    Description: The Caribbean scleractinian reef coral Agaricia undata (Agariciidae) is recorded for the first time as a host of the coral-gall crab Opecarcinus hypostegus (Cryptochiridae). The identity of the crab was confirmed with the help of DNA barcoding. The association has been documented with photographs taken in situ at 25 m depth and in the laboratory. The predominantly mesophotic depth range of the host species suggests this association to be present also at greater depths. With this record, all seven Agaricia species are now listed as gall-crab hosts, together with the agariciid Helioseris cucullata. Within the phylogeny of Agariciidae, Helioseris is not closely related to Agaricia. Therefore, the association between Caribbean agariciids and their gall-crab symbionts may either have originated early in their shared evolutionary history or later as a result of host range expansion. New information on coral-associated fauna, such as what is presented here, leads to a better insight on the diversity, evolution, and ecology of coral reef biota, particularly in the Caribbean, where cryptochirids have rarely been studied.

    Description: Polysyncraton Nott, 1892 is the second largest genus of didemnid ascidians; it has a wide \ndistribution ranging from temperate to tropical waters. Seventy-one specimens of Polysyncraton from \neight museum collections and recently collected samples were analyzed. This resulted in the description \nof three new species (P. cabofriense Oliveira & Rocha sp. nov. from Brazil, P. globosum Oliveira & \nRocha sp. nov. from Australia and P. snelliusi Oliveira & Rocha sp. nov. from Suriname) and emended \ndescriptions of three further species (P. amethysteum (Van Name, 1902), P. magnilarvum (Millar, 1962) \nand P. purou C. Monniot & F. Monniot, 1987).

    Description: Late Quaternary (Eemian) deposits of the Netherlands contain shells that resemble those of living Mytilus galloprovincialis. Similar broad-shelled mytilids also occur in estuaries of the southwestern Netherlands together with slender individuals typical of M. edulis. We sampled living mussels along a depth gradient in the Oosterschelde to a) investigate whether a relation exists between shell shape and depth, b) test if the broadshelled specimens might represent M. galloprovincialis (or a hybrid with M. edulis) and c) assess by inference if the Quaternary specimens might be attributed to M. galloprovincialis as well. In order to do so, we compared genetic (length polymorphism of Me 15/16, COIII sequences and AFLPs) and shellmorphological characteristics (juvenile L/W ratios and socalled Verduin parameters) of the same specimens. The obtained dataset indicates that all studied mussels from the Oosterschelde should be attributed to M. edulis, including those with broad shell outlines. No correlation of shell-morphology and depth-distribution was found. The worn and generally damaged state of the Eemian specimens precluded measurement of the Verduin parameters, while juvenile L/W ratios turned out not to be diagnostic. Therefore the shell characters examined in this study are insufficient to demonstrate the possible presence of M. galloprovincialis shells in Quaternary deposits of the Netherlands.

    Description: Capitate hydrozoans are a morphologically and ecologically diverse hydrozoan suborder, currently including about 200 species.Being grouped in two clades, Corynida and Zancleida, these hydrozoans still show a number of taxonomic uncertainties at the species,genus and family levels. Many Capitata species established symbiotic relationships with other benthic organisms, including bryozoans,other cnidarians, molluscs and poriferans, as well as with planktonic dinoflagellates for mixotrophic relationships and with bacteria forthiotrophic ectosymbioses. Our study aimed at providing an updated and comprehensive phylogeny reconstruction of the suborder, atmodelling the evolution of selected morphological and ecological characters, and at testing evolutionary relationships between the sym-biotic lifestyle and the other characters, by integrating taxonomic, ecological and evolutionary data. The phylogenetic hypotheses herepresented shed light on the evolutionary relationships within Capitata, with most families and genera being recovered as monophyletic.The genusZancleaand family Zancleidae, however, were divided into four divergent clades, requiring the establishment of the newgenusApatizancleaand the new combinations for species inZancleaandHalocorynegenera. The ancestral state reconstructionsrevealed that symbiosis arose multiple times in the evolutionary history of the Capitata, and that homoplasy is a common phenomenonin the group. Correlations were found between the evolution of symbiosis and morphological characters, such as the perisarc. Overall,our results highlighted that the use of genetic data and a complete knowledge of the life cycles are strongly needed to disentangle taxo-nomic and systematic issues in capitate hydrozoans. Finally, the colonization of tropical habitat appears to have influenced the evolu-tion of a symbiotic lifestyle, playing important roles in the evolution of the group.

    Description: Dendrophylliidae represents one of the most speciose families of scleractinian coral, expressing a wide range of morphological and ecological traits. Recent phylogenetic analyses of the family have indicated that several conventional genera are in need of revision. In the Gulf of Thailand, dendrophylliids are predominantly found on hard-substrate reefs and pinnacles, or on soft-substrate habitats. Soft-substrate habitats in the Gulf of Thailand have been shown to host unique species assemblages and faunal ecology. Here we provided an updated phylogenetic hypothesis for the Dendrophylliidae based on newly sequenced species, and analyses integrating morphology, genetics and ecology. High-resolution Micro-ct was used to create digital versions of the studied species, allowing for non-destructive examination of internal and external features. Our findings allowed for a taxonomic assessment of the genera Heteropsammia and Tubastraea, with the species Balanophyllia (Eupsammia) stimpsonii, moved to the genus Tubastraea. They also support the polyphyly of Dendrophyllia and Cladopsammia. In-situ surveys provided population-density information for four dendrophylliid species from soft substrate habitats, indicating that the species Heteropsammia moretonensis may be the most widespread within the Gulf of Thailand. These surveys also provided novel ecological documentation associated with these corals, including protocooperative feeding upon a sea pen by Tubastraea stimpsonii comb. nov., and feeding upon other cnidarians by Heteropsammia spp.

    Description: The phylogenetic relationships of the Fungiidae, a family of predominantly free-living, zooxanthellate, reef corals, were studied by sequencing a part of the mitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase I (COI) and the complete ribosomal Internal Transcribed Spacers (ITS) I & II of specimens from various locations in the Indo- West Pacific. Some sequences were retrieved by using fungiidspecific primers on DNA-extracts from parasitic gastropods living with these corals. The analyses were performed both including and excluding intraspecific variation to investigate the potential effect of saturation. Even though the present molecular phylogeny reconstructions largely reflect those based on morphological characters, there are some distinct differences. Three major clades are distinguished, one of which consists of species with relatively long tentacles. The two other major clades cannot yet be clearly separated from each other morphologically. Several polyphyletic taxa were detected and some genera and species that previously were considered closely related to each other, appear not to be so. Proposed nomenclatorial changes include amongst others the upgrading of subgenera in Fungia to genus level. A few species moved from one genus to another. Among all Fungiidae, the loss of the ability to become free-living appears to have evolved independently as reversals in four separate clades, including two that were previously assumed to be sister groups. The evolution of corals with additional (secondary) mouths leading to polystomatous growth forms from corals with only a single primary mouth (monostomatous growth form) appears to have occurred independently ten times: seven times by extrastomatal budding and three times by intrastomatal budding. In two clades, Herpolitha and Polyphyllia, both mechanisms co-evolved. In general there is no clear relationship between the loss of a freeliving phase and the evolution of multiple mouths.
