The marine areas of South America (SA) include almost 30,000 km of coastline and encompass three different oceanic domains--the Caribbean, the Pacific, and the Atlantic--ranging in latitude from 12∘N to 55∘S. The 10 countries that border these coasts have different research capabilities and taxonomic traditions that affect taxonomic knowledge. This paper analyzes the status of knowledge of mari...
The US Pacific Coast has been largely free of fishery collapses that have occurred elsewhere, but the situation appears to be changing. Here, we show results from the first systematic study of demersal fishes along the US Pacific Coast. Using data from a quarter-century long, fishery-independent, coast-wide trawl survey, we document fundamental shifts in the demersal fish assemblage along the U...
Since the first discovery of deep-sea hydrothermal vents along the Galápagos Rift in 1977, numerous vent sites and endemic faunal assemblages have been found along mid-ocean ridges and back-arc basins at low to mid latitudes. These discoveries have suggested the existence of separate biogeographic provinces in the Atlantic and the North West Pacific, the existence of a province including the So...
Pacific salmon colonized the west coast of Canada following the last ice age (Groot and Margolis 1991) and are now found throughout British Columbia. British Columbia salmon have been harvested by members of the aboriginal community for several thousand years (Kew and Griggs 1991). More recently however, particularly over the last 125 years, salmon have also become the focus of intense commerci...
A new species of the endoparasitic copepod Enterognathus (Cyclopoida, Enterognathidae) is described from a crinoid host in the Seto Inland Sea, western Japan. This is a third species of the genus and its first occurrence in the Pacific Ocean. The new species is distinguished from two previously known congeners by the morphology of the body somites, caudal rami, antennae and legs. Crinoid parasi...
The first studies of the zoology oi" XortLeiu Calilbruia of which we have any record were those of Dr. J. S. Xewberry, iu conuectiou with the Pacific llailroad Surveys of uearly thirty years ago.* Subsequently, collections of mammals, birds, and reptiles were made at Fort Crook by Lieut. John Feilner and D. F. Parkinson, and at Yreka by Mr. William Vuille, but no publications on the subject app...
An atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM) is used to examine the role of Indian Ocean sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies in regional climate variability. In particular, the authors focus on the effect of the basinwide warming that occurs during December through May after the mature phase of El Niño. To elucidate the relative importance of local and remote forcing, model solutions wer...
The boreal summer intraseasonal oscillation (ISO) in the global tropics is documented here using a 7-year suite (1998–2004) of satellite measurements. A composite scenario was made of 28 selected events with reference to the oscillation in the eastern equatorial Indian Ocean (EIO), where the oscillation is most regular and its intensity is indicative of the strength of the subsequent northward ...
REPRESENTATIVE FANNING ISLAND INSHORE FISHES were collected by means of rotenone poisoning in January 1970. The collections were made with the objective of elucidating the zoogeographic relationships of the Line Islands fish fauna. The results are presented here. Zoogeographically, the Central Pacific forms an eastward extension of the great Indo-West Pacific faunal region centered today in the...
A new species of portunid crab (Brachyura: Portunidae) from southern Madagascar and central Philippines is described. Monomia calla sp. nov. is most similar in morphology to M. lecromi (Moosa, 1996) from the Chesterfield Islands in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, and M. rubromarginata (Lanchester, 1900) from the South China Sea, Singapore, Malay Archipelago and the northern half of Australia. T...
