Cah. Biol. Mar. (2005) 46 : 97-104 Composition and endemism of the deep-sea hydrothermal vent fauna Torben WOLFF Zoological Museum, University of Copenhagen, Universitetsparken 15, DK- 2100 Copenhagen Ø, Denmark Fax: +45-35321010, e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Based on enumerations from 1997/1998 and personal records, an up-to-date survey of the hydrothermal vent fauna is presented with number of species, genera and families of various taxa. The number of recorded species is 712 and includes species known exclusively from vents (71%), also occurring in cold seeps and/or whale falls (5%), also recorded from non-vent/non-seep environments (9%) or mainly referred to genus only (15%). The number of genera is 373, of fami- lies 185. Molluscs, arthropods and polychaetes are the prevailing groups (36, 34 and 18%, respectively). Prosobranch gas- tropods number almost three fourths of 257 mollusc species, copepods more than one third of 225 crustaceans and phyl- lodocid polychaetes more than half of 129 polychaetes. Calculation of vent endemism (after deduction of 103 species of doubtful status) shows values far exceeding those found elsewhere in the marine environment. On species level it is 83.4%, with maximum values found in cirripeds (100%), copepods (98%), prosobranch gastropods (89%), and polychaetes (86%). The percentage of endemic genera is 45. All six cirriped and most vestimentiferan genera are endemic, and other high val- ues are within copepods (66%), gastropods (58%), polychaetes (51%) and decapod crustaceans (43%). Fourteen among the families (8%) are found in vents exclusively, eight also in seeps. Résumé : Composition et endémisme de la faune des sources hydrothermales profondes. Fondée sur les listes publiées en 1997 et 1998 et sur des données personnelles, une liste mise à jour de la faune des sources hydrothermales est présentée. Le nombre total d’espèces signalées est 712, nombre qui inclut les espèces exclusivement inféodées aux sources hydrother- males (71%), celles également présentes dans les zones de suintements froids ou sur les carcasses de baleines (5%), celles également trouvées dans d’autres types de milieux (9%), enfin celles identifiées seulement au niveau générique (15%). Le nombre total de genres est de 373, et celui des familles de 185. Mollusques, Arthropodes et Polychètes sont les groupes pré- dominants (respectivement 36, 34 et 18% du total). Le nombre de Gastéropodes prosobranches représente à peu près les trois quarts des 257 espèces de Mollusques, les Copépodes plus d’un tiers des 225 Crustacés et les Phyllodocidés plus de la moitié des 129 Polychètes. Une fois soustraites les 103 espèces de statut douteux, le taux d’endémisme de la faune des sources hydrothermales atteint des valeurs qui excèdent toutes celles trouvées dans d’autres environnements marins. Le taux d’endémisme au niveau spécifique est de 83 %, avec des valeurs maximales chez les Cirripèdes (100%), les Copépodes (98%), les Gastéropodes (89%) et les Polychètes (86%). Le pourcentage de genres endémiques est de 45%. Les six genres de Cirripèdes et la plupart des genres de Vestimentifères sont endémiques; d’autres valeurs élevées ont été trouvées chez les Copépodes (66%), les Gastéropodes (58%), les Polychètes (51%) et les Décapodes (43%). Quatorze familles (8%) sont endémiques des sources hydrothermales.

Cold seeps fluids provide an additional source of energy for various sulfide- and 27 hydrocarbon-harvesting bacteria, often in symbiosis with invertebrates, attracting a variety of other 28 organisms including crustaceans (e.g., Levin 2005; Vanreusel et al. 2009; Vrijenhoek 2013).

Children and adults from three North American communities (urban majority culture, rural majority culture and rural Native American) were prompted to generate animal names, and the resulting lists were analyzed for their underlying dimensionality and for the typicality or salience of specifi c animal names. Th e semantic structure of the animal category appeared to be consistent across cultural groups, but the relative salience of animal kinds varied as a function of culture and fi rst-hand experience with the natural world. Th ese results provide evidence of a shared representation of animals across disparate cultures but also indicate a role for culture in shaping animal concepts. Keywords Categorization, development, cross-culture, Native American, folkbiology, name generation Introduction Universals and Cultural Specifi cs in Folkbiology A robust fi nding in folkbiological research is that across the world’s cultures, individuals categorize and name animals (as well as plants) in fundamentally similar ways (e.g., Berlin et al., 1973; Atran, 1990; Berlin, 1992; Malt, 1995; Coley et al., 1997).

    --- Not for reuse or distribution --- 8 HERMAPHRODITISM AND GONOCHORISM Chiara Benvenuto and Stephen C. Weeks Abstract This chapter compares two sexual systems: hermaphroditism (each individual can produce gametes of either sex) and gonochorism (each individual produces gametes of only one of the two distinct sexes) in crustaceans. These two main sexual systems contain a variety of alternative modes of reproduction, which are of great interest from applied and theoretical perspectives. The chapter focuses on the description, prevalence, analysis, and interpretation of these sexual systems, centering on their evolutionary transitions. The ecological correlates of each reproduc- tive system are also explored. In particular, the prevalence of “unusual” (non- gonochoristic) re- productive strategies has been identified under low population densities and in unpredictable/ unstable environments, often linked to specific habitats or lifestyles (such as parasitism) and in colonizing species. Finally, population- level consequences of some sexual systems are consid- ered, especially in terms of sex ratios. The chapter aims to provide a broad and extensive overview of the evolution, adaptation, ecological constraints, and implications of the various reproductive modes in this extraordinarily successful group of organisms. INTRODUCTION 1 Historical Overview of the Study of Crustacean Reproduction Crustaceans are a very large and extraordinarily diverse group of mainly aquatic organisms, which play important roles in many ecosystems and are economically important. Thus, it is not surprising that numerous studies focus on their reproductive biology. However, these reviews mainly target specific groups such as decapods (Sagi et al. 1997, Chiba 2007, Mente 2008, Asakura 2009), caridean Reproductive Biology. Edited by Rickey D.

    N. Jb. Geol. Paläont. Abh. 284/1 (2017), 29–42 Article E Stuttgart, April 2017 Litholepas klausreschi gen. et sp. nov., a new neolepadine barnacle (Cirripedia, Thoracica) on a sponge from the Upper Jurassic litho- graphic limestones of southern Germany Christina Nagler, Joachim T. Haug, Henrik Glenner and John Buckeridge With 6 figures Abstract: In this study we describe a unique fossil comprising 13 intact specimens of a peduncu- late cirripede attached to a sponge (Codites serpentinus). The fossil comes from the Upper Jurassic lithographic limestones of southern Germany. Based on the shape and distinctive sculpture of the plates, a new genus and species Litholepas klausreschi gen. et sp. nov. (Eolepadidae: Neolepadinae) is introduced. Although lateral plates are indistinct and the rostrum is unknown, plate disposition and strong external sculpture indicate a position within Neolepadinae tough the exact relationships are still uncertain. Representatives of L. klausreschi gen. et sp. nov. are considered to have lived either in a parasitic or commensal relationship partially buried within the sponge.

In accordance with Thorson's rule, the fraction of species with planktonic‐feeding larvae declined with water depth and in‐ creased with water temperature, while the fraction of brooding species exhibited the reverse pattern. Species with planktonic‐nonfeeding larvae were overall rare, follow‐ ing no apparent trend. In agreement with the “size advantage” hypothesis proposed by Strathmann in 1977, egg and larval size were closely correlated. Settlement‐com‐ petent cypris larvae were larger in cold water, indicative of advantages for large ju‐ veniles when growth is slowed. Planktonic larval duration, on the other hand, was uncorrelated to environmental variables.
