Vol. 30, No. 4: 235-239, October 2014 http://dx.doi.org/10.5635/ASED.2014.30.4.235 Short communication First Zoeal Stage of Camptandrium sexdentatum (Crustacea: Decapoda: Camptandriidae) Jay Hee Park1, Hyun Sook Ko2,* 1Marine Eco-Technology Institute, Busan 608-830, Korea 2Department of Biological Science, Silla University, Busan 617-736, Korea ABSTRACT The first zoea of Camptandrium sexdentatum is described for the first time with a digital image of live zoeas. An ovigerous crab of C. sexdentatum was collected at the muddy sand flat in Namhaedo Island on 2 June 2012 and hatched in the laboratory on 6 June 2012. In Camptandriidae, the first zoea of C. sexdentatum is distin- guished from the first zoeas of Cleistostoma dilatatum and Deiratonotus cristatum by having no dorsal and lateral carapace spines, an abdomen significantly broadened posteriorly, and a subovoid telson without forks. Especially, the finding of a subovoid telson without forks is the first report in brachyuran zoeas.

  • 68 Guide to Crustacea
    68 Guide to Crustacea. The arrow indicates the course of the respiratory current, which, however, may sometimes be temporarily reversed, especially in burrowing species. The typical members of the family Portunidae (Swimming FIG. 46. Pseudocarcinus gigas, from Tasmania. The carapace of this specimen is just over a foot in width. [Above Wall-cases Nos. 5 and 6.] Crabs) may be recognised by the flattened, paddle-shaped, last pair of legs. Two British species of the genus Portunus are exhibited : the colours of P. depurator have been carefully copied from a living individual, and the specimen is mounted on a sample Decapoda—Brachyura. 69 of the shell-gravel on which it was actually caught. The large Neptunus pelagicus is the commonest edible Crab in many parts of the East. The Common Shore Crab, Carcinus maenas, is also referred to this family, although the paddle-shape of the last legs is not so marked as in the more typical Portunidae. Podophthalmus vigil (Fig. 47) is remarkable for the great length of the eye-stalks, which is quite unusual among the Cyclometopa, and gives this Crab a curious likeness to the genus Macrophthalmus among the Ocypodidae (see Table-case No. 16). The resemblance, however, is quite superficial, for in this case FIG. 47. Podophthalmus vigil (reduced). [Table-case No. 15.] it is the first of the two segments of the eye-stalk which is elongated, while in Macrophthalmus it is the second. The genus Platyonychus, of which a group of specimens is mounted in Wall-case No. 5, also belongs to this family.

  • Microbiomes of Gall-Inducing Copepod Crustaceans from the Corals Stylophora Pistillata (Scleractinia) and Gorgonia Ventalina
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Microbiomes of gall-inducing copepod crustaceans from the corals Stylophora pistillata Received: 26 February 2018 Accepted: 18 July 2018 (Scleractinia) and Gorgonia Published: xx xx xxxx ventalina (Alcyonacea) Pavel V.

Gelfand1,3,4,8 & Viatcheslav N. Ivanenko 6,9 Corals harbor complex and diverse microbial communities that strongly impact host ftness and resistance to diseases, but these microbes themselves can be infuenced by stresses, like those caused by the presence of macroscopic symbionts. In addition to directly infuencing the host, symbionts may transmit pathogenic microbial communities. We analyzed two coral gall-forming copepod systems by using 16S rRNA gene metagenomic sequencing: (1) the sea fan Gorgonia ventalina with copepods of the genus Sphaerippe from the Caribbean and (2) the scleractinian coral Stylophora pistillata with copepods of the genus Spaniomolgus from the Saudi Arabian part of the Red Sea. We show that bacterial communities in these two systems were substantially diferent with Actinobacteria, Alphaproteobacteria, and Betaproteobacteria more prevalent in samples from Gorgonia ventalina, and Gammaproteobacteria in Stylophora pistillata. In Stylophora pistillata, normal coral microbiomes were enriched with the common coral symbiont Endozoicomonas and some unclassifed bacteria, while copepod and gall-tissue microbiomes were highly enriched with the family ME2 (Oceanospirillales) or Rhodobacteraceae. In Gorgonia ventalina, no bacterial group had signifcantly diferent prevalence in the normal coral tissues, copepods, and injured tissues. The total microbiome composition of polyps injured by copepods was diferent.

Over 10,500 names are treated including 6,793 valid species and subspecies (with 1,907 primary synonyms), 1,271 genera and subgenera (with 393 primary synonyms), 93 families and 38 superfamilies. Nomenclatural and taxonomic problems are reviewed in detail, and many resolved. Detailed notes and references are provided where necessary. The constitution of a large number of families and superfamilies is discussed in detail, with the positions of some taxa rearranged in an attempt to form a stable base for future taxonomic studies. This is the first time the nomenclature of any large group of decapod crustaceans has been examined in such detail.

Rizalthus, new genus, with just one species, R. anconis, new species, can be distinguished from allied genera by characters of the carapace, epistome, chelipeds, male abdomen and male fi rst gonopod. Visayax, new genus, contains two new species, V. osteodictyon and V. estampadori, and can be distinguished from similar genera using a combination of features of the carapace, epistome, thoracic sternum, male abdomen, pereiopods and male fi rst gonopod. A new species of Hepatoporus Serène, H. pumex, is also described. It is distinguished from congeners by the unique morphology of its front, carapace sculpturing, form of the subhepatic cavity and structure of the male fi rst gonopod.

  • How to Become a Crab: Phenotypic Constraints on a Recurring Body Plan

Wolfe1*, Javier Luque1,2,3, Heather D.

For over 140 years, convergent evolution of the crab-like body plan (with a wide and flattened shape, and a bent abdomen) at least five times in decapod crustaceans has been known as ‘carcinization’. The repeated loss of this body plan has been identified as ‘decarcinization’. We offer phylogenetic strategies to include poorly known groups, and direct evidence from fossils, that will resolve the pattern of crab evolution and the degree of phenotypic variation within crabs. Proposed ecological advantages of the crab body are summarized into a hypothesis of phenotypic integration suggesting correlated evolution of the carapace shape and abdomen. Our premise provides fertile ground for future studies of the genomic and developmental basis, and the predictability, of the crab-like body form. Keywords: Crustacea, Anomura, Brachyura, Carcinization, Phylogeny, Convergent evolution, Morphological integration 1 © 2020 by the author(s).

  • Crustacea, Copepoda, Harpacticoida): Proposed Emendation of Spelling to ZOSIMEIDAE to Remove Homonymy with ZOSIMINAE Alcock, 1898 (Crustacea, Decapoda, XANTHIDAE)
    24 Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature 66(1) March 2009 Case 3467 ZOSIMIDAE Seifried, 2003 (Crustacea, Copepoda, Harpacticoida): proposed emendation of spelling to ZOSIMEIDAE to remove homonymy with ZOSIMINAE Alcock, 1898 (Crustacea, Decapoda, XANTHIDAE) Rony Huys and Paul F. Clark Department of Zoology, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, U.K. (e-mail: [email protected] and [email protected]) Abstract. The purpose of this application, under Articles 29 and 55.3.1 of the Code, is to remove homonymy between the family-group names ZOSIMINAE Alcock, 1898 (Crustacea, Decapoda) and ZOSIMIDAE Seifried, 2003 (Crustacea, Copepoda) by changing the spelling of the junior homonym. It is proposed that the entire name Zosime Boeck, 1873 (Copepoda) be used to form ZOSIMEIDAE, leaving the stem of the senior homonym (based on the name Zosimus A.-G. Desmarest, 1823; Decapoda) unchanged. Zosimus A.-G. Desmarest, 1823 and Zosime Boeck, 1873 are respectively the type genera of ZOSIMINAE Alcock, 1898 (Decapoda) and ZOSIMIDAE Seifried, 2003 (Copepoda). Keywords. Nomenclature; taxonomy; Crustacea; Decapoda; Copepoda; Harpacti- coida; XANTHIDAE; ZOSIMEIDAE; ZOSIMIDAE; ZOSIMINAE; Zosime; Zosimus; Zosime typica; cosmopolitan. 1. Leach (1818) introduced the French vernacular names ‘Carpile’, ‘Clodorée’ (sic) and ‘Zosime’ for three genera of decapod crustaceans but did not include a descrip- tion, definition or indication of the taxa they denoted (Leach, 1818, pp. 74–75). Under Article 12 Leach’s names are nomina nuda and must be considered unavailable. 2. A.-G. Desmarest (1823, p. 228) latinised Leach’s (1818) vernacular names in a footnote to his text dealing with the genus Cancer, naming them Carpilius, Clorodius and Zosimus, respectively.
