Parts 1, 2, and 3A of volume VII, i.e., the Crustacea , were published in French in, respectively, 1994, 1996, and 1999. BRILL Academic Publishers recognized the importance of these books and arranged for a translation to be made. However, some of the manuscripts dated from the early 1980s and it was clear from the beginning that in many fields of biology a mere translation of the existing text would not suffice. Thus, all chapters have been carefully reviewed, either by the original authors or by newly attracted specialists, and adequate updates have been prepared accordingly.

Taxonomy, Biology and Distribution of the genus Pleocoma LeConte (Coleoptera, Pleocomidae [Scarabaeoidea]) Studies for this project were begun in 1968, and continued through the 1970’s when several papers were published (see bibiography, below). After a hiatus of more than a decade, studies were reinvigorated by the enthusiasm and energies of Ian Swift, who has made a number of very interesting distributional discoveries. The Pleocoma specimen reference collection is one of the largest, containing several thousand specimens (including several hundred paratypes) representing all of the described species and subspecies, and most of the known population segments. A revision of the Pleocomidae, including a complete literature compendium, taxon accounts, and color digital photographs of all taxa, is currently being finalized for publication. This paper will provide some nomenclatural changes and re-evaluations for existing taxa, along with descriptions of several new species. Thanks go to Ian Swift, for his companionship in the field and numerous discoveries of new and exciting biological and distributional data; Andrew Smith, for stimulus and thoughtful comments; and to Delbert La Rue, who currently is describing a new species of Pleocoma , for his many contributions over the past 20 years.

It reviews the effects of nutritional conditions on the vertical and horizontal distribution of the deep-sea fauna based on examination of the food contents of large numbers of trawl-and-grab caught benthos. The book also describes the global pattern of eutrophic and oligotrophic conditions in the abyss. In particular, it introduces a new 'near-continental' eutrophic zone, where specific feeding conditions occur throughout all oceans.

I hope that people will send in material I can include here. It is not concerned with Strange creatures lurking in lakes in Scotland, Sweden, Canada or anywhere else. Because I am asked the question so frequently I have added a page explaining why the Loch Ness monster is not a plesiosaur. See the button on the left. Decomposing sharks or any other modern marine animals. Decomposing carcases are frequenly interpreted as being those of plesiosaurs, and I am contacted frequently by people trying to argue that that is what they are. All the pictures I've seen show something that is completely unlike a plesisosaur even superficially, and marine biologists and shark experts confirm again and again that these are the carcases of sharks, probably basking sharks.

Poster Title: Taxonomy, Biology’s first ontology, and the Tree of Life, Biology’s grandest endeavour. Nadia Anwar n.anwar@udcf.gla.ac.uk, Univeristy of Glasgow Poster Title: Taxonomy, Biology’s first ontology, and the Tree of Life, Biology’s grandest endeavour. Nadia Anwar PhD Project in the Dept. of Environmental and Evolutionary Biology, University of Glasgow. With the completion of the Human Genome Project, biology’s next large-scale co-ordinated effort is undoubtedly the "Tree of Life". The ultimate goal of which is to understand the evolutionary history of all organisms on the planet. As efforts to reconstruct the tree of life gain momentum, there is a growing need for phylogenetic databases to support this research. Amongst the most pressing needs are a curated taxonomy to ensure consistent naming of organisms in the database. Taxonomy is the discipline of biology whose aim is to allocate all living organisms to formal classificatory units (taxa) – species – genera – families etc and to name all these units according to the international codes of nomenclature. Taxonomy is biology’s original and most well established ontology. This project will develop methodologies and tools to support phylogenetic databases and the hierarchical queries required to access the data. Initially this will be through a web-based portal. Within this portal users can search for a name at any classification level and retrieve information about that name. The search results will include not only the terms entered by the user but synonyms and equivalent terms. This system will be exemplified using phylogenetic trees and the names attached to those trees, allowing users to identify all those trees that may be included within a super tree analysis for inclusion ultimately into the tree of life.

40. Australia's Argonauts ("paper Nautiluses"): Taxonomy, Biology And A Revision Of Australia s argonauts ( paper nautiluses ) taxonomy, biology and a revision of the family Argonautidae (Mollusca Cephalopoda) http://www.hermonslade.org.au/projects/HSF_04_1/hsf_04_1.htm

Australia's argonauts ("paper nautiluses"): taxonomy, biology and a revision of the family Argonautidae (Mollusca: Cephalopoda) A project undertaken at the Science Department, Museum Victoria, and supervised by Mark Norman Argonauts (family Argonautidae) are a unique group of pelagic octopuses found in the tropical and temperate waters of the world. These animals are best known by the beautiful brittle white shell of the female (often called a "paper nautilus"), which is highly prized by beachcombers. Less well-known are the miniature shell-less males. Despite literature and speculation dating back to Aristotle, there is still little known of the hidden lives of the argonauts. Rare glimpses of argonauts paint a picture of a bizarre pelagic creature. These include reports of huge schools of females covering the ocean surface, rapid shell reconstructions, using jellyfishes for transport and defence, extreme size dimorphism between the sexes, and severed male body parts living within the female's gill cavities. Mass shore strandings periodically occur, some covering beaches up to 2 metres thick! To date, the world's species have been identified solely on the basis of the females' shells, with each slight variant being assigned a new species name. As a consequence the taxonomy is a mess. In contrast, males are minute and completely lack a shell. No previous study has made a comprehensive attempt to define the composition of the living argonaut fauna, describe the biology and behaviour of these ocean travellers, nor understand their distributions and origins. Australian waters are home to the highest diversity of these animals of any country in the world. Shells of these animals are well represented in museum and private collections. Less common are specimens of the actual animals that made and resided within these shells.
