbe’, ’den blå svømmekrabbe’ og ’stribet klippe-krabbe’. Specificiteten for hvert sporingssystem er eftervist først ud fra sammenligning af nukleotidsekvenser hvor de enkelte primere og en passende ’hydrolysis probe’ kan binde til et specifikt område i det mitokondrielle genom for den eftersøgte organisme. Primer og probe kombinationen er derpå testet under standardiserede temperaturomstændigheder i en qPCR opsætning, hvor den unikke sammen- sætning af nukleinsyrer i DNA sekvensen er med til at sikre at kun DNA fra den eftersøgte art regi- streres. Med qPCR-tests af forskelige kombinationer af primere og prober kan effektiviteten og specificiteten af kombinationerne så vurderes for at finde frem til den optimale kombination der senerehen bør bruges på indsamlede vandprøver. Sammenligningen med nukleotid-sekvenser fra andre arter af tibenede krebsdyr blev udført ved at identificere variable gen-regioner i de mitokon- drielle genregioner: cytochrome oxidase 1 (mtDNA-co1) og cytochrome b (mtDNA-cytb). Nukleotid sekvenser af mtDNA-co1 og mtDNA-cytb blev enten indhentet fra en genetisk database eller ind- hentet ved de novo-sekventering af DNA ekstraheret fra vævsprøver indsamlet fra de syv arter.

P. Payne MSc Thesis, Department of Biodiversity and Conservation Biology, University of the Western Cape. Seamounts are poorly understood ubiquitous undersea features, with less than 4% sampled for scientific purposes globally. Consequently, the fauna associated with seamounts in the Indian Ocean remains largely unknown, with less than 300 species recorded. One such feature within this region is Walters Shoal, a shallow seamount located on the South Madagascar Ridge, which is situated approximately 400 nautical miles south of Madagascar and 600 nautical miles east of South Africa. Even though it penetrates the euphotic zone (summit is 15 m below the sea surface) and is protected by the Southern Indian Ocean Deep- Sea Fishers Association, there is a paucity of biodiversity and oceanographic data.

STODDART Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia ABSTRACT. Twenty-three species of deep-water lobsters in the families Nephropidae, Palinuridae, Polychelidae and Scyllaridae are recorded from the continental shelf and slope off eastern Australia. Ten species and two genera have not been previously recorded from Australia. These are Acanthacaris tenuimana, Projasus parkeri, Polycheles baccatus, P. euthrix, P. granulatus, Stereomastis andamanensis, S. helleri, S. sculpta, S. suhmi and Willemoesia bonaspei. The deep­ water lobster fauna of eastern Australia is compared with those of other Indo-Pacific areas. A key is given to all deep-water lobster species recorded from Australian waters.

At 6 ± 0.5°C; total larval development from hatching to metamorphosis lasted ca. 56 d, comprising 2 demersal zoeal stages and a benthic mega- lopa, with mean stage durations of 5, 11 and 45 d, respectively. All larval stages of P. granulosa are lecithotrophic, and first feeding and growth were consistently observed immediately after meta- morphosis to the first juvenile crab stage. Regardless of presence or absence of food, W, C, N, and H decreased throughout larval development. Also the C:N mass ratio decreased significantly, from 7.2 at hatching to 4.2 at metamorphosis, indicating that a large initial lipid store remaining from the egg yolk was gradually utilised as an internal energy source.

For over 140 years, convergent evolution of the crab-like body plan (with a wide and flattened shape, and a bent abdomen) at least five times in decapod crustaceans has been known as ‘carcinization’. The repeated loss of this body plan has been identified as ‘decarcinization’. We offer phylogenetic strategies to include poorly known groups, and direct evidence from fossils, that will resolve the pattern of crab evolution and the degree of phenotypic variation within crabs. Proposed ecological advantages of the crab body are summarized into a hypothesis of phenotypic integration suggesting correlated evolution of the carapace shape and abdomen. Our premise provides fertile ground for future studies of the genomic and developmental basis, and the predictability, of the crab-like body form.

Ever increasing world trade and the resulting rise in shipping have highlighted the issue, demanding a response from the international community to the threat of non-native marine species. In the present study, we searched for available literature and databases on shipping and invasive species in the North-eastern (NE) and South-western (SW) Atlantic Ocean and assess the risk represented by the shipping trade between these two regions.

  • Prospects of Red King Crab Hepatopancreas Processing: Fundamental and Applied Biochemistry
    Preprints (www.preprints.org) | NOT PEER-REVIEWED | Posted: 12 September 2020 doi:10.20944/preprints202009.0263.v1 Article Prospects of Red King Crab Hepatopancreas Processing: Fundamental and Applied Biochemistry Tatyana Ponomareva 1, Maria Timchenko 1, Michael Filippov 1, Sergey Lapaev 1, and Evgeny Sogorin 1,* 1 Federal Research Center "Pushchino Scientific Center for Biological Research of the RAS", Pushchino, Russia * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +7-915-132-54-19 Abstract: Since the early 1980s, a large number of research works on enzymes from the red king crab hepatopancreas have been conducted. These studies have been relevant both from a fundamental point of view for studying the enzymes of marine organisms and in terms of the rational management of nature to obtain new and valuable products from the processing of crab fishing waste. Most of these works were performed by Russian scientists due to the area and amount of waste of red king crab processing in Russia (or the Soviet Union). However, the close phylogenetic kinship and the similar ecological niches of commercial crab species and the production scale of the catch provide the bases for the successful transfer of experience in the processing of red king crab hepatopancreas to other commercial crab species mined worldwide. This review describes the value of recycled commercial crab species, discusses processing problems, and suggests possible solutions to these problems. The main emphasis is placed on the enzymes of the hepatopancreas as the most highly salubrious product of waste processed from red king crab fishing.
