چکیده
Bionomical research on the continental shelf of Oran‘s Gulf enabled us to study Annelida macrofauna. Sampling sites were selected according bathymetry, which was divided into eight transects. Collected samples with Aberdeen grab separated Polychaeta Annelids from other zoological groups. 1571 inventoried and determined by species, including ten orders (Amphinomida, Capitellida, Eunicida, Flabelligerida, Ophelida, Oweniida, Phyllodocidae, Sabellida, Spionida, Terebellidae), 24 families, 84 genus 74 species. The analyzed taxa highlighted dominant main species bottom Gulf, Hyalinoecia bilineata, appeared as major Eunice vittata, Chone duneri, Glycera convoluta, Hyalinocea fauveli, Pista cristata, Lumbrinerris fragilis Chloeia venusta.

متن کاملA morphometric analysis of Eunice Cuvier (Annelida, Polychaeta) species
Morphology has been the subject of several studies in Eunice specially in the context of the taxonomy and evolutionary relationships of taxa within this genus. In this study we opt for a morphometric approach comparing five species of Eunice to assess if it was possible to delimitate them by shape variables. The morphology of E. fucata, E. insularis, E. cf. ornata, E. rubra, and Eunice sp. was ...
متن کاملMarine biodiversity of Costa Rica: class Polychaeta (Annelida).
Three hundred and thirty two species of polychaetes belonging to 50 families are reported for Costa Rica based on previously published reports. In a few families, available material was re-examined and appropriate changes in species identifications were made. Only three species, (Glycera oxycephala Ehlers, 1887; Hemipodia pustulata (Friedrich 1956); and Scolepis (Scolepis) squamata (Miller, 180...
متن کاملSyllidae (Annelida, Polychaeta) from the Caribbean coast of Venezuela
Venezuela possesses a great variety of coastal environments allowing for a high diversity of marine species. However, systematic studies on marine invertebrates are scarce, especially on polychaetes. The family Syllidae is poorly known, and only 14 genera and 42 species have been reported from this country. A total of 13 genera and 26 species the Syllidae were identified from benthic samples co...
متن کاملCapitellidae (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica.
Eleven species of Capitellidae (Annelida: Polychaeta) belonging to eight genera are reported from the subtidal and intertidal of the Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. Three species, Mediomastus ambiseta, M. californiensis and Notomastus hemipodus, are found in highest abundances and are widespread in subtidal and intertidal environments. A taxonomic key to these species is included.
