A new species, Oikopleura villafrancae, from the family Oikopleuridae (Lohmann 1915), subfamily Oikopleurinae (Lohmann 1896), genus Oikopleura (Mertens 1830), is described from numerous specimens collected at mesopelagic depth (360–880 m) during two different cruises: Migragel II (May 1988) and Medapp (May 1990) in the Ligurian Sea (northwest Mediterranean) between Villefranche-sur-Mer (French Riviera) and Corsica, respectively by the ‘Cyana’ and ‘Johnson-Sea-Link’ manned submersibles.

Abstract:

A new genus, Mesoikopleura, in the family Oikopleuridae (Lohmann, 1915), is described from several specimens collected at low mesopelagic depth (710–860 m) during different cruises using the ‘Johnson-Sea-Link’ submersibles, and from one collected by the ‘Cyana’ submersible during the ‘Gyrocean’ cruise. Three species of this new genus are described: M. enterospira, M. youngbluthi and M. gyroceanis. One of the species already described as belonging to the genus Pelagopleura is moved to the genus Mesoikopleura. Consideration of the genera closely related to Mesoikopleura leads to the division of the subfamily Oikopleurinae into two groups at the level of super genera: Labiata and Alabiata.

Abstract:

An appendicularian belonging to the family Oikopleuridae, subfamily Bathochordaeinae, Mesochordaeus bahamasi gen. nov., sp. nov., is described from a single specimen collected at mesopelagic depth in Bahamian waters. As the subfamily was founded with only one genus (Bathochordaeus), new descriptions are given for the subfamily and the two genera.

Abstract:

Background: Ascidians, a tunicate class, use a mitochondrial genetic code that is distinct from vertebrates and other invertebrates. Though it has been used to translate the coding sequences from other tunicate species on a case-by-case basis, it is has not been investigated whether this can be done systematically. This is an important because a) some tunicate mitochondrial sequences are currently translated with the invertebrate code by repositories such as NCBI GenBank, and b) uncertainties about the genetic code to use can complicate or introduce errors in phylogenetic studies based on translated mitochondrial protein sequences. Methods: We collected publicly available nucleotide sequences for non-ascidian tunicates including appendicularians such as Oikopleura dioica, translated them using the ascidian mitochondrial code, and built multiple sequence alignments covering all tunicate classes. Results: All tunicates studied here appear to translate AGR codons to glycine instead of serine (invertebrates) or as a stop codon (vertebrates), as initially described in ascidians. Among Oikopleuridae, we suggest further possible changes in the use of the ATA (Ile → Met) and TGA (Trp → Arg) codons. Conclusions: We recommend using the ascidian mitochondrial code in automatic translation pipelines of mitochondrial sequences for all tunicates. Further investigation is required for additional species-specific differences.

Abstract:

The summer vertical distribution of appendicularian species was analysed at 22 stations in the central Cantabrian Sea by means of vertical tows covering the surface, thermocline and deep layers. According to their preference for shallower waters, the appendicularian species could be arranged on the series Oikopleura longicauda (Vogt), Oikopleura fusiformis (Fol), Fritillaria pellucida (Quoy & Gaimard) and Oikopleura rufescens (Fol), with Oikopleura dioica (Miiller) in an uncertain position, probably closer to the end of this series. Principal components and correlation analyses suggest that a temperature gradient causes this pattern, which agrees with previous findings made at very different temporal and spatial scales. By means of particle-size spectra, it is shown that those oikopleurids that prefer cold, deep waters, O. fusiformis and O. rufescens, co-vary with a coefficient of particle-size quality. The lower the temperature, the lower the proportion of small, ingestible particles to large inlet-filter-clogging particles. This is proposed as an important reason for the presence of inlet filters in oikopleurids.

Abstract:

Monthly sampling during daytime was carried out in 2007-2011 at Bandar Al-Khyran (23.51oN, 58.72oE) which is the largest semi-enclosed bay on the southern end of the Sea of Oman with about 4 km2 in surface area and an average depth of 10 m. Zooplankton were represented by Copepoda (79%), Cladocera (9%), Oikopleuriddae (7%), Chaetognatha (3%), and Decapoda (~2%) comprising the major part of the total zooplankton abundance. Among copepods, 27 species constituted ~75% of total copepod abundance. Changes of copepod abundance have not had a pronounced seasonal pattern. Instead, a multiple peak structure in monthly fluctuations was observed, on the level of genera as well as the abundance of species. Amplitudes and timing of the copepod peak abundance were markedly different during the studied years.

Abstract:

Significance of larvaceans (class Appendicularia) for plankton community and feeding of nekton in the Far-Eastern Seas and North Pacific is underestimated, this group of species is poorly represented in scientific literature. The total biomass of larvaceans is below the stocks of dominant groups in the large-sized zooplankton, as copepods, euphausiids, arrowworms, amphipods, and coelenterates, but accounted together with their shells (called «houses») they form a comparable stock. In the studied area, the class Appendicularia is represented by four species: widely distributed Oikopleura vanhoeffeni, O. labradoriensis, and Fritillaria borealis and F. sp. (perhaps F. pacifica) in the southern periphery of this area. Larger and more numerous oikopleurids dominate by both abundance and biomass and are presented in all size fractions of zooplankton, whereas fritillarids are presented mostly in the small-sized fraction. Larvaceans distribute mainly in the upper epipelagic layer (55–97 %), i.e. in the layer of their prey concentration; their density is the highest in the coastal zone with the depth < 50 m and decreases in deeper areas. They are a significant portion in the diet of many nekton species (41 out of 151 species in the Trofology database of TINRO), including basic commercial fishes, as pollock, salmons, herring, polar cod, mackerels, sardine and some others. Their mucus houses glowing at night, with the animal inside, whose tail vibrates constantly providing movement and nutrition, are attractive for many plankton-eaters. Appendicularia have a high occurrence in the food of all size-classes of nekton, though it decreases for larger-sized fish of such mass fish species, as walleye pollock and pink and chum salmons.

Abstract:

Coral reef mutualisms involve complex trophic ecological relationships that produce indirect effects. Excluding mutualistic cleaner fish Labroides dimidiatus from reefs indirectly increases the abundance of many fishes and reduces demersal stages of their ectoparasitic prey (gnathiid isopods). Whether cleaners affect populations of planktivorous fishes that consume demersal zooplankton, and consequently indirectly affect the rest of the demersal zooplankton community — via presumed changes in planktivory — is unknown. Therefore, using a long-term cleaner fish manipulation on patch reefs (July 2000 to December 2012, Great Barrier Reef), we tested whether cleaner treatment (removal or control) affects planktivorous fish abundance and diversity, and demersal zooplankton biomass, abundance, and diversity. Fish surveys, 9 and 12 years after removing cleaners revealed fewer fish on removal compared to control reefs for one of the three most abundant planktivores, but not total abundance (Pomacentridae, 26 species), diversity, and composition. Emerging zooplankton were sampled during the day and night over nine sampling trips across 12 years. There was no effect of cleaner treatment on post-removal values, compared with pre-removal values in July 2000, for zooplankton biomass, abundance, diversity, and composition (34 taxa). Zooplankton abundance showed no diel differences, but diversity, and occasionally biomass, were higher at night. Zooplankton composition also showed diel differences, with three taxa contributing the most to this dissimilarity [Cirripeda nauplii, Facetotecta (Arthopoda), Oikopleuridae (Chordata)]. Zooplankton diversity did not differ among times, abundance was higher in January 2002 relative to July 2000, and composition differed among all times. The lack of detectable indirect effects of cleaner fish presence on zooplankton (non-gnathiid) may partly be due to cleaners’ variable effect on planktivorous fish abundance, but also the result of invertebrate planktivory and other processes that affect zooplankton populations not investigated here. Nevertheless, the pronounced diel and temporal changes in zooplankton observed likely influence coral reef trophic interactions.
