List of marine mammal species with distributions which are known to overlap with the GRLA ............................................... 86 Preface The Gorda Ridge, a region of the northeastern Pacific seafloor located about 370 kilometers east of southern Oregon and northern California, is being explored and carefully mapped. One aim of the prospecting effort currently underway is the discovery of recent or past deep-sea hydrothermal vents and the attendant accumulations of metal- rich sulfide ores. Polymetallic sulfide deposits of significant size may be discovered, and these may eventually be commercially exploited. The Gorda Ridge Task Force and --ad hoc group is concerned with, among other things, evaluating the environmental and economic consequences of offshore mining activities. This group identified the assessment of scientific information relevant to biological processes in the region of the Gorda Ridge as a high-priori ty research area. To that end, in February 1985, the state of Oregon's Department of Geology and Mineral Industries contracted with Oregon State University (DOGMA1 Contract #63- 630-8501 ) for the production of this report. In brief this report presents the results of a thorough search of the scientific literature aimed at identifying and assembling the results of biological and ecological studies carried out in, or clearly relevant to the region of the Gorda Ridge Study Area (bounded by 40' to 46' N latitude and 130' W longitude to the continental shelf break). This region of seafloor included the Gorda Ridge, President Jackson Seamount Chain, and basins of Blanco Fracture Zone. The search of the scientific literature leading to this report was conducted using computer-assisted data retrieval systems, personal contacts with active researchers, and standard bibliographic references. The series of reports is divided into four parts: I. Plankton, 11. Benthos, 111. Seabirds, and IV. Nekton. This volume contains a review of the literature concerned with the nekton of the Gorda Ridge Lease Area. It has been divided into four sections dealing with I. Shrimps, 11. Cephalopods, 111. Fishes, and IV. Marine mammals. Within each section, biological processes (abundance and distribution, reproduction, growth, migration, food habits, and commercial exploitation) are summarized for each species for which there is information. This format is somewhat repetitive, but allows the reader the ability to find specific information on a species of interest without reading the whole document. I. SHRIMPS A. Studies Within the Gorda Ridge Lease Area The majority of studies dealing with pelagic shrimps in the Gorda Ridge Lease Area (GRLA) (Fig.1) have been done by W.G. Pearcy, C.A. Forss, R.A. Wasmer, and E.E. Krygier at Oregon State University (OSU). Collections of shrimps from midwater and bottom trawls have been used to describe the distribution and ecology of these nektonic animals. The majority were made off central Oregon between 70 and 130 km offshore between 1961 and 1976. Only for a few of the more abundant species are there data on abundance, reproduction, growth, migrations, or feeding habits. The following discussion will outline current knowledge regarding shrimp within the GRLA. Species omitted from discussion of individual processes indicates lack of data concerning that species. Pandalus jordani is included below, but it occurs usually only on the shelf. A few processes for which we have data on this species occur in the GRLA, and these are included below. Other information is relevant only to collections made on the shelf and has not been included. 1.

  • A Review of Southern Ocean Squids Using Nets and Beaks
    Marine Biodiversity (2020) 50:98 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12526-020-01113-4 REVIEW A review of Southern Ocean squids using nets and beaks Yves Cherel1 Received: 31 May 2020 /Revised: 31 August 2020 /Accepted: 3 September 2020 # Senckenberg Gesellschaft für Naturforschung 2020 Abstract This review presents an innovative approach to investigate the teuthofauna from the Southern Ocean by combining two com- plementary data sets, the literature on cephalopod taxonomy and biogeography, together with predator dietary investigations. Sixty squids were recorded south of the Subtropical Front, including one circumpolar Antarctic (Psychroteuthis glacialis Thiele, 1920), 13 circumpolar Southern Ocean, 20 circumpolar subantarctic, eight regional subantarctic, and 12 occasional subantarctic species. A critical evaluation removed five species from the list, and one species has an unknown taxonomic status. The 42 Southern Ocean squids belong to three large taxonomic units, bathyteuthoids (n = 1 species), myopsids (n =1),andoegopsids (n = 40). A high level of endemism (21 species, 50%, all oegopsids) characterizes the Southern Ocean teuthofauna. Seventeen families of oegopsids are represented, with three dominating families, onychoteuthids (seven species, five endemics), ommastrephids (six species, three endemics), and cranchiids (five species, three endemics). Recent improvements in beak identification and taxonomy allowed making new correspondence between beak and species names, such as Galiteuthis suhmi (Hoyle 1886), Liguriella podophtalma Issel, 1908, and the recently described Taonius notalia Evans, in prep. Gonatus phoebetriae beaks were synonymized with those of Gonatopsis octopedatus Sasaki, 1920, thus increasing significantly the number of records and detailing the circumpolar distribution of this rarely caught Southern Ocean squid. The review extends considerably the number of species, including endemics, recorded from the Southern Ocean, but it also highlights that the corresponding species to two well-described beaks (Moroteuthopsis sp.

Copyright © 2005 by the Alaska Department of Fish and Game Faunal Assemblage Structure on the Patton Seamount (Gulf of Alaska, USA) Gerald R. Hoff and Bradley Stevens ABSTRACT: Epibenthic and demersal assemblages of fish and invertebrates on the Patton Seamount in the Gulf of Alaska, U.S.A., were studied in July 1999 using the Deep Sea Research Vehicle Alvin. Faunal associations with depth were described using video analysis of 8 dives from 151 to 3,375 m. A cluster analysis applied to the observations suggests three benthic faunal communities based on depth: 1) a shallow-water community (151–950 m) consisting mainly of rockfishes, flatfishes, sea stars, and attached suspension feeders, 2) a mid-depth community (400–1500 m) also consisting of numerous attached suspension-feeding organisms such as corals, sponges, crinoids, sea anemones, and sea cucumbers and fish such as the sablefishAnoplopoma fimbria and the giant grenadier Albatrossia pectoralis both of which were aggregated over a relatively narrow depth range, and 3) a deep-water community (500–3,375 m) consisting of fewer attached suspension feeders and more highly mobile species such as the Pacific grenadier Coryphaenoides acrolepis, popeye grenadier C. cinereus, Pacific flatnose Antimora microlepis, and large mobile crabs Macroregonia macrochira and Chionoecetes spp.

Oliphant, and Ingrid L. K. Iverson 1971 1 2 ABSTRACT The authors investigated food habits of albacore, Thunnus alalunga, bluefin tuna, Thunnus thynnus, and bonito, Sarda chiliensis, in the eastern North Pacific Ocean during 1968 and 1969. While most stomach samples came from fish caught commercially off southern California and Baja California, some came from fish taken in central Califor- nia, Oregon, and Washington waters. Standard procedures included enumeration of food items, volumetric analysis, and measure of frequency of occur- rence. The authors identified the majority of forage organisms to the specific level through usual taxonomic methods for whole animals. Identification of partially digested animals was accomplished through the use of otoliths for fish, beaks for cephalopods, and the exoskeleton for invertebrates. A pictorial guide to beaks of certain eastern Pacific cephalopods was prepared and proved helpful in identifying stomach contents. This guide is presented in this publication. The study indicates the prominent forage for bluefin tuna, bonito, and albacore in California waters is the northern anchovy, Engraulis mordax. 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Food Habits Study of Organisms of the California Current System, (Project 6–7-R), was an investigation estab- lished under contract between the U.S.

Genetic differentiation in Berryteuthis magister from the North Pacific. - ICES mar. Sei. Symp., 199: 459-467. Berryteuthis magister is a widespread quasibenthic commercial squid from the North Pacific. Intraspecific genetic differentiation was determined by allozyme electrophore­ tic analysis. Eighteen sample lots (2100 individuals) from geographically separated North Pacific regions were subjected to allozyme electrophoretic analysis using a total of 14 enzymes and unidentified ganglion protein spectra with polymorphic zones. Four loci with variant allele frequencies greater than 0.05 were found to be useful for population studies. No significant violations of the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were found at any loci in the samples. There was no evidence of genetic differences between sexes. Analysis of genetic differentiation using Wright’s F-statistics, cluster analysis of genetic distances, and contingency chi-square analysis suggested that there are popu­ lation differences between squids from the three major geographical localities: the Sea of Japan, the Kurile-Komandor region, and the Gulf of Alaska. Genetic divergence between squid from the Kurile-Komandor part of the species range probably reflects subpopulation differentiation of local stocks from successive generations. O. N.
