Marine amphipods are crustaceans that lack a larval phase and consequently have low dispersion rates. Despite that, these present remarkable ability to be transported by rafting on natural floating substrata, especially macroalgae, where they find shelter, food mating ground. The species Ampithoe marcuzzii is widely distributed throughout the western Atlantic Ocean. Here, it was used as model study seascape genomics phylogeography in invertebrates with capacities. We anticipated lineages...
This catalog documents 303 species within 142 genera and 56 families distributed in the suborders Amphilochidea, Senticaudata order Ingolfiellida that have been described or reported for Brazilian coast continent. Data these such as type material, locality, geographic bathymetric distribution, ecological notes remarks, when pertinent, was given. From these, 268 (~ 90%) are benthonic, marine and/or estuarine occurring from a diverse of substrates sediment, algae, sponges, cnidarians,...
Abstract Increasing habitat modification and species loss demand consistent efforts to describe understand biodiversity patterns. The BIOTA/FAPESP Program was created in this context it has been a successful initiative promote studies on conservation Brazil. BIOTA/Araçá is an interdisciplinary project that provided detailed evaluation of the Araçá Bay, coastal seascape located North coast state São Paulo, Southeast bay encompasses multiple habitats, such as beaches, mangroves, rocky shores,...
ABSTRACT This study aimed to assess population and reproductive aspects of the ampithoid amphipod Cymadusa filosa Savigny, 1816 in a region with pollution by petrogenic hydrocarbons. Sampling Sargassum furcatum Kützing, 1843 fronds associated fauna was conducted March, September December 2007 February 2008, on four rocky shores located São Sebastião Island, southeastern Brazil. A total 1372 specimens C. were recorded, including 934 juveniles, 274 females (60 ovigerous) 164 males. Population...
The spatial distribution of fauna associated to marine macroalgae has mostly been investigated considering a horizontal plane. However, the macroalgal substrates can present three-dimensional structure. In this sense, investigating how varies throughout vertical plane contribute understanding these organisms. brown macroalga Sargassumpresents stratification along its thallus and harbors an amphipod with variety feeding habits. work, we tested if assemblage different portions Sargassum...
Abstract Macroalgae constitute an important habitat for several marine invertebrates, and their biomass structural complexity modulates the abundance diversity of species that live on them. Overall, fluctuations in algae inflict associated mobile macrofauna, but structure community may vary according to how each group/species uses resources provided by algal habitat. Here, we evaluated temporal variations Sargassum bed (increase, decrease, or maintenance) can affect abundance, density,...
Oceanic islands are known by their unique evolutionary histories and high endemicity caused isolation. This is the first survey on biodiversity of Peracarida from Trindade Island, a volcanic island located about 1,160 km off Brazilian coast, with reports Tanaidacea description Synapseudes isis sp. nov. three new species Amphipoda ( Ampithoe thaix , Elasmopus gabrieli Eusiroides lucai ). The results phylogenetic analysis based morphological characters its biogeography through Bayesian Binary...
Sessile communities provide habitat for feeding, reproduction and protection to a diverse mobile fauna. Along succession, the growth overgrowth of three-dimensional sessile organisms generate structural complexity microhabitats organisms. Most studies focus on one species or group fauna as provider, but here we investigated whole community, using fouling model. We tested hypothesis that they would gain along resulting in an increase abundance biomass, compositional changes associated groups....
The genus Pseudaeginella is analysed herein by cladistic methods based on a morphological data matrix of 49 characters × 18 terminal taxa. Based the results, we comment phylogenetic position Paradeutella within Pseudaeginella, and propose multispinosa comb. nov. tanzaniensis freirei sp. described from Abrolhos Bank, north-eastern Brazil. We provide an updated key to species.http://www.zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:F573E845-822E-41D6-8F58-FE54C5653A53
Abstract The crustacean family Ampithoidae is one of the most abundant invertebrate families associated with macroalgae in shallow marine waters. Ampithoe , largest genus, was previously documented as non‐monophyletic by phylogenetic analyses based on morphological and molecular characters. Here, we reconstructed a multi‐gene phylogeny first data southwestern Atlantic Ocean. We performed biogeographic for family, which indicated its origin Indo‐West Pacific, subsequent dispersion to Ocean...
A new species of Hourstonius is described from the northern coast São Paulo State. wakabarae sp. nov. distinguished other genus by morphology and size accessory flagellum antenna 1, articles antennae 1 2, mandibular molar, telson. The H. lives associated with macroalgae growing on rocky shores, especially brown alga Sargassum, at depths up to 2-3 m. This first recorded Brazilian waters.
A new species of lysianassid amphipod belonging to the genus Cheirimedon was collected on continental slope Campos Basin, largest oil reserve in Brazilian waters. This is first record from Atlantic Ocean, which previously restricted Antarctic and Tasmanian sea. The fully illustrated compared with related species. Additionally, a world key provided.

Obligate commensalism in the marine environment and its evolutionary role are still poorly understood. Although sea turtles may serve as ideal substrates for epibionts, within amphipods, only genus
