Franciscideresgen. nov. – a new, highly aberrant kinorhynch genus from Brazil, with an analysis of its phylogenetic position

Abstract: A new genus and species of Kinorhyncha, Franciscideres kalenesos gen. et sp. nov., is described from tidal and subtidal sandy habitats in Brazil. The new genus and species is characterized by an extremely flexible trunk without pachycycli that appears perfectly circular in cross-section, segments 1, 2 and 11 consisting of closed rings and 3 to 10 of single, bent plates with midventral articulations, a neck without placids that resembles an additional segment, densely packed scale-like, cuticular hairs, and a t… Show more

“…Kinorhynch phylogeny, and hence also homalorhagid phylogeny, was recently addressed in two studies based on molecular sequence data from 18S rRNA (Dal Zotto et al 2013) and combined 18S rRNA and 28S rRNA (Yamasaki et al 2013). The results of the two studies are congruent in several ways, e.g., they confirm a close relationship between species of Pycnophyes and Kinorhynchus and they indicate that Dracoderes is a homalorhagid taxon as well.…”

“…The results of the two studies are congruent in several ways, e.g., they confirm a close relationship between species of Pycnophyes and Kinorhynchus and they indicate that Dracoderes is a homalorhagid taxon as well. Dal Zotto et al (2013) also suggest that the aberrant genus Franciscideres (and perhaps even Cateria) is more closely related to the homalorhagids or it could be a very basal homalorhagid or even a basal kinorhynch. However, none of the two studies were able to include sequence data from a representative of Neocentrophyes, and even though data were included for Paracentrophyes anurus , it was not possible for any of the studies to clarify its exact position inside Homalorhagida.…”

“…In the end of the last century taxonomical and ecological studies on meiofauna taxa again were published regularly(e.g. Todaro & Rocha 2004, 2005, Hooge & Rocha 2006, Amaral & Nalin 2011, Andrade et al 2011, Dal Zotto et al 2013, especially for Nematoda and Copepoda (Carvalho et al 1992;Corbisier 1993Corbisier , 1999Esteves and Genevois 1997;Genevois and Bezerra 1997;Kihara and Rocha 2009;Lotufo and Rocha 1993;Netto et al 1999a, b;Santos et al 1999). According to the ISI Web of Knowledge and Google Scholar, it is only in the last decade that publications on meiofauna by Brazilian authors have been published consistently every year among ISI journals as well as in "gray" literature (Fig.…”
