“…Peak densities of M. leidyi measured during this study in the Rhode River (approximately 200 individuals m Ϫ3 and nearly 300 mL m Ϫ3 ) are higher than those reported in the Pamlico River, North Carolina (just over 60 mL m Ϫ3 ; Miller, 1974) or the mid-Chesapeake Bay (Purcell et al 2001), but similar to abundances reported for Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island (Deason, 1982;Sullivan et al, 2001). Peak Rhode River densities measured in this study were lower, however, than those reported for systems such as the Black and Caspian Seas to which M. leidyi has been introduced (Kideys and Romanova, 2001;Bilio and Niermann, 2004).…”

s m i t h s o n i a n c o n t r i b u t i o n s t o t h e m a r i n e s c i e n c e s • n u m b e r 3 8 SERIES PUBLICATIONS OF THE SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTIONEmphasis upon publication as a means of "diffusing knowledge" was expressed by the fi rst Secretary of the Smithsonian. In his formal plan for the Institution, Joseph Henry outlined a program that included the following statement: "It is proposed to publish a series of reports, giving an account of the new discoveries in science, and of the changes made from year to year in all branches of knowledge." This theme of basic research has been adhered to through the years by thousands of titles issued in series publications under the Smithsonian imprint, commencing with Smithsonian Contributions to Knowledge in 1848 and continuing with the following active series: Smithsonian Contributions to Anthropology Smithsonian Contributions to Botany Smithsonian Contributions in History and Technology Smithsonian Contributions to the Marine Sciences Smithsonian Contributions to Museum Conservation Smithsonian Contributions to Paleobiology Smithsonian Contributions to ZoologyIn these series, the Institution publishes small papers and full-scale monographs that report on the research and collections of its various museums and bureaus. The Smithsonian Contributions Series are distributed via mailing lists to libraries, universities, and similar institutions throughout the world.Manuscripts submitted for series publication are received by the Smithsonian Institution Scholarly Press from authors with direct affi liation with the various Smithsonian museums or bureaus and are subject to peer review and review for compliance with manuscript preparation guidelines. General requirements for manuscript preparation are on the inside back cover of printed volumes. For detailed submissions requirements and to review the "Manuscript Preparation and Style Guide for Authors," visit the Submissions page at www.scholarlypress.si.edu. The paper used in this publication meets the minimum requirements of the American National Standard for Permanence of Paper for Printed Library Materials Z39. Foreword N early two-thirds of Earth's surface is covered by the ocean, a global system essential to all life. Impacts on one part of the ocean can have worldwide effects. The ocean moderates our climate, provides valuable resources, and produces at least half the oxygen we breathe: it makes our planet livable. We know little, however, about the physical, chemical, geological, and biological aspects of this crucial life support system. s m i t h s o n i a n c o n t r i b u t i o n s t o t h e m a r i n S M I T H S O N I A N C O N T R I B U T I O N S T O T H E M A R I N E S C I E N C E S MARINE BIODIVERSITY, EVOLUTION, AND SPECIATION S M I T H S O N I A N C O N T R I B U T I O N S T O T H E M A R I N E S C I E N C E S i i i • S M I T H S O N I A N C O N T R I B U T I O N S T O T H E M A R I N E S C I E N C E SThe Smithsonian Institution, in efforts to increase knowledge about the ocean, has established a ...

“…Most likely this was some sort of a shock reaction to the very low temperatures, but it could also be that this reflects some diel vertical migration behaviour, even though this is not very likely, since the animals had been kept in the laboratory under constant light conditions for longer periods already. Moreover, conflicting reports exist whether Pleurobrachia performs diel vertical migration at all [compare Mutlu and Bingel (1999) with Kideys and Romanova (2001) for the same system], and whether these patterns are induced by diel (Wang et al 1995) or other (tidal) cycles (Kopacz 1994).…”

Effects of temperature and the presence of benthic predators on the vertical distribution of the ctenophore Pleurobrachia pileus

2004

This study details the investigations of the effect of temperature and the presence of predators on the vertical distribution of the ctenophore Pleurobrachia pileus. Previous studies had suggested that P. pileus moves to the sediment when exposed to colder temperatures as an energy saving strategy. Although we did observe an effect of temperature on the movement of the ciliate combs, the effect of temperature on the average depth of animals in the water column was not significant, but a significant interaction was found between temperature and exposure time. In the presence of benthic predators or of water previously inhabited by these predators P. pileus changed its vertical distribution significantly, and moved away from the sediment, thus reducing the risk of being predated. We conclude that P. pileus can sense the presence of its predators, and changes its behaviour accordingly.

“…The scyphozoan species were relatively well studied in İzmir Bay (Ergen, 1967;Balık, 1972) and around Gökçeada (Öztürk and Topaloğlu, 2011), where more than 4 species were reported ( Figure 5B). Aurelia aurita is a common species along the coast of the Black Sea (Kideys and Romanova, 2001), Cotylorhiza tuberculata in Gökova Bay (Gülşahin and Tarkan, 2011b), and Rhopilema nomadica in Mersin Bay and İskenderun Bay (Avşar, 1999). The highest number of anthozoan species (>12 species) was found around the Prince Islands and Kaş, where relatively intensive research has been performed ( Figure 5C).…”

This paper presents the actual status of species diversity of the phyla Cnidaria and Ctenophora along the Turkish coasts of the Black Sea, the Sea of Marmara, the Aegean Sea, and the Levantine Sea. A total of 195 cnidarian species belonging to 5 classes (Hydrozoa, Cubozoa, Scyphozoa, Staurozoa, and Anthozoa) have been determined in these regions. Eight anthozoan species (Arachnanthus oligopodus, Bunodactis rubripunctata, Bunodeopsis strumosa, Corynactis viridis, Halcampoides purpureus, Sagartiogeton lacerates, Sagartiogeton undatus, and Pachycerianthus multiplicatus) are reported for the first time as elements of the Turkish marine fauna in the present study. The highest number of cnidarian species (121 species) was reported from the Aegean Sea, while the lowest (17 species) was reported from the Black Sea. The hot spot areas for cnidarian diversity are the Prince Islands, İstanbul Strait, İzmir Bay, and Datça Peninsula, where relatively intensive scientific efforts have been carried out. Regarding ctenophores, 7 species are distributed along the Turkish coasts, 5 of which were reported from the Black Sea. A total of 16 alien cnidarian and 2 ctenophore species were determined in the regions. Two species (Sagartiogeton laceratus and Pachycerianthus multiplicatus) are new alien species for the Mediterranean Sea and could have been introduced to the northern part of the Sea of Marmara and İskenderun Bay, areas from which these species are recorded, by ships from the North-East Atlantic.
