BULLETINS OF AMERICAN PALEONTOLOGY (Founded 1895) Vol. 59 No. 263 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF CENOZOIC ECHINOIDEA INCLUDING SOME MESOZOIC AND PALEOZOIC TITLES By Norman E. Weisbord February 18, 1971 Paleontological Research Institution Ithaca, New York 14850, U.S.A. Library of Congress Card Number: 70-H3026 Printed in the United States of America Arnold Printing Corporation BIBLIOGRAPHY OF CENOZOIC ECHINOIDEA INCLUDING SOME MESOZOIC AND PALEOZOIC TITLES Norman E. Weisbord* Department of Geology Florida State University FOREWORD This Bibliography was compiled originally for mclusion in the writer's 1969 paper titled, "Some Late Cenozoic Echinoidea from Cabo Blanco, Venezuela." As the work on that paper progressed, it became evident that the number of citations I wished to include were so numerous that they overwhelmed the main contents. It was thought advisable, therefore, to limit the references in the Venezuelan contribution to those cited in the text only, and to prepare a separ- ate bibliography which would be world-wide in scope. The present Bibliography is the result of that endeavor. In the volume presented herewith there is listed, through the year 1966, the titles, dates, and authors of literature dealing with 1) taxonomy; 2) skeletal morphology; 3) stratigraphy; 4) geological and geographical distribution; 5) paleoecology and ecology; and 6) such geological miscellany that pertain to the Echinoidea of the Cenozoic era, or Paleocene to Recent epochs. In addition to the Cenozoic, there are a number of Mesozoic and Paleozoic entries, especially those recorded in Lambert and Thiery's, "Essai de nomen- clature raisonnee des echinides" (1900-1925). In that classic there are numerous references to Mesozoic Echinoidea and a few to Paleozoic ones, and these publications on pre-Tertiary Echinoidea are so important or little-known, that I have included them in this work, correcting some of the dates and fleshing out the often ab- breviated citations. Many of the older books and periodicals referred to in this Bibliography have not been consulted in the original though all titles have been checked and re-checked in one source or another. Among the many sources are the following: Catalogue of the Library of the British Museum (Natural History), vols. I-VIII. Bibliotheca Zoologica, ser. 1, vols. 1,2; ser. 2, vols. 1-7.

The Bibliography consists of about 5,900 titles by some 2,600 authors, written in 22 different languages. Titles in English comprise 40.4 per cent of the total; French 28.4 per cent; German 14.5 per cent; Italian 8 per cent; Spanish 2.3 per cent; "Scandinavian" [Danish, Norwegian, Swedish] 2.2 per cent; Latin 1.3 per cent; Portuguese 1.2 per cent; Russian [and Polish] 0.9 per cent; and Hungarian 0.5 per cent. All of the foregoing account for 99.5 per cent of the citations. The remaining 0.5 per cent of the literature is written in Dutch, "Slavic" [Croatian, Czechoslovakian, Yugo- slavian, "Balkan" [Bulgarian, Rumanian, Serbian], Japanese, and Turkish. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my appreciation to the National Science Foundation for defraying part of the cost of publishing this Biblio- graphy. I again thank Dr. Katherine V. W. Palmer of the Paleon- tological Research Institution for editing and attending to all mat- ters that made issuance of the publication possible. And, I am very much indebted to Doris C.

  • 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.

By HUBERT LYMAN CLARK, Professor of Biology , Olivet College. As used in this report, the Woods Hole region includes that part of I he New England coast easily accessible in one-day excursions by steamer from the U. S. Fish Commission station at Woods Hole, Mass. The northern point of Cape Cod is the limit in one direction, and New London, Conn., is the opposite extreme. Seaward the region would naturally extend to about the 100- fathom line, but for the purposes of this report the 50-fathom line has been taken as the limit, the reason for this being that as the Gulf Stream is approached we meet with an echinodcrm fauna so totally different from that along shore that the two have little in common.

G. Muñoz1* and E. Londoño-Cruz1,2 Abstract Background: A first record of occurrence of the irregular sea urchin Lovenia cordiformis in the Colombian Pacific is herein reported. Results: We collected one specimen of Lovenia cordiformis at Gorgona Island (Colombia) in a shallow sandy bottom next to a coral reef. Basic morphological data and images of the collected specimen are presented. The specimen now lies at the Echinoderm Collection of the Marine Biology Section at Universidad del Valle (Cali, Colombia; Tag Code UNIVALLE: CRBMeq-UV: 2014–001).

Chicago Avenue, Tarry 16-717, Chicago, IL 60611-3008, USA b School of Mechanical Engineering, Georgia Institute of Technology, Atlanta, GA 30332, USA c Department of Cell and Molecular Biology, Northwestern University, Chicago, IL 60611, USA Received 19 June 2002, and in revised form 23 September 2002 Abstract This paper reports results of a novel approach, X-ray microCT, for quantifying stereom structures applied to ossicles of the sea urchin Lytechinus variegatus. MicroCT, a high resolution variant of medical CT (computed tomography), allows noninvasive mapping of microstructure in 3-D with spatial resolution approaching that of optical microscopy. An intact pyramid (two demi- pyramids, tooth epiphyses, and one tooth) was reconstructed with 17 lm isotropic voxels (volume elements); two individual demipyramids and a pair of epiphyses were studied with 9–13 lm isotropic voxels. The cross-sectional maps of a linear attenuation coefficient produced by the reconstruction algorithm showed that the structure of the ossicles was quite heterogeneous on the scale of tens to hundreds of micrometers. Variations in magnesium content and in minor elemental constitutents could not account for the observed heterogeneities. Spatial resolution was insufficient to resolve the individual elements of the stereom, but the observed values of the linear attenuation coefficient (for the 26 keV effective X-ray energy, a maximum of 7.4 cmÀ1 and a minimum of 2cmÀ1 away from obvious voids) could be interpreted in terms of fractions of voxels occupied by mineral (high magnesium calcite).

The spines of the G The northern Primorye (Sea of Japan) populations of S. intermedius form are longer, reaching and frequently exceeding two thirds of the consist of two sympatric morphological forms, ‘‘usual’’ (U) and ‘‘gray’’ testa radius. The testa is significantly thicker in the U form than in (G). The two forms are significantly different in morphology and the G form. The morphological differences between the U and G preferred bathymetric distribution, the G form prevailing in deeper- forms of S. intermedius are stable and easily recognizable (Fig. 1), water settlements.
