The chiton fauna of Hainan Island and its vicinity is poorly known. In this contribution, we present the first comprehensive account living chitons from area. compilation based on study historical collections housed in Qingdao (China), Saint Petersburg (Russia), new samples data literature. Six species (Rhyssoplax venusta, Lucilina lamellosa, L. tenuicostata, tilbrooki, Onithochiton stracki Acanthochitona intermedia) are reported for time Three (Acanthochitona achates, A. britayevi lanae)...
Sixteen deep-sea polyplacophoran species are reported in this article, fifteen of which were found for the first time waters Taiwan. Two these species, Leptochiton taiwanensis n. sp. and L. wui sp., described as new to science. Several distributed near Japan other areas western Pacific Ocean. Eight live feed on sunken wood. A survey polyplacophorans Taiwan has also been conducted. The updated list chitons collected at all depths contains 34 species. Seventeen shallow-water seventeen...
We update the list of bathyal chitons genus Leptochiton inhabiting Chilean waters. report new records belknapi and L. laurae, first record sigwartae for area species ibanezi sp. nov. ferreirai With 12 species, including those described herein as new, highest richness is found in deep Taking into consideration potential late Paleozoic origin Leptochiton, we propose that originated old Pacific Ocean migrated to young Atlantic Ocean. However, has also been considered non-monophyletic.
Twelve species of the polyplacophoran genera Notoplax, Leptoplax, Acanthochitona and Cryptoplax (Chitonida: Acanthochitonina: Cryptoplacoidea) were found in Vietnamese waters for first time. Five them, namely Notoplax conica, Leptoplax doederleini, richardi n. comb., achates A. biformis, are new to fauna. The remaining seven science, namely: odysseyi sp., nhatrangi L. tongkingi condaoi lanae nigra sp. A.ostreaphila comb. was transferred from original genus based on redefinition given herein....
The genus chiton Loricella is revised. It comprises nine species. Two of these species, L. neoguinensis n. sp. and solomonensis sp., are described as new. Based on the analysis morphological features studied using a scanning electron microscope, revised diagnosis provided. characters diagnostic for this that distinguish it from related Squamophora follows: tubular hollow inside dorsal scales, bristles side girdle, wide ventral mouth region, narrow mantle fold covered with simple...
The species composition of the genus Connexochiton is revised. So far, six Recent have been known: C. platynomenus, kaasi, crassus, bromleyi, moreirai and discernibilis After present revision, consists as well three new species, costatus n. sp. from Philippines, kermadeci New Zealand solomonicus Solomon Islands. was assigned to ischnochitonid Stenosemus (now discernibilis). bromleyi are transferred back Ischnochiton. Principle features include: a distinctive shape valves with hind edge...
Eighteen species of the chiton genus Leptochiton are present in Australian and New Zealand waters. beui n. sp. L. marshalli introduced as new to science. laurae cf. opiparus here recorded for first time from The material allowed obtain information about number aesthetes, girdle armature well radula morphology several species. A considerable variability valve shape subantarcticus was observed leading consideration deecresswellae being a junior synonym this Nine eighteen found around nine...
Seventeen chiton species of the genus Leptochiton are reported from Philippine waters. Of these, nine Philippines for first time, including three new to science: costatoacus n. sp., L. longigranum sp. and spiniferus The majority leptochitons live mainly in bathyal zone or deeper.
Based on data from the Weddell Sea in Atlantic sector of Southern Ocean, total number macrozoobenthic species was estimated for entire Antarctic shelf using species-accumulation methods, jack-knife estimators, and Incidence-based Coverage Estimators richness. Ranging between 11 000 17 expected species, Antarctica seems to have an intermediate richness when compared other selected tropical, temperate or Arctic habitats.
AbstractAn evaluation of all species the genus Hanleya showed that they only inhabit Atlantic Ocean, occurring from off Brazil (25°44′S) to Barents Sea (74°27′N). The majority records refer H. nagelfar which ranges 9°03′8′′N 74°27′N in coastal waters North America, Europe and Africa. There are six Recent Hanleya: tropicalis Dall, 1881, brachyplax Jardim Simone, 2010b, harasewychi sp. nov, mediterranea hanleyi (Bean Thorpe, 1844) (Lovén, 1846). phylogenetic relationship has long been...
A new shallow-water species Lepidochitona cubensis sp. nov. collected in the Caribbean Sea off Cuba sea grass Thalassia testudinum is described. This chiton closest to L. bullocki with which it forms a separate group within genus, differing from other of genus by presence small square grooves on tegmentum valves.
