Analyses of gene regulatory networks (GRNs) provide the tion (11), within the context of evolutionary time. After genomic ability to understand the underlying genetic and developmental novelties underlying differential body plan development have been mechanisms responsible for the origin of morphological structures identified, we can then consider the rates at which these novelties both in the development of an individual and across entire evolution- arise, and the rates at which GRNs evolve.

Using divergence time lows for the dating of the appearance of apomorphic GRNs, their estimation and ancestral state reconstructions, we have determined subcircuits, and particular network linkages using a combination of the age of the double-negative gate (DNG), the subcircuit which the fossil record, statistically derived divergence dates, and com- specifies micromeres and skeletogenic cells in Strongylocentrotus parative analyses of robust experimental data from extant organ- purpuratus.

Larvae of P. depressus did not metamorphose, but larvae of A. crassispina showed a high incidence of metamorphosis, especially in waters conditioned by coralline red algae or brown algae. High inductive activity for larval metamorphosis was detected in Corallina pilulifera-conditioned water during a 2.5-year investigation, but the activity was relatively low in February or March and in September, the off growth seasons of the alga. By contrast, Ulva pertusa-con- ditioned water did not show metamorphosis-inducing activity except in spring or early summer. These re- sults indicate that during their growth phase, red and brown

  • Marine Animal Behaviour in a High CO2 Ocean
    Vol. 536: 259–279, 2015 MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published September 29 doi: 10.3354/meps11426 Mar Ecol Prog Ser REVIEW Marine animal behaviour in a high CO2 ocean Jeff C. Clements*, Heather L. Hunt Department of Biology, University of New Brunswick Saint John Campus, 100 Tucker Park Road, Saint John E2L 4L5, NB, Canada ABSTRACT: Recently, the effects of ocean acidification (OA) on marine animal behaviour have garnered considerable attention, as they can impact biological interactions and, in turn, ecosystem structure and functioning. We reviewed current published literature on OA and marine behaviour and synthesize current understanding of how a high CO2 ocean may impact animal behaviour, elucidate critical unknowns, and provide suggestions for future research. Although studies have focused equally on vertebrates and invertebrates, vertebrate studies have primarily focused on coral reef fishes, in contrast to the broader diversity of invertebrate taxa studied. A quantitative synthesis of the direction and magnitude of change in behaviours from current conditions under OA scenarios suggests primarily negative impacts that vary depending on species, ecosystem, and behaviour. The interactive effects of co-occurring environmental parameters with increasing CO2 elicit effects different from those observed under elevated CO2 alone. Although 12% of studies have incorporated multiple factors, only one study has examined the effects of carbonate system variability on the behaviour of a marine animal. Altered GABAA receptor functioning under elevated CO2 appears responsible for many behavioural responses; however, this mechanism is unlikely to be universal. We recommend a new focus on determining the effects of elevated CO2 on marine animal behaviour in the context of multiple environmental drivers and future carbonate system variability, and the mechanisms governing the association between acid-base regulation and GABAA receptor functioning.

    NEMUS núm. 9. 2019 Sobre la descripció d’espècies noves de la classe Echinoidea (Echinodermata) durant el període 2014-2018 Vicent Gual i Orti1, Javier Segura Navarro1 & Enric Forner i Valls1 1. Ateneu de Natura. Sant Roc, 125, 3r. 5a. 12004 Castelló de la Plana. [email protected]. En el camp de la paleontologia el treball de descripció de les espècies que s’han conservat al registre fòssil està molt lluny d’haver conclòs. De manera que d’una manera dispersa i arreu del món hi ha un continu degoteig de publicacions on es descriuen espècies noves. Dins la paleontologia, l’equinologia, ocupa un paper significatiu tant a nivell científic com a nivell de col·leccionisme privat i museístic. Aquesta importància, potser està moti- vada per la bona conservació de la carcassa dels equínids, que està constituïda per calcita, cosa que afavoreix la seua fossilització i proporciona un registre fòssil ric de la classe Echinoidea. L’interès del treball és donar un visió global i actual dels treballs de descripció de la classe Echinoidea, de la qual no s’ha publicat cap treball de recopilació des de l’any 2008. Disposar d’una fotografia, una mostra, del que està passant ara. Per altra banda, es vol aprofundir en certs aspectes que sovint no són analitzats. Com el lloc geogràfic i les edats geològiques en les quals s’estan fent descripcions o en quines revistes científiques i per qui s’estan publicant les espècies noves. De l’estudi es conclou, atesos els treballs que s’ha pogut enregistrar, que durant els últims cinc anys, 2014-2018, s’han descrit al món 74 espècies noves d’equínids, per 77 autors, que s’han publicat en 30 revistes diferents, mitjançant 53 articles.

SUMMARY Periclimenes colemani, a new species of pontoniinid shrimp, is described and illustrated. This species was found at Heron Island on the Australian Great Barrier Reef. It lives in pairs on the test of the sea urchin Asthenosoma intermedium H. L. Clark. The new species is considered to occupy a rather isolated systematic position, most closely related to another echinoid associate, P. hirsutus Bruce. It is also remarkable for its cryptic white, red spotted colour pattern. The associations between Indo-West Pacific Periclimenes spp, and echinoids are briefly reviewed. INTRODUCTION The association of echinoderms with many species of the large pon- toniinid genus Periclimenes Costa, has been well established for many years but relatively few species have been found to occur in associations with echinoids. The first species to be reported as an echinoid associate was Periclimenes maldivensis Bruce, by Borradaile, (1915, as P.
