CHACE, JR. SMITHSONIAN CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY • NUMBER 222 SERIAL PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION The emphasis upon publications as a means of diffusing knowledge was expressed by the first Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution. In his formal plan for the Insti- tution, Joseph Henry articulated a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This keynote of basic research has been adhered to over the years in the issuance of thousands of titles in serial publications under the Smithsonian imprint, com- mencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Annals of Flight Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Astrophysics Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions to the Earth Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology Smithsonian Studies in History and Technology In these series, the Institution publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the research and collections of its several museums and offices and of professional colleagues at other institutions of learning. These papers report newly acquired facts, synoptic interpretations of data, or original theory in specialized fields. These pub- lications are distributed by mailing lists to libraries, laboratories, and other interested institutions and specialists throughout the world. Individual copies may be obtained from the Smithsonian Institution Press as long as stocks are available. S.

Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology, number 222, 51 pages, 37 figures, 1976.—Twelve species of Leptochela are described and illustrated, including L. hawaiiensis, new species, from Hawaii; L. irrobusta, new species, from the Red Sea to the Marshall and Samoa islands; and L. papulata, new species, from the Carolinas, Georgia, and the eastern Gulf of Mexico. Proboloura, new subgenus, is proposed for the types-species L. carinata Ortmann. The geographic distribution and sexual dimorphism of the species are discussed.

Eight species are new records for the area, raising the total number of carideans known from the Persian Gulf to 46.

E-mail: [email protected], [email protected] Abstract The family Pasiphaeidae is composed of seven genera, and only one of these genera, Leptochela, has been recorded from off Brazilian waters. From collections made during the Revizee Program — Central Score (between 11°–22°S and 200–2200m), four species are recorded for the first time from off the Brazilian coast: Pasiphaea merriami, Pasiphaea princeps, Parapasiphae cristata and Parapasiphae sulcatifrons. Key words: Pasiphaeidae, Pasiphaea, Parapasiphae, Brazil, Revizee Program Introduction The family Pasiphaeidae is composed of seven genera, with a worldwide distribution. Of these genera, only Leptochela Stimpson, 1860, typical from shallow waters, has been recorded from Brazilian coast. The known species of Leptochela from Brazilian waters are: Leptochela (Leptochela) bermudensis Gurney, 1939, from Maranhno and Piau’ states; Leptochela (Proboloura) carinata Ortmann, 1893, from Par< to Alagoas states; and Leptochela (Leptochela) serratorbita Bate, 1888 from Amap< to Pernambuco and Sno Paulo states (Ramos-Porto & Coelho 1998). During the Revizee Program — Central Score, a total of 130 trawls were made on the central Brazilian continental slope, from 200 to 2200 meters, between 11°S and 22°S (from Bahia to Rio de Janeiro states).

A key is provided for identification of six species of these species groups. RÉSUMÉ Révision du genre Leptochela (Crustacea, Decapoda, Pasiphaeidae) avec la description de deux espèces nouvelles. Huit esphces du genre Leptochela, sous-genre Leptoclzela, de l'océan Indien et de l'Ouest Pacifique sont étudiées, mettant en évidence les groupes d'esphces L. (L,)aculeocaudata et L. (L.) robusta. Deux esphces nouvelles sont décrites : L. (L.) chacei du Viet-Nam, de Nouvelle-Calédonie et de Madagascar, et L. (L.)crosnieri de Nouvelle-Calédonie. La position taxonomique des huit esphces est discutée dans chacun des groupes et une clef d'identification est fournie. INTRODUCTION According to CHACE'S(1976) revision, the genus Leptochela Stimpson was composed of two subgenera Leptochela and Probolura with 12 species. Recently, HANAMURA(1987) described the second species of the latter subgenus, which is the first representative of this subgenus from the Indo-West Pacific region. The other subgenus Leptochela contains eleven species (CHACE, 1976).

  • Mamala Bay Study Definition of Indicator Species for Pollution
    MAMALA BAY STUDY DEFINITION OF INDICATOR SPECIES FOR POLLUTION MONITORING IN MAMALA BAY, OAHU, HAWAII PROJECT MB-9 Principal Investigator: Julie H. Bailey-Brock Department ofZoology 2538 The MaD Honolulu, Hawaii 96822 July 3,1995 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY A multifaceted study of the sediment dwelling benthos was conducted in Mamala Bay to identify suitable species as indicators of sewage enrichment. There are five components to this study - 1) reproduction and life histories of potential indicator species, 2) seasonal abundance of each indicator species near the outfall and at the control site (Diamond Head) at 70m depth, 3) abundance and species richness of indicators and associated benthos at 6 sites and the control at 40m depth, 4) sediment grain size analyses at each site to characterize the infaunal habitat, 5) CHN and Nitrogen analyses from the study area to elucidate the role of sewage in the organic content of the sediments. Each component is presented as a separate section as methods and analyses differ for each. This same format is used for the appendices. Sediment samples (7.6cm diam x 5.Ocm depth) were collected with a Van Veen grab from 40m and 70m stations. Live worms were removed from freshly collected sediment and cultured in the laboratory for developmental and life history information. Reproductive data was gathered for designated indicator species, <Neanthes arenaceodonta, Capitella capitata, Pionosyllis heterocirrata and Opluyotrocha sp. A). N. arenaceodonta was not successfully cultured as only two individuals were found. Progeny were obtained for the three others and Ophtyotrocha sp. A was the most successful in culture.

The dominant species (>1% of the total density) were Stegophiura sterea (10.4%) and two subtropical species, Mactrinula dolabrata (9.0%) and Acila divaricate (8.3%), respectively. The community structure of the megabenthos fell into four groups: the southeast, the southernmost region off Jeju Island, the frontal zone of the South Sea with C3, and a diagonal area from the south coast to the western side of Jeju Island. The total numbers of species, diversity, density and biomass were higher in the C3 region of the South Sea. Environmental factor analysis showed that differences in the megabenthos community were related to depth, gravel contents, and sorting value (σ). These results indicate that changes in the marine environmental conditions in the South Sea of Korea affect the megabenthos species’ composition and diversity. Key Words : South Sea, Frontal zone of South Sea, Megabenthos, Benthic community, Environmental variable 11.
