Benthic ostracods (Crustacea) from the Vitória-Trindade Chain, South Atlantic Ocean, with the description of five new species

Nathália Carvalho da Luz

Abstract: This work is the second part of the analysis of ostracods from the Vitória-Trindade Chain ̶ consisting of four seamounts and Trindade Island—which resulted in the recording of 28 species belonging to 14 genera and eight families. Five new species of Cytherellidae, Bairdiidae, Bythocytheridae, and Xestoleberididae are described in this paper, as follows: Keijcyoidea oceanica sp. nov., Bairdoppilata vitoriensis sp. nov., Vandenboldina kyryia sp. nov., Xestoleberis acuminata sp. nov. and Xestoleberis caperata sp.… Show more

The single specimen of Bairdia fasciata Brady, 1870 in the Great North Museum, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, is declared to be the holotype by monotypy. Because it is a closed carapace, the internal characters remain unknown. Taxonomically, neither the genus nor the species is identifiable, nor can the subsequent identification in Belize be confirmed. New sampling at the type locality in the Cape Verde Islands is recommended, to recover a population for taxonomic re-description. Here, two new species of Genus Bairdoppilata are described from the carbonate platform of Belize, Ba. magnafasciata, n. sp. and Ba. parvafasciata, n. sp. Both display similarities to B. fasciata from the Cape Verde Islands, but neither one can be identified with that species. Both species are widely distributed in shallow coastal assemblages around the central and northern Caribbean. In taxonomy, names matter, and the correction of published misidentifications is essential. Clarification of these species enables more accurate delineation of ecological and biogeographical distributions in Caribbean assemblages.

The present contribution documents the occurrence of Triebelina indopacifica van den Bold around Moorea and Tahiti, Windward Islands, French Polynesia and describes the new species Triebelina porinetia sp. nov.. The morphology of numerous specimens attributed to A-1 and A-2 juvenile stages of Triebelina indopacifica is thoroughly described, allowing the first insights into its ontogeny. With the aim to unravel the significance of poorly exploited characters in their taxonomy and systematics, the pore systems of Triebelina indopacifica and Triebelina porinetia sp. nov. are described. Patterns are recognized through the specimens and homologous pore systems characterizing the studied Triebelina species are proposed. The distribution of pore systems on the lateral surface of Triebelina therefore appears of generic significance, while indications at the species level may be sought in the morphology of rims of rimmed pores, as well as of marginal spines.
