This species is classiﬁed in the genus Carybdea due to the possession of a typical heart-shaped rhopaliar niche ostia with only one upper scale and epaulette-shaped gastric phacellae in the four corners of the stomach. This new species can be distinguished from other valid members of the genus Carybdea by the combination of the structure of the two velarial canal roots per octant with one broadly bi-forked velarial canal with narrow, lateral lobations on each root, and other morphological characters such as having typical knee-shaped pedalial canal bends without any appendages, and epaulette-shaped gastric phacellae with single-rooted, brush-shaped, multiple (three to ﬁve) short-stemmed, dendritically branched (both short and long branches) gastric ﬁlaments. This is the ﬁrst novel cubomedusa described from Sri Lankan waters; and the ﬁrst Carybdea species described with material from the North Indian Ocean.","PeriodicalId":56054,"journal":{"name":"Plankton & Benthos Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44538292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ctenophore is distinctive; having two prominent tentacle arms, a body that is rectangular when observed laterally along the tentacular plane, and rounded when observed laterally along the stomodeal plane. The tentacle arms each give rise to an extensible tentacle bearing short tentilla of uniform length and distribution. One ctenophore appeared to be anchored to the seafloor by its two long flexible tentacles, as well as by two filaments exiting its oral end. The overall form of the ctenophore suggests classification within the problematic, non-monophyletic order Cydippida, but the robust tentacle arms are more reminiscent of benthic species of Platyctenida, particularly those of families Lyroctenidae and Ctenoplanidae. Whereas most platyctenid ctenophores do not possess ctene rows in their adult forms, features that are possessed by the new species described herein, species of Ctenoplanidae retain comb rows as adults and are capable of limited swimming. The species described herein is easily distinguishable from all other known species of Ctenophora and may trace its origin to a lineage diverging near the origin of Platyctenida.","PeriodicalId":56054,"journal":{"name":"Plankton & Benthos Research","volume":"15 1","pages":"296-305"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47962120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ecological characteristics of these species, including habitat and behavior during the adult stage, have been investigated. However, the larval stage remains poorly understood because it is difficult to identify larvae morphologically. Our study objectives are to clarify the settlement patterns involved in recruitment of the two species of megalopae using genetic analysis and the effects of ecological factors on settlement, including 1) seasonal changes, 2) spatial variations (dominated by conspecific or heterospecific adults), and 3) tidal effects. The Chiromantes megalopae were collected in the lower reach of the Sai River during spring and neap tides from August to November 2017. Megalopa larvae were collected from three areas: one dominated by C. haematocheir adults, one dominated by C. dehaani adults, and a revetment area. Both species of megalopae showed seasonal and spatial variations in settlement, which also differed with tidal fluctuations. Chiromantes dehaani megalopae settled from midAugust to early October and C. haematocheir megalopae settled from early September to early November. Chiromantes haematocheir megalopae preferentially settled in the area dominated by conspecific adults over the area dominated by C. dehaani and the revetment area, while no difference in the settlement of C. dehaani megalopae was observed among areas. Chiromantes haematocheir megalopae returned on the spring tide; however, C. dehaani megalopae showed no tidal pattern.","PeriodicalId":56054,"journal":{"name":"Plankton & Benthos Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-11-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42105226","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In such areas, sea pens can form habitats with high population densi ties known as “ sea pen ﬁelds ” . However, the presence and importance of sea pen ﬁelds have not been well studied in shallow waters in East Asia. Here, we report a sea pen ﬁeld of Virgularia sp. aﬀ. gustaviana in the shallow waters of Ushibuka Marine Park, in the Amakusa Islands of southern Japan. The average colony numbers of the ﬁeld across all depths (7–20 m) was 10.3 colonies/m 2 (live colonies) to 13.6 colonies/m 2 (all: live + dead colonies + holes), and the area of the sea pen ﬁeld was at least ∼ 50,000 m 2 . At a depth of 15 m, the substratum consisted of sand and fallen leaves of terrestrial origin, and the highest sea pen density was observed (averages = 17.2 live colonies/m 2 , = 25.8 total (live + dead + holes) colonies/m 2 ). At a depth of 20 m, the substratum consisted of broken shells and rocks and had the lowest density (live colonies: average = 0.8 colonies/m 2 , all: average = 1.0 colonies/m 2 ). There were signiﬁcant diﬀer ences in colony number of Virgularia sp. aﬀ. gustaviana between the “ sand ” , “ sand + leaves ” , and “ broken shells/rocks ” substrates. We hypothesize that the strength of the water currents caused by local geographic features and tidal move ments produce suitable sedimentation and habitat for this species of sea pen. Therefore, we suggest that preserving the natural coastline is crucial to protect this and other sea pen ﬁelds in shallow waters and their benthic marine communi ties.","PeriodicalId":56054,"journal":{"name":"Plankton & Benthos Research","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41509312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The mud shrimp Upogebia is known to coexist with the myid bivalve Cryptomya in a burrow produced by the shrimp. Both species are ﬁlter-feeders, and thus interspeciﬁc competition or trophic niche segregation may occur in the burrow. Samples for carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analysis were collected from a tidal ﬂat near the tidal inlet of Akkeshi Lake, Hokkaido, northern Japan in April 2013. In addition, stratiﬁed benthos sampling was conducted on the tidal ﬂat in August 2018, to clarify the interspeciﬁc relationship between U. major and C. busoensis in the burrow. The stratiﬁed benthos sampling showed the vertical distribution of these species, and indicated that both species ﬁlter water from the same part of the burrow for feeding. The stable carbon and nitrogen isotope analysis showed that important food sources for both U. major and C. busoensis are marine phytoplankton and microphytobenthos. In addition, C. busoensis is likely to consume terrestrial organic matter whereas U. major is unable to utilize it. The partial trophic segregation between the species increases the potential benthic ﬁltering because it allows the Upogebia burrow complex to con sume a wide variety of organic matter, and it might reduce interspeciﬁc competition between the ﬁlter-feeding host and its commensal species. These results demonstrate how ecologically similar macrobenthos can coexist in a burrow.","PeriodicalId":56054,"journal":{"name":"Plankton & Benthos Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45657429","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The behavior involves one hermit crab pulling another crab ʼ s shell towards itself causing the shells to hit against each other. This is the ﬁrst evidence that males perform inverse rapping as a mating behavior in a Pagurus species. Two experi-ments were conducted to describe the inverse rapping in detail and to discuss its function. In Experiment A, we clariﬁed when (mating season or non-mating season) and to whom (males or females) males displayed this behavior. A focal male that had not been guarding in the ﬁeld was placed together with another crab and their interaction was observed, especially inverse rapping. Males showed inverse rapping mainly with a female that was close to copulation in the mating season, especially when the male guarded the female. In Experiment B, we examined the female ʼ s response to male inverse rapping and tested the eﬀect of the presence of a neighboring conspeciﬁc on the occurrence of the behavior. Most females reduced struggling and/or withdrew into their shells in response to male inverse rapping. The presence of neighboring crabs did not aﬀect inverse rapping. Our ﬁndings suggest that inverse rapping is a mating behavior in P. nigrofascia , and that inverse rapping may beneﬁt males in the initiation and/or continuation of precopulatory guarding because it can help to restrain struggling females. This behavior has not been observed in other sympatric Pagurus species and appears to be a characteristic mating behavior of P. nigrofascia .","PeriodicalId":56054,"journal":{"name":"Plankton & Benthos Research","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2020-08-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48665659","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
