POMORY 2007 Department of Biology, University of West Florida, 11000 University Parkway, Pensacola, FL 32514, USA. [email protected] ABSTRACT A key is given for 85 species of ophiuroids from the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea covering a depth range from the intertidal down to 30 m. Figures highlighting important anatomical features associated with couplets in the key are provided. 2 INTRODUCTION The Caribbean region is one of the major coral reef zoogeographic provinces and a region of intensive human use of marine resources for tourism and fisheries (Aide and Grau, 2004). With the world-wide decline of coral reefs, and deterioration of shallow-water marine habitats in general, ecological and biodiversity studies have become more important than ever before (Bellwood et al., 2004). Ecological and biodiversity studies require identification of collected specimens, often by biologists not specializing in taxonomy, and therefore identification guides easily accessible to a diversity of biologists are necessary.

ZooKeys 663: 1–19. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.663.11413 Abstract The first morphological observation of a euryalid brittle star,Asteronyx loveni, using non-destructive X- ray micro-computed tomography (µCT) was performed. The body of euryalids is covered by thick skin, and it is very difficult to observe the ossicles without dissolving the skin. Computed tomography with micrometer resolution (approximately 4.5–15.4 µm) was used to construct 3D images of skeletal ossicles and soft tissues in the ophiuroid’s body. Shape and positional arrangement of taxonomically important ossicles were clearly observed without any damage to the body.

Av. Vereador Olimpio Grande, S/N, CEP 49500-000, Itabaiana, SE, Brasil Abstract.- This study provides an updated morphological description of Asteroporpa (Asteroporpa) annulata based on one specimen from the northeastern coast of Brazil, thus validating the previously uncertain occurrence of this species there. We also provide notes on the known geographic distribution of the subgenus Asteroporpa (Asteroporpa) and comments on ecological aspects of this taxon. Given our limited knowledge of the Euryalida fauna along the Brazilian coast, these new records are important for understanding the distribution, dispersal and speciation patterns of this group. The number of Euryalida reported for the Brazilian coast is increased to eight with this record. Key words: Echinodermata, taxonomy, ophiurans, geographical distribution INTRODUCTION The order Euryalida represents a group of brittle stars, slowly than in other echinoderm taxa (Baker 1980).

  • Marine Biodiversity of an Eastern Tropical Pacific Oceanic Island, Isla Del Coco, Costa Rica
    Marine biodiversity of an Eastern Tropical Pacific oceanic island, Isla del Coco, Costa Rica Jorge Cortés1, 2 1. Centro de Investigación en Ciencias del Mar y Limnología (CIMAR), Ciudad de la Investigación, Universidad de Costa Rica, San Pedro, 11501-2060 San José, Costa Rica; [email protected] 2. Escuela de Biología, Universidad de Costa Rica, San Pedro, 11501-2060 San José, Costa Rica Received 05-I-2012. Corrected 01-VIII-2012. Accepted 24-IX-2012. Abstract: Isla del Coco (also known as Cocos Island) is an oceanic island in the Eastern Tropical Pacific; it is part of the largest national park of Costa Rica and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The island has been visited since the 16th Century due to its abundance of freshwater and wood. Marine biodiversity studies of the island started in the late 19th Century, with an intense period of research in the 1930’s, and again from the mid 1990’s to the present. The information is scattered and, in some cases, in old publications that are difficult to access. Here I have compiled published records of the marine organisms of the island. At least 1688 species are recorded, with the gastropods (383 species), bony fishes (354 spp.) and crustaceans (at least 263 spp.) being the most species-rich groups; 45 species are endemic to Isla del Coco National Park (2.7% of the total). The number of species per kilometer of coastline and by square kilometer of seabed shallower than 200m deep are the highest recorded in the Eastern Tropical Pacific. Although the marine biodiversity of Isla del Coco is relatively well known, there are regions that need more exploration, for example, the south side, the pelagic environments, and deeper waters.

  • The Effect of Sublethal Predation on the Biology of Echinoderms
    OCEANOLOGICA ACTA- VOL. 19- W 3-4 ~ -----~- Dis turban ce The effect of sublethal predation Predation Sublethal predation on the biology of echinoderms Echinoderms Perturbation Prédation Prédation sublétale Echinoderme John M. LA WREN CE a and Julio VASQUEZ b a Department of Biology, University of South Florida, Tampa, FL 33620, U.S.A. b Departamento de Biologia Marina, Universidad Cat6lica del Norte, Coquimbo, Chile. Received 17/01/95, in revised form 08/01196, accepted 11101196. ABSTRACT In contrast to plants, predation on animais is usually lethal. Analysis of the effect of predation on animal populations and on predator-prey dynamics typically assumes this is the case. However, sublethal predation occurs in echinoderms, primarily on the arms of crinoids, asteroids, and ophiuroids. Sublethal predation is important in the se echinoderms as it meets one of Harris' ( 1989) major crite­ ria, affecting basic biological processes such as acquisition of food and allocation of nutrients to growth and reproduction. Sublethal predation would have an effect on their ecological role. It is essential to consider sublethal predation in the analysis of the life-histories of these species. RÉSUMÉ Les effets de la prédation sublétale sur la biologie des échino­ dermes. A l'inverse de la plante, l'animal subit une prédation qui lui est habituellement mortelle. Ceci est confirmé par la plupart des analyses de prédation au sein des populations animales et de la dynamique prédateur/proie. Cependant une préda­ tion sublétale c'est-à-dire sans effet fatal, existe chez les échinodermes, principa­ lement chez les crinoïdes, astéries et ophiures. Pour répondre à cette définition, ce genre de prédation doit répondre au critère de Harris ( 1989) c'est-à-dire influencer les processus de base tels que la croissance et la reproduction et varier en fonction de la densité de la population en cause.

Recibido: 20 septiembre 2016; aceptado: 01 agosto 2017 Abstract A checklist of fishes recorded from Mar Muerto, La Joya-Buenavista, and Los Patos-Solo Dios lagoon-estuarine systems, northeastern Gulf of Tehuantepec, Mexico is presented. Fish samples were collected through 34 stations using several kinds of fishing gear, between April 2007 and May 2016. The checklist includes 2 classes, 19 orders, 52 families, 87 genera, and 120 species. The best-represented families are Carangidae (9 species), Gerreidae (7), and Engraulidae (6).

Abstract: An annotated brittle star list (Echinodermata: Ophiuroidea) collected by bottom trawling between 20 and 520 m depth during the INVEMAR-MACROFAUNA campaigns (1998-2001) along the continental shelf and upper slope of the Colombian Caribbean is presented. A total of 58 species were identified: 41 genera, 13 families and 2 orders, in which 35 species are new records for the Colombian Caribbean (28 are also new for the continental part of the Caribbean Sea). General and detailed figures are provided. Rev. Biol. Trop. 56 (Suppl. 3): 169-204. Epub 2009 January 05. Key words: Echinodermata, Ophiuroidea, new records, Colombia, Caribbean Sea. The Ophiuroid fauna of the Colombian MATERIAL AND METHODS Caribbean Sea has been specifically studied by Gallo (1988) who presented 17 shallow water Between 1998 and 2001, the Taxonomy, brittle-star species from Tayrona National Systematic and Ecology Group (GTSEM) from Natural Park. Caycedo (1979) and Álvarez the Colombian Institute for Marine and Coastal (1981) mentioned some ophiuroid species in Research (INVEMAR), carried out marine their revisions and Schoppe (1996) described a explorations (INVEMAR-MACROFAUNA on new Colombian species, Ophiothrix synoecina.
