“…The species were identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level using a Leica TL5000 Ergo Transmitted Light Base magnifier, based on the identification literature provided by Lincoln (1979); Enckell (1980); Graham (1988); Hayward andRyland (1995), andChristiansen (1972). The nomenclature used in the species list is in accordance with the database 'Worlds Register of Marine Species'.…”

‘Hanging gardens’—comparing fauna communities in kelp farms and wild kelp forests

A growing need for food is causing increased interest for seaweed farming globally. This requires the knowledge of the industry’s effects on the marine environment. We therefore aimed to explore the communities hosted by a kelp farm compared to that of wild kelp forests. The study was performed in mid-western Norway. Kelp associated fauna were collected from farmed kelp (Saccharina latissima and Alaria esculenta), in wild kelp forests (S. latissima, A. esculenta, and Laminaria hyperborea), and from fauna traps in the water column. The study showed that the kelp farm had lower taxa abundance and richness and a lower biodiversity than the wild kelp forests. Nonetheless, the farmed kelp hosted many associated species, with communities different from what was found on ropes without kelp (i.e., in the water column). The fauna communities among the farmed kelp were more similar to what was found in the wild L. hyperborea kelp forest than to its wild counterparts. The difference between the fauna communities of ‘old’ and ‘young’ farmed kelp (grown for 3 and 7 months, respectively) was not significant, but the fauna was dominated by the isopod species Idotea pelagica in the young forest and by amphipods, mainly belonging to the genus Caprella, in the older. The study contributes to our knowledge of kelp farms’ ecological role in the marine environment, which is of importance for today’s management as well as for ensuring a sustainable future development of the kelp farming industry.

“…Up to now, two collections of pauropods have become available from north Borneo, together containing 99 specimens. Seven species were reported from the smaller collection (Scheller et al, 1994) and 14 have been reported above. Because only one species was common (Allopauropus proximus), the pauropods seem to be very diversified on Borneo.…”

“…Subgenus Donzelotauropus Remy, 1957 The genus Stylopauropus is mainly Holarctic, with only a few records from southern countries. There is a dubious record from Argentina and two species, probably introduced, have been reported from Australia (vide Scheller et al, 1994).…”

Mount Kinabalu. Almost all samples were taken in primary rain forests, from dipterocarp lowland forests at 30 m a.s.l. to Lithocarpus-Castanopsis forests at 3270 m. Animals were collected from litter and subsoil mainly by means of automatical extraction (Berlese funnels and Winkler-Moczarski apparatus) and to a less degree manually. Fourteen species are present in the material collected by Dr Hauser. They belong to 7 genera in 3 families: 4 in Pauropodidae {Allopauropus, Pauropus, Stylopauropus, Hemipauropus), one in Brachypauropodidae (Brachypauropoides) and 2 in Eurypauropodidae (Samarangopus, Sphaeropauropus). With this material it has been possible to add 12 species to the Bornean fauna and to describe 9 new species. The latter are Allopauropus kinabaluensis sp.
