Phlebobranchia of CTAW
PHLEBOBRANCHIA PHLEBOBRANCHIA The suborder Phlebobranchia (order Enterogona) is characterised by having unpaired gonads present only on the same side of the body as the gut. As in Stolidobranchia, the body is not divided into different sections (such as thorax, abdomen and posterior abdomen) as the gut is folded up in the parietal body wall outside the pharynx and the large branchial sac occupies the whole length of the body. Usually the branchial sac (which is flat, without folds) has internal longitudinal vessels (although only vestiges remain in Agneziidae). Epicardial sacs do not persist in adults as they do in Aplousobranchia, although excretory vesicles (nephrocytes) embedded in the body wall over the gut are known to originate from the embryonic epicardium in Ascidiidae and Corellidae. Most phlebobranchs are solitary. However, Plurellidae Kott, 1973 includes both solitary and colonial forms, and Perophoridae Giard, 1872 are all colonial. Replication in Perophoridae is from ectodermal epithelium (rather than endodermal or mesodermal tissue the mesodermal tissue of the vascular stolon (rather than the endodermal tissue as in most as in Aplousobranchia). The process of replication has not been investigated in Plurellidae. Phlebobranch taxa occurring in Australia are documented in Kott (1985). Family level taxa are characterised principally by the size and form of the branchial sac including the number of branchial vessels and form of the stigmata; the form, size and position of the gonads; and the habit (colonial or solitary) of the taxon. Berrill (1950) has discussed problems in assessing the phylogeny of Perophoridae. References Berrill, N.J. (1950). The Tunicata. Ray Soc. Publs 133: 1–354 Giard, A.M. -

Species that aggregate often owe this to larval behaviour, and we ask 49 whether this predisposes ascidians to becoming invasive, by increasing their capacity to 50 maintain their populations. We explored the interactive effects of larval phototaxis and 51 geotaxis and conspecific adult extracts on settlement rates of a representative suite of 52 six species of ascidians that form aggregations in the field, including four aliens with 53 global distributions, and how they relate to adult habitat characteristics. -

Biodiversity Data Journal 4: e9273. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.4.e9273 Abstract Background The checklist of the ascidian fauna (Tunicata: Ascidiacea) of Greece was compiled within the framework of the Greek Taxon Information System (GTIS), an application of the LifeWatchGreece Research Infrastructure (ESFRI) aiming to produce a complete checklist of species recorded from Greece. This checklist was constructed by updating an existing one with the inclusion of recently published records. All the reported species from Greek waters were taxonomically revised and cross-checked with the Ascidiacea World Database. New information The updated checklist of the class Ascidiacea of Greece comprises 75 species, classified in 33 genera, 12 families, and 3 orders. In total, 8 species have been added to the previous species list (4 Aplousobranchia, 2 Phlebobranchia, and 2 Stolidobranchia). Aplousobranchia was the most speciose order, followed by Stolidobranchia. Most species belonged to the families Didemnidae, Polyclinidae, Pyuridae, Ascidiidae, and Styelidae; these 4 families comprise 76% of the Greek ascidian species richness. The present effort revealed the limited taxonomic research effort devoted to the ascidian fauna of Greece, © Antoniadou C et al. -
Assessing the Sensitivity of Sublittoral Rock Habitats to Pressures Associated with Marine Activities

September 2016 © JNCC, Peterborough 2016 ISSN 0963-8901 For further information please contact: Joint Nature Conservation Committee Monkstone House City Road Peterborough PE1 1JY http://jncc.defra.gov.uk This report should be cited as: Maher, E., Cramb, P., de Ros Moliner, A., Alexander, D. & Rengstorf, A. 2016. Assessing the sensitivity of sublittoral rock habitats to pressures associated with marine activities. Marine Ecological Surveys Ltd – A report for the Joint Nature Conservation Committee. JNCC Report No. 589B. JNCC, Peterborough. Summary There are numerous human activities which occur in the marine environment. These activities can cause a variety of pressures on the seafloor habitats and the species they support. These pressures can occur in isolation or in combination, and their effects can be complex. To better understand the implications of anthropogenic pressures, it is crucial to be aware of how the pressures affect different species and functional ecological groups. The sensitivity of marine habitats has previously been assessed by Tillin et al (2010) and Tillin and Tyler-Walters (2014). Work by Tillin et al (2010) focused on the species, habitats and broadscale habitats recommended for designation within Marine Conservation Zones (MCZs) as part of a wider project (Tillin et al 2010). Tillin and Tyler-Walters (2014) focussed on systematic habitat level assessments of subtidal sedimentary habitats. Where possible, assessments were determined using available evidence and expert judgement. The aim of this project is to use the methods developed by Tillin and Tyler-Walters (2014) to assess the sensitivity of pre-defined ecological groups in sublittoral rock habitats in the UK to various anthropogenic pressures. -
Decapoda: Brachyura)
^^z^ JOURNAL OF CRUSTACEAN BIOLOGY, 16(3): 556-563, 1996 r PARTIAL REVISION OF PINNOTHERID CRAB GENERA WITH A TWO-SEGMENTED PALP ON THE THIRD MAXILLIPED (DECAPODA: BRACHYURA) Ernesto Campos ABSTRACT Two new genera in the Pinnotheridae are recognized from the northwestern Atlantic, Gem- motheres, new genus (type species Pinnotheres chamae Roberts, 1975) and Tunicotheres, new genus (type species Pinnotheres moseri Rathbun, 1918). These genera shared a 2-segmented palp on the third maxilliped with Calyptraeotheres Campos, 1990, Dissodactylus Smith, 1870, Ostracotheres H. Milne Edwards, 1853, and Xanthasia White, 1846. They differ in shape, texture, and hardness of the carapace, shape and relative length of third maxilliped articles, relative length of the walking legs, and relative length and shape of their articles. Comparisons among these genera are provided in a dichotomous key based on adult female characters. During the last five years I have studied Museum, Leiden, and Museum National d'Histoire the systematics of a subgroup of pinnothe- Naturelle, Paris; and Calyptraeotheres granti (Glassell, 1933), O. subglobosus (Baker, 1907), O. holothuriensis rid crabs which are characterized by a two- (Baker, 1907), Epulotheres sp., and other genera with segmented palp on the third maxilliped a three-segmented palp (see Campos, 1993; Manning, (lacking a dactylus). The first result of this 1993a), including P. pisum (Linnaeus, 1767) (type spe study was the erection of the genus Calyp cies of Pinnotheres Bosc, 1802), from the Inverte traeotheres Campos, 1990 (type species brates Collection, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad Autonoma de Baja California, Mexico.

República Saharaui, 2, E-11519 Puerto Real, Cádiz, Spain The pea crab Pinnotheres pisum was described by Linnaeus in 1767 as Cancer pisum and is the type species of the genus Pinnotheres Bosc, 1801, that at present contains 64 species (Palacios-Theil et al., 2016). This species has been so far studied due to its peculiar lifestyle as a symbiont of invertebrates (Orton, 1920; Atkins, 1958; Christiansen, 1959). Schmitt et al. (1973) provided a detailed list of hosts for P. pisum, mainly consisting of bivalves and in addition the ascidians Ascidiella aspersa (Müller, 1776) [as Ascidia aspersa Mueller, 1776], and Ascidia mentula Müller, 1776. However, after their detailed study of the pinnotherids along Europe’s coastal waters, Becker & Türkay (2017) concluded that P. pisum is, like other pinnotherids, not host-specific but still an associate only of bivalves. According to those authors, previous records in ascidians must be misidentifications of P. pisum that must have, on those occasions, been confused with Nepinnotheres pinnotheres (Linnaeus, 1758). After the review by Becker & Türkay (2017), an updated list of bivalves infested by P. pisum has been provided by Perez-Miguel et al. -

Recording Work Done at the Plymouth Laboratory
[ 823 ] Abstracts of Memoirs RECORDING WORK DONE AT THE PLYMOUTH LABORATORY. On Nocturnal Colour Change in the Pea-crab (Pinnotheres veterum). By D. Atkins. Nature, Vol. 117, 1926, pp. 415-116. Two pea-crabs, from the branchial chamber of Ascidia mentula, were seen to hide during the day beneath fragments of sodden paper. At night they emerged, the female at dusk,-the male an hour or more later, and were very active. Activity in the dark was accompanied in the male by loss of colour ; the female, in this case having no definite colour, suffered no appreciable change. The male was golden brown, shaded with dark brown, the colour being due to orange and dark brown chromato- phores, now fully expanded and their pigment diffuse. In the dark it became pallid and transparent, some faint yellow diffuse pigment only being visible ; the gut contents showed black, the testes white. This loss of colour is due to the retraction of the pigment in the chromatophores induced by the onset of darkness. Of the two pigments the orange had the quicker rate of flow, and is probably lodged in a smaller cell. The crabs when put in the dark during the day sometimes reacted as at night, taking forty to sixty minutes. When uncovered the male took the same time to regain its colour. D. A.
