Presentación espués de celebrar internacionalmente la vida sobre el planeta y el valor de la diversidad biológica en nuestro presente y futuro con la declaración universal del año de la biodiversidad, la humanidad fue Dinvitada a tomar acciones para salvaguardarla. Para ello, es imperativo reducir los vacíos en nuestro conocimiento de los grupos biológicos. La escasez de taxónomos y curadores científicos y el impacto que estas deficiencias tienen en nuestra habilidad de conservar, utilizar y compartir los beneficios de nuestra biodiversidad son una meta a remediar en el futuro cercano. En Colombia, el Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras “José Benito Vives de Andréis” Inve- mar, cumple con la labor de realizar investigación y dar a conocer a la comunidad la riqueza biológica mari- na con la que cuenta la nación, brindando las bases para encarar los vacíos existentes y para que los toma- dores de decisiones cuenten con herramientas valiosas para definir como velar y conservar la biodiversidad. El estudio de los equinodermos en Colombia se ha venido realizando desde la década de los 70’s, sin embargo, a partir del año 1998 se ha producido un avance significativo en el conocimiento de éstos inver- tebrados a lo largo del Caribe colombiano, tanto en aguas someras como profundas. Como un resultado de estos 13 años de investigación presentamos el primer catálogo de los equinodermos del Caribe colombiano que comprende las clases Crinoidea, Asteroidea y Ophiuroidea. Este esfuerzo mancomunado ha sido de- sarrollado en el Invemar por el Programa de Biodiversidad y Ecosistemas Marinos, específicamente por el Museo de Historia Natural Marina de Colombia MHNMC. El compromiso institucional con Colombia y con la variedad de vida en la tierra, es el de continuar aportando información de los diferentes grupos biológicos, a través de catálogos de fauna marina para que las futuras generaciones conozcan, valoren y protejan la diversidad marina de nuestro país. Francisco A. Arias Isaza Director General Invemar Davidaster rubiginosus Fotografía Valeria Pizarro Prólogo n simple paseo por la orilla del mar será suficiente para tomar conciencia de la relevancia que los invertebrados tienen en los ecosistemas marinos. Si escudriñamos las zonas rocosas no trascurrirá Umucho tiempo hasta que nos crucemos con un erizo de mar o un molusco. Bajo la mayor parte de las piedras encontraremos esponjas, crustáceos, pepinos y quizá alguna estrella de mar. El primer volumen de la obra Equinodermos del Caribe colombiano, elaborado por Milena Benavides Serrato, Giomar H. Borrero Pérez y Christian M. Díaz Sánchez, es un libro excelente sobre la taxonomía de las clases Crinoidea, Asteroidea y Ophiuroidea del Caribe colombiano, desde la superficie hasta mas allá de los 3,000 metros de profundidad. Es un placer observar la presentación de cada uno de los capítulos correspondientes a las clases men- cionadas: la amplia revisión bibliográfica, la cuidadosa descripción de los organismos, la sinonimia abre- viada de cada especie, los datos sobre la batimetría y la distribución geográfica en lo que fueron hallados los especimenes y las notas ecológicas, dan una clara idea del esfuerzo realizado, por demás extraordinario, para la culminación de este valioso compendio monográfico. El libro incluye fotografías de alta calidad tanto de especímenes conservados como vivos, algunas de las cuales son las primeras imágenes de ejemplares publicadas en color. La obra, es un estudio cuidadoso de 169 especies que beneficiará a los estudiosos de los equinoder- mos y en particular a los académicos especialistas en la materia. Esperamos con profundo interés el segundo volumen de esta monografía que servirá de base como consulta obligada para las futuras investigaciones sobre estos importantes organismos.

POMORY 2007 Department of Biology, University of West Florida, 11000 University Parkway, Pensacola, FL 32514, USA. [email protected] ABSTRACT A key is given for 85 species of ophiuroids from the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea covering a depth range from the intertidal down to 30 m. Figures highlighting important anatomical features associated with couplets in the key are provided. 2 INTRODUCTION The Caribbean region is one of the major coral reef zoogeographic provinces and a region of intensive human use of marine resources for tourism and fisheries (Aide and Grau, 2004). With the world-wide decline of coral reefs, and deterioration of shallow-water marine habitats in general, ecological and biodiversity studies have become more important than ever before (Bellwood et al., 2004). Ecological and biodiversity studies require identification of collected specimens, often by biologists not specializing in taxonomy, and therefore identification guides easily accessible to a diversity of biologists are necessary.

[email protected]; [email protected] 2 Museo de Ciencias Naturales Bernardino Rivadavia, Ángel Gallardo 470, Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, Argentina. [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT. Asterozoans are free living, star-shaped echinoderms which are important components of benthic marine faunas worldwide. Their fossil record is, however, poor and fragmentary, probably due to dissarticulation of ossicles. In particular, fossil asteroids are infrequent in South America. A new species of starfish is reported from the early Valanginian of the Mulichinco Formation, Neuquén Basin, in the context of a shallow-water, storm-dominated shoreface environment. The specimen belongs to the Astropectinidae, and was assigned to a new species within the genus Tethyaster Sladen, T. antares sp. nov., characterized by a R:r ratio of 2.43:1, rectangular marginals wider in the interbrachial angles, infero- marginals (28 pairs along a median arc) with slightly convex profile and flat spines (one per ossicle in the interbrachials and two per ossicle in the arms).

  • Glossary for the Echinodermata
    February 2011 Christina Ball ©RBCM Phil Lambert GLOSSARY FOR THE ECHINODERMATA OVERVIEW The echinoderms are a globally distributed and morphologically diverse group of invertebrates whose history dates back 500 million years (Lambert 1997; Lambert 2000; Lambert and Austin 2007; Pearse et al. 2007). The group includes the sea stars (Asteroidea), sea cucumbers (Holothuroidea), sea lilies and feather stars (Crinoidea), the sea urchins, heart urchins and sand dollars (Echinoidea) and the brittle stars (Ophiuroidea). In some areas the group comprises up to 95% of the megafaunal biomass (Miller and Pawson 1990). Today some 13,000 species occur around the world (Pearse et al. 2007). Of those 13,000 species 194 are known to occur in British Columbia (Lambert and Boutillier, in press). The echinoderms are a group of almost exclusively marine organisms with the few exceptions living in brackish water (Brusca and Brusca 1990). Almost all of the echinoderms are benthic, meaning that they live on or in the substrate. There are a few exceptions to this rule. For example several holothuroids (sea cucumbers) are capable of swimming, sometimes hundreds of meters above the sea floor (Miller and Pawson 1990). One species of holothuroid, Rynkatorpa pawsoni, lives as a commensal with a deep-sea angler fish (Gigantactis macronema) (Martin 1969). While the echinoderms are a diverse group, they do share four unique features that define the group. These are pentaradial symmetry, an endoskeleton made up of ossicles, a water vascular system and mutable collagenous tissue. While larval echinoderms are bilaterally symmetrical the adults are pentaradially symmetrical (Brusca and Brusca 1990). All echinoderms have an endoskeleton made of calcareous ossicles (figure 1).

Clark, 1911), that was collected from Geoje Island, at a depth of 47 m. The species is characterized by a small disk, covered by numerous fine scales, small radial shields that are wider than long, a small stumpy hook at the distal end of the radial shield, two tooth papilla, two adoral shield spines, 2nd adoral shield spine longer than other, tapered dramatically toward dull tip, five arms with four proximal arm spines, and two tentacle scales. We also obtained a 657 bp sequence from COI gene and the amplified sequence matched the general DNA barcoding region. The NJ and ML phylogenetic analyses revealed A. (A.) digitula as monophyletic in the Amphiura clade. This species is clearly distinguished from other Amphiura species by morphological characteristics and the mitochondrial COI sequence, and thus represents the sixth Amphiura species reported to occur in Korea.

    Marine Sanctuaries Conservation Series ONMS-13-05 The Natural Resources of Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary: A Focus on Federal Waters Final Report June 2013 U.S. Department of Commerce National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Ocean Service Office of National Marine Sanctuaries June 2013 About the Marine Sanctuaries Conservation Series The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s National Ocean Service (NOS) administers the Office of National Marine Sanctuaries (ONMS). Its mission is to identify, designate, protect and manage the ecological, recreational, research, educational, historical, and aesthetic resources and qualities of nationally significant coastal and marine areas. The existing marine sanctuaries differ widely in their natural and historical resources and include nearshore and open ocean areas ranging in size from less than one to over 5,000 square miles. Protected habitats include rocky coasts, kelp forests, coral reefs, sea grass beds, estuarine habitats, hard and soft bottom habitats, segments of whale migration routes, and shipwrecks. Because of considerable differences in settings, resources, and threats, each marine sanctuary has a tailored management plan. Conservation, education, research, monitoring and enforcement programs vary accordingly. The integration of these programs is fundamental to marine protected area management. The Marine Sanctuaries Conservation Series reflects and supports this integration by providing a forum for publication and discussion of the complex issues currently facing the sanctuary system. Topics of published reports vary substantially and may include descriptions of educational programs, discussions on resource management issues, and results of scientific research and monitoring projects. The series facilitates integration of natural sciences, socioeconomic and cultural sciences, education, and policy development to accomplish the diverse needs of NOAA’s resource protection mandate.

This hypothesis posits a sister relationship Phylogeny between asterozoan classes (Asteroidea and Ophiuroidea) and a similar relationship between echinozoan classes Asteroidea (Echinoidea and Holothuroidea). Despite this consensus around Asterozoa-Echinozoa, phylogenetic relationships Crown-group within the class Asteroidea (sea stars or starfish) have been controversial for over a century. Open questions Echinodermata include relationships within asteroids and the status of the enigmatic taxon Xyloplax.

Abstract: Faunal inventories are extremely important, especially when focused on neglected groups, such as echinoderms, and concentrated on areas under intense anthropic activity such as the São Sebastião Channel in Brazil (23°41’ - 23°54’ S and 45°19’ - 45°30’ W). Intertidal and upper sublittoral zone collections were per- formed at five sites of the Channel’s continental margin from May to August 2001. The rocky substrate down to 19 m deep was surveyed by snorkeling and SCUBA diving from August 2002 to May 2004, on both margins of the Channel: continental (14 sites) and insular (10 sites). We report a total of 38 species of echinoderms (one Crinoidea, nine Asteroidea, 13 Ophiuroidea, nine Echinoidea and six Holothuroidea). Seven of those species have been recorded here for the first time for the Channel (four Asteroidea, two Ophiuroidea and one Echinoidea). Rev. Biol. Trop. 53(Suppl. 3): 207-218. Epub 2006 Jan 30. Key words: Echinodermata, São Sebastião Channel, Brazil, Biodiversity, Benthic fauna. Echinoderms are widespread all over the been achieved only under general evaluation Brazilian coast.
