FOLLETT AND DANIEL M. COHEN CONCERNING THE TYPE-SPECIES OF THE GENUS BATHYLAGUS. Z.N.(S.) 1279 (see. Volume 16, pages 73-78) By G. S. Myers (Stanford University, California, U.S.A.) Mr. Follett having requested (in October 1961) that I give an opinion on this matter, I offer the following : I can see no obvious flaws in the argument as printed. Moreover, I understand that it would be zoologically advantageous to have Bathylagus antarcticus (rather than B. atlanticus) as the recognized type-species of Bathylagus, due to the fact that B. antarcticus is a better known species. However, I do have a strong comment in regard to the question of whether or not Jordan and Evermann (" Fishes of North and Middle America," 4 vols., 1896-1900 ; also " Checklist." Rep. U.S. Comm. Fish and Fisher., vol. 21) designated type-species of genera by the parenthetical citation of a species (trivial) name after the bibliographical citation of the generic name. To a user of the ichthyological works of D. S. Jordan (and his various collaborators and pupils) it is clearly evident that Jordan adopted the generic-type concept early in his career and used it thereafter throughout his work in systematic ichthyology. In fact he became the leader in the attempt to convert other ichthyologists to the following of a general code of nomenclature embodying that concept and other concepts of nomenclature. He and Gilbert designated generic type-species quite clearly after generic-type citations in their " Synopsis of the Fishes of North America" (1882), which, as Follett and Cohen make clear, was really a forerunner (or " first edition ") of " The Fishes of North and Middle America " (1896-1900). Moreover, Jordan was careful to see that his collaborators and many pupils in ichthyology made use of the concept of generic type-species citation. To agree, therefore, that Jordan (in collaboration with Evermann), in his most extensive work on ichthyology, published at the height of his ichthyological career, failed to cite type- species of genera simply because he adopted the abbreviated form of citing merely the species name in parenthesis, seems to me to be a purely legalistic argument not in accord with the known historical facts. These facts may be ascertained from a study of Jordan's own published papers. Moreover, having been personally acquainted with both Jordan and Evermann, and with many of Jordan's former pupils in ichthyology, I can state that the entire group of ichthyologists at Stanford accepted the parenthetical citations in Jordan and Evermann (1896-1900) for what they were intended to be ; citations of type-species. It is quite true that, in an infinitesimal minority of eases, Jordan and Evermann placed two names, or none, rather than one, in parenthesis after a generic name. Such inconsistency is to be expected in the state in which zoological nomenclature rested in 1896, and in a work which had been in the slow process of compilation (by Jordan and several collaborators) for nearly 20 years. It is true, also, in a work (the " Checklist ") intended to precede their larger work, but actually published a few months after the first of the four volumes of the larger monograph, that Jordan and Evermann stated, " The name in parenthesis following the reference to the generic name is that of the species taken by the describer as the type of the genus ". Nevertheless, it must be remembered that the attempt is being made to judge this work by an ex post facto rule. The best method of handling the matter of generic types had not yet been evolved by Jordan.

MAH Dept. of Invertebrate Zoology, Smithsonian Institution, Washington, D.C. 20007 Abstract Two new species of Goniasteridae, Astroceramus eldredgei n. sp. and Apollonaster kelleyi n. sp. are described from the Hawaiian Islands region. Prior to this occurrence, Apollonaster was known only from the North Atlantic. The Goniasteri- dae is the most diverse family of asteroids in the Hawaiian region. Additional in situ observations of several goniasterid species, including A. eldredgei n. sp. are reported. These observations extend documentation of deep-sea corallivory among goniasterid asteroids. New species occurrences presented herein suggested further biogeographic affinities be- tween tropical Pacific and Atlantic goniasterid faunas. Key words: Goniasteridae, Valvatida, deep-sea, Hawaiian Islands, predation Introduction Recent discoveries of new genera and species from deep-sea habitats along with new in situ video observations have provided us with new ecological insight into these poorly understood and formerly inaccessible settings (e.g., Mah et al. 2010, 2014; Mah & Foltz 2014). Hawaiian deep-sea Asteroidea are taxonomically diverse and occur in an active area of oceanographic and biological research (Chave and Malahoff 1998). New data on asteroids in this area presents an opportunity to review and highlight this diverse fauna.

  • The Status of Sabellaria Spinulosa Reef Off the Moray Firth and Aberdeenshire Coasts and Guidance for Conservation of the Species Off the Scottish East Coast
    The Status of Sabellaria spinulosa Reef off the Moray Firth and Aberdeenshire Coasts and Guidance for Conservation of the Species off the Scottish East Coast Research Summary Scottish Marine and Freshwater Science Vol 11 No 17 The Status of Sabellaria spinulosa Reef off the Moray Firth and Aberdeenshire Coasts and Guidance for Conservation of the Species off the Scottish East Coast B Pearce and J Kimber Introduction and Methodology Sabellaria spinulosa is a gregarious tube dwelling marine polychaete that is known to form extensive reef habitats across Europe. The reef habitats formed by S. spinulosa represent an important habitat for a variety of marine fauna and are thought to provide ecosystem services including the provision of feeding and nursery grounds for some fish species. S. spinulosa reefs have been identified as a priority for protection under the OSPAR Convention for the Protection of the Marine Environment of the North East Atlantic and Annex I of the Habitats Directive, in part due to the recognised decline in this habitat across Europe. Until recently, there was little evidence that this habitat occurred in Scottish waters. However, S. spinulosa aggregations with reef-like properties were observed repeatedly between 2011 and 2017 in seabed imagery collected through a variety of sources from the east coast of Scotland. The Scottish Government commissioned this research to assess the conservation status of the newly discovered S. spinulosa habitats and to develop guidance for the future management of this habitat on the east coast of Scotland. Video footage and still images collected from four surveys and ROV clips collected from a fifth, undertaken between 2011 and 2017 (Figure 1) were analysed comprehensively in accordance with established National Marine Biological Analytical Quality Control (NMBAQC) methodologies.

ISSN: 1502-4873 Diversity of Norwegian sea slugs (Nudibranchia): new species to Norwegian coastal waters and new data on distribution of rare species Jussi Evertsen1 and Torkild Bakken1 Evertsen J, Bakken T. 2013. Diversity of Norwegian sea slugs (Nudibranchia): new species to Norwegian coastal waters and new data on distribution of rare species. Fauna norvegica 32: 45-52. A total of 5 nudibranch species are reported from the Norwegian coast for the first time (Doridoxa ingolfiana, Goniodoris castanea, Onchidoris sparsa, Eubranchus rupium and Proctonotus mucro- niferus). In addition 10 species that can be considered rare in Norwegian waters are presented with new information (Lophodoris danielsseni, Onchidoris depressa, Palio nothus, Tritonia griegi, Tritonia lineata, Hero formosa, Janolus cristatus, Cumanotus beaumonti, Berghia norvegica and Calma glau- coides), in some cases with considerable changes to their distribution. These new results present an update to our previous extensive investigation of the nudibranch fauna of the Norwegian coast from 2005, which now totals 87 species. An increase in several new species to the Norwegian fauna and new records of rare species, some with considerable updates, in relatively few years results mainly from sampling effort and contributions by specialists on samples from poorly sampled areas. doi: 10.5324/fn.v31i0.1576.

Around 1,500 living species of starfish occur on the seabed in all the world's oceans, from the tropics to subzero polar waters. They are found from the intertidal zone down to abyssal depths, 6,000m below the surface. Starfish typically have a central disc and five arms, though some species have a larger number of arms. The aboral or upper surface may be smooth, granular or spiny, and is covered with overlapping plates.

  • Seasonal Variation in Community Structure and Recruitment of Benthic Decapods in a Sub-Tidal Cobble Habitat
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Vol. 206: 181–191, 2000 Published November 3 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Seasonal variation in community structure and recruitment of benthic decapods in a sub-tidal cobble habitat Martin Robinson*, Oliver Tully Department of Zoology, Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland ABSTRACT: Quantitative suction samples of benthic decapod fauna were taken in the south of Ireland during 1997. Some species settled into the area, but failed to persist to the first winter, while others were present in high numbers throughout the year. The duration of settlement was species- specific, ranging from several weeks to several months. Body size at settlement decreased with increasing temperature during larval development. Growth potential and early mortality of a number of decapod species was examined by separation of successive moult instars from length-frequency distributions. Seasonal lows in abundance and biomass of young of the year and for previously estab- lished decapod individuals were identified at the end of July and early August, which may represent the most suitable time to release juveniles for stock-enhancement purposes. Community structure differed between settlement season and over-wintering periods. Young-of-the-year community structure differed from that of previously established individuals, with higher abundance and num- ber of species recorded for the former. The data represent a baseline study of a widely distributed community and may support further work on species interactions, improving the accuracy of predic- tion of annual recruitment fluctuations.
