    Published in collaboration with the University of Bergen and the Institute of Marine Research, Norway The genus Monocoryne (Hydrozoa, Capitata): peculiarities of morphology, species composition, biology and distribution Sofia D. Stepanjants, Bengt O. Christiansen, Armin Svoboda & Boris A. Anokhin SARSIA Stepanjants SD, Christiansen BO, Svoboda A, Anokhin BA. 2003. The genus Monocoryne (Hydrozoa, Capitata): peculiarities of morphology, species composition, biology and distribution. Sarsia 88:97– 106. A revision of the genus Monocoryne was undertaken following analysis of peculiarities noted in earlier descriptions of the nominal species. Type specimens of Monocoryne gigantea from northern Norway and Monocoryne minor from South Africa were examined. In addition, non-type material from the Arctic Ocean, Antarctic Seas and the Kuril Islands was studied, and descriptions of species from Alaska and the Canadian Archipelago were investigated. A new diagnosis of the genus Monocoryne, provided here, was a necessary outcome of these studies. Most importantly, hydroids (in species of the genus) are colonial or solitary which differ from Bonnevie’s original diagnosis. The collection of solitary polyps is a result of the tenuous nature of the colonies, which tend to fall to pieces. Species of Monocoryne are found in Arctic, Antarctic and temperate waters of the northern and southern hemispheres, and the genus may thus be regarded as bipolar. Although recognized species of Monocoryne are quite similar morphologically, four of them are recognized here to be valid based on current evidence. This conclusion is also supported by their distribution patterns. Sofia D. Stepanjants & Boris A. Anokhin, Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 199034 St.

Dawson, OscaR OcaÑA V., WILLEM VERvooRT, GARY WILLIAMS, JEANETTE E. Watson, DENNIS M. OPREsko, PETER SCHUCHERT, P. MICHAEL HINE, DENNIS P. GORDON, HAMISH J. CAMPBELL, ANTHONY J. WRIGHT, JUAN A. SÁNCHEZ, DAPHNE G. FAUTIN his ancient phylum of mostly marine organisms is best known for its contribution to geomorphological features, forming thousands of square Tkilometres of coral reefs in warm tropical waters. Their fossil remains contribute to some limestones. Cnidarians are also significant components of the plankton, where large medusae – popularly called jellyfish – and colonial forms like Portuguese man-of-war and stringy siphonophores prey on other organisms including small fish. Some of these species are justly feared by humans for their stings, which in some cases can be fatal. Certainly, most New Zealanders will have encountered cnidarians when rambling along beaches and fossicking in rock pools where sea anemones and diminutive bushy hydroids abound. In New Zealand’s fiords and in deeper water on seamounts, black corals and branching gorgonians can form veritable trees five metres high or more. In contrast, inland inhabitants of continental landmasses who have never, or rarely, seen an ocean or visited a seashore can hardly be impressed with the Cnidaria as a phylum – freshwater cnidarians are relatively few, restricted to tiny hydras, the branching hydroid Cordylophora, and rare medusae. Worldwide, there are about 10,000 described species, with perhaps half as many again undescribed. All cnidarians have nettle cells known as nematocysts (or cnidae – from the Greek, knide, a nettle), extraordinarily complex structures that are effectively invaginated coiled tubes within a cell.

Introduction This review provides a summary of the parasites, pathogens and contaminant related impacts on deep sea fish normally found at depths greater than about 200m There is a clear focus on worldwide commercial species but has an emphasis on records and reports from the north east Atlantic. In particular, the focus of species following discussion were as follows: deep-water squalid sharks (e.g. Centrophorus squamosus and Centroscymnus coelolepis), black scabbardfish (Aphanopus carbo) (except in ICES area IX – fielded by Portuguese), roundnose grenadier (Coryphaenoides rupestris), orange roughy (Hoplostethus atlanticus), blue ling (Molva dypterygia), torsk (Brosme brosme), greater silver smelt (Argentina silus), Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides), deep-sea redfish (Sebastes mentella), alfonsino (Beryx spp.), red blackspot seabream (Pagellus bogaraveo). However, it should be noted that in some cases no disease or contaminant data exists for these species.

In this study, diet ofthe Leach's storm-petrel (Oceanodroma leucorhoa) is examined to determine ifevidence ofchanging ocean conditions can be found in the diet. Regurgitations were collected from the birds in order to describe diet. Euphausiids and fish composed 80 - 90% ofthe diet in both years, with composition of each diametrically different between years. Other items found in samples included . hyperiid and gammariid amphipods, cephalopods, plastic pieces and a new species of Cirolanid isopod.

Wiebe13 · Agata Weydmann‑Zwolicka14 Received: 6 February 2021 / Accepted: 18 April 2021 © The Author(s) 2021 Abstract Characterization of species diversity of zooplankton is key to understanding, assessing, and predicting the function and future of pelagic ecosystems throughout the global ocean. The marine zooplankton assemblage, including only metazoans, is highly diverse and taxonomically complex, with an estimated ~28,000 species of 41 major taxonomic groups. This review provides a comprehensive summary of DNA sequences for the barcode region of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) for identifed specimens. The foundation of this summary is the MetaZooGene Barcode Atlas and Database (MZGdb), a new open-access data and metadata portal that is linked to NCBI GenBank and BOLD data repositories. The MZGdb provides enhanced quality control and tools for assembling COI reference sequence databases that are specifc to selected taxonomic groups and/or ocean regions, with associated metadata (e.g., collection georeferencing, verifcation of species identifcation, molecular protocols), and tools for statistical analysis, mapping, and visualization. To date, over 150,000 COI sequences for ~ 5600 described species of marine metazoan plankton (including holo- and meroplankton) are available via the MZGdb portal.
