This book was released on with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the present contribution by Modest Guţu, the family Leptocheliidae enriched with 29 new taxa (a subfamily, seven genera and 21 species), as it results from the list, hereinafter. Subfamily Leptocheliinae Lang, 1973: - Genus Alloleptochelia n. g., with the species: A. angusta n. sp., A. heardi n. sp., A. insolita n. sp., A. monotricha n. sp. and A. multiarticulata n. sp.; - Genus Chondrochelia n. g., with the species: C. andersoni n. sp., C. baliensis n. sp., C. dentitruncata n. sp. and C. distincta n. sp.; - Genus Kalloleptochelia n. g., with the species: K. maiorina n. sp., K. pauxilla n. sp. and K. robusta n. sp.; - Genus Leptochelia Dana, 1849, with the species: L. afrieurina n. sp. and L. splendida n. sp.; - Genus Paraleptochelia n. g., with the species P. magnispina n. sp.; - Genus Permixtimella n. g., with the species P. oculifurcillata n. sp.; - Genus Poorea Edgar, 2012, with the species P. obscurus; n. sp. and P. tanzaniensis n. sp. Subfamily Konariinae Bamber, 2013: - Genus Antiparus n. g. with the species A. longisetosus n. sp. Subfamily Metaleptocheliinae nov.: - Genus Metaleptochelia n. g. with the species M. estafricana n. sp. and M. vestpacifica n. sp. Also, the female of the species Leptochelia forresti (Stebbing, 1896), unknown up to now, is described and illustrated for the first time, and the male is minutely redescribed. It is for the first time when a large number of taxa (six genera and 12 species) of the family Leptocheliidae are minutely described on the basis of both sexes, this allowing the establishing of the common morphological features in the males and females of the same species, as well of those present at the genus level. The males of the genus Antiparus n. g. and of the species Antiparus longisetosus n. sp., Poorea obscurus n. sp. and P. tanzaniensis n. sp. and the females of the genus Kalloleptochelia n. g. and of the species Alloleptochelia insolita n. sp., A. multiarticulata n. sp., Kalloleptochelia maiorina n. sp., K. pauxilla n. sp., K. robusta n. sp. and Leptochelia afrieurina n. sp. are unknown. The identification keys of the leptocheliid subfamilies are presented, for the genera of the subfamilies Leptocheliinae and Konariinae, as well as the identification keys of the species of the genera Leptochelia, Alloleptochelia n. g., Kalloleptochelia n. g., Makassaritanais Guţu, 2012, Metaleptochelia n. g. and Poorea Edgar, 2012, and of the new species of the genus Chondrochelia n. g. Considering that the females and males of the species of the family Leptocheliidae have different morphological features, the key of the genera of the subfamily Leptocheliinae (the most numerous within the family, having 20 genera) refers both to the common features of the two sexes (when it was possible) and separately, for females and males allowing a more precise identification. The studied material provided from the Indo-West-Pacific shallow waters. The comments from the Addendum refer to the recent English version of the chapter Order Tanaidacea (revised and updated by Kim Larsen after the original text co-authored by Modest Guţu and the late Jürgen Sieg), from the well-known Traité de Zoologie (Tome VII, Fascicule III A, Crustacés Pracarides), founded by P.-P. Grassé. That new version contains numerous unacceptable mistakes since the author was not consulted or at least informed about the re-publication, as it would have been ethically appropriate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with a large number of deep-sea taxa of Tanaidacea from the Gulf of Mexico, primarily collected during the Deep Gulf of Mexico Benthos Study and the North Gulf of Mexico Continental Shelf Study. Four new genera, Aramaturatanais, Caudalonga, Insociabilitanais, and Pseudoarthrura are described. Twenty-one new species belonging to those new genera and to Anarthruropsis, Araphura, Araphuroides, Chauliopleona, Filitanais, Leptognathia, Leptognathiella, Leviapseudes, Meromonakantha, Paragathotanais, Paranarthrura, Robustochelia, and Stenotanais are described as well, in many cases by both sexes. The female of Paragathotanais typicus and the male Pectinapseudes magnus are described herein for the first time. The genus Crurispina is renamed Spinitanaopsis as its original name was found to be preoccupied. Keys are presented for the genera Atlantapseudes, Pectinapseudes, Sphyrapoides, Kudinopasternakia, Paragathotanais, Paranarthrura, Anarthruropsis, Filitanais, Leptognathiella, Mesotanais, Araphura, Araphuroides, Robustochelia, and Stenotanais. Information about distribution and bathymetric range is included. Also, global distribution patterns and dispersal mechanisms applying to the Tanaidacea are discussed. Most deep-sea species appear to be widely distributed and show remarkably wide depth ranges. Misidentification is suggested as the cause of many of those apparently widely distributed tanaidaceans. Wide bathymetric ranges have been recorded for many species, and their apparent pressure tolerance may contribute to facilitating dispersal. The known distribution patterns in the Gulf of Mexico seem merely to reflect sampling effort. In addition to the specific parts, this text gives a review of tanaidacean morphology, anatomy, physiology, ecology, development, reproduction, behaviour, and of other aspects of their biology.

Download or read book Systematic Revision of the Family Kalliapseudidae Crustacea written by David T. Drumm and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kalliapseudidae is a family of shallow burrow-dwelling and fossorial marine and estuarine tanaidaceans. There are currently 39 known species in 12 genera and three subfamilies. They are distributed throughout the world's tropical, subtropical, and temperate coastal waters and, with a few known exceptions, are restricted to depths of less than 200 m. The phylogeny of Kalliapseudidae is assessed to test the monophyly of currently accepted subfamilies and genera, based largely on examination of material loaned from various museums and institutions. Multiple exemplars from other apseudomorph families were also included in the ingroup to test the monophyly of the family. Parsimony analyses included 41 terminal taxa and 64 binary and multistate morphological characters. Analyses based on successive weighting resulted in 20 most parsimonious trees. The strict consensus tree of these most parsimonious trees supported Kalliapseudidae, Kalliapseudinae, Tanapseudes, Cristapseudes, and Mesokalliapseudes as monophyletic. The genus Kalliapseudes could not be resolved, but constraining it to be monophyletic resulted in a significantly worse tree. The subfamilies Hemikalliapseudinae and Tanapseudinae were recovered as polyphyletic and paraphyletic, respectively, but without support. Constraining them to be monophyletic did not result in a significantly worse tree. Results indicated high levels of homoplasy in three morphological characteristics traditionally used to differentiate groups. Alokalliapseudes macsweenyi is transferred back to the genus Mesokalliapseudes, rendering Alokalliapseudes a junior subjective synonym. Nine new taxa, including six species of Kalliapseudes and one species of the genus Cristapseudes, and one new genus (Phoxokalliapseudes) and species (P. singaporensis) were discovered and described. Two species of Kalliapseudes (K. gobinae and K. multiarticulus) are transferred to Phoxokalliapseudes n. gen. Neotypes are designated for K. magnus, C. omercooperi and M. schubarti, and a lectotype is designated for K. mauritanicus. Distribution maps, illustrated keys to the subfamilies, genera and species, and preliminary remarks on biogeographic history are also presented.

Download or read book Treatise on Zoology Anatomy Taxonomy Biology The Crustacea Volume 5 written by Carel von Vaupel Klein and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-03-20 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fifth volume of The Crustacea contains chapters on: ● Devoting a chapter to Pentastomida ● Class Eupentastomida ● Orders Bochusacea, Mictacea, and Spelaeogriphacea ● Order Amphipoda ● Order Tanaidacea For those working on Arthropoda, it will be obvious that the chapters on Pentastomida are newly conceived. The other chapters in this book constitute updated translations of contributions in the French edition of the Traité, volume 7(III)(A), while the order Bochusacea, not featuring in the French version as only more recently described, has been added in a combined treatment with the two closely similar orders. Overall, this constitutes the eighth tome published in this English series, viz., preceded by volumes 1 (2004), 2 (2006), 9A (2010), 9B (2012), 3 (2012), 4A (2013), and 4B (2014). From vol. 4A onward the chapters are no longer published in the serial sequence as originally envisaged, because the various contributions, both the updates and the entirely new chapters, become available in a more or less random order. Yet, when completing this series, all major issues as well as all taxa currently recognized will have been treated.

This book was released on 1986 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Antarctic Research Series, Volume 45. About 2700 tanaidaceans from 131 stations collected by scientists on board the R/V Hero at Tierra del Fuego, Isla de los Estados, and along the west coast of the Antarctic Peninsula were studied. A total of 36 species representing 26 genera in 11 families were determined. Of these taxa, four genera, one subgenus, and 12 species are described as new to science. Of the remaining 24 species, only nine were known previously from the area studied. Range extensions are reported for 14 species, only one of which is listed for the Antarctic/Subantarctic region for the first time.

Download or read book Species Diversity of Animals in Japan written by Masaharu Motokawa and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-11-26 with total page 718 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes the status quo of the knowledge about the biodiversity in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine animals that live in Japan. Consisting of some 6,800 islands that are arrayed for approximately 3,500 km from north to south, the Japanese archipelago has a complex history in a paleogeographic formation process over time and harbors rich flora and fauna. This work will contribute to establishing a general biogeographic theory in archipelagoes around continental shelves. Facing the ongoing extinction crisis, one of the most important tasks for our generation is to bequeath this precious natural heritage to future generations. As the first step toward this goal, a species list has been compiled through solid, steady alpha-taxonomic work in each taxon. Furthermore, the phylogeography and population genetic structure for each species is elucidated for deeper understanding of the local fauna, the scientific results of which should be the basis for establishing conservation policies and strategies. Also the problem of alien or introduced species is investigated as another threat to the native fauna.Each of the 27 chapters is written by the most active specialist leading the field, thus readers can acquire up-to-date knowledge of the animal species diversity and their formation process of Japanese animals in the most comprehensive form available. This book is recommended for researchers and students who are interested in species diversity, biogeography, and phylogeography.
