Collected at 2,116 m, it is the fourth-deepest stylasterid species known. Once thought to be absent from Hawai- materials and methods ian waters (Boschma 1959), four stylasterid species have been reported from this archi- The specimen was collected on the Okeanos pelago, primarily on seamounts and off small Explorer expedition to the Northwestern islands in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands Hawaiian Islands, which took place in August at depths of 293 – 583 m (Cairns 2005).

  • On Some Hydroids (Cnidaria) from the Coast of Pakistan
    Pakistan J. Zool., vol. 38(3), pp. 225-232, 2006. On Some Hydroids (Cnidaria) from the Coast of Pakistan NASEEM MOAZZAM AND MOHAMMAD MOAZZAM Institute of Marine Sciences, University of Karachi, Karachi 75270, Pakistan (NM) and Marine Fisheries Department, Government of Pakistan, Fish Harbour, West Wharf, Karachi 74900, Pakistan (MM) Abstract .- The paper deals with the occurrence of eleven species of the hydroids from the coast of Pakistan. All the species are reported for the first time from Pakistan. These species are Hydractinia epidocleensis, Pennaria disticha, Eudendrium capillare, Orthopyxis cf. crenata, Clytia noliformis, C. hummelincki, Dynamena crisioides, D. quadridentata, Sertularia distans, Pycnotheca mirabilis and Macrorhynchia philippina. Key words: Hydroids, Coelenterata, Pakistan, Hydractinia, Pennaria, Eudendrium, Orthopyxis, Clytia, Dynamena, Sertularia, Pycnotheca, Macrorhynchia. INTRODUCTION used in the paper are derived from Millard (1975), Gibbons and Ryland (1989), Ryland and Gibbons (1991). In comparison to other invertebrates, TAXONOMIC ENUMERATION hydroids are one of the least known groups of marine animals from the coast of Pakistan Haque Family BOUGAINVILLIIDAE (1977) reported a few Cnidaria from the Pakistani Genus HYDRACTINIA Van Beneden, 1841 coast including two hydroids i.e. Plumularia flabellum Allman, 1883 (= P. insignis Allman, 1. Hydractinia epidocleensis Leloup, 1931 1883) and Campanularia juncea Allman, 1874 (= (Fig. 1) Thyroscyphus junceus (Allman, 1876) from Keamari and Bhit Island, Karachi, respectively. Ahmed and Hameed (1999), Ahmed et al. (1978) and Haq et al. (1978) have mentioned the presence of hydroids in various habitats along the coast of Pakistan. Javed and Mustaquim (1995) reported Sertularia turbinata (Lamouroux, 1816) from Manora Channel, Karachi. The present paper describes eleven species of Cnidaria collected from the Pakistani coast all of which are new records for Pakistan.

The seasonal abundance and distribution of the dominant species of hydromedusae along a salinity gradient within the Gironde Estuary, Atlantic coast of France, were evaluated based on monthly surveys, June 2013 to April 2014. The results confirmed the presence of three species considered to be introduced in many coastal ecosystems around the world: Nemopsis bachei (Agassiz, 1849), Blackfordia virginica (Mayer, 1910), and Maeotias marginata (Modeer, 1791). These species were found at salinities ranging from 0 to 22.9 and temperatures ranging from 14.5 to 26.6 ºC, demonstrating their tolerance to a wide range of estuarine environmental conditions.

  • The First Record of Bougainvillia Principis (Steenstrup, 1850) (Hydrozoa: Anthoathecata) from the White Sea
    Invertebrate Zoology, 2018, 15(4): 333–339 © INVERTEBRATE ZOOLOGY, 2018 The first record of Bougainvillia principis (Steenstrup, 1850) (Hydrozoa: Anthoathecata) from the White Sea A.A. Prudkovsky1, T.V. Neretina2,3 1 Dept. Invertebrate Zoology, Faculty of Biology, Lomonosov Moscow State University, Leninskie Gory 1–12, 119991 Moscow, Russia. E-mail: [email protected] 2 Pertsov White Sea Biological Station, Biological Faculty, Moscow State University M.V. Lomonos- ov, Leninskie Gory 1-12, 119991 Moscow, Russia. 3 Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University, Ostrovitianov 1, 117997 Moscow, Russia. ABSTRACT: Hydroids are common components of fouling communities in the sea, but they are often inconspicuous and easily overlooked. In such cases, the appearance of their medusae in plankton is an obvious indicator of the species’ presence in a locality. In this study, we present the first record of medusae Bougainvillia principis from the White Sea. We hypothesize that hydroids of the species B. principis inhabit the White Sea, as well, but they do not usually produce medusae and consequently the species does not exhibit sexual reproduction in the White Sea.

    Zootaxa 1595: 53–59 (2007) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2007 · Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) The hydroid and medusa of Amphinema rollinsi (Cnidaria: Hydrozoa), a new species of pandeid from the Monterey Bay Submarine Canyon, USA CHAD L. WIDMER Husbandry Division, Monterey Bay Aquarium, 886 Cannery Row, Monterey, California 93940, USA. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract A new species of pandeid hydromedusa is described from the Monterey Bay Submarine Canyon, California. Using a remotely operated vehicle, hydroid colonies were collected from artificial substrates that had been emplaced there at a depth of 1019m for five months. Material was returned alive to the laboratory and placed in culture. Medusae released from the hydroids were raised to maturity. Both hydroids and medusae possessed morphological characters correspond- ing to the genus Amphinema, but neither stage matched descriptions of those of any known species in the genus. Amphinema rollinsi, sp. n., is described herein based on characters of the field-collected hydroid colonies and their labo- ratory-raised medusae. Key words: Leptolida, Pandeidae, deep-sea jellyfish, taxonomy Introduction Hydroid colonies described herein were found growing on artificial substrates that had been placed at a depth of 1019m for five months during 2006 in Monterey Bay Submarine Canyon, California. Live specimens were taken to the Monterey Bay Aquarium jelly laboratory (MBAJ-lab) for culturing. Medusae released from these hydroids were raised to maturity under laboratory conditions. Both polypoid and medusoid stages possessed morphological characters corresponding to Amphinema Haeckel, 1879 (Kramp 1961; Bouillon et al. 2006), but not with any previously described species of the genus.

Abstract The fresh water polyp Hydra provides textbook experimental demonstration of positional information gradients and regeneration processes. Developmental biologists are thus familiar with Hydra, but may not appreciate that it is a relatively simple member of the Hydrozoa, a group of mostly marine cnidarians with complex and diverse life cycles, exhibiting extensive phenotypic plasticity and regenerative capabilities.

  • CNIDARIA Corals, Medusae, Hydroids, Myxozoans
    FOUR Phylum CNIDARIA corals, medusae, hydroids, myxozoans STEPHEN D. CAIRNS, LISA-ANN GERSHWIN, FRED J. BROOK, PHILIP PUGH, ELLIOT W. Dawson, OscaR OcaÑA V., WILLEM VERvooRT, GARY WILLIAMS, JEANETTE E. Watson, DENNIS M. OPREsko, PETER SCHUCHERT, P. MICHAEL HINE, DENNIS P. GORDON, HAMISH J. CAMPBELL, ANTHONY J. WRIGHT, JUAN A. SÁNCHEZ, DAPHNE G. FAUTIN his ancient phylum of mostly marine organisms is best known for its contribution to geomorphological features, forming thousands of square Tkilometres of coral reefs in warm tropical waters. Their fossil remains contribute to some limestones. Cnidarians are also significant components of the plankton, where large medusae – popularly called jellyfish – and colonial forms like Portuguese man-of-war and stringy siphonophores prey on other organisms including small fish. Some of these species are justly feared by humans for their stings, which in some cases can be fatal. Certainly, most New Zealanders will have encountered cnidarians when rambling along beaches and fossicking in rock pools where sea anemones and diminutive bushy hydroids abound. In New Zealand’s fiords and in deeper water on seamounts, black corals and branching gorgonians can form veritable trees five metres high or more. In contrast, inland inhabitants of continental landmasses who have never, or rarely, seen an ocean or visited a seashore can hardly be impressed with the Cnidaria as a phylum – freshwater cnidarians are relatively few, restricted to tiny hydras, the branching hydroid Cordylophora, and rare medusae. Worldwide, there are about 10,000 described species, with perhaps half as many again undescribed. All cnidarians have nettle cells known as nematocysts (or cnidae – from the Greek, knide, a nettle), extraordinarily complex structures that are effectively invaginated coiled tubes within a cell.
