Polychaete Diversity Related to Different Mesophotic Bioconstructions along the Southeastern Italian Coast

چکیده
In the different mesophotic bioconstructions recently found along Southeastern Italian coast, polychaetes have been proved to show high species richness and diversity, hitherto never investigated. present study, composition functional role of polychaete assemblages were analysed; updated key identification Mediterranean genus Eunice was presented some taxonomic issues also discussed. On total 70 Serpulidae Eunicida dominant polychaetes. Facing similar levels α-diversity, showed a turnover north-south gradient, clearly according current circulation pattern, as well bioconstructors biological determinants. Indeed, on primarily formed by deep-sea oyster Neopycnodonte cochlear, while prevailed mainly built scleractinians. Lastly, record dubitata first for fauna this be characteristic bioconstructions.

The biogeography and phylogeography concordance hypothesis suggests that the same factors, for instance physical barriers or environmental gradients, shape both species assemblages and intraspecific genetic structure. In the marine realm, previous studies have however suggested that phylogeographic patterns are also explained by the life-history strategy of the species. However, evidence is con...

Data collected during an oceanographic cruise along the southeastern Brazilian coast from Cape Frio (22 degrees 58' S) and Paraná (27 degrees 50' S) in March 1982 showed that the marine insect Halobates micans occurred along the Southeastern Brazilian Bight, but in lower abundance in low-temperature areas due to the intrusion and upwelling of South Atlantic Central Water, and in low-salinity ar...
متن کاملThe Plantation Archaeology of the Southeastern Coast
The archaeology of slave settlements is a recent development within historical archaeology but has gained substantial headway during the last few years. Most of the excavations have been in coastal areas of the Southeastern United States, principally in Georgia and South Carolina. Substantive questions about housing, diet, and lifestyle have been examined. Some comparison between planters. over...
متن کاملPolychaete Community of a Marine Protected Area along the West Coast of India—Prior and Post the Tropical Cyclone, Phyan
Tropical cyclones are extreme random meteorological events that can have profound implications to coastal biodiversities. Given that the frequency, intensity and duration of these events are poised to increase due to the global climate change, understanding the ecological impacts of such erratic occurrences becomes imperative to devise better management strategies. The eventful passage of the t...
