An Analysis of Complete Mitochondrial Genome and Received: 17 March 2015 Accepted: 12 June 2015 Ribosomal Data of Ramisyllis Published: 17 July 2015 Multicaudata
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN The making of a branching annelid: an analysis of complete mitochondrial genome and Received: 17 March 2015 Accepted: 12 June 2015 ribosomal data of Ramisyllis Published: 17 July 2015 multicaudata M. Teresa Aguado1, Christopher J. Glasby2, Paul C. Schroeder3, Anne Weigert4,5 & Christoph Bleidorn4 Ramisyllis multicaudata is a member of Syllidae (Annelida, Errantia, Phyllodocida) with a remarkable branching body plan. Using a next-generation sequencing approach, the complete mitochondrial genomes of R. multicaudata and Trypanobia sp. are sequenced and analysed, representing the first ones from Syllidae. The gene order in these two syllids does not follow the order proposed as the putative ground pattern in Errantia. The phylogenetic relationships of R. multicaudata are discerned using a phylogenetic approach with the nuclear 18S and the mitochondrial 16S and cox1 genes. Ramisyllis multicaudata is the sister group of a clade containing Trypanobia species. Both genera, Ramisyllis and Trypanobia, together with Parahaplosyllis, Trypanosyllis, Eurysyllis, and Xenosyllis are located in a long branched clade. The long branches are explained by an accelerated mutational rate in the 18S rRNA gene. Using a phylogenetic backbone, we propose a scenario in which the postembryonic addition of segments that occurs in most syllids, their huge diversity of reproductive modes, and their ability to regenerate lost parts, in combination, have provided an evolutionary basis to develop a new branching body pattern as realised in Ramisyllis. Annelids are a taxon of marine lophotrochozoans with mainly segmented members showing a huge diversity of body plans1. One of the most speciose taxa is the Syllidae, which are further well-known for their diverse reproductive modes. -

The analysis was undertaken using cutting-edge molecular techniques, with the view that over time these rapidly evolving techniques could be integrated into the current suite of assessment tools routinely used by industry partners and stakeholders. -
Zootaxa, Loandalia (Polychaeta: Pilargidae)
Zootaxa 1119: 59–68 (2006) ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) www.mapress.com/zootaxa/ ZOOTAXA 1119 Copyright © 2006 Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) New species of Loandalia (Polychaeta: Pilargidae) from Queensland, Australia SHONA MARKS1 & SCOTT HOCKNULL2 1 S. A. Marks. CSIRO Marine Research, PO Box 120, Cleveland QLD 4163. [email protected]. 2 S. A. Hocknull. Queensland Museum, 122 Gerler Rd Hendra QLD 4711. [email protected] Abstract Two new species of Loandalia are described from Queensland, Australia. Loandalia fredrayorum sp. nov. is described from Moreton Bay, south eastern Queensland and is distinguished from all other species of Loandalia by the presence of singular palpostyles; uniramous parapodia at chaetiger 1; an emergent notopodial spine at chaetiger 9; neurochaetae numbering 20–24; ventral cirri begin on chaetiger 7 and the pygidium with two lateral papillae-like anal cirri. Loandalia gladstonensis sp. nov. is described from Gladstone Harbour, central eastern Queensland and is distinguished from all other species of Loandalia by the presence of bifid palpostyles; chaetiger 1 uniramous with remaining chaetigers biramous; an emergent notopodial spine from chaetiger 7–8; ventral cirri present from chaetiger 5 and neurochaetae numbering 5–6. Key words: Loandalia fredrayorum sp. nov., Loandalia gladstonensis sp.nov., Pilargidae, Queensland, Australia, new species, systematics. Introduction Saint-Joseph (1899) established the Pilargidae for the new species Pilargis verrucosa Saint-Joseph. Prior to this, pilargids had been placed in several different families including the Syllidae, Hesionidae and Polynoidae (Licher & Westheide 1994). Recent cladistic analyses of the Phyllodocida firmly recognise Pilargidae as a distinct clade (Glasby 1993; Pleijel & Dahlgren 1998). -

During the reproductive period, the benthic marine worms leave the ocean floor and swim to the surface to spawn, using bioluminescent light for mate attraction. The behavioral aspects of the courtship ritual have been extensively investigated, but little is known about the origin and evolution of light production in Odontosyllis, which might in fact be a key factor shaping the natural history of the group, as bioluminescent courtship might promote speciation. -

TERESA AGUADO1*, ANNA MURRAY2 & PAT HUTCHINGS2 1Departamento de Biología, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Cantoblanco, 28049 Madrid, Spain. 2Australian Museum Research Institute, Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney, NSW, 2010 Australia. *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract Thirty species of the family Syllidae (Annelida, Phyllodocida) from Lizard Island have been identified. Three subfamilies (Eusyllinae, Exogoninae and Syllinae) are represented, as well as the currently unassigned genera Amblyosyllis and Westheidesyllis. The genus Trypanobia (Imajima & Hartman 1964), formerly considered a subgenus of Trypanosyllis, is elevated to genus rank. Seventeen species are new reports for Queensland and two are new species. Odontosyllis robustus n. sp. is characterized by a robust body and distinct colour pattern in live specimens consisting of lateral reddish-brown pigmentation on several segments, and bidentate, short and distally broad falcigers. Trypanobia cryptica n. sp. is found in association with sponges and characterized by a distinctive bright red colouration in live specimens, and one kind of simple chaeta with a short basal spur. Key words: Syllidae, Australia, taxonomy, new species Introduction The family Syllidae is one of the largest groups within Annelida in terms of the number of species. It is located within the clade Phyllodocida and part of Errantia (Weigert et al.
