This work aims at reporting the first records of four species off the southwestern Iberian 18 Peninsula, namely oceanic puffer Lagocephalus lagocephalus Linnaeus, 1758, Madeira rockfish 19 Scorpaena maderensis Valenciennes, 1833, ornate wrasse Thalassoma pavo Linnaeus, 1758, and bearded 20 fireworm Hermodice carunculata Pallas, 1766. These last three species, along with other occurrences of 21 aquatic fauna and flora along the Portuguese coast, reveal an ongoing process of poleward expansion 22 of several species for which a comprehensive survey along the entire Iberian Peninsula is urgent. The 23 putative origins of these subtropical and tropical species off continental Portugal are discussed, as 24 well as the urgent need of public awareness due to potential health risks resulting from the toxicity 25 of two of the four species reported in this paper.

  • Enhancing Diversity Knowledge Through Marine Citizen Science and Social Platforms: the Case of Hermodice Carunculata (Annelida, Polychaeta)

The case study of this work is the bearded fireworm Hermodice carunculata, a charismatic species spreading from the southern Mediterranean probably in relation to global warming. To achieve research objectives, some emerging technologies (mainly social platforms) were combined with web ecological knowledge (i.e., data, pictures and videos about the target species published on the WWW for non-scientific purposes) and questionnaires, in order to invite people to collect ecological data on the amphinomid worm from the Adriatic Sea and to interact with involved people. In order to address future fruitful citizen science campaigns, strengths and weakness of each used method were illustrated; for example, the importance of informing and thanking involved people by customizing interactions with citizens was highlighted. Moreover, a decisive boost in people engagement may be obtained through sharing the information about citizen science project in online newspapers. Finally, the work provides novel scientific information on the polychete’s distribution, the northernmost occurrence record of H.

    © Copyright Australian Museum, 1999 Records of the Australian Museum, Supplement 25 (1999). ISBN 0-7313-8856-9 The Namanereidinae (Polychaeta: Nereididae). Part 1, Taxonomy and Phylogeny CHRISTOPHER J. GLASBY National Institute for Water & Atmospheric Research, PO Box 14-901, Kilbirnie, Wellington, New Zealand [email protected] ABSTRACT. A cladistic analysis and taxonomic revision of the Namanereidinae (Nereididae: Polychaeta) is presented. The cladistic analysis utilising 39 morphological characters (76 apomorphic states) yielded 10,000 minimal-length trees and a highly unresolved Strict Consensus tree. However, monophyly of the Namanereidinae is supported and two clades are identified: Namalycastis containing 18 species and Namanereis containing 15 species. The monospecific genus Lycastoides, represented by L. alticola Johnson, is too poorly known to be included in the analysis. Classification of the subfamily is modified to reflect the phylogeny. Thus, Namalycastis includes large-bodied species having four pairs of tentacular cirri; autapomorphies include the presence of short, subconical antennae and enlarged, flattened and leaf-like posterior cirrophores. Namanereis includes smaller-bodied species having three or four pairs of tentacular cirri; autapomorphies include the absence of dorsal cirrophores, absence of notosetae and a tripartite pygidium. Cryptonereis Gibbs, Lycastella Feuerborn, Lycastilla Solís-Weiss & Espinasa and Lycastopsis Augener become junior synonyms of Namanereis. Thirty-six species are described, including seven new species of Namalycastis (N. arista n.sp., N. borealis n.sp., N. elobeyensis n.sp., N. intermedia n.sp., N. macroplatis n.sp., N. multiseta n.sp., N. nicoleae n.sp.), four new species of Namanereis (N. minuta n.sp., N. serratis n.sp., N. stocki n.sp., N.

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.

However, Schlegel’s name is an incorrect subsequent spelling for Ocydromus Wagler, 1830 (Aves, Gruiformes, Rallidae) and is not an available name. Consequently, Oxydromus Grube, 1855 must be reinstated for this hesionid polychaete genus. A check-list of valid species of Oxydromus including 30 new combinations is provided. Keywords Nomenclature, taxonomy, hesionid, Phyllodocida, Annelida Introduction Grube (1855) proposed Oxydromus within the polychaete family Phyllodocidae for O. fasciatus Grube, 1855, a new species capable of rapid movement from two Mediter- ranean Sea localities: Trieste (Italy) and Villa Franca (probably Villefranche-sur-Mer, France).

Memoirs of Museum Victoria 71: 247–269. Annelida, traditionally divided into Polychaeta and Clitellata, is an evolutionary ancient and ecologically important group today usually considered to be monophyletic. However, there is a long debate regarding the in-group relationships as well as the direction of evolutionary changes within the group. This debate is correlated to the extraordinary evolutionary diversity of this group. Although annelids may generally be characterised as organisms with multiple repetitions of identically organised segments and usually bearing certain other characters such as a collagenous cuticle, chitinous chaetae or nuchal organs, none of these are present in every subgroup. This is even true for the annelid key character, segmentation. The first morphology-based cladistic analyses of polychaetes showed Polychaeta and Clitellata as sister groups.

  • Celomic Cells of the Marine Fireworm Hermodice Carunculata (Annelida, Polychaeta)
    ISJ 13: 18-22, 2016 ISSN 1824-307X RESEARCH REPORT Celomic cells of the marine fireworm Hermodice carunculata (Annelida, Polychaeta) A Franchini, R Simonini, E Ottaviani Department of Life Sciences, University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Modena, Italy Accepted January 11, 2016 Abstract We have examined the morphological and functional characteristics of the celomic cells in the marine fireworm Hermodice carunculata. The cells differ in morphology, in relation to the presence of cytoplasmic granules, adhere to the glass, phagocytize zymosan A particles and contain ACTH-like molecules. We suggest the presence of only one cell type in the worm celomic fluid, i.e., the immunocyte described in other invertebrates. Key Words: polychete; Hermodice carunculata; celomic cells; immunocyte Introduction Materials and Methods Dhainaut and Porchet-Hennerè (1988) Animals described the presence of five main types of The bearded fireworm Hermodice carunculata amebocytes in several species of polychetes. These is a large size amphinomid polychete (25 - 30 cm defense cells were called granulocytes by Baskin length) living in the coastal areas of the Central (1974) and it is to be emphasized that not all the cell Atlantic Ocean and Central and Eastern types were observed in every polychete species; for Mediterranean Sea (Ahrens et al., 2013). The example three types of granulocytes, that can be specimens used in this study were collected on the separated by selective agglutination with lectins, cost of Porto Cesario (Lecce, Italy) and maintained were reported in Nereis diversicolor (M’Beri et al., in a recirculating aquaria system at 25 °C. 1988; Porchet-Henneré, 1990). Regarding the functions, it has been demonstrated that the cells Celomic cells play a role in cellular responses, including The celomic fluid of H.
