I would like to find out if the harvesting of Marphysa sanguinea in local bays is sustainable. I would appreciate receiving general information on the life history and ecology of this species. Some of the questions I am seeking answers for are: What is the longevity of Marphysa sanguinea? How old it is when it first breeds and how many years does it breed for? How long do the larvae stay in the water column before settling to the sea bed and how widely dispersed can they be before settling to the bottom. I wish to know whether transplanting of this species from nearby areas has been tried to repopulate a shore? I have a photograph of the species here: http://www.smugmug.com/gallery/2074700_Fqi4W/1/107636133_pJKtM#107636133_pJKtM Large numbers of individuals are dug up in our local bays: http://www.sealordphotography.net/gallery/3514797_L9f6K#113230983_fMYSP Our specimens grow to a length of about 60 cm: http://www.sealordphotography.net/gallery/3514797_L9f6K#113230350_txHH2 I have searched the Internet and found a few abstracts but I do not have a local library available to provide me with any journals.

Daniela Prevedelli, Gloria Massamba N'Siala, Ivano Ansaloni & Roberto Simonini Dipartimento di Biologia Animale, Universit? degli studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia, Modena, Italy Correspondence to Daniela Prevedelli: prevedelli.daniela@unimore.it Abstract The life cycle of a brackish water population of Marphysa sanguinea (Polychaeta Eunicidae), from the Venice Lagoon (Italy), was investigated from April 1993 to August 1994. Marphysa sanguinea is a large-sized gonochoric species with annual iteroparous strategy and synchronous spawning at population level. The sex-ratio was close to 1:1. There were no morphological differences between males and females and spawning occurred without epitokal metamorphosis. The gonadial activity was maximum during summer period in both sexes. From May to September in the females, the greater number of immature oocytes could be observed; starting from November immature oocytes decreased and progressively those with a wider diameter increased in number. Spawning took place in April?May and generally not all eggs were spawned, a small proportion being kept as a reserve material for the following gamete production. The pelagic phase (trochophore and metatrochophore stages) was short (2?3 days). The reduction in the dispersal phase, together with the development of a strong anterior musculature, brought to an early acquisition of the benthic habit, which was attained with the construction of the mucous tube inside of which the larva lived. The results highlighted that colonization of brackish environments took place thanks to morphological and physiological features that allow this species to live in a sediment layer characterized by the stability of the physical and chemical characteristics of the substratum.

We think that on the ultrastructural level of uncini there may be some as yet unexplored possibilities. We are not aiming at a full scale revision, that would be a topic for a PhD at least, but just hoping to get a better idea of the origin of material collected in the Suez Canal, since we are writing a monograph on the serpulids from the SC. Right now we dearly would like to have a better idea of the structure of the uncini in the Indo-West Pacific Protula palliata. The type material is not present in the National Museum, Colombo, Sri Lanka, and dr. Pillai could not find it either when he still was working in Sri Lanka. Topotypical material obviously would be the next best option, but unfortunately the Nat. Mus. Colombo has no Protula at all. Does anyone have access to Protula material (not being the large spirally branchied P. bispiralis) from Sri Lanka or as close as possible to that locality but within the northern part of the Indian Ocean? I do have material from the Seychelles, but that is not close enough. I would appreciate receiving some specimens on loan (or as a gift) for a careful removal of a few tori for SEM (of course the stubs would be returned with the material in case of loan). wormly, dr.

Such as the 'Pogonophora' groups maybe?), but the best resource on this planet for taxonomists for Polychaeta information is within the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) at www.marinespecies.org. There is a wealth of detail to explore. Thank you, thank you, Dr Fauchald sir, and helpers. It is surely saving people countless hours in research time. ERMS (MarBEF system) gets data from WoRMS, but I'm not sure why one would use it instead of WoRMS directly. A caveat with WoRMS is that there may be conflicting information, and synonymies should not be assumed to be invariably correct (they are not chiselled in tablets of stone by a higher power), though mostly they will be. As always one's own judgment is required to interpret the information, and some further investigation may be necessary.

While the topic is active, here is a small example of unresolved contrary entries that may be expected, given the enormous number of entries, and the way taxonomy is complex and never static. Austrophyllum monroi Hartman, 1964 and Zverlinum monroi (Hartman, 1964) have separate entries as valid names (entered by different personnel). They are not cross referenced, and looking in the Zverlinum entry one would not know that Austrophyllum was the genus used by Hartman in the original description of the species (IMHO this information is fundamental). Zverlinum Averintsev, 1972, is apparently a valid genus. The entries on Zverlinum were not done by Kristian. Moving on to other sources, according to Pleijel 1991, Zverlinum is, at this time, best treated as a junior synonym of Phyllodoce. Thus FYI the valid name in this example would appear to be Phyllodoce monroi (Hartman, 1964). Another very handy feature WoRMS database offers for the Polychaeta is annotated lists of taxa for each taxonomic publication - one can for example look at the species list for Hartman's, 1964 Antarctic Errantia, and each line is a live link to that name combination. What I would like to see is a means of reporting errors and getting them logged, other than emailing Kristian and others directly, who undoubtedly have other things they'd rather be doing. There may be simple errors, but cases can rapidly get quite complicated and thus consume a great deal of time to sort out from the original literature. Perhaps for starters a dubious page could simply be date tagged as 'Data questioned. Requires update'.

All the below information is also available at the web site: http://www.polychaeta.it/ You are also cordially invited to extend this infomation to your students and colleagues and to whom you think could be interested in attending this meeting. on the behalf of all conveeners and organizers, sincerely, Maria Cristina Gambi You are cordially invited to attend the 10th INTERNATIONAL POLYCHAETE CONFERENCE to be held in LECCE, ITALY from JUNE 20th to 26th, 2010 sponsored by the International Polychaete Association and hosted by the University of Salento (DiSTeBA Department, Lecce). The venue will be the Grand Hotel TIZIANO, the major Hotel and Convention Center in Lecce. All the participants and their families will be accommodated in the Grand Hotel TIZIANO, meaning that both housing and the Conference will be in the same building. However, Lecce is a small comfortable town offering a large array of other accommodation possibilities not far from the Congress Center. The guide-line of the Conference will be: Polychaetes as Biological and Ecological Models: from taxonomy to applied research. Development, Genetics and Physiology are included within the Biological issues. All the applied aspects are included within the Ecological issues. Obviously, Taxonomy is a basic topic for both. Contributions can be presented either as oral communications or as posters. Whenever possible, invited speakers will present and discuss the current status of different topics. Contributions of all aspects of polychaete research, spanning from taxonomy to applied issues, can be accepted for presentation. Priority for oral presentations will be given to those contributions which address, through the use of polychaetes, more general scientific questions. Pure alpha-taxonomy papers will be accepted only as posters. THEMES: A- TAXONOMY B- PHYLOGENY C- EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY ( Development, Evo-Devo, Genetics, Phylogeography) D- REPRODUCTION (including life-cycle, life history, physiology) E- ECOLOGY (including distribution pattern, biogeography, and all applied aspects) English will be the official language of the Conference, both for oral and poster communications and for the publications in the Proceedings. The Proceedings of the conference will be published in the Italian Journal of Zoology (http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/authors/tizoauth.asp) a well-known international journal, published by Taylor and Francis on behalf of the Italian Zoological Union (Unione Zoologica Italiana; UZI). VENUE: Lecce is a historic city, more than 2,000 years old, located in Southern Italy with a population of around 94,100 inhabitants. It is the capital of the Province of Lecce as well as one of the most important cities of the Apulia Region. It is the main city of the Salentine Peninsula which is facing the Adriatic Sea on the east and the Ionian Sea on the west coast, at the heel of the Italian Peninsula. Because of the rich Baroque architectural monuments, Lecce is commonly called the ?The Florence of the South?. The city also has a long traditional affinity with Greek and Roman cultures going back to its foundation. In terms of industry the ?Lecce stone?, a kind of limestone, is the city?s main export, due to it?s softness making it very appropriate for sculptures. Lecce is also an important agricultural centre, mainly for its olive oil and wine production, as well as an industrial centre specialising in ceramic production. Lecce is about 6 km far from the South Adriatic Sea and 20 Km far from the Ionian Sea. Around the main town there is an array of tourist and historical villages and small towns, especially along the coast (Gallipoli, Ostuni, Porto Cesareo, Otranto etc). Lecce has a typical Mediterranean climate, warm all the year around. During the conference, we expect the weather to be sunny, warm and dry (temperature usually ranges around 25-30?C during June). DATES, EVENTS AND DEADLINES 31 May 2009 Pre-registration. 30 September 2009 Deadline of pre-registration. Submission of abstracts 31 December 2009 Deadline of submission of abstracts. Third announcement. Please when submitting abstract you will be invited to indicate if you wish to publish your contribution into the Proceedings. 1 March 2010 Notification of acceptance of the submitted contributions. Inscriptions and booking of Hotel and Conference Excursions. May 2010 Final remarks and conference program. 20-26 June 2010 Cnference and Submission of manuscripts for review and possible publication upon the end of the conference . The program will include invited key-lectures on the different congress themes and a few invited talks on specific relevant topics. The web page of the conference is availableat the site: http://www.polychaeta.it/ REGISTRATION FEES The estimated fees are 450 ? for senior researchers and 350 ? for students and accompanying persons. Depending upon the extra financial support from public and private institutions, the prices may be reduced. The registration fees include the abstracts book, the coffee-break, the lunches, the social dinner (and probably the mid conference tour) and proceedings. ARRIVAL AND ACCOMODATION The Brindisi Airport is directly connected by bus with the Hotel Tiziano Congress Centre. Daily flies connect Brindisi to Rome and Milano International Airports. The train Station is located in the city center, with bus lines well connecting all the city parts, although most of the places in Lecce are achievable by 20 minutes walk. During the Conference, the price of Tiziano Hotel will be from 85 to 110 ? for a single room, and from 115 to 135 ? for a double room. Several different hotels and cheaper residences are offered in Lecce and the list will be available as soon as possible on the web site. MID-CONFERENCE EXCURSION The mid-conference excursion will be a travel along the Salento coastline, including the visit of the historic and tourist towns Otranto and Gallipoli.

Reviewed in Science 14 November 2008: Vol. 322. no. 5904, pp. 1051 - 1052 "No one has been quite so successful in bringing trace fossils to life as Seilacher, and the long-anticipated Trace Fossil Analysis, which grew out of courses he gave at T?bingen University, offers an excellent introduction to his approach." Lots of polychaetes just wedge themselves through sediment - not much burrow structure to the result. Dorgan, K. M.; Jumars, P. A.; Johnson, B. D. ; Boudreau, B.

Posted on behalf of Richard Lord ************************** From: Richard Lord Aloha, During a recent, mostly frivoulous, discussion a colleague asked me about marine collective nouns. I suddenly realised that I didn't know of any accepted collective nouns for single species or multispecies aggregations of worms. I've always used generalised (e.g. aggregation) or structure specific (e.g. mat) terms. That night we decided on a 'wiggle' of worms for a multispecies multitude. I searched annelida archives and didn't find any reference to collective nouns. Online I found: bed, bunch, clat, clew (http://mindprod.com/jgloss/collectivenouns.html) knot, bryce (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_collective_nouns_for_fish,_invertebrates,_and_plants) and other circular references to these. I saw clew and knot reported most commonly, but as I've never heard a wormer use those terms in any but a nautical sense I'm doubtful. Is there an accepted collective noun? Should there be? Does anyone use one?

Relevance for Polychaeta/Annelida topics begins with Eisig, E. B. Wilson, and Haswell, who published in it early on (1882) - Biodiversity Heritage Library might have those. Then in mid 20thC Gesa Hartmann-Schr?der has several papers, also Banse, and there are others pre 2000, including authors who are members of this list, though not a great deal of material I admit.

I don?t know how many of you were waiting for this moment, or how many of you were already aware, but the works by Stephano delle Chiaje are finally available online, through Biodiversity Heritage Library and/or Internet Archive. I did the links below to the BHL, but then I found that at this very moment there are some problems with this site. However Internet Archive is working correctly. The works are: Descrizione e notomia degli animali invertebrati della Sicilia citeriore osservati vivi negli anni 1822-1830 (Volumes 1-8) (Naples, 1841-1844) link (BHL): http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/bibliography/10031 Istituzioni di anatomia e fisiologia comparativa. (Naples, 1832) link (BHL): http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/bibliography/10150 and Memorie sulla storia e notomia degli animali senza vertebre del regno di Napoli (Volumes 1-4 + plates) (Napoles, 1823-1829) link (BHL): http://www.biodiversitylibrary.org/bibliography/10021 The publication dates of these works (or plates) can be a little tricky, and there is a little of disagreement in relation to some of them, but you can find some guidance and help at the following papers: Al?s, C, J. Laborda, J. N??ez, J. Parapar, C. Besteiro, J. Moreira, G. San Mart?n & M.A. Alonso-Zarazaga. 2004. Ap?ndice 1. Nomenclatura: lista de sin?nimos y combinaciones. In: Ramos, M.A., J. Alba, X.

(see pages 518-520). Muir, A.I. 1989. Species of the genus Sigalion (Annelida: Polychaeta) reported from the north-west European waters, with a note on the authorship of the generic name.

It has a nice GIS-layers mapping facility and full downloading facility for the map data. There is a restriction in that it only works in MS internet explorer, and requires a plug-in SVG viewer from Adobe. Heaps of polychaete data though if you are interested in a particular species or in the area generally. Overall 6,800,000 distribution records; 15,000 species. http://www.marbef.org/data/eurobissearch.php http://www.marbef.org/data/eurobisproviders.php Geoff >>> On 9/05/2009 at 7:29 p.m., "Geoff Read" wrote: > Gidday, > > One for the ecologists.
