Agís J.A., Vervoort W. & Ramil F. 2014. Hydroids of the families Kirchenpaueriidae Stechow, 1921 and Plumulariidae McCrady, 1859 (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa) collected in the Western Pacific Ocean by various French Expeditions. Zoosystema 36(4): 789-840. DOI:10.5252/z2014n4a6
Résumé [+] [-]This publication is the third in a series of accounts on large collections of Plumularioidea McCrady, 1859 (Cnidaria, Hydrozoa, Hydroidolina) obtained during several French expeditions to the Philippines region, Vanuatu, New Caledonia, Fiji, and the Marquesas Islands. Additional material from Mozambique was also examined and is discussed. A total of 17 species, belonging to the families Kirchenpaueriidae Stechow, 1921 (two species) and Plumulariidae McCrady, 1859 (15 species), are scrutinized and illustrated in the present report. Three new species of the genus Plumularia Lamarck, 1816 are described (Plumularia bathyale n. sp., Plumularia contraria n. sp., Plumularia pseudocontraria n. sp.). The name Plumularia milsteinae n. nom., is proposed for Plumularia spiralis Milstein 1976, a permanently invalid junior homonym of Plumularia spiralis Billard, 1911. Polyplumaria kossowskae (Billard, 1911) is recorded for the first time since its original description. Two species of Plumularia are identified only to the genus level. Type materials of Plumularia habereri Stechow, 1909 and Dentitheca hertwigi Stechow, 1909, and the syntypes of all varieties of Plumularia habereri described by Billard (1913), have also been examined.

Beu A.G. 1998. Indo-West Pacific Ranellidae, Bursidae and Personidae (Mollusca: Gastropoda). A monograph of the New Caledonian fauna and revisions of related taxa - Résultats des campagnes MUSORSTOM 19. Mémoires du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle 178, 256 pp. ISBN:2-85653-517-8
Résumé [+] [-]The Ranellidae, Bursidae and Personidae from the New Caledonia region (including the Loyalty Islands, the Coral Sea and the New Hebrides Arc) are monographed based on the results of an extensive collecting effort totalling more than 1000 stations. Seventy-three species are recorded, with numerous range extensions. One of the more remarkable aspects of this fauna is the uniquely diverse deep-water tonnoidean assemblage, dominated by species such as Bursa fijiensis, B. latitudo, B. quirihorai, species of Distorsio, Sassia remensa, and less common small personids in the genera Distorsionella and Personopsis. The number of species of New Caledonian Personidae is the highest yet recorded. The Personopsis species are the first modem ones correctly referred to the genus. Revisions are provided of Biplex, Gyrineum, Cyinatium (Gelagna), the Cymatium vespaceum, C. tenuiliratum and Bursa latitudo species groups, of southwest Pacific species of Sassia, and of several Cymatium (Ranularia) and Distorsio species. New genera proposed are Halgyrineum (Ranellidae) and Distorsomina (Personidae). Seven new species are proposed: Biplex bozzettii (from Somalia and southem India), Gyrineum longicaudatum (from the tropical westem Pacific), Cymatium pemiiketi (from Oman), Distorsio parvimpedita, Distorsionella pseudaphera, Personopsis purpurata and P. trigonaperta (all from New Caledonia). The nomenclature of numerous taxa is stabilized by the designation of neotypes and lectotypes for nominal species named by A. Adams & Reeve, Broderip, Deshayes, Dillwyn, Dunker, Fulton, Gmelin, Gould, Gray, Iredale, Jousseaume, Kuenen. Küster, Lamarck, Linné, Martin. Mighels, d'Orbigny, Perry, Reeve, Röding, Salis Marschlins, Schepman, Schumacher, G B. Sowerby II, and Wood.

Beu A.G. 2008. Recent deep-water Cassidae of the world. A revision of Galeodea, Oocorys, Sconsia, Echinophoria and relatedtaxa, with new genera and species (Mollusca, Gastropoda), in Héros V., Cowie R.H. & Bouchet P.(Eds), Tropical Deep-Sea Benthos 25. Mémoires du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle 196:269-387, ISBN:978-2-85653-614-8
Résumé [+] [-]Shell, radular, opercular and external anatomical characters are surveyed in world Recent deep-water Cassidae, leading to the recognition of three subfamilies: Cassinae, Oocorythinae and Phaliinae. All Recent species are revised of Galeodea Link, 1807 (=Galeoocorys Kuroda & Habe, 1957), Microsconsia n. gen. and Sconsia Gray, 1847, all included in subfamily Cassinae; of Oocorys Fischer, 1883 (= Benthodolium Verrill & Smith, 1884, = Hadroocorys Quinn, 1980), Eucorys n. gen. (including Oocorys bartschi Rehder, 1943 and O. barbouri Clench & Aguayo, 1939) and Dalium Dall, 1889, all included in subfamily Oocorythinae; and of Echinophoria Sacco, 1890, included in subfamily Phaliinae. New species named are Galeodea plauta n. sp. (northwestern New Zealand), Microsconsia limpusi n. sp. (southeastern Queensland, Australia), and Oocorys grandis n. sp. (central Indian Ocean, and southeastern Atlantic, off Namibia). Galeodea bituminata (Martin, 1933) (based on a Pliocene fossil from Buton Island, Indonesia) is an earlier name for G. echinophorella Habe, 1961; G. carolimartini Beets, 1943 is another earlier name for G. echinophorella. The name usually accepted for the type species of Sconsia, S. striata (Lamarck, 1816), is a junior secondary homonym of S. striata (J. Sowerby, 1812) and the valid name for this species is S. grayi (A. Adams, 1855). Echinophoria kurodai Abbott, 1968 was based on small specimens of E. wyvillei (Watson, 1886), and E. oschei Mühlhäusser, 1992 was based on Indian Ocean specimens of E. wyvillei. Echinophoria carnosa Kuroda & Habe, 1961 is limited to southern Japan to the Philippine Islands.

Bieler R. 1993. Architectonicidae of the Indo-Pacific (Mollusca, Gastropoda). Abhandlungen des Naturwissenschaftlichen Vereins in Hamburg (NF) 30, 376 pp. ISBN:3-437-30758-4
Résumé [+] [-]A systematic monograph of the Recent Indo-Pacific species of the marine family Architectonicidae (Gastropoda: Heterostropha) is presented, based on new field studies, a large part (more than 22,000 specimens in over 50 collections) of the world-wide available collection material, as well as all available type material and original publications. A general introduction to the family is given, concentrating on morphology and anatomy, reproductive biology, habitat and diet, phylogeny and fossil record. The group has a world-wide distribution in warm-temperate to tropical waters and is the only gastropod family possessing heterostrophic ("sinistral") protoconchs in combination with broadly conical, umbilicate, dextral teleoconchs. Architectonicids prey on various groups of zoantharian coelenterates. All members for which data are available have long-range planktotrophic veliger larvae enabling dispersal over great distances, and large areas of distribution (often ranging from Africa to the Central Pacific, sometimes even reaching the western coast of America) have been recognized for many species. A discussion of taxonomic characters emphasizes a "finger-print" pattern of recognized homologous teleoconch spiral ribs, and species-typical size range and shape (and occasionally, sculpture) of the protoconch. Over 250 previously introduced architectonicid species-group names are discussed. Of these, 88 are accepted as valid Indo-Pacific architectonicid species-group taxa, and 83 names are placed in their synonymies. Many others are rejected as unjustified emendations, erroneous subsequent spellings, or non-binominal names. Twenty lndo-Pacific species are described as new to science: Architectonica arcana, A. consobrina, A. gualtierii, Granosolarium excavatum, G. gemmi/ernm, Heliacus geminus, H hyperionis, H nereidis, H oceanitis, H proteus, Pseudotorinia armillata, P. sestertius, P. yaroni, Solatisonax kilburni, S.? orba, S. propinqua, S. rehderi, Spiro/axis argonauta, Sp. cornuarietis, and Sp. exornatus. Eight additional "forms" are recognized that demand further study and remain unnamed. Each recognized taxon is redescribed in detail, with special emphasis on homologous features of the teleoconch and protoconch dimensions. The descriptions are illustrated with 470 light and SEM photographs of type and other relevant specimens, and 150 other illustrations such as distribution maps, histograms and line drawings. Available data on anatomy, reproductive biology, larval development, ecology, and geographical distribution are summarized. The Indo-Pacific Architectonicidae are arranged in 11 genera: Architectonica RODING, 1798 (= Solarium LAMARCK, 1799, Verticillus Jousseaume, 1888), with 16 species and 2 "forms"; Adelphotectonica BIELER, 1987, with 3 species; Philippia GRAY, 1847, with 2 species (one of which of doubtful status); Psilaxis Woodring, 1928, with 2 species; Discotectonica MARWICK, 1931 ( = Acutitectonica HABE, 1961, Russetia GARRARD, 1961 ), with 4 species; Granosolarium SAcco, 1892 ( = Solariaxis DALL, 1892, Claraxis IREDALE, 1936), with 5 species; Solatisonax IREDALE, 1931, with 9 species and 1 "form" (two of which tentatively placed or of doubtful locality); Heliacus 0RBJGNY, 1842 ( = Torinia GRAY, 1842), with 28 species, 1 geographic subspecies and several "forms" of undetermined status, arranged in 6 subgenera: Heliacus s.s., Pyrgoheliacus BIELER, 1987, Torinista IREDALE, 1936 ( = Astronacus WoooRING, 1959), Grandeliacus IREDALE, 1957, Teretropoma Rochebrune, 1881, and Gyriscm TIBERI, 1867; Pseudotorinia SAcco, 1892 (= Awarna MESTAYER, 1930, Calodisculus REHDER, 1935), with 12 species and 4 "forms"; Pseudomalaxis F1sCHER, 1885 ( = Discosolis DALL, 1892, Mangonuia Mestayer, 1930), with 2 species; and Spirolaxis MONTEROSATO, 1913 (= Paurodiscm REHDER, 1935, Aguayodiscus Jaume &. Borro, 1946), with 5 species. Lectotypes are selected for Architectonica nobilis RODING, 1798; Architectonica valenciennesii MoRCH, 1859; Solarium admirandum MELVILL &. STANDEN, 1903; Solarium bicanaliculatum VALENCIENNES, 1832; Solarium dilectum DESHAYES, 1863; Solarium dunkeri HANLEY, 1862; Solarium enoshimense MELVILL, 1891; Solarium granulatum LAMARCK, 1816; Solarium japonicum PILSBRY & STEARNS, 1895; Solarium placentale HINDS, 1844; Torinia aequatorialis THIELE, 1925; Torinia costata Schepman, 1909; Torinia densegranosa Pilsbry, 1905; Torinia discoidea PEASE, 1868; and Torinia gemmulata THIELE, 1925.

Résumé [+] [-]Recent deep-sea explorations in the South Pacific have documented around New Caledonia the most diverse fauna of gastropods of the family Volutomitridae anywhere in the world. Fourteen species (nine new, two remaining unnamed) are recorded, all essentially confined to the 250–750 m depth range. The high number of species in the New Caledonia region does not appear to be an effect of sampling intensity, but appears to result from four factors: regional spatial heterogeneity, frequency of hard substrates, syntopy, and a historical heritage shared with Australia and New Zealand, which until now ranked as the major centre of volutomitrid diversity. In the New Caledonia region, volutomitrids show a marked preference for hard bottoms and up to three species may cooccur in the same dredge haul. Many species appear to have extremely narrow geographical distributions within the region (e.g. a single seamount or a single submerged plateau); conversely, Microvoluta joloensis, the only non-endemic volutomitrid present in New Caledonia, ranges from the Mozambique Channel to Tonga.

Résumé [+] [-]A collection of 52 species of palaemonoid shrimps from the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris, is reported upon. Material is derived principally from the New Caledonian region but also includes specimens from Aden/Yemen, Comoro Islands, western Indian Ocean, Philippines, Indonesia and Wallis Island. Specimens have been collected from intertidal depths to over 600 m. Ten species have been collected from water depths of over 100 m. Two new genera of pontoniine shrimp are designated : Climeniperaeus, for Periclimenaeus truncoideus Chace & Bruce, 1993, and Typtonychus, for a new species, T. crassimanus. The following species are transferred from the genus Typton to the new genus Typtonychus : T. anomalus (Bruce, 1979), T. dentatus (Fujino & Miyake, 1969), and T. dimorphus (Bruce, 1986). These species are probably all associates of Porifera. Six new species of pontoniine shrimp are described. These include Conchodytes philippinensis, from an unknown locality in the Philippines; Mesopontonia verrucimanus, from 184-186 m in the Tanimbar Islands, Indonesia; Periclimenaeus colodactylus, from 20-25 m in New Caledonia, in association with Diplosoma versicolor Monniot; Periclimenes involens, from 92-97 m, off Mindoro, Philippines, of unknown association; Pontonia compacta, from 10- 60 m, in New Caledonia, in association with Pyura albaneyensis Michaelson and Pontonia simplicipes, from 71 m, in the Chesterfield Islands, in association with Pyura nigricans Heller.

Brunckhorst D.J. 1993. The systematics and phylogeny of Phyllidiid Nudibranchs (Doridoidea). Records of the Australian Museum 16, 107 pp. ISBN:978-0-7310-0065-4
Résumé [+] [-]Investigations into the taxonomy, phylogeny, biogeography and ecology of nudibranchs belonging to the family Phyllidiidae Rafinesque are reported. All prior research on the Phyllidiidae is reviewed. There were 74 nominal species as of January, 1992. The literature revealed enormous confusion in the taxonomy of phyllidiids caused primarily from inadequate anatomical study (or none at all) and descriptions of single preserved specimens. Intraspecific variation, particularly its ontogenetic component, is identified as an additional cause of misidentification. Traditional sources of nudibranch taxonomic characters, such as jaws and radula, are lacking in the Phyllidiidae. Characters used in this study are: general shape and body profile; colour and pattern; morphology of notal tubercles, ridges, and the mantle margin; rhinophoral colour; number of lamellae on each rhinophoral clavus; gills; morphology of foot and foot sole; oral tentacles; anatomy of the alimentary system; anatomy of the reproductive system; penial spine morphology; and sperm ultrastructure. Six genera are recognised and each is redescribed. Features which clearly demarcate the genera occur principally in the digestive system, and also in the reproductive system and external morphology. A key to genera is provided. A total of 49 valid, Indo-Pacific species is recognised; a full synonymy is given for each species. Phyllidia Cuvier remains the largest genus with 15 (including 8 new) species. Fryeria Gray is considered a valid genus with six (including 3 new) species. Phyllidiella Bergh is reinstated and nine (including 4 new) species are recognised. Phyllidiop.sis Bergh, the second largest genus, contains 14 (including 6 new) species. Ceratc~phyllidia Eliot appears to contain three (including 2 new) species, however specimens are very rarely collected and further work remains to be done prior to their formal description. The recently described genus Reticulidia Brunckhorst contains two species. In all, 22 new species of phyllidiid nudibranchs are described. Study of anatomy has allowed a phylogenetic hypothesis to be proposed for the first time. Cerutophyllidiu is the sister group to the remaining genera. Phyllidia, Fryeria and Reticulidia are the most derived genera. The morphology and anatomy of phyllidiids indicates monophyly with dorids. However, the grouping of the Phyllidiidae and Dendrodorididae as Porostomata is polyphyletic and rejected as homeoplaseous . Differences in foregut anatomy between the two groups support the view that suctorial feeding of sponges has arisen independently in both groups. Biogeographical distribution of species and ecological observations are reported . As a result of field observations. the sponge foods of several phyllidiid species are reported for the first time. The sponge food and chemical defence compounds of phyllidiid species may also be useful in taxonomic study . In situ observations of feeding and study of the functional anatomy of the foregut enabled a description of the method of operation of the feeding apparatus of each genus . The spawn of three species are described for the first time.

Résumé [+] [-]An unknown hitherto disto-ventral organ of the sixth abdominal segment in shrimps is described. This organ is a complex of twin sections of modified integument and related rows of setas. It is of great taxonomic importance. The presence of this organ allows one to ascertain that typical series of some species from this genus is a mixture of various species. The revision of six species, determined by Bate (1888), resulted in reduction of N. intermedius and N. parvidentatus to the synonyms, N. productus Bate, 1888 and N. tenuipes Bate, 1888, respectively. Diagnoses of N. productus, N. tenuipes, and N. proximatus are making more exact. N. serratirostris Burukovsky, 1991 is considered as a synonym of N. tenuipes.

Cernohorsky W.O. 1981. On a collection of buccinacean and mitracean Gastropods from the Mozambique Channel and New Caledonia. Bulletin du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, 4° série, Section A 3(4): 985-1009
Résumé [+] [-]The present paper deals with a collection of 59 species of buccinacean and mitracean gastropods belonging to 4 families from moderately shallow to deep water around the Mozambique Channel area, north of Madagascar. A total of 27% of the species recorvered are new geographical range extensions. The New Caledonian material consists of 21 species belonging to 5 families, and was dredged, with one exception, in moderately deep water. A total of 38% of the New Caledonian species represent new geographical records, and one of these is a new species : Volutomitra (Waimatea) vaubani n. sp. The new name Vexillum (Costellaria) duplex is proposed for the homonymous Mitra simplicissima Schepman, 1911, and its var. glabra Shepman, 1911.

The deep-sea spiny lobster genus Puerulus Ortmann, 1897 (Crustacea, Decapoda, Palinuridae), with descriptions of five new species, in Ahyong S.T., Chan T., Corbari L. & Ng P.K.(Eds), Tropical Deep-Sea Benthos 27. Mémoires du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle 204:191-230, ISBN:978-2-85653-692-6
Résumé [+] [-]Recent French deep-sea expeditions in the Indo-West Pacific resulted in the collection of abundant material of the deep-sea lobster genus Puerulus Ortmann, 1897 (Palinuridae). Difficulties in identification necessitated a generic revision and as a result, five new species are described, all of which are similar to P. angulatus (Bate, 1888). Puerulus angulatus was thought to have a wide distribution from eastern Africa to Marquesas Islands, but is now restricted to the western Pacific, from Japan to Australia. Of the five new species, P. gibbosus n. sp. is found in eastern Africa, P. mesodontus n. sp. from Japan to Fiji, P. richeri n. sp. from the New Caledonia to Marquesas Islands, while P. sericus n. sp. and P. quadridentis n. sp. mainly occur around New Caledonia. Of the other three previously described species, the distribution of P. velutinus Holthuis, 1963, is extended to Fiji, while P. sewelli Ramadan, 1938, and P. carinatus Borradaile, 1910, are still only known from the northern and western parts of the Indian Ocean, respectively. COI gene sequence differences support the morphological species distinctions.

Résumé [+] [-]The greatest part of the types of the brachyuran crabs (Crustacea, Decapoda) in the Crustacea collection of the Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris, is already catalogued on registers and is to be gradually published. This first annotated catalogue lists the nominal species belonging to the Podotremata (i.e. crabs with coxal male and female gonopores, and spermathecae): families Homolodromiidae, Dromiidae, Dynomenidae, Homoliclae, Poupiniidae, Cycloclorippidae, Cymonomidae, Phyllotymolinidae and Raninidae. The names of the taxa are presented in their original combination. The erroneous references to specimens as "types" have been noted and corrected in conformity with the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature. The types of a total of 104 species are listed herein, out of about 370 known species of podotreme crabs. Photographs of most of the type specimens are also provided. A bibliography and an index are included.

Résumé [+] [-]Four deep-sea fishing expeditions conducted in the Indian ocean allowed to catch 31 species of penaeid shrimps. None of them is new but several of them were known only in geographic areas remote from the Indian ocean and they were often represented by a very small number of specimens which somethimes belonged only to one sex. Therefore, additional descriptions are given and they are based on a rather abundant illustration. Moreover, a few synonymies could be established by reexamination of various types.

Résumé [+] [-]Collecting from 1971 to 1982 in the South Western Indian Ocean resulted in the collection of 3 I species of Oplophorid Shrimps. Four of them, Acanthephyra frontieri, Heterogenys monnioti, Systellaspis curvispina and S. guillei, are new to Science and six others had never been reported from the Western Indian Ocean. Moreover the synonymy of Acanthephyra gracilipes Chace, 1940, with A. tenuipes Bate, 1888, is proposed and Notostomus rnurrayi Bate, 1888, which had never been reported since its description from a single specimen from the South Atlantic is discussed and illustrated. Finally, the variations of Systellaspis debilis (A. Milne Edwards, 1881) and S. pellucida (Filhol, 1885) are examined partly.

Résumé [+] [-]This paper is a continuation of the work published in 1987, in which a group of 10 species and one subspecies of Indo-West Pacific Metapenaeopsis without stridulating organs were treated. The study presented here is based on abundant material supplied by a large number of ORSTOM collections made in the Indo-West Pacific (Madagascar, Seychelles and New Caledonia) and by joint expéditions by ORSTOM and the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle (MUSORSTOM 1-6, CORINDON, BIOCAL, BIOGEOCAL, CHALCAL 1 and 2 cruises) in the Philippines, Indonesia, New Caledonia and Chesterfield Islands and by the MD 32 cruise in the vicinity of La Réunion, supported by the TAAF (Terres Australes et Antarctiques Françaises). Additional material from the collections of the National Muséum of Natural History, Washington, from several Australian Muséums, as well as from the Muséums of Amsterdam, Leiden, Copenhagen and Frankfürt was also examined. Problems have occurred because of insufficient original descriptions and these have resulted in many errors in the Iiterature. All the type specimens have been re-examined (except for M. gallensis Pearson which is apparently lost), and also most of the specimens cited in the Iiterature. Corrected identifications and distributions are given. Among the species previously described, 18 are recognized as valid, either as species or as subspecies : M. assimilis (de Man, 1920), M. ceylonica Starobogatov, 1972, M. commensalis Borradaile, 1898, M. dalei (Rathbun, 1902), M. distincta (de Man, 1907), M. evermanni (Rathbun, 1906), M. faouzii (Ramadan, 1938), M. gallensis (Pearson, 1905), M. hilarula (de Man, 1911), M. Iamellata (de Haan, 1844), M. mannarensis de Bruin, 1965, M. mogiensis consobrina (Nobili, 1904), M. mogiensis mogiensis (Rathbun, 1902), M. quinquedenta (de Man, 1907), M. tarawensis Racek & Dali, 1965, M. vaillanti (Nobili, 1904), M. velutina (Dana, 1852), M. wellsi Racek, 1967. Six species are considered to be synonyms : M. borradailei (de Man, 1911) = M. commensalis Borradaile, 1898. M. bruini Starobogatov, 1972 = M. mogiensis consobrina (Nobili, 1904). M. caliper Liu & Zhong et al., 1988 = M. velutina (Dana, 1852). M. insona Racek & Dali, 1965 = M. velutina (Dana, 1852). M. perlarum (Nobili, 1905) = M. mogiensis consobrina (Nobili, 1904). M. raceki Starobogatov, 1972 = M. assimilis (de Man, 1920). Fifteen species and 2 subspecies are described as new : M. costata, M. difficilis, M. gaillardi, M. incisa, M. laubieri, M. marquesas, M. menoui, M. mogiensis complanata, M. mogiensis intermedia, M. parahilarula, M. persica, M. propinqua, M. proxima, M. quadrilobata, M. richeri, M. spatulata, M. spiridonovi. A total of 35 species and subspecies (not counting one form described under the name M. aff. Distincta which is probably new) are treated. Thus 46 species and subspecies of Metapenaeopsis lacking stridulating organs are now known to occur in the Indo-West Pacific. Two identification keys are presented : one for males, another for females. They are mainly intended as a guide to the numerous figures included in the paper. Illustrations of the genitalia provide assistance in recognizing the characters used to separate the species. All the petasmata are depicted with lobes both closed and separated. Depth zones and geographic distributions of all the species are presented in tabular form. As with previous studies high species diversity of the Philippines-Indonesia fauna is evident. Déductions about the biogeography must be regarded with caution because they may reflect differences in sampling effort across the various areas and also because many small species have not been adequately collected. It is of particular interest to note that in the New Caledonian region, where there have been many collections made using a variety of methods, 17 species are known, whereas from the vast Philippines-Indonesia region only 19 have been recorded and only 9 from the whole of Australia. Finally some general considerations on the genus Metapenaeopsis are presented and it is suggested that the species currently assigned to it should perhaps be placed in 2 or 3 genera. An effort has been made to define the groups that might be deserving more formal recognition.

Résumé [+] [-]The species of the genus Trachypenaeopsis (Crustacea, Decapoda, Penaeidae). Morphological and molecular approaches. The genus Trachypenaeopsis Burkenroad, 1934 has been known in the Indo-West Pacific region by two species, T richtersii (Miers, 1884), described from Mauritius and recorded afterwards as far as Indonesia, Japan, and Hawaii, and T minicoyensis Thomas, 1972, known only from the Laccadive Is. The present work shows that T minicoyensis is a synonym of T richtersii, that identifications of material from China, Taiwan, and Hawaii are erroneous and that these specimens are not morphologically distinguishable from the Atlantic species, T mobilispinis (Rathbun, 1915), described from the West Indies. DNA analyses show that Pacific specimens other than T. richtersii belong to one species: genetic divergence is not higher than 2.2%, while the genetic distance between Pacific and Atlantic populations averages 3.6%. The absence of morphological differences between these two sets of populations indicates that the populations are becoming genetically different but cannot yet be considered separate species. The colour patterns of the Atlantic and Pacific specimens have not been determined so it is possible that these Populations could eventually be shown to represent separate sibling species.

Résumé [+] [-]This work deals with 31 species of Sicyonia H. Milne Edwards, 1830, based on the collections made by the IRD (ex ORSTOM) and the Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris, and on the collections of 28 other museums. Nineteen species are considered valid: S. australiensis Hanamura Wadley, 1998; S. benthophila de Man, 1907; S. bispinosa de Haan, 1850; S. curvirostris Balss, 1913; S. fallax de Man, 1907; S. furcata Miers, 1878; S. inflexa (Kubo, 1949); S. japonica Balss, 1914; S. laevis Bate, 1881; S. lancifer (Olivier, 1811); S. longicauda Rathbun, 1906; S. nasica Burukovsky, 1990; S. ocellata Stimpson, 1860; S. parafallax Crosnier, 1995; S. parvula de Haan, 1850; S. rectirostris de Man, 1907; S. trispinosa de Man, 1907; S. truncata (Kubo, 1949) and S. vitulans (Kubo, 1949). Four species are considered to be synonyms: S. cristata (de Haan, 1844) = S. lancifer; S. formosa (Chan & Yu, 1985) = S. furcata; S. ommanneyi Hall, 1961 = S. ocellata; S. nebulosa Kubo, 1949 = S. laevis. Twelve species are described as new: S. abathophila n. sp., S. adunca n. sp., S. altirostrum n. sp., S. dejouanneti n. sp., S. komai n. sp., S. longicornis n. sp., S. metavitulans n. sp., S. parajaponica n. sp., S. robusta n. sp., S. rocroi n. sp., S. rotunda n. sp. and S. taiwanesis n. sp. Some forms, near S. australiensis and S. dejouanneti n. sp., are mentioned but not named because the material available is insufficient. An attempt is made to classify the Indo-West Pacific species of Sicyonia into eight groups. Some groups are coherent, while others are certainly artificial. Some species cannot be placed in any of the groups and the placement of several species known from one sex only remains hazardous. An identification key is presented. Particular care was taken in illustrating the genitalia, which provide the most important characters for recognizing the species. Colour photographs show the coloration of living specimens of 17 species. Depth zones and geographic distributions of all the species are presented in tabular form. As with previous studies, high species diversity of the Philippines-Indonesia fauna is evident, as well as the reduction of the number of species when one moves away from the area, except for New Caledonian area because of the unusually high h density of the samples collected in this area.

Résumé [+] [-]Over the last decade or so, much has been written on the classification of Decapoda, fuelled by a surge in molecular phylogenetic studies, as well as close scrutiny of internal and external morphological characteristics. As discussed by Fransen & De Grave (2009), such studies on shrimps are still somewhat ”thin on the ground”, at least compared to the more extensive work done on the Brachyura and Anomura. At a higher level in decapod classification it has long been recognised that three distinct lineages of shrimps can be distinguished: Dendrobranchiata, Stenopodidea and Caridea, a system which has not been seriously challenged by recent studies. The internal classification of Dendrobranchiata and Stenopodidea alike has been stable for some time, with the only major addition being the family Macromaxillocarididae Alvarez, Iliffe & Villalobos (2006) to the Stenopodidea in recent years. A different picture has emerged for Caridea very recently with Bracken et al. (2009) and Chan et al. (2010), both drawing attention to the non-monophyletic status of certain superfamilies and families. Further, we are aware of work currently in progress (some by the authors of this compilation) corroborating the hypothesis that the current classification of Caridea is unnatural, lines of study which will lead to the resurrection of certain family names as well as further refinement to other families. As one of our objectives for the current effort was to link this compilation of species level information with the earlier work by Chace (1992) for families and Holthuis (1993a) for genera, we have elected to largely follow the classification outlined by De Grave et al. (2009) which builds upon this earlier work. As such, it was deemed advisable to include the recently resurrected family Acanthephyridae Spence Bate, 1888 in the superfamily Oplophoroidea, rather than in this catalogue to create a new superfamily, which would perhaps be more congruent with the results in Chan et al. (2010). Although we follow herein the classification scheme of De Grave et al. (2009), two recent changes have been implemented. The clarification of the status of Galatheacaris abyssalis Vereshchaka, 1997a, as the megalopal stage of Eugonatonotus chacei Chan & Yu, 1991a, by De Grave et al. (2010) resulted in the removal of the family Galatheacarididae and superfamily Galatheacaridoidea in the current listing. Bracken et al. (2010) clarified the status of the family Procarididae, resulting in the recognition of a fourth group of shrimp, Infraorder Procarididea.

Résumé [+] [-]A taxonomic and morphological account of a collection of Phallodrilinae from coralline sands at Heron Island in Australia’s Great Barrier Reef is given. Ten new forms are described: Jamiesoniella uthecuta gen. et sp.n., P hallodrilus rectisetosus heronensis subsp.n., P. geniculatus sp.n., P. filithecatus sp.n., P. clavatus sp.n. (latter three all devoid of an alimentary canal), Bathydrilus superiovasatus sp.n., Coralliodrilus atriobifidus sp.n., C. oviatriatus sp.n., C. parvigenitalis sp.n., and the gutless C. avisceralis sp.n. Morphological notes are given for P hallodrilus ulbidus Jamieson, 1977 and Bathydrilus rohdei (Jamieson, 1977). The new meiobenthic genusJumiesoniella is characterized by having simple atria with only one pair of prostate glands, which are attached to ectal parts of atria, and by lacking spermathecae and penial setae,. The genus is probably related to Aktedrilus Knollner and Bacescuella Hrabt. A gutless species, Phallodrilus comorensis sp.n., is described from the Comoro Islands in the Mozambique Channel (W Indian Ocean).

Fahrner A. & Schrödl M. 2000. Redescription of Phyllidiopsis sinaiensis (Yonow, 1988) (Nudibranchia: Doridoidea: Phyllidiidae), with a review of the Red Sea Phyllidiidae. Journal of Molluscan Studies 66(4): 467-476. DOI:10.1093/mollus/66.4.467
Résumé [+] [-]Phyllidiopsis sinaiensis (Yonow, 1988), of which only one single preserved specimen had been known, was rediscovered in the northern Red Sea. The dorsal colour-pattern of living individuals is presented for the first time, and the anatomy of P. sinaiensis is described in detail. Major features of the holotype previously used to characterise the species are shown to be artifacts. Principal distinguishing characters of P. sinaiensis include the central tubercle ridge, large and multicompound, broad based, pink tubercles, bicoloured black and pink rhinophores, the very elongate muscular oesophageal segment, the distinct stomach and the extremely long, convoluted prostate that is bound together by connective tissue. In some specimens, the bases of the tubercles may fuse leading to a predominantely pink dorsum with only a few black lines. Phyllidiopsis sinaiensis appears to be among the most common nudibranchs in the Gulf of Aqaba. The fact that it has not been reported since its original collection in 1980 can be explained by being confused with the externally similar, well-known species Phyllidiella pustulosa (Cuvier, 1804). A review of the phyllidiid fauna of the Red Sea reveals eleven valid species that can all be identified with the key presented herein. With four out of eleven species, phyllidiid endemism (36%) is high in the Red Sea. This is in contrast to recent palaeobiological hypotheses of a post-glacial origin of the Red Sea coral reef fauna.

Forest J. 1987. Ethology and Distribution of Pylochelidae (crustacea Decapoda Coenobitoidea). Bulletin of Marine Science 41(2): 309-321
Résumé [+] [-]The Pylochelidae differ from the other hermit crabs by the complete segmentation of the abdomen and the presence of paired appendages on each of its segments. They do not usually inhabit gastropod shells, but dwell in decayed pieces of wood, stones, tusk-shells, or living sponges. A recent revision, founded on most of the previously recorded specimens and on a large unidentified collection, increased the number of known species from 16 to 39, and the genera from 5 to 7. Two new subgenera have been established, and the family divided into six subfamilies. This paper deals first with the eco-ethological characteristics of the different taxa. According to their dwelling, genera and subgenera can be classified, as a whole, as xylicolous, petricolous, tusk-dwellers, spongicolous, with a few specifical or individual exceptions. In connection with the habitat, adaptive features have been described: opercular structures, boring "rasp," stridulating apparatus ... The Pylochelidae are present in the Indo- West Pacific (36 species or subspecies in 6 genera), and in the NW Atlantic (4 species in 3 genera). Two genera only, belonging to the sole non monotypic subfamily, provide a biogeographical link between the two areas. In I-W.P., the family is known from the SW Indian Ocean to Japan, Kermadec Islands and New Zealand. Indonesia, with 14 species and 5 genera appears as a center of dispersion and diversification. Japanese endemism is noteworthy: one genus and six of the seven species have not been reported elsewhere. The probable relation between the availability of dwelling material and the geographical distribution is also discussed. The vertical distribution extends from 30 to 1,570 m, but the group is mostly represented between 200 and 500 m, where 28 species are living.

Forest J. 1987. Les Pylochelidae ou "Pagures symétriques" (Crustacea Coenobitoidea) 3. Mémoires du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle 137, 273 pp ISBN:2-85653-141-5
Résumé [+] [-]The family Pylochelidae or « symetrical pagurids » (Crustacea Coenobitoidea). Pylochelid Pagurids differ mostly from all other members of the section by a well developped abdomen, in which ail segments are articulated and provided with a pair of appendages, similar in this way to many other Reptant Decapods. They are commonly called " symmetrical " Pagurids, but this is not correct, since in one genus the abdomen, telson and pleopods are noticeably asymmetrical. Our knowledge of the group was restricted to 16 species, recorded from a few rather deep water stations in Indo-West-Pacific and Western Atlantic, most of them known only from their type localities. The abundance of new material, originating mainly from Albatross dredgings and from recent French explorations in the I.W.P. has led to the present systematic revision. As a resuit, 24 new species or subspecies are added to the 16 previously established valid species ; the five known genera, Pomatocheles, Pylocheles, Mixtopagurus, Cheiroplatea, and Parapylocheles, have been redefined, some species of Cheiroplatea transfered to Pylocheles and the latter divided into three subgenera (Pylocheles, Xylocheles subgen. Nov. And Bathycheles subgen. Nov.). Besides, two genera, Cancellocheles gen. Nov. And Trizocheles gen. Nov. Are created. The Pylochelidae could be considered up to now as a restricted family of infrequent species : apart from 3 forms reported in several occasions from Japanese waters, the whole number of specimens recorded in literature did not exceed 60, captured in about 30 stations. The present revision includes more than 400 specimens, collected in ca. 200 stations ! The importance of Pylochelid fauna in tropical and subtropical waters must therefore not be neglected, and, most probably, new taxa and new localities will be added in the future. This research however has not been restricted to the description of new forms. Investigations on relationships between the various généra have shown that the whole group is made up of several distinct phyletic lines, whose respective affinities do not appear clearly, and the family had to be divided, at least provisionnaly, into 6 subfamilies. Regarding the systematic position of the Pylochelidae within the section Paguridea, they are classified in the superfamily Coenobitoidea, and a comparative study of their main characters suggests that they are close to the family Diogenidae. They cannot however be regarded as primitive représentatives of that family : both Diogenidae and Pylochelidae probably have a common ancestor, but evolved separately along various phyletic lines. In the taxonomic part of this work is also described and illustrated for the first time the glaucothoe stage of a Pylochelid, Pomatocheles stridulans sp. Nov. The richness of the new material at the origin of the systematic revision of the family has also provided a quantity of information on the ecology or the habitat of many forms, and on the interprétation of various adaptive morphological structures. According to their dwelling, généra and subgenera can be classified, as a whole, as xylicolous, petricolous, tusk-dwellers, spongicolous, with a few specific or individual exceptions. In connection with the habitat, adaptive features have been described : opercular structures, boring "rasp", stridulating apparatus... The Pylochelidae are known from two disjunct areas, the Indo West-Pacific (36 species or subspecies in 6 genera and 5 subfamilies) and the North Western Atlantic (4 species in 3 généra and 2 subfamilies). In Indo- West Pacific, their distribution is extremely wide, from South Africa to the Kermadec Islands, and from Japan (ca. 38° N) to southern New Zealand (ca. 46° S). Indonesia, with 14 species and 5 généra appears as the center of dispersion and diversification. Japanese endemism is noteworthy : one genera and 6 out of the 7 species have not been reported elsewhere. In North Western Atlantic Pylochelidae, poorly represented, extend from Bardados to the North Western part of the Gulf of Mexico and from ca. 10° N to 35° N. Two genera only, belonging to the sole non monotypic subfamily (Pylochelinae) provide a biogeographical link, probably from Tethyan origin, between the two areas. The probable relation between the availability of dwelling material and the geographical distribution is also discussed. The vertical distribution extends from 30 to 1,570 meters, but the group is mostly represented between 200 and 500 m, where 28 species have been found. 3 species only are presumably usually living above 200 m, 9 have been recorded from 500 to 750 m and no more than 5 beyond.

Résumé [+] [-]The polychelids are large, uncommon, primitive decapods that inhabit the depths of the world oceans down to 5000 m, between latitudes 50°N and 55°S. A study of major deep-sea collecdons led to a revision of the family. All genera and species are redescribed and extended synonymies given. Two new genera are established: Cardus, for Polycheles crucifer (Thomson, 1873) and Homeryon, for Polycheles asper Rathbun, 1906 and a new species, H. armarium. The genus Pentacheles Bate, 1878, is revived to include polychelids in which the epipod on third maxilliped is longer than the ischium: P. gibbus Alcock, 1894, P. laevis Bate, 1878, P. obscurus Bate, 1878, P. synderi (Rathbun, 1906) and P. validus A. Milne Edwards, 1880. Stereomastis Bate, 1888 is considered a synonym of Polycheles Heller, 1862. Willemoesia Grote, 1873 is retained with but four species: W. forceps A. Milne Edwards, 1880, W. inornata Faxon, 1893, W. leptodactyla (Willemoes-Suhm, 1875), and W. pacifica Sund, 1920. In all, thirty-two species are recognized, including six new species. The bathymétrie and geographic ranges are amended and discussed. A key to the genera and species of the family is provided.

Résumé [+] [-]The ascothoracid crustacean genus Petrarca, endoparasites of scleractinian corals, is reviewed and revised. Petrarca bathyactidis, the type-species, is partly redescribed. The range of P. okadai is extended to East Africa. Three new species of Petrarca are described: P. indica in Flabellum deludens from the Indian Ocean near Ceylon; P. morula from Turbinaria sp. in the Banda Sea; P. azorica in Enallopsammia rostrata from the North Atlantic. Zibrowia auriculata gen. et sp. nov. infests Balanophyllia carinata off East Africa, and the same species appears to live in Tubastraea micranthus off East Africa and Dendrophyllia sp. at R6union and in the Comoros. Unlike other ascothoracids, eggs and larvae are not brooded within the carapace valves, though they may be attached to them externally. Nauplii of P. okadai and Z. auriculata are described; they are generalized with familially distinct features. Adults of both genera have an overall neotenic appearance. They always occur in galls in groups of two or more, suggesting simultaneous infestation. Ahermatypic corals or their close hermatypic relatives seem to be preferred hosts, and Petrarca has a wider geographic and depth range than confamilial genera.

Guinot D. 2008. A re-evaluation of the Dynomenidae Ortmann, 1892 (Crustacea, Decapoda, Brachyura, Podotremata), with the recognition of four subfamilies. Zootaxa 1850: 1–26
Résumé [+] [-]A re-evaluation of the Dynomenidae Ortmann, 1892, on the basis of morphological characters, allows four subfamilies to be recognised, viz. Acanthodromiinae n. subfam., Dynomeninae Ortmann, 1892, Metadynomeninae n. subfam., and Paradynomeninae n. subfam. Sequences of character states for each homologous character (morphocline) show a similar polarity. The Acanthodromiinae n. subfam. exhibits a plesiomorphic condition, both in body shape and fronto-orbital disposition as well as in the condition of the thoracic sternum, abdominal holding mechanism and gill structure. Both the Metadynomeninae n. subfam. and Dynomeninae are more advanced, the latter being more “carcinized” and the most derived. The Paradynomeninae n. subfam. evolved a specialised frontal and buccal region, by forming a projecting “face”. The family Dynomenidae, which presently comprises merely five extant genera and 21 species, but with a worldwide distribution, is amongst the most ancestral brachyuran families, with a good fossil record from the Late Jurassic onwards. A few fossil genera such as Kromtitis Müller, 1984, and Kierionopsis Davidson, 1966, appear to conform to the Paradynomeninae n. subfam. A key to the subfamilies of extant Dynomenidae is provided.

Résumé [+] [-]This paper contains a study of the genus Psopheticus based on collections from the area around Madagascar (leg. Crosnier & Cleva, Benthedi Exp.); from Réunion (Marion-Dufresne 1982, MD32); from the Philippines (MUSORSTOM 1-3), from the Makassar Strait (Corindon 2, 1980); and from New Caledonia (Biocal and Musorstom 4, 1985). The type species, P. stridulans Wood-Mason, 1982, is redescribed, based on a topotype, from tyhe Andaman Sea. In addition, the genus contains P. insignis Alcock, 1900 and P. hughu Rathbun, 1914, both of which are redescribed, and P. vocans Guinot, 1985. Three new species are erected : P. crosnieri from Madagascar ; P. musicus from the Philippines ; and P. insolitus from the Makassar Strait. Specimens previously reported as P. stridulans by Guinot, from Réunion, have been reexamined and are considered of uncertain status but close to P. stridulans. A key is provided for identification of the species. The armature of the ambulatory legs was found to be a reliable and complex specific character, indepedant of sex and age, and is described for each species. A large series of P. insignis evidenced pronounced allometry in the growth pattern of the anterolateral edge of the carapace and a sexual dimorphism with longer chelipeds in the male.

Résumé [+] [-]Crustacea Decapoda Brachyura : Revision of the family Homolidae de Haan, 1839. Collections made by scientists from ORSTOM and during French expeditions, resulting from the cooperation of ORSTOM and the Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, in the upper bathyal zone of the Indo-West-Pacific (Madagascar, Seychelles, Indonesia, the Philippines, New Caledonia, Chesterfield Islands, Wallis and Futuna Islands) have accumulated abundant crustacean material. We have added to it the collections by various Australian, German and Soviet expeditions in regions poorly explored until now. We have studied also specimens taken by deep traps near atolls in French Polynesia and in french Anfilles. We have also been able to examine almost all the Homolidae deposited in the large museums of the world, reference and unidentified collections, and thereby to prepare an account of the Hawaiian, Japanese, Indian, African, South African and American faunas. From all these collections it has been possible to revise and restructure the Homolidae world-wide. Examination of all type specimens has been necessary, as has that of all specimens mentioned in the literature; practically all references and all identifications have been verified. The Homolidae comprise now 14 genera, studied in terms of their phylogenetic affinities : eight genera already known (Homola Leach, Paromolopsis Wood-Mason, Paromola Wood-Mason, Latreillopsis Henderson, Homolochunia Doflein, Hypsophrys Wood-Mason, Homolomannia Ihle, Homologenus A. Milne Edwards) ; two former subgenera elevated to generic rank (Homolax Alcock, Moloha Bamard) ; and four new genera (Dagnaudus, Ihlopsis, Yaldwynopsis, Gordonopsis). Until now quite poor in species, the family now contains in the whole 57 species : it is increased by 17 new species ; in addition, about ten uncertain species are leaven apart. In the cases of two genera considered amphi-Atiantic, Homola and Homologenus, a new taxon is described ; Homola minima sp. Nov. Is separated from H. barbata (Fabricius), typically Mediterranean ; and Homologenus boucheti sp. Nov. Is separated from H. rostratus (A. Milne Edwards), from the American Atlantic. Three other new species are added to Homola : H. eldredgei, H. coriolisi and H. ranunculus. The genus Paromola is confined to some species close to P. cuvieri (Risso) and two new taxa are added : P. bathyalis and P. crosnieri. Six species are attributed to Moloha of which the former is the type species M. alcocki (Stebbing), another one the ancient Latreillopsis major of KUBO (validated) ; it is augmented by two new species, M. alisae and M. grandperrini, and also The genus Latreillopsis receives three new species : L. daviei, L. cornuta and L. antennata. The new genus Ihlopsis includes, besides I. multispinosa (Ihle) (formely in Latreillopsis), one new species, I. tirardi. A third species, H. gadaletae, is added to Homolochunia. Only one species is added to Hypsophrys, H. futuna, but the genus is certainly more diverse. Three new species, H. boucheti, H. levii and H. wallis are described in the genus Homologenus. The genus Homolax, poorly known, is well defined. For each genus adiagnosis, an illustration of the principal characteristics and homologies, plus a key to all species are given. Each genus has been strictly redefined with respect to its type species and to all its species. For the numerous poorly known species a description or summary of characters differentiating it from the nearest taxon is presented H has been made by a synthetic study of all important morphological criteria ; we have reviewed all the principal arrangements and structures of Homolidae to understand their homologies and reach rigorous the nomenclature of the grooves and ornamentation of the carapace which have been often confused in the past. Some phylogenetic hypotheses are briefly presented. The place of the Homolidae in Homoloidea is commented on with a key to the three members of the superfamily. Short remarks, which will be completed in another work, on fossil representatives are outlined. Lastly, geographic and bathymétrie distribution of the genera and species are discussed. Each species is represented often with drawings and always by several photographs.

Résumé [+] [-]A number of fusinids from the Indo-Pacific deep-water fauna are studied to get more insight in the distribution and variability. The subgenus Chryseofusus (Gastropoda: Fasciolariidae: Fusinus Rafinesque, 1815) is described as new to accommodate a number of species sharing conchological characteristics different from typical Fusinus. Their separation from Fusinus s.s. is based on differences in axial sculpture (usually absent on body whorl), spiral sculpture (weak, close-set, regular, crossed by distinct growth lines), shape (shorter spire, shorter siphonal canal, less convex whorls with subsutural concavity, less constricted suture) and parietal callus (inner lip smooth, parietal wall covered with an extended, adherent thin layer as callus). Fusinus (Chryseofusus) bradneri (Drivas and Jay, 1990), F. (C.) chrysodomoides (Schepman, 1911), F. (C.) graciliformis (Sowerby, 1880), F. (C.) hyphalus M. Smith, 1940, F. (C.) jurgeni Hadorn and Fraussen, 2002, F. (C.) kazdailisi Fraussen and Hadorn, 2000 and F. (C.) subangulatus (von Martens, 1901) are briefly described and their taxonomic placement in the new subgenus is discussed. To avoid further taxonomic complications, a lectotype is designated for the correct F. (C.) chrysodomoides. F. (C.) acherius (west Madagascar, Mozambique Channel, 1475-1530 m), F. (C.) alisae (north New Caledonia, 444-452 m), F. (C.) artutus (Philippines, Bohol, deep water), F. (C.) cadus (south New Caledonia, 460-470 m), F. (C.) dapsilis (Vietnam, deep water), F. (C.) riscus (New Caledonia, Norfolk Ridge, 394-401 m), F. (C.) scissus (south New Caledonia, 535 m), F. (C.) wareni ( New Caledonia, 480 m), and F. (C.) westralis (northwest Australia, off Port Hedland, 450 m) are described as new to science.

Résumé [+] [-]The genus Granulifusus is distributed over the upper continental shelves in the Indo-West Pacific. The 27 species (21 Recent, 6 fossil) are characterized and separated from Fusinus by a granulated surface sculpture, the Recent also by a small round operculum which does not fill the aperture. Fusus (Sipho) libratus Watson 1886 and Latirus staminatus Garrard 1966 are placed in Granulifusus, their transfer based on the above mentioned conchological characteristics and on radular evidence. Granulifusus niponicus (E.A. Smith 1879), G. kiranus Shuto 1958, G. rubrolineatus (Sowerby II 1870), G. staminatus (Garrard 1966) and G. libratus (Watson 1886) were collected during the Musorstom expeditions and the material is extensively reported on.

Hanafi-portier M., Samadi S., Corbari L., Chan T.Y., Chen W.J., Chen J.N., Lee M.Y., Mah C., Saucède T., Borremans C. & Olu K. 2021. When Imagery and Physical Sampling Work Together: Toward an Integrative Methodology of Deep-Sea Image-Based Megafauna Identification. Frontiers in Marine Science 8: 749078. DOI:10.3389/fmars.2021.749078
Résumé [+] [-]Imagery has become a key tool for assessing deep-sea megafaunal biodiversity, historically based on physical sampling using fishing gears. Image datasets provide quantitative and repeatable estimates, small-scale spatial patterns and habitat descriptions. However, taxon identification from images is challenging and often relies on morphotypes without considering a taxonomic framework. Taxon identification is particularly challenging in regions where the fauna is poorly known and/or highly diverse. Furthermore, the efficiency of imagery and physical sampling may vary among habitat types. Here, we compared biodiversity metrics (alpha and gamma diversity, composition) based on physical sampling (dredging and trawling) and towed-camera still images (1) along the upper continental slope of Papua New Guinea (sedimented slope with wood-falls, a canyon and cold seeps), and (2) on the outer slopes of the volcanic islands of Mayotte, dominated by hard bottoms. The comparison was done on selected taxa (Pisces, Crustacea, Echinoidea, and Asteroidea), which are good candidates for identification from images. Taxonomic identification ranks obtained for the images varied among these taxa (e.g., family/order for fishes, genus for echinoderms). At these ranks, imagery provided a higher taxonomic richness for hard-bottom and complex habitats, partially explained by the poor performance of trawling on these rough substrates. For the same reason, the gamma diversity of Pisces and Crustacea was also higher from images, but no difference was observed for echinoderms. On soft bottoms, physical sampling provided higher alpha and gamma diversity for fishes and crustaceans, but these differences tended to decrease for crustaceans identified to the species/morphospecies level from images. Physical sampling and imagery were selective against some taxa (e.g., according to size or behavior), therefore providing different facets of biodiversity. In addition, specimens collected at a larger scale facilitated megafauna identification from images. Based on this complementary approach, we propose a robust methodology for image-based faunal identification relying on a taxonomic framework, from collaborative work with taxonomists. An original outcome of this collaborative work is the creation of identification keys dedicated specifically to in situ images and which take into account the state of the taxonomic knowledge for the explored sites.

Résumé [+] [-]The genus Puellina (Bryozoa, Cheilostomata, Cribrilinidae) appears to be particularly diverse in the upper bathyal of the Atlanto-Mediterranean province. Material from several regions (Azores, Canary Is., Ibero-Moroccan Bay, Straits of Gibraltar, Alboran Sea, NW Mediterranean Sea) includes four new species: P. denticulata sp. nov.; P. bathyalis sp. nov.; P. setiformis sp. nov.; P.pseudoradiata sp. nov. Two of these new species are polytypic, each of them presenting a Canarian population (P. setiformis setiformis ssp. nov., P. pseudoradiata canariensis ssp. nov.) diverging by constant microanatomical characters from a Mediterranean morphotype (P.setiformis romana ssp. nov., P.pseudoradiata pseudoradiata ssp. nov.). Puellina seripta (Reuss, 1848), first described from the Badenian (Mid-Miocene) of Europe, is recorded for the first time with certainty in Recent seas; it is confined to the upper slope throughout a Tethyan distribution (Gibraltar, Florida, Indian ocean, Pacific ocean). A deep-sea form of P. corbula Bishop and Househam, 1987, without avicularia, is distinguished in the NW Mediterranean sea and in Ibero-Moroccan stations affected by the deep Mediterranean water outflow where it coexists with the Mediterranean morphotype of P. pseudoradiata. The subdivision of the genus Puellina into three subgenera introduced by Bishop and Househam (1987) is followed and discussed, with remarks on the integrational gradient of the avicularium within this genus.

Komai T. 2004. A review of the Indo-West Pacific species of the genus Glyphocrangon A. Milne-Edwards, 1881 (excluding the G. caeca species group) (Crustacea: Decapoda: Caridea: Glyphocrangonidae), in Marshall B.A. & Richer de forges B.(Eds), Tropical Deep-Sea Benthos 23. Mémoires du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle 191:375-610, ISBN:2-85653-557-7
Résumé [+] [-]A review of the species of the caridean genus Glyphocrangon A. Milne-Edwards, 1881 from the Indo-West Pacific Oceans is presented based on rich collections formed during French expeditions to various regions, and supplemented by extensive material deposited in various institutions throughout the world. The genus is divided into two informal groups primarily based on the development of the eye and the presence or absence of arthrobranchs on the first and second pereopods. This study treats species characterized by a well-developed eye and the presence of arthrobranchs on the first and second pereopods (herein called the Glyphocrangon spinicauda species group). A total of 54 species are recognized in the G. spinicauda species group from the Indo-West Pacific region. Of these, the following 28 are new to science: G. albatrossae (Philippines), G. amblytes (Madagascar and South Africa), G. armata (New Caledonia, Vanuatu, Fiji, Wallis and Futuna islands), G. boletifera (Gulf of Aden), G. chacei (Philippines), G. confusa (Indonesia), G. cornuta (New Caledonia), G. crosnieri (Madagascar), G. conodactylus (New Caledonia), G. dimorpha (New Caledonia), G. ferox (Madagascar), G. formosana (Taiwan and East China Sea), G. indonesiensis (Philippines and Indonesia), G. kapala (eastern Australia), G. saintlaurentae (western Indian Ocean), G. major (New Caledonia), G. lineata (Indonesia and northwestern Australia), G. parva (Philippines), G. perplexa (Japan and Taiwan), G. proxima (Philippines and Indonesia), G. punctata (Philippines), G. richeri (Wallis and Futuna islands), G. robusta (Philippines), G. rubricinctuta (Wallis and Futuna islands), G. runcinata (East China Sea), G. similior (Coral Sea), G. speciosa (New Caledonia), and G. tasmanica (Tasman Sea). Glyphocrangon andamanensis Wood-Mason & Alcock, 1891 and G. mabahissae Calman, 1939, which have been considered to be synonymous with G. investigatoris Wood-Mason in Wood-Mason & Alcock, 1891 and G. dentata Barnard, 1926 respectively, are found to be distinct species. Glyphocrangon juxtaculeata Chace, 1984, the holotype of which is a juvenile, is considered to be a junior subjective synonym of G. regalis Bate, 1888. Glyphocrangon joani Allen & Butler, 1994 is treated as a junior synonym of G. fimbriata Komai & Takeuchi, 1994. Plastocrangon Alcock, 1901 is interpreted as a synonym of Glyphocrangon. The new species are fully described and illustrated, and all but three of the previously known species are redescribed and illustrated: G. gilesii and G. smithii being diagnosed on the basis of published information, G. unguiculata Wood-Mason in Wood-Mason & Alcock, 1891 on published information and provisionally identified material from the western Pacific. One obscurely diagnosed species, G. wagini Burukovsky, 1990 from the southeastern Pacific, is also redescribed in order to establish its affinities. Lectotypes are designated for G. acuminata Bate, 1888, G. pugnax de Man, 1918, G. assimilis de Man, 1918, G. sibogae de Man, 1918, and G. megalophthalma de Man, 1918. Identification key, separated by sex, is provided. This study reveals that most Glyphocrangon species have restricted geographical ranges, with only G. caecescens occurring in both the western Pacific and Indian oceans. The geographic and bathymetric distributions of the treated species are summarized.

Komai T. 2008. A world-wide review of species of the deep-water crangonid genus Parapontophilus Christoffersen, 1988 (Crustacea, Decapoda, Caridea), with descriptions of ten new species. Zoosystema 30(2): 261-332
Résumé [+] [-]A review of species of the genus Parapontophilus Christoffersen, 1988 (Decapoda, Caridea, Crangonidae) from the world oceans is presented. This Study is based on the large collection obtained during French expeditions in the eastern Atlantic, western Indian, and tropical western and southern Pacific oceans, and on additional material from various museums and institutions in the world. Eighteen species, including ten new species, are divided in two informal species groups, P. gracilis (Smith, 1882) group and P modumanuensis (Rathbun, 1906) group. The first group contains I I species: P. gracilis (type species of the genus), P abyssi (Smith, 1884), P. junceus (Bate, 1888), P. profundus (Bate, 1888), P occidentalis (Faxon, 1893), P talismani (Crosnier & Forest, 1973), P cornutus n. sp., P cyrton n. sp., P difficilis n. sp., P. geminus n. sp. and P. longirostris n. sp. The second group contains seven species: P. modumanuensis (Rathbun, 1906), P. demani (Chace, 1984), P caledonicus n. sp., P. juxta n. sp., P. psyllus n. sp., P. sibogae n. sp. and P. stenorhinus in. sp. Six taxa originally described as full species by their authors and occasionally treated as subspecies, viz. P. gracilis, P abyssi, P. junceus, P. profundus, P occidentalis, and P talismani, are here maintained as full species because of the existence of morphological differences and of the partial overlap of geographical or bathymetrical ranges. All species are diagnosed or rediagnosed, and illustrated. Synonymies of Pontophilus challengeri Ortmann, 1893 with Parapontophilus abyssi and of Pontophilus occidentalis var. indica de Man, 1918 with Parapontophilus junceus were con firmed. A key to aid in the identification of all Parapontophilus species is given, although it should be used with caution because of intraspecific variations exhibited by many of the species. Bathymetrical and geographical distributions of species are also summarized. All but P. sibogae n. sp. are exclusively found at more than 200 in depth, and particularly three species, P. abyssi, P occidentalis, and P talismani, occur at abyssal depths exceeding 3000 m. Parapontophilus sibogae inhabits shallow water, recorded at depth of I I m in the type locality. Two species, P gracilis and P talismani, appear restricted to the Atlantic Ocean, although widely distributed there. Three species, P abyssi, P longirostris n. sp., and P. juxta n. sp. occur in the Indian Ocean; P abyssi is also widely distributed in the Atlantic and P longirostris extends to the central Pacific. Parapontophilus occidentalis appears restricted to the eastern Pacific. Other species are distributed in the range of the western Pacific to French Polynesia.

Résumé [+] [-]Twenty-eight species (25 new) in twenty genera in five families of myodocopid Ostracoda are described and illustrated from collections made mostly at shelf and upper bathyal depths in the northeastern end of the Mozambique Channel, primarily from the vicinity of Mayotte (Commoro Islands) and the Glorioso Islands, Geyser, Leven, and Zelee banks (Madagascar). All specimens were collected by French personnel during the Benth6di Expedition of 1977, under the auspices of three French institutions: Station Marine d'Endoume, University d'Aix-Marseille; Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique; Centre National pour 1'Exploitation des Oceans. The ontogeny is described for three new species of Codonocera, Rutiderma, and Synasterope, and a graph is presented showing the approximate relationship between the percentage of myodocopid species worldwide having lateral eyes and the depth of water in which they live. A possible relationship between morphology, locomotion, and mating habitat is discussed for the genus Harbansus.

Résumé [+] [-]Suite du volume 1 de la faune des Amphipodes gammariens marins de Madagascar, ce travail traite de la famille des Haustoriidae à celle des Vitzjazianidae. Des récoltes provenant de la mission Safari (Aout-Septembre 1979), au Sud de Madagascar et des reliquats de la campage "Benthédi" m'ayant été adressés en septembre 1980, quelques animaux, appartenant aux familles traitées dans le volume 1, n'ont pu être étudiés à temps pour prendre leur place logique. Ils sont regroupés ici dans l'addendum qui traite aussi de quelques espèces, généralement d'origine profonde, qui n'ont pu être déterminées avec précision. Toutefois elles présentent des particularités qui indiquent qu'elles sont nouvelles pour la région malgache. J'ai pensé qu'il était bon de les figurer, dans la mesure du possible, et de tenter une première mise en place de ce matériel. En ce qui concerne le Volume II proprement dit (addendum exclu), 173 espèces sont décrites. Elles se répartissent en 24 familles et 89 genres. Parmi ces espèces, 46 espèces et 4 sous-espèces sont nouvelles pour la Science, 4 étant le type de genres nouveaux.

Résumé [+] [-]Parapagurid hermit crabs are reported for the first time from French Polynesia, based on a collection obtained during a deep-water trapping survey by the French government's Service Mixte de Contrôle Biologique des Armées. The collection contains nine species of the genus Sympagurus Smith, 1883, four of which are new, and one of Slrobopagurus Lemaitre, 1989. The material of the previously described species of Sympagurus found in French Polynesia is compared with types and supplemental specimens from other IndoPacific regions, and the species diagnosed in light of a recent re-evaluation of diagnostic characters in this genus. Based on examination of representative material of ail Sympagurus species from the world oceans, three informai groups are proposed for the species. Group 1, including nine species, is defined by the presence of a slender, curved epistomial spine; Group 2, including ten species, is defined by the presence of a vestigial pleurobranch on each side of the last thoracic somite; and a heterogenous Group 3, for the remaining 14 species and three subspecies, all of which lack a curved epistomial spine and vestigial pleurobranch on the last thoracic somite. A list of all known species of Sympagurus is presented, along with their geographic and bathymetric distributions.

Résumé [+] [-]A review of the deep-water hermit crab species of the genus Parapagurus Smith, 1879 from the Indian and Pacific Oceans is presented based on abundant samples obtained during French expeditions to the New Caledonia region, and supplemented with extensive material deposited in various major museums and institutions throughout the world. A total of 14 species were found to occur in the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Of these seven are new, P. richeri sp. nov., P. furici sp. nov., P. stenorhinus sp. nov., P. saintlaurentae sp. nov., P. janetae sp. nov., P. foraminosus sp. nov., and P. woljfi sp. nov.; and three, P. abyssorum (Filhol, 1885), P. bouvieri Stebbing, 1910, and P. andreui Macpherson, 1984, include parts of the Atlantic Ocean in their distribution. The new species are fully described and illustrated; all previously known species are diagnosed or in the case of one obscurely defined species, P. holihuisi Lemaitre, 1989, redescribed. Information on morphological variations is included for the most abundant species, and a key to aid in the identification of all 14 species is given. Of the seven new species, P. richeri sp. nov. and P. furici sp. nov., were found in the New Caledonia region but are also distributed elsewhere in the Indo-Pacific; P. saintlaurentae sp. nov. and P. stenorhinus sp. nov., have been found exclusively in the Indian Ocean; and P. janetae sp. nov., P. foraminosus sp. nov., and P. wolffi sp. nov., exclusively in the eastern Pacific. As result of this study, the genus now contains 17 species, of which P. pilosimanus Smith, 1879, P. nudus (A. Milne-Edwards, 1891), and P. alaminos Lemaitre, 1986, are so far known only from the Atlantic Ocean. The bathymétrie distribution of all species in the genus is summarized.

Résumé [+] [-]A review of species of the genus Sympagurus Smith, 1883 (sensu Lemaitre) from the world oceans is presented. The study is based on the rich collections obtained during French campaigns in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, and on additional material in various museums and research institutions throughout the world. The 17 species recognised in this genus occur most frequently between 500 and 1000 m depth, and range from 80 to 2537 m. Some live in striking symbiosis with anthozoan or zoanthid coelenterates that can produce pseudo-shells. Three new species, S. aurantium, S. chani and S. symmetricus, are fully described and illustrated here. Sympagurus rectichela (Zarenkov 1990), a taxon originally described in Parapagurus Smith, 1879, has been found to be a junior synonym of S. dofleini (Balss, 1912); and S. papposus Lemaitre, 1996 is a junior synonym of S. burkenroadi Thompson, 1943. All previously known Sympagurus species are diagnosed or redescribed and illustrated, and data on habitat, symbiotic associations, and coloration are provided. A key to aid in the identification of all Sympagurus species is presented, and their bathymetric and geographic distributions are summarised. The geographic distribution of 14 species (82.3%) includes the Pacific Ocean, 9 (52.9.%) the Indian Ocean, and 3 (1.8%) the Atlantic Ocean. New Caledonia and adjacent islands have the highest number of Sympagurus species in the world, with 12 species known to occur there.

Mémoires du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle 204:311-421, ISBN:978-2-85653-692-6
Résumé [+] [-]A review of the deep-water hermit crab species of the genus Paragiopagurus Lemaitre, 1996 from the world oceans is presented. The core specimen base for this study has come primarily from the abundant collections of species of this genus obtained during French campaigns over the last four decades, and complemented with numerous specimens from many other deep-sea expeditions and deposited in various museum holdings around the world. Paragiopagurus is one of the most speciose genus among the Parapaguridae Smith, 1882, although it is considered a phylogenetically heterogeneous assemblage and does not appear to have an apomorphy of its own. Bathymetrically, the species range in depth from 36 to 2034 m, although they occur most frequently between 200 and 1000 m. The species utilize as housing, gastropod shells (or rarely scaphopod shells, siliceous sponges, or hollow pieces of wood) that may or may not be colonized by actinians or zoanthids. In this review, 24 species are recognized, of which five are new, P. laperousei n. sp., P. orthotenes n. sp., P. oxychelos n. sp., P. trilineatus n. sp., and P. umbonatus n. sp. The new species are fully described and illustrated. All previously known species of the genus are diagnosed or redescribed, and previously published illustrations of important taxonomic characters assembled and complemented, when useful, with new illustrations. The treatment of each species includes a full synonymy, materials examined (type and non-types), colouration, habitat or type of housing used, distribution, and remarks on taxonomy and morphological affinities. Colour photographs are included for 14 of the species. Parapagurus curvispina de Saint Laurent, 1974, a species tentatively moved after its description to Sympagurus Smith, 1883 and then to Paragiopagurus, is herein transferred with certainty to Oncopagurus Lemaitre, 1996. Parapagurus spinimanus Balss, 1911, a species that had been incorrectly placed in Paragiopagurus, is herein moved to Sympagurus. Parapagurus sculptochela Zarenkov, 1990, a taxon previously considered a junior synonym of Paragiopagurus boletifer (de Saint Laurent, 1972), is herein resurrected as a valid species of Paragiopagurus. The bathymetric and geographic distributions of Paragiopagurus species are summarized and briefly discussed, including a summary table, graph, and map with generalized distribution patterns.

Lemaitre R. 2014. A worldwide taxonomic and distributional synthesis of the genus Oncopagurus Lemaitre, 1996 (Crustacea: Decapoda: Anomura: Parapaguridae), with descriptions of nine new species. The Raffles Bulletin of Zoology 62: 210–301
Résumé [+] [-]A worldwide taxonomic and distributional synthesis of the deep-water hermit crab genus Oncopagurus Lemaitre, 1996 is presented. This genus, originally defined for 10 species is set apart from other Parapaguridae as well as other Paguroidea, by one synapomorphy: the presence of an upwardly curved epistomial spine. This study is based on a large amount of specimens deposited in major museums and collected during deep-sea sampling across the world oceans since the late 1800s, with the bulk of material coming from French campaigns in the Indo-Pacific, central and south Pacific during the last 40 years. A total of 24 species are recognised in this investigation, nine of which are new and fully described and illustrated. All previously known species are diagnosed or re-described, including figures assembled from recent published accounts or newly illustrated, of the most important morphological features useful for identifi cations. Information for each species includes a synonymy (full or abbreviated if a synonymy has recently been published), material examined (type and non-types), variations when signifi cant, colouration when available, habitat or type of housing used, distribution, and remarks on taxonomy and morphological affinities. Rare colour photographs are included for five species. Species of Oncopagurus range in depth from the Continental Shelf (50 m) to the Continental Rise (2308 m), although they are most commonly found in 50–500 m. Individuals of the majority of species in this genus are minute in size (< 3 mm in shield length), species differ in subtle morphological characters, and often exhibit the same broad morphological variations related to sex and size that has been documented in species of other genera of Parapaguridae. Oncopagurus mironovi Zhadan, 1997, a taxon reported from the Nazca and Sala-y-Gómez Ridges, is considered a junior synonym of the widely distributed O. indicus (Alcock, 1905). The bathymetric and geographic distributions of Oncopagurus species are summarised and briefly discussed, complemented with a summary table, graph, and map with generalised distribution patterns. The scant phylogenetic knowledge of this genus is summarised.

Résumé [+] [-]Based on the material deposited in the Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris, collected from the Indo-West Pacific, principally from the New Caledonian region, the present paper reports 117 palaemonoid shrimp species, which belong, respectively, to Anchistioididae ( one genus, one species), Gnathophyllidae ( one genus, one species), Palaemonidae Palaemoninae ( seven genera, nine species), and Palaemonidae Pontoniinae ( 30 genera, 106 species), including eight new species. The new species are all Pontoniinae: Mesopontonia brevicarpalis sp. nov., Palaemonella komaii sp. nov., Periclimenes crosnieri sp. nov., Periclimenes forgesi sp. nov., Periclimenes loyautensis sp. nov., Periclimenes paralcocki sp. nov., Periclimenes paraleator sp. nov., and Periclimenes pseudalcocki sp. nov. The last six new species are members of the deep-water "Periclimenes alcocki species complex'', which has more than two ( usually four) pairs of dorsolateral telson spines anterior to the posterior telson margin, the cornea is usually reduced, the dactyl of the major second chela is generally flanged and the chela is sometimes covered with small tubercles. The complex is usually found at more than 200m depth in the West Pacific. The species can be distinguished from each other by the armature of ambulatory propod and dactyl, diameter of cornea, rostrum shape and the number of pairs of dorsolateral telson spines. Mesopontonia brevicarpalis sp. nov., from the southeast coast of Africa, is the seventh species of the genus. Palaemonella komaii sp. nov. is very similar to Palaemonella dolichodactylus Bruce, 1991 and Palaemonella hachijo Okuno, 1999. These three species share the features of very long and slender ambulatory pereiopods with the dactyl more than eight times longer than its basal depth and with several long setae on the dorsal dactylar margin.

Lowry j. k. & Stoddart h. e. 1992. A Revision of the genus Ichnopus (Crustacea: Amphipoda: Lysianassoidea: Uristidae). Records of the Australian Museum 44: 185-245
Résumé [+] [-]The uristid genus Ichnopus is revised and Glycerina included in its synonymy. A key is provided to the world species. Ichnopus pelagicus Schellenberg, I. pseudoserricrus Ledoyer, I. serricrus Walker, I. spinicornis Boeck, I. taurus Costa, (type species), I. tenuicornis (Haswell), I. teretis (Andres) and I. woodmasoni (Giles) are redescribed. The new species I. annasona, I. capricornus, I. caritus, I. comorensis, I. cribensis, I. malpatun, I. parriwi and I. wardi are described. Ichnopus nossibeensis Ledoyer is considered to be a synonym of I. pelagicus. Ichnopus macrobetomma Stebbing is considered to be an unrecognisable species. Two species groups are recognised: the I. spinicornis group, in which the ischium and carpus of gnathopod 1 are long and most species are pelagic, probably micropredators; and the I. taurus group, in which the ischium and carpus of gnathopod 1 are very long and most species are demersal scavengers. Ichnopus is considered to be . A tropical to warm temperate Indo-Pacific genus with some remnants in the Mediterranean and the eastern North Atlantic Ocean. The most primitive species in both groups are found in the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern North Atlantic. It appears that the modern genus had its origins in the old Tethyan fauna.

Lunina A.A., Kulagin D.N. & Vereshchaka A.L. 2019. A hard-earned draw: phylogeny-based revision of the deep-sea shrimp Bentheogennema (Decapoda: Benthesicymidae) transfers two species to other genera and reveals two new species. Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society 187(4): 1155-1172. DOI:10.1093/zoolinnean/zlz070
Résumé [+] [-]Abstract The phylogenetic study of the deep-sea genus Bentheogennema is based on four molecular markers and 79 morphological characters. All four previously recognized species and two new species of Bentheogennema, representatives of all other genera and species groups of Benthesicymidae, and three outgroups were included in the analyses. We have examined and coded six major groups of morphological characters related to the carapace (three characters), the pleon and the telson (14), the mouthparts (nine), the armature of the pereopods (five), the thelycum (27) and the petasma (21). Results of morphological and molecular analyses were similar. Two species were transferred from Bentheogennema to other genera (for one of them a new genus was erected) and two new species of Bentheogennema were described. Three pelagic genera (Gennadas, Bentheogennema and a new genus) created a robust clade. The divergence of this clade is linked to ‘smoothening’ of the body (reduction of the branchiostegal spine on the carapace, reduction and loss of the dorsolateral spines and the end-piece on the telson) and elaboration of the copulatory structures. We provide amended diagnoses of these three pelagic genera and key to species of Bentheogennema.

Luque Á.A., Geiger D.L. & Rolán E. 2011. A revision of the genus Satondella Bandel, 1998 (Gastropoda, Scissurellidae). Molluscan Research 31(1): 1-14
Résumé [+] [-]This revision of the scissurellid genus Satondella Bandel, 1998 is mainly based on shell characters due to the availability of only a few live collected specimens. There are seven Recent species (two described as new) and one Eocene fossil. Satondella minuta Bandel, 1998, the type species from Indonesia, is redescribed and its range extended to New Caledonia, Solomon and Fiji Islands. Satondella tabulata (Watson, 1886) is only known from type material off Culebra Island (Puerto Rico); lectotype and paralectotypes are here designated, and similar material from the Indo-Pacific is discussed. Satondella brasiliensis (Mattar, 1987) is another W. Atlantic species, ranging from Bermuda to Brazil. Satondella senni (Geiger, 2003) is only known from the E. Pacific (Easter Island) and Satondella danieli Segers, Swinnen & Abreu, 2009 from the NE. Atlantic Ocean (Desertas and Madeira Islands). The two new species are distributed through the E. Indian and W. Pacific oceans (S. cachoi n. sp.) and W. Pacific (S. dantarti n. sp.). The Tongan Eocene fossil S. kondoi (Ladd, 1970) is redescribed and illustrated with SEM images. Satondella brasiliensis and S. cachoi have a typical scissurellid radula, except for uniquely having one cusp on the inner edge of the third lateral. The monophyly of the genus is discussed, since species currently included in Satondella show two clearly different shell patterns but all share the unique chimney-like foramen.

Résumé [+] [-]Sixty-six species of the genus Munidopsis have been studied using specimens collected during numerous French expeditions carried out in the last decades in the deep-waters of the southwest Indian and southwest Pacific Oceans, between 140 and 4400 m. Twenty-five new species are described, and the diagnoses and illustrations of some relatively rare species (M. africana, M. debilis, M. lenzii, M. moresbyi, M. orcina, M. sinclairi, M. stylirostris and M. wardeni) are provided. The reestablishment of the genus Galacantha is proposed, including the descriptions/diagnoses and a key to all species. The genus contains nine species, including three new species (G. bellis, G. diomedeae, G. quiquei n. sp., G. rostrata, G. spinosa, G. subrostrata n. sp., G. subspinosa n. sp., G. trachynotus and G. valdiviae). The number of species collected by station is very small (usually one species), probably related to their low densities. However, in some samples, as many as five species have been found. The highest number of species have been observed in the Banda Sea (Indonesia) and Solomon Islands. The new records of some species greatly extend the previously known distribution range of the species.

Résumé [+] [-]The genus Galathea is one of the most speciose and unwieldy groups in the family Galatheidae. The examination of more than 9000 specimens of 144 species collected in the Indian and Pacific Oceans using morphological and molecular characters, has revealed the existence of 92 new species. The specimens examined during this study were obtained by various French expeditions supplemented by other collections from various sources, and including the type specimens of some previously described species. Most of the new species are distinguished by subtle but constant morphological differences, which are in agreement with molecular divergences of the mitochondrial markers COI and/or 16S rRNA. Here, we describe and illustrate the new species and redescribe some previously described species for which earlier accounts are not sufficiently detailed for modern standards. Furthermore we include a dichotomous identification key to all species in the genus from the Indian and Pacific Oceans.

Résumé [+] [-]Grain-size distribution, texture (mud content) and quantitative bioclastic component analyses from outer barrier reef and lagoonal environments of Mayotte Island show that reefal and lagoonal sediments are clearly separated. Analysis of major bioclastic components allows the recognition of five sedimentary groups of "facies", each of them being significant of a particular zone. They are (1) coral-mollusc on the outer barrier reef slope, (2) coral-calcareous red algae on reef flats, (3) mollusc-coral and/or (4) mollusc-Halimeda at the lagoonal bottoms with coral build-ups or lagoonal plains with free living corals, and (5) mollusc-foraminifera on lagoonal plains; mollusc fragments pervade muddy substrates. In the lagoon the dominance of molluscs reflects the trophic regime related to the island terrigeneous influx. The bioclastic sediment composition generally reflects the nature of the benthic community living in this lagoon. This observation as well as textural and granulometric evidence show that the bulk of the sandy bioclastic material is in situ and has suffered little transport. Some relict grains are present in littoral muddy sands while probably older particles (black/green result of diagenesis) occur in the deeper parts of the lagoon. Textural parameters are more environmentally significant than granulometric ones.

Marine Geology 47(1): 37–55. DOI:10.1016/0025-3227(82)90018-4
Résumé [+] [-]The Comores Archipelago is extended to the east by several emerged (Glorieuses, Geyser) and submerged (Zélée, Leven, Cordelière) reef-banks. These topographic features have been investigated by echosounding and magnetometry, and volcanic rocks have been sampled on their slopes (Geyser). All these data give some information about the origin of the banks: (1) The bathymetry suggests that the banks are coral limestones and biogenic carbonate sediments capping the top of the volcanic structures. (2) The magnetic anomalies reflect volcanic basement and are generally localised on the summit or upon the slopes of the banks. (3) The hyaloclastic rocks sampled on the slopes of the Geyser reef-bank are related with subaerial or hydroexplosive volcanism. The Comores Archipelago and the banks of the northeastern Mozambique Channel mark the boundary between the Mesozo'/c oceanic Somali Basin and the continental substratum of the Comores Basin. The basaltic magma appears to have been intruded along the north-west trending fracture zones related with southward movement of Madagascar relative to the African mainland.

Résumé [+] [-]A new classification is presented based on the results of the recently completed cladistic analysis of the Pylochelidae. The subfamilies Pylochelinae and Pomatochelinae are retained, the latter with the genera Pylocheles and Cheiroplatea; however, the subgenera Xylocheles and Bathycheles are elevated to generic rank together with the nominal subgenus Pylocheles. In addition, one new species, B. phenax, is described in Bathycheles and B. profundus is shown to be conspecific with B. integer. The subfamilies Parapylochelinae, Cancellochelinae, Trizochelinae, and Mixtopagurinae are reduced to ranks of tribes and included in the subfamily Trizochelinae. A new genus Forestocheles is proposed in the tribe Trizochelini. Within the genus Trizocheles, subspecific rank for T. spinosus bathamae is deemed unjustified and this taxon is placed in synonymy with the nominal subspecies T spinosus spinosus. The correct identity of Trizocheles balssi is established and the species mistakenly thought to represent that taxon is described as T. hoensonae, new species. Trizocheles gracilis is found to be conspecific with T. boasi and an additional new species, T. mendanai, is added to the genus. The superfamilial ranks of Cheiroplateoidea, Pomatocheloidea, Pylocheloidea, and Cancellocheloidea proposed by Watabe (2007) are rejected, as is Birgusoidea.

Mclay C.L. 1999. Crustacea Decapoda: Revision of the Family Dynomenidae, in Crosnier A.(Ed.), Résultats des campagnes MUSORSTOM 20. Mémoires du Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle 180:427-569, ISBN:2-85653-520-3
Résumé [+] [-]The Dynomenidae are a group of small, uncommon, primitive crabs, which are often associated with corals. They inhabit depths down to around 500 m, between latitudes 40°N and 40°S. All genera and species are revised and redescribed, and the genus Dynomene Desmarest, 1823 is divided into two additional genera. As a result, there are thirteen known species belonging to five genera: Dynomene Desmarest, 1823 [D. hispida Guérin-Méneville, 1832, D. praedator A. Milne Edwards, 1879, D. pugnatrix de Man, 1889, D. filholi Bouvier, 1894, and D. pilumnoides Alcock, 1900], Hirsutodynomene gen. nov. [H. spinosa (Rathbun, 1911), and H. ursula (Stimpson, li>60)], Metadynomene gen. nov. [Ai. devaneyi (Takeda, 1977), M. tanensis (Yokoya, 1933), and M. crosnieri sp. nov.], Acanlliodromia A. Milne Edwards, 1880 [A. erinacea A. Milne Edwards, 1880, and A. margarita (Alcock, 1899)], and Paradynomene Sakai, 1963 [P. tuberculata Sakai, 1963]. A key is provided to identify these species. In addition nine fossil genera, dating from the Upper Jurassic, are known: Stephanonietopon Bosquet, 1854, Dromiopsis Reuss, 1859, Palaeodromites A. Milne Edwards, 1865, Cyamocarcinus Bittner, 1883, Graptocarcinus Roemer, 1887, Cyclothyreus Remes, 1895, Gemmellarocarcinus Checchia-Rispoli, 1905, Glyptodynomene Van Straelen, 1944, Trachynotocarcinus Wright & Collins, 1972. Some extinct species have also been placed in the genus Dynomene. The definition of the family Dynomenidae given by ALCOCK (1901) is updated and expanded in order to allow fossil species to be more accurately determined. Because of overlap with the Dromiidae, there has been some uncertainty about true family affinities of some fossils. Although these genera are in need of revision, this is not undertaken in this paper. The status oi Dynomene pilumnoides is established as a valid species, D. pugnatrix brevimana Rathbun. 1911 is synonymized with D. pugnatrix de Man, 1889, D. granulobata Dai, Yang & Lan, 1981 is a synonym of D. hispida, while D. sinensis Chen, 1979, D. tenuilobata Dai, Yang & Lan, 1981, and D. huangluensis Dai, Cai & Yang, 1996 are all synonyms of D. praedator. Dynomenids are reported from Australia for the first time in D. pilumnoides, and Hirsutodynomene spinosa. The status of Metadynomene tanensis (Yokoya, 1933) is established as a widespread Pacific species and shown to be part of the fauna of Japan, where it has been confused with D. praedator. Paradynomene tuberculata, previously known from Japan and New Caledonia, is now recorded from the Gulf of Aden, Indian Ocean. P. tuberculata as well as D. praedator and H. spinosa, are reported from Guam. The Atlantic Ocean and the Indo-Pacific share genera of dynomenids but not species. The biogeographic history of dynomenids is interpreted in the liglit of tfieir present distribution and in relation to plate tectonics. Ancestral dynomenids are assumed to have been tethyan crabs and D. filholi and Acanthodromia erinacea, two insular Atlantic species, are shown to be tethyan relicts. By contrast, Hirsutodynomene ursula from the eastem Pacific, seems to be a species of quite recent origin. In redescribing the species particular attention is paid to some new characters: setae, gills, epipods and gill cleaning mechanisms, the subchelate structure of the last pereopods and the male pleopods. This work was undertaken using a scanning electron microscope. Differences in the gross appearance of setae can be used to separate species and there are substantial differences in setal structure at the microscopic level. The standard branchial formula for dynomenids is shown to be nineteen gills plus seven epipods. There is little variation in gill numbers but substantial variation in gill shape between species. Although dynomenid gills are often said to be "transitional" they are arranged as in phyllobranchs but with the epibranchial part divided into varying numbers of lobes which gives them a trichobranch-like appearance. Acanthodromia has gills which are almost identical to the phyllobranchs of the Dromiidae but which retain the "dynomenid notch" on each side which, in cross section, give each gill plate a violin shape. The gill cleaning mechanism in dynomenids is complex, being carried out by no less than eight appendages (long setae on the posterior margin of the scaphognatbite and the seven epipods) as well as stiff setae on the posterior hypobranchial wall of the gill chamber. In eubrachyurans only three appendages (maxillipodal epipods) are used. In dynomenids the last pereopod is very reduced (on average less than one-third the length of the fourth pereopod) and carried in a horizontal position alongside the posterolateral carapace margin above the base of the preceding pereopod. They are not, as it has been commonly described, carried subdorsally. Using a scanning electron microscope it was revealed that this limb is sexually dimorphic: in males the dactyl has the normal shape of a tiny claw, but in females the dactyl is a flattened plate, bearing five to sixteen spines which are opposable to an extension of the propodus. In both males and females the propodal extension is armed with spines but in Hirsutodynomene. Metadynomene and Paradynotnene, females have a significantly larger number of spines, which are armed with tiny teeth. Males of three species have an additional small spine on the outer margin of the dactyl. This is a character, previously only known amongst the Dromiidae, which suggests that the last pereopod of dynomenids may have evolved from a camouflagecarrying limb. This limb appears to be vestigial and it is difficult to know what its function may have been amongst the dynomenid ancestors. However its most likely former role appears to be as a cleaning appendage, but certainly not for carrying pieces of camouflage as it is found amongst the dromiids and homolids. All dynomenids, except Acanthodromia, lack an effective abdominal locking mechanism and both sexes have five pairs of pleopods. The female has vestigial, uniramous first pleopods followed by four pairs of normal biramous pleopods, while the male has the normal first two pairs of pleopods as well as three pairs of rudimentary pleopods on segments three to five. These rudimentary pleopods can be uniramous or bifid. In Metadynomene tatiensis 17% of females were gynandromorphs with small male first pleopods but the remaining pleopods were normal. The diet of dynomenids seems to consist of food obtained by sieving fine sediment or perhaps coral mucus. The bunches of sfiff setae on the inner margins of the cheliped fingers and third maxillipeds are probably used to separate fine organic fragments. Most of their gut contents are unidentifiable soft organic material along with small amounts of chopped chitinous fragments perhaps coming from hydroids or other crustaceans. Dynomenids appear to be deposit feeders. Dynomenids have a broadcast reproductive strategy, with indirect development, laying small eggs (mean diameter = 0.49 mm) which probably produce planktonic larvae. Dynomenid larvae have never been reported in plankton samples. Males are on average 19% larger than females which become sexually mature at 5-8 mm CW for small species, or 9-13 mm CW for large species. Egg numbers increase logarithmically with body size. Given the sister group relationship with homolodromiids (which have very abbreviated development) it is implied that dynomenids and dromiids evolved from ancestors which had large eggs and perhaps a brooding strategy. This conclusion is contrary to accepted wisdom, but it is the most parsimonious answer. Some dromiids have retained the brooding strategy but others have independently evolved a broadcast strategy. The evolution of such a strategy in both these families is probably related to their colonization of the shallow water habitat. Both dynomenids and dromiids are mostly crabs of the continental shelf whereas homolodromiids are crabs of the continental slope. Using morphological characters the phylogenetic relafionships of the Dynomenidae are examined. Both the Dynomenidae and the Dromiidae are monophylefic, sharing significant apomorphies. The resemblance of some dynomenids and dromiids is shown to be the result of convergent evolution within these families. The Homolodromiidae are also monophyletic but are defined almost exclusively by plesiomorphies. Monophyly of the Dromiacea de Haan, 1833 is supported by morphological characters with the Dynomenidae and Dromiidae together being the sister group of the Homolodromiidae. The ancestor of these three families was probably a camouflage carrying crab, using both of the last two pairs of pereopods. A controversial aspect of the sister group relationships of the dromiaceans is the need to assume that in dynomenids the fourth pereopod has reverted to a locomotory role and the fifth pereopod became a cleaning limb. Monophyly of the Podotremata Guinot, 1977 is also supported. This analysis suggests that camouflage-carrying behaviour has evolved independently in the Dromiidae (and probably in the Homolodromiidae) and the Homolidae. Dromiids carry pieces of sponges or ascidians as well as shells, using the last two pairs of pereopods, while homolids carry sponges or anemones, using only the last pair of pereopods. The ancestor of the Dromiacea and Archaeobrachyura was probably an inhabitant of deeper waters and not a camouflage carrying crab.

Résumé [+] [-]Pleurochorium annandalei Schrammen, 1912, known previously from the N Indian ocean, is found to be widely distributed in the W Indian ocean as well. Two new subspecies of P. annandalei are described. A finding of a more complete, branching specimen and examination of its spicule content showed that Pleurochorium has much more complex body form then was previously considered. The type of tubular branching observed in this genus may not be attributed to dichotomous or to any of its variations but it should be considered as a regular emission of tubular branches from the side of the wall. Hence the genus should be conserved within Chonelasmatinae. The new data allow supplementation of the diagnosis of this genus and clarify the differences between the subfamilies of Euretidae.

Résumé [+] [-]Three genera of unstalked crinoids, Zenometra, Sarametra and Psathyrometra, formerly included in the subfamily Zenometrinae of the family Antedonidae, are removed and placed in a distinct family, the Zenometridae. Diagnostic features include a cavernous centrodorsal cavity, a complete basal circlet with a large central lumen and cirrus sockets with a concave fulcral bowl around the lumen. Sarametra nicobarica is synonymized under S. triserialis, which is redescribed in detail. Psathyrometra is redefined and includes only the species P. fragilis, P. congesta and P. bigradata, which are redescribed. P. erythrizon is synonymized under P. fragilis. The four other species formerly included in Psathyrometra are removed to Athrypsometra gen. n., retained in the Antedonidae. The other genera formerly included in the Zenometrinae are considered incertae sedis in the family Antedonidae pending detailed re-examination. Cladistic analysis using the antedonids, Poliometra prolixa (a former zenometrine) and Florometra serratissima, and the thalassometrid, Oceanometra annandalei, as outgroups produces the following tree: (O. annandalei ((F. serratissima/P. prolixa)(((P. fragilis/P. congesta) P. bigradata) (S. triserialis/Z. columnaris)))).

Résumé [+] [-]Crustacea Decapoda and Stomatopoda are inventoried for the first time in Juan de Nova Island, Iles Eparses, Mozambique channel. In total, 112 species are reported: 69 crabs, 28 anomurans, 11 shrimps, 3 mantis shrimps and 1 lobster. A comparison is made with nearby islands in the Mozambique channel: Glorieuses Islands (157 species), Europa Island (178 species), and Mayotte Island (505 species). The lower species richness at Juan de Nova is explained by the small size of the island and by the difficulties to collect the crustaceans on the reef flat hardly accessible at low tide. The crustaceans are listed by main habitats from land to outer reef (2e20 m). The presence of the coconut crab (Birgus latro), an endangered species vulnerable to human predation, is confirmed.

Résumé [+] [-]The BENTHEDI 1977 Expedition took place in Mayotte region from March 17 to April 15, 1997, on board the Research Vessel R/V Suroît (SISMER, 2015). Trawls and dredges were operated from 150-3716 m (mean depth prospected 524 m), with a few shallow waters collections between 3-50 m. The Crustacea Decapoda of this cruise are deposited in the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Paris (MNHN). They have been studied later after the cruise and appear sporadically in taxonomic revisions published between 1985 and 2012. A compilation of these results is presented herein with a list à 47 Decapoda extracted on December 2, 2015 from the CRUSTA a database maintained online by Legall & Poupin (2015). Taxonomic classification follows De Grave et al. (2009) and WoRMS (2015).

Résumé [+] [-]Des plongées techniques (TEK) en recycleur et mélanges gazeux spéciaux ont été réalisées autour de l’île de Mayotte sur les pentes externes récifales à des profondeurs comprises entre 50 et 120 m, et plus particulièrement aux alentours de 70-80 m, de 2017 à 2020. L’objectif de ces plongées était de réaliser un premier inventaire faunistique de la zone mésophotique, difficile d’accès et encore mal connue. Ce travail présente les résultats obtenus pour le groupe des Crustacés Décapodes et Stomatopodes avec au total 44 espèces photographiées en haute définition, dont 30 déterminées avec confiance, sept avec doute et sept identifiées provisoirement, peut-être nouvelles pour la nomenclature taxonomique. Les crevettes carides (16 espèces), les anomoures (15 espèces) et les crabes (sept espèces) sont les trois taxons les mieux représentés. Les stomatopodes, crevettes sténopides, langoustines et langoustes comptent chacun deux espèces. Ces observations permettent d’ajouter 32 nouvelles espèces à la faune mahoraise, dont quatre signalements nouveaux pour l’océan Indien. Les espèces sont présentées dans une liste illustrée avec une sélection de photographies. La liste est documentée avec indication des travaux ou guides consultés, des commentaires sur les déterminations et la mise à jour des distributions géographiques et bathymétriques. Pour 15 espèces traditionnellement observées sur des petits fonds (< 50 m), la profondeur maximale est augmentée entre 3 et 45 m. Plus de la moitié des espèces sont des formes libres (26 espèces). Les autres vivent en association avec les coraux ou hydraires (12 espèces), échinodermes (trois espèces), poissons (deux espèces) et éponges (une espèce). Quelques espèces sont à tendance cavernicole, observées dans des grottes ou sous des surplombs. À partir des données d’inventaire des Crustacés Décapodes de l’outre-mer tropical français, 212 espèces sont identifiées comme potentiellement présentes dans la zone mésophotique de Mayotte. Le présent inventaire de 44 espèces est donc assez modeste mais les photographies réalisées in situ permettent de mettre en évidence certaines associations ou modes de vie qui n’étaient pas soupçonnés avec les moyens d’étude classiques. À l’avenir, les observations pourront être améliorées en accordant plus d’importance aux coquilles, parfois occupées par des Bernard l’ermite non déterminés car photographiés de trop loin, et/ou en effectuant des plongées de nuit, lorsque les Crustacés sont plus actifs. La poursuite de ce programme de recherche prévoit la récolte de quelques spécimens, en particulier pour les espèces reconnues comme probablement nouvelles pour la nomenclature taxonomique.

Résumé [+] [-]The present paper deals with 14 species of abyssal Septibranchs, of which 4 species and 1 subspecies are described as new. Two species (Cuspidaria uudala1 Cetocoucha sp. 2) have been trawled at 3825--4035 m, in the W. Madagascar basin, by the oceanographie auise 'Safari MD 20', 1979. T he other species were collected during the 'Benthedi' expedition, 1977, in the North ofMoçambique channel, at 3450-3716 m depth. Amoug these last species, some have ah·eady been recorded from the Atlantic Ocean (Poromya tomata, Cetoconclla transversa, Cuspidaria bamanli, Lyonsiella cf. formosa); orher ones are known only from the lndian Ocean ( Cuspidaria bentlzedii n.sp., Myouera angularis quadrostrala n.ssp., Prolocuspidaria tlzomassini n.sp., Verticordia excoria/a n.sp., Lyonsiella curla n.sp. , Lyonsie/la galatheae); two others have not bccn identified ( Cétoconclza sp.1, Cuspidaria sp.). This work provîdes illustrations for every species and, as mu ch as possible, eonsiders the main anatomical characters of the different species. This is the first Indian Ocean record for genus Protocuspidaria. The type material of the new forms described in this paper îs kept in the Museum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris.

Résumé [+] [-]A small collection of Paguristes Dana, 1851 s.l. from the western Indian Ocean in the Muséum national d’Histoire naturelle, Paris, contains five species of Paguristes s.s., two of Stratiotes Thomson, 1899, and two of Pseudopaguristes McLaughlin, 2002. Except for Paguristes lauriei McLaughlin & Hogarth, 1998, and Stratiotes abbreviatus (Dechancé, 1963) n. comb., five other species, i.e. P. palythophilus Ortmann, 1892, P. puniceus Henderson, 1896, P. antennarius Rahayu, 2006, S. micheleae Rahayu, 2005 and Pseudopaguristes laurentae (Morgan & Forest, 1991) are new for the area, and two, Paguristes petalodactylus n. sp. and Pseudopaguristes araeos n. sp., are new to science. Paguristes petalodactylus n. sp. is characterized by the broad and flattened dactyls of the second and third pereopods and the form of the dactyls of the chelipeds, which are subrectangular and covered with small corneous-tipped spines on each mesial face. Pseudopaguristes araeos n. sp. is characterized by the presence of three irregular rows of spines on the mesial face of each dactyl of the chelipeds and the distal tapering of ocular peduncles.

Résumé [+] [-]Biodiversity and biogeography of Cavoliniidae (Mollusca, Gastropoda, Opisthobranchia, Euthecosomata). Marine faunistic Regions. Several Cavoliniidae new to science are described: Cavolinia gibboides n. sp. (gibbosa group), Diacria gracilis n. sp. (trispinosa group), Creseis conica falciformis n. ssp., Creseis virgula frontieri n. ssp., Cavolinia longicostata n. sp., Cavolinia pachysoma n. sp., Cavolinia labiata robusta n. ssp. (inflexa group), Clio convexa cyphosa n. ssp. (pyramidata group) and Diacria trispinosa heterocolorata n. ssp., the last five collected in recent sediments. Several subspecies take the species level: Cuvierina urceolaris (Mörch, 1905) (synonym Cuvierina columnella urceolaris), Cuvierina columnella (Rang, 1827) (synonym Cuvierina columnella columnella), Cavolinia plana (Meisenheimer, 1905) (synonym Cavolinia gibbosa plana), Cavolinia flava (d’Orbigny, 1836) (synonym Cavolinia gibbosa flava), Cavolinia gibbosa (d’Orbigny, 1836) (synonym Cavolinia gibbosa gibbosa), Cavolinia labiata (d’Orbigny, 1836) (synonym Cavolinia inflexa labiata). Cuvierina columnella forma atlantica is redescribed and renamed Cuvierina spoeli n. sp. At the structural level, the most widespread is the clinal variation, but geographically isolated species are also recorded for example in the Mediterranean, the Red Sea and the Mozambique Channel. The problem of the primary phenotypes is evaluated on the basis of the characters of the recent species and sometimes of their fossil ancestors. The distribution of the different taxa induces to split the Indo-Pacific Cavoliniidae in two entities: the western Indo-Pacific and the eastern Pacific ones, and to point out some faunistic similarities between the Atlantic Ocean and the eastern Pacific Ocean confirming that relations existed between those two oceans until the Pliocene, before the emergence of the Isthmus of Panama. The Mediterranean and the Red seas are appendices of the Atlantic and Indian oceans but they both represent entities characterized by endemic species and Tethysian relicts along with original forms or biological species. Despite their proximity, and the recent artificial connections, the Mediterranean and the Red seas have different faunistic caracteristics: no lessepsian migration has been recorded for Euthecosomata.

Résumé [+] [-]New data on the scaphopod fauna of the Indo-West Pacific are presented, based on new material from recent oceanographic expeditions, mostly in the SW Indian Ocean, SE Asia and the New Caledonia region. Over 780 stations yielded a total of 139 species. Of 81 species of Dentaliida and 58 Gadilida, 42 species (16 Dentaliida and 26 Gadilida), as well as 3 gadilid genera, are described as new. Many range extensions are documented, and new synonymies are established. With 73 recorded species, New Caledonia is currently the geographic area with the highest documented scaphopod diversity. Their bathymetric distribution shows a peak in species numbers in deep water around 800 m, with a second, minor peak for Gadilida at around 2,000 m. Including genera not represented in the Indo-Pacific, 44 Recent scaphopod genera are recognized. The radula of 42 of these is described, and an update of the general classification of the class Scaphopoda is proposed.

Résumé [+] [-]There are 23 species of chitons that live and feed on sunken land plant remains. They belong to three genera Ferreiraella, Leptochiton, and Nierstraszella. In the Carboniferous chitons changed their common food on a cellulose several times independently. Most of the species that live on sunken land plants are distributed along the tropical west and east coasts of the Pacific Ocean and in the Caribbean Sea, which was one of the portions of Pantalassa in the past geological ages. All these species of chitons belong to families that have mostly deep water members with generally plesiomorphic morphology. One can assume that the deep waters off southern Japan, Philippines, Indonesia, New Caledonia, Vanuatu, New Zealand from the western part of Pacific, and off Baja California and the Panama Basin from the eastern Pacific, as well as the Caribbean Sea are all regions where species with primitive character states have accumulated and persisted over geological time. In the future, one would expect a number of other “living fossil” species to be found in these deep water areas of Pantalassa remaining to the present time.

Résumé [+] [-]Rare species of three long-lived lucinid genera, Gibbolucina Cossmann, 1904, Barbierella Chavan, 1938 and Retrolucina n. gen., with origins in the Paleocene and Eocene of western Tethys, are present in the Mozambique Channel area of the southwestern Indian Ocean but absent elsewhere in the Indo-West Pacific. A new species, Gibbolucina zelee n. sp., is described from the Banc de la Zélée and western Madagascar that resembles Miocene species from western France. Since their origin in the Paleocene to the present day Barbierella species have always been rare. New records and images, including syntypes, are provided for Barbierella louisensis (Viader, 1951) from Mauritius and the Mozambique Channel, with Barbierella scitula Oliver & Abou-Zeid, 1986 from the Red Sea regarded as synonym. A new genus, Retrolucina n. gen., is proposed with the living Lucina voorhoevei D eshayes, 1857 (usually called Eomiltha voorhoevei) as type species and also including Lucina defrancei Deshayes, 1857, a strikingly similar species from the Eocene of the Paris Basin. Retrolucina n. gen. differs from Eomiltha Cossmann, 1912 in shape, sculpture and hinge characters. Monitilora Iredale, 1930, another genus of Paleocene or earlier origins, includes a few living species in the Indo-West Pacific and is now identified from Mozambique with Monitilora sepes (Barnard, 1964) (formerly Phacoides sepes Barnard, 1964). It is suggested that Gibbolucina, Barbierella and Retrolucina n. gen. species became isolated in the western Indian Ocean following the closure of the Tethyan Seaway in the early Miocene while their congeners in western Tethys became extinct. The survival of these rare genera, with restricted geographical ranges and seemingly small populations, runs counter to current ideas concerning long-term extinction risk.

Résumé [+] [-]Distribution of the Phoronida in the littoral of coral ree! complexes and terrigeneous soft bottoms of the Mozambique Channel (SW Indian Ocean). The distribution of the Phoronida in three wellstudied regions of the Eastern Mozambique Channel (in Malagasy: southward the Tulear region and northward the Nasy-Be region; and around the Islands of the NE Mozambique ChanneL Mayotte 1., Clorious Is., Geyser and Zelee banks) allows definition of the ecological requirements of the endopsammic species, Phoronis muelleri, P. psammophila, P. pallida, Phoronopsis albomaculata and Ph. californica, and of the commensal one, Phoronis austraUs, living in cerianthid hlbes. Among the endopsammic phoronids there is a succession of species related to sedimentological parameters (grainsize, sand and silt ratios, organic matter) reflecting water movements: Phoronopsis californica in organegeneous gravels and coarse sands, then Phoronopsis albomaculata and Phoronis psammophila in biogenic and terrigeneous medium ta fine sands (the fonner prefering the coarsest sediments), then P. paUida in biogenic well-sorted medium and fine sands, and finally P. muel1eri in terrigeneous muddy sediments, although this species can also occur in biogenic clean medium sands washed by waters with high levels of suspended material, as at Mayotte I.

Vacelet J. 1979. Description et affinités d'une éponge sphinctozoaire actuelle, in Biologie des Spongiaires-Sponge Biology Colloques Internationaux du CNRS: 483-493
Résumé [+] [-]A "living fossil" of the group Sphinctozoa has been discovered in the Indian Ocean and in New Caledonia in a very cryptic habitat of the outer slope of coral reefs. The living tissue is inside a series of hemispherical chambers. The perforated chamber walls are composed of aragonite and consist of a feltwork of microfibrills. In the growing sponge, the skeleton of a new chamber appears first as an organic matrix, which is the template for a later calcification. There are no spicules. The histology, cytology and sexual reproduction are compared to those of the recent Porifera. They are similar ·to those of the Ceractinomorpha in the class Demospongea. This study shows that most fossil Sphinctozoa were relatives of Demosponges. They are cons idered by the author as an order of the class Demospongea. These sponges were devoid of spicules. Thus, the exclusion from the Porifera of some fossil groups as Stromatopores or some Tabulates on the ground of the absence of spicules is not valid. A new order Sphaerocoelida is proposed for cretaceous sponges which have the same structure, but which have calcareous spicules and probably are homeomorphs of the class Calcarea. A comparison is made between the 14 recent sponges which possess a nonspicular calcareous skeleton. The large diversity of both the skeleton and the living tissue of these sponges indicates that their hypercalcification is an archaic character, which was frequent in the past and which disappeared in most of the recent sponges.

Résumé [+] [-]The purpose of the BIOCAL, MUSORSTOM 4 and BIOGEOCAL océanographie cruises was to study the nature and the affinities of the deep-sea fauna of New Caledonia. This area has been until then poorly prospected and its echinoderm fauna is almost unknown. Among the Ophiuridae collected during these two cruises, a first group of 10 species is studied. Five of them are new for science : the subfamilial status of the genus Ophiophyllum Lyman and the affinities of the genera Anihophiura Fasmer and Aspidophiura Matsumoto are discussed. The species belonging to the genera Ophiophycis. Ophiopyrgus, Aspidophiura. Anthophiura. Ophiotypa and Perlophiura. Very small and showing a rudimentary external morphology, are considered as progenetic. These present collects show once more the frequency of these progenetic forms at bathyal and abyssal levels.

Résumé [+] [-]Abstract A phylogenetic study of deep-sea dendrobranchiate genera Altelatipes, Benthesicymus and Benthonectes based on four molecular markers and 91 morphological characters is presented. All currently recognized species of these genera, representatives of all other genera and species groups of Benthesicymidae, and three outgroups were included in the analyses. The molecular and morphological methods retrieved similar results, the molecular methods provided better resolution of deeper nodes and higher clade support. Both types of analyses showed paraphyly of Benthesicymus, which encompass five robust clades, four of which are diagnosed as new genera (type species in parentheses): Benthesicymus s.s. (B. crenatus), Bathicaris gen. nov. (Benthesicymus brasiliensis), Dalicaris gen. nov. (Benthesicymus altus), Trichocaris gen. nov. (Benthesicymus bartletti) and Maorrancaris gen. nov. (Benthesicymus investigatoris). Altelatipes was found to be monophyletic. The evolution of the major clades of Benthesicymidae is shown to be linked to trophic specialization, while further divergence at the genus level is mainly related to sexual evolution seen in the elaboration of the copulatory structures. We provide amended diagnoses of the previously recognized and new genera, key to species of each of these genera and include an updated key to genera of Benthesicymidae.

Vereshchaka A.L., Kulagin D.N. & Lunina A.A. 2021. Across the benthic and pelagic realms: a species‐level phylogeny of Benthesicymidae (Crustacea:Decapoda). Invertebrate Systematics 35(7): 776. DOI:10.1071/IS21004
Résumé [+] [-]Benthesicymidae is a monophyletic group of Decapoda adapted to a life on the sea-floor, in the near-bottom layer, in the bathy- and in the mesopelagic, within an impressive depth range from a few hundred metres (Gennadas) to several thousand metres (Benthesicymus). Higher taxa are known to conquer all main oceanic biotopes such as the benthic, benthopelagic, and pelagic and a wide depth range but few family-level groups have clades evolved within all these oceanic realms. Therefore, the global fauna of Benthesicymidae provides a rare opportunity for an insight into phylogenetic processes favouring colonisation of all principal oceanic biotopes. The first comprehensive phylogenetic study of Benthesicymidae (all 37 valid species) is based on six molecular markers and 105 morphological characters (including 72 female and male copulatory characters). Analyses resulted in trees with similar topology and the same set of robust clades. Molecular methods based on 167 sequences (84 new) provided better resolution of deeper nodes and generally higher support of the clades, while morphological methods allowed analyses of all valid species of the global fauna. Phylogenetic analyses support the monophyly and robustness of all currently known genera except Gennadas, which was split into Gennadas Bate, 1881, Amalopenaeus Smith, 1882, and Notogennema gen. nov. We also retrieved two major clades for which we erected two new subfamilies: Benthesicyminae subfam. nov. (presumably benthic, genera Altelatipes, Bathicaris, Benthesicymus, and Benthonectes) and Gennadinae subfam. nov. (presumably pelagic, genera Amalopenaeus, Bentheogennema, Benthoecetes, Boreogennema, Gennadas, Maorrancaris, and Notogennema gen. nov.). We revealed two groups of morphological characters, that are interlinked evolutionarily: (1) petasma and thelycum; (2) body, mouthparts, and pereopods. Morphological traits within benthic and pelagic clades are different, a model explaining the differences is proposed. Along with previous studies, our results confirm the idea that the elaboration of the copulatory structures is a key to successful colonisation of the pelagic realm. These results extend our knowledge about evolution in the largest habitual biotope of our planet and phylogenetic processes favouring colonisation of all principal oceanic biotopes.

Résumé [+] [-]The classification of Tonnoidea is discussed based on new information about deep-sea species. Representative radular, opercula, and larval shells are described and figured. The conclusions agree mainly with earlier classification, with the following execptions:Oocorythinae is moved from Tonnoidea to Cassidae and its value as a subfamily is questioned. The gross anatomies of two Recent deep-water species of Pisanianura Rovereto, 1889, are described, and a new ranellid subfamily, Pisanianurinae, is described for Pisanianura Rovereto, 1889, formely classified in the Buccinidae. The genera Laminilabrum Kuroda & Habe, 1961, presently in the Trichotropidae, Kaiparanura Laws, 1944, and Nawenia Ladd, 1977, presently in the Buccinidae, are considered synonyms of Pisanianura, which is known in the fossil record since the Oligocene. A new family, Laubierinidae, is erected for Laubierina gen. nov. And Akinumia Kuroda & Habe, 1958 (formerly Trichotropidae) with three Recent deep-water species. Laubierina peregrinator gen. et sp. nov. is described from deep water in the tropical Atlantic and Indian oceans. Two large (5 mm) planktonic larvae belonging to the Laubierinidae are described and one of them is remarkable for being a sexually mature male at the time of settlement. All dissected adults are females and it is speculated that Laubierinidae is a protandrous hermaphrodite with neotenic males. The gross anatomies of L. peregrinator sp. nov. , A. orientalis (Schepman, 1909), and A. shepmani (Habe, 1962) are described. Akibumia reticulata Habe, 1962, is referred to Epitoniidae and Conradia minuta Golikov & Starobogatov, 1986 (described in Fossaridae) is considered a larva of Neptunellinae. Thalassocyon bonus Barnard, 1960, and T. tui Dell, 1967, are synonymized; their anatomies are briefly described and compared with that of Ficus and it is concluded that Thalassosyon has been correctly referred to the Ficidae. Attention is drawn to the fact that the morphology of the ficidae conforms poorly with other Tonnoidae. The value and use of larval shells as taxonomical criteria are discussed, and it is concluded that they are usefull criteria, as long as clear distinction is made betwenn "primary" (i. e., planktotrophic) and "secondary" (i.e., non-planktotrophic) types of larval shells and only "primary" ones are compared.

Résumé [+] [-]The slipper lobster Chelarctus cultrifer (Ortmann, 1897), a putatively wide-spread Indo-West Pacific species, is well-known in Japan. However, recent collections from Taiwan and the Philippines, and comparisons with material from Indonesia and elsewhere revealed that there are actually two species confused under this name. The two species differ markedly in morphology and colour. On the basis of the lectotype designation of C. cultrifer by Holthuis (2002, from Indonesia), the material from Taiwan and Japan is shown to be actually undescribed and is named herein. Chelarctus cultrifer sensu stricto is restricted to the material from the more southern localities in the Philippines westwards to Iles Glorieuses. Genetic comparison of sequences of the barcoding gene, mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit (COI), supported the species separation. The molecular data further suggested that two genetic forms are present within C. cultrifer sensu stricto, and therefore, the subspecific name C. cultrifer meridionalis (Holthuis, 1960) is resurrected.

Its vitreous tube of a very particular shape has been found fossil in the Mediterranean basin. The species which no longer lives in the Mediterranean, may be used as a paleoecological indicator.

Résumé [+] [-]Scléractiniaires d'eau profonde du sud-ouest de l'océan Indien comportant des loges creusées par des crabes, probablement Hapalocarcinidae. Depuis le 19e siècle on connaît des Hapalocarcinidae associés aux coraux récifaux (coraux "hermatypiques"). Ce n'est que récemment qu'on en a trouvé sur des Scléractiniaires dépourvus de Zooxanthelles. Ces coraux ne font pas partie de la faune récifale et vivent dans des eaux comparativement plus profondes (trois espèces ouest africaines, profondeur environ 50-100 m). Des loges typiques de crabes, creusées probablement par des Hapalocarcinidae, viennent d'être découvertes dans des coraux de profondeurs encore plus grandes: sur une espèce du genre solitaire Trochocyathus (Caryophylliidae) du Natal (165 m) et sur une espèce du genre colonial Enallopsammia (Dendrophylliidae) des Comores (475-530 m) et du sud de Madagascar (620-635 m). Dans les deux espèces hôtes les loges sont creusées par un processus chimique dans le squelette et entourées de dépôts ou d'excroissances anormales à la suite d'une reaction du Scléractiniaire contre la pénétration du crabe.

Résumé [+] [-]A large, geographically diverse selection of scleractinian corals, mostly ahermatypes, has been surveyed for galls caused by endoparasites of the ascothoracid family Petrarcidae, which till now have only been known from very few examples. Approximately 30 species of coral in 3 suborders, comprising about 70 distinct populations worldwide (concentrated in the Indo-West Pacific) , from the surface to 5 870 m, bear such galls. Most galls occur within calices (internal galls), but some colonial corals bear galls on their surface independent of calices (external galls); both kinds have a spongy texture that often involves substantial alterations of the host skeleton. Photographs of many infested corals are included. The apparent process of development of both types of gall is described. Parasites themselves were found in about one third of the infested populations and were referable to at least 8 species in 3 genera of Petrarcidae; most of these have been described elsewhere, but a few new records are given here. Preliminary remarks on host-parasite specificity are given.
