  • Distribución Y Abundancia De Larvas De Langostino Colorado Pleuroncodes Monodon Frente a La Costa De Concepción, Chile
    Invest. Mar., Valparaíso, 22: 13-29, 1994 Distribución de larvas de langostino colorado 13 Distribución y abundancia de larvas de langostino colorado Pleuroncodes monodon frente a la costa de Concepción, Chile SERGIO PALMA G. Escuela de Ciencias del Mar Universidad Católica de Valparaíso Casilla 1020, Valparaíso, Chile RESUMEN. Se analiza la distribución y abundancia de larvas de langostino colorado Pleuroncodes monodon captura- das en cuatro cruceros oceanográficos efectuados entre abril y diciembre de 1991, frente a la costa de Concepción, Chile. Las muestras de zooplancton se obtuvieron en 15 estaciones oceanográficas, mediante pescas oblicuas con redes Bongo desde el fondo a superficie, con un máximo de 200 m de profundidad. En todos los cruceros realizados se observó la presencia de larvas de langostino, encontrándose la mayor abundancia en noviembre. Las mayores densidades de larvas se detectaron en aguas sobre la plataforma continental, particularmente en el norte del área de estudio. La biomasa zooplanctónica alcanzó valores máximos en abril y mínimos en junio, registrándose las mayores densidades en aguas de la plataforma, en el norte y sur del área de estudio. La distribución temporal de los distintos estados de desarrollo (zoeas y postlarvas), sugiere el desplazamiento desde la costa hacia el talud, a medida que avanza la metamorfosis larval. La distribución vertical de las larvas mostró una preferencia de los estados de zoea por el estrato 0-25 m, mientras que las postlarvas se concentraron en el estrato 25-50 m. Bajo 50 m de profundidad, se observó una escasa cantidad de individuos. Palabras claves: Pleuroncodes monodon, larvas langostino colorado, biomasa zooplancton, distribución espacio-temporal, abundancia.

The oxygen minimum zones in this region Hypoxia reaches oxygen levels as low as 0.1 kPa at depths within the crabs vertical range. Crabs maintain aerobic me- Zooplankton tabolism to a critical PO2 of ~0.27 ± 0.2 kPa (10 °C), in part by increasing ventilation as oxygen declines. At Hypometabolism subcritical oxygen levels, they enhance anaerobic ATP production slightly as indicated by modest increases in Vertical migration lactate levels. However, hypoxia tolerance is primarily mediated via a pronounced suppression of aerobic me- tabolism (~70%). Metabolic suppression is achieved, primarily, via reduced protein synthesis, which is a major sink for metabolic energy. Posttranslational modifications on histone H3 suggest a condensed chromatin state and, hence, decreased transcription.

Coral reefs are currently being threatened by ocean acidification (OA), which may lower calcification rates, reduce skeletal density, and increase aragonite dissolution. Crystallography and chemistry are what govern the materials properties of minerals, such solubility and strength. Thus, understanding the mineralogical nature of coral aragonite and how it forms are important for predicting bulk skeletal responses under climate change.

In total, 105 species of these parasites (~18% of all bopyrids) are documented from Recent squat lobsters and porcelain crabs in the superfamilies Chirostyloidea and Galatheoidea. Aside from one endoparasite, all the bopyrids reported herein belong to the branchially infesting subfamily Pseudioninae. Approximately 29% (67 of 233 species) of pseudionine species parasitize squat lobsters and 16% (38 of 233 species) parasitize porcelain crabs.

Porter, and Pleuroncodes monodon, Milne Edwards, family Galatheidae. are harvested commercially off Chile. A commercial fishery began by exploiting the first spe­ cies bur. has gradually shifted to harvesting the second. The fishery for Pleuroncodes began in 1966 off San Antonio {L. 33°3S"SJ but has gradually moved southward and now extends to Talcahuano (37°S). There are two possible explanations for this shift in fishing area; (1) increased fishing pressure, and (2) changes in the natural environment. Some support for the second explanation is seen by simultaneous changes observed in other species which may be due to cyclic changes in the environment. Data on the fishery has been collected from 1%b to the present from the area between Coquimbo (30°S) and Talcahuano by the Fisheries Development Institute of Chile (Instituto de Fomento Pesquero, IFOP) by monitoring the fleet at landing ports and from research surveys.
