... [Gastropoda: Buccinidae; fossils]. According to Schuchert (2010), Janiopsis Bouillon, 1980 is congeneric with Merga Hartl- aub, 1914 and there is no need to introduce a replacement name. Janiopsis Bouillon is composed of six species, which are combin- ations, and include Merga costata (Bouillon, 1980) Merga nanhaiensis Xu, Huang and Guo, sp. nov. (Fig. 3 Diagnosis. Merga medusa without apical projection, exum- brella without longitudinal ridges and ribs; 8 tentacles and 8 rudi- mentary bulbs, no ocelli; without tentaculae; mouth margin not folded much; mesenteries long; gonads ...

Coral communities of the Yemeni Socotra Archipelago, Arabian Sea were affected by bleaching in May-June 1998. Bleaching was patchily distributed and highly variable in intensity within the Archipelago. Intense bleaching occurred in some coral communities on the north coasts of Socotra and Abd El Kuri, where greater than half the total coral cover w...
Specimens of Teissiera polypofera Xu, Huang & Chen, 1991 were found in waters off the northeast Brazilian coast between 8.858°S, 34.809°W and 9.005°S, 34.805°W and 56 to 717 m depth. The genus can be distinguished from other anthomedusae by the two opposite tentacles with cnidophores and four exumbrellar cnidocyst pouches with ocelli. Specimens wer...
The mysterious food source of anguilliform leptocephali has been difficult to understand, so this review evaluates potential interrelationships among recent discoveries on this subject. There are typically few identifiable gut-content objects in leptocephalus intestines, which usually contain amorphous materials. Gut content observation studies and...
Across the animal kingdom, environmental light cues are widely involved in regulating gamete release, but the molecular and cellular bases of the photoresponsive mechanisms are poorly understood. In hydrozoan jellyfish, spawning is triggered by dark-light or light-dark transitions acting on the gonad, and is mediated by oocyte maturation-inducing n...

The present paper reviews all 14 genera and 46 species belonging to the family Pandeidae from the China seas. Two new species, Leuckartiara ruberiverruca Xu, Guo & Du, sp. nov. and Merga longicosta Xu, Huang & Wang, sp. nov., from the south-central South China Sea, are described and illustrated. Keys to the known genera of family Pandeidae in the China seas and to all known species of the genus Merga are provided. Other data are briefly summarized to the list of species presented in the family Pandeidae in the China seas. The type species were deposited at the South China Sea Fisheries Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Fishery Science.
... For this reason, Acta Oceanologica Sinica (AOS) organize this special issue of the marine taxonomy and new records, to help on covering as many marine new species and records done by Chinese taxonomists as possible. We report a series of new species and records from Chinese coastlines, offshores, high seas and the adjacent West Pacific and eastern Indian Ocean, including marine cyanobacteria (Zhang et al., 2018c), dinoflagellates (Hu et al., 2018;Xiao et al., 2018), Haptophyta (Zhang et al., 2018d), diatoms (Li et al., 2018a), green alga (Ding et al., 2018), foraminifera (Lei and Li, 2018Munir and Sun, 2018a), ostracods (Du et al., 2018b), ciliates (Chen and Xu, 2018Sun, 2018b), trichodinids (Zhan et al., 2018), jellyfish (Aungtonya et al., 2018;Du et al., 2018a;Guo et al., 2018b;Wang et al., 2018b), polychaeta Sui and Li, 2018;Sun et al., 2018b;Wang and Li, 2018;Wu and Xu, 2018), nematodes (Fu et al., 2018;Guo et al., 2018a;Huang et al., 2018;Shi et al., 2018;Sun et al., 2018a) (Belattmania et al., 2018), copepods (Liu et al., 2018;Ma and Li, 2018), chiton (Wang et al., 2018c), shrimps (Gan and Li, 2018), Gastropoda (Chen and Zhang, 2018), microzooplankton , and mesozooplankton .
