Investigations have been made on the carotenoids in the marine amphipod Hyale perieri (Lucas) from the Black Sea. The presence of the carotenoids -carotene, canthaxanthin, lutein, neoxanthin and astaxanthin was determined by means of columnar and thin-layer chromatography. It is highly probable that violaxanthin is also present in H. perieri.  相似文献

Photomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used to determine the fine structure of the latero-frontal cirri on the gills of three species of bivalve mollusc: Mytilus edulis Linn., Barnea candida (Linn.), and Petricola pholadiformis Lam. The component cilia are seen to branch off alternately along the length of each cirrus. Each of these free, lateral lengths of the cilia are separated from the next on their side by a mean distance of 0.6 m. They extend to a mean length of 2.7 m in M. edulis, the species described in detail. It is shown that a complete straining mesh can be formed over the gill ostium during normal filtering and the aperture of this mesh correlates well with the previously recorded filtering efficiency for Mytilus.  相似文献

Investigations have been carried out on the carotenoids in Leander (Palaemon) serratus (Pennant) and Nephrops norvegicus (L.) (Crustacea: Decapoda) from the Adriatic Sea. The presence of the carotenoids was determined by means of columnar and thin-layer chromatography. The following carotenoids were found: Leander serratus: -carotene, echinenone, isocryptoxanthin, cryptoxanthin, canthaxanthin, lutein, isozeaxanthin, zeaxanthin, astaxanthin, and astacene; Nephrops norvegicus: -carotene, lutein, zeaxanthin, astaxanthin, and astacene.  相似文献

This paper deals with 6 species of marine gammaridean amphipods belonging to the family Ampithoidae. The specimens described were collected from Mandapam (Gulf of Mannar), India and Thankasserry (Quilon, Kerala), India. The collection includes 3 new species, namely Ampithoe (Ampithoe) serraticauda, Ampithoe (Pleonexes) auriculata and Cymadusa imbroglio. Ampithoe (Ampithoe) kergueleni Stebbing (1888) is a new record for this region, while Ampithoe (Ampithoe) ramondi Audouin (1826) and Cymadusa filosa Savigny (1816), the two well-known tropicopolitan members, are briefly redescribed. The study supports Barnard's (1970, p. 23) contention that the genus Pleonexes Bate (1857) (since reduced to subgeneric status under the genus Ampithoe Leach, 1814) represents only a grade of evolution, but suggests that the structure of the 1st maxillary and mandibular palps and the outer lobes of the lower lip should also be taken into consideration, in combination with the telsonic processes, for distinguishing Pleonexes from Ampithoe. Based on this concept, a reappraisal of some of the species of the genera is suggested. The subgenus Ampithoe is created to hold those species of Ampithoe showing typical characteristics of the genus.  相似文献

The material examined consisted of adult specimens (male and female) of the shrimp Crangon crangon (L.) collected during the summer of 1967 from the Gdask Bay of the Baltic Sea. Column and thin-layer chromatography was used for the separation of the carotenoids. The ester compounds and protein complexes of carotenoids were hydrolized with 15% KOH in methanol at room temperature in a nitrogen atmosphere for 48 h. The absorption maxima of the various fractions and spots were determined on the spectrophotometer Specol after eluation. The identification of the carotenoids was based mainly on the absorption maxima in appropriate organic solvents and on the Rt values. The acetone extract from the Crangon crangon specimens gave a light blue fluorescence and absorption maxima at wavelengths of 447, 463, 595 to 596 and 667 m. The following carotenoids were found to be present in the adult specimens of Crangon crangon: -carotene, cantaxanthin, astaxanthin, free and esterified lutein, zeaxanthin, and a form of xanthophyll which was not precisely identified. In addition to the above, biliary dyes were also found, probably of the mesobiliviolin and mesobilirhodin type.  相似文献

Sodium and chloride concentrations of the haemolymph were determined in Sphaeroma rugicauda Leach and S. serratum Fabricius acclimatized to a range of salinities. Sodium loss and uptake (using 22Na) were measured in salinities below 1.1 for S. rugicauda and 7.2 for S. serratum. Potential differences between haemolymph and medium indicate active uptake of both ions in certain salinities. The active-uptake component of total sodium-influx was found to be related non-linearly to the sodium concentration of the medium. Curves of were fitted to the activeuptake data. Km values indicate that, in S. rugicauda, the sodium uptake system has a greater affinity for sodium than in S. serratum. These findings are discussed in relation to the distribution of each species.  相似文献

Changes in the amounts of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll c, fucoxanthin, diadinoxanthin and -carotene were determined during Phaeodactylum tricornutum growth. The transition of the culture from the logarithmic to the stationary phase is accompanied by an increase in the carotenoids: chlorophyll a ratio, associated with variations in the percentage of individual carotenoids. While fucoxanthin content decreases with the age of the culture, diadinoxanthin content increases and -carotene remains almost constant. The furanoid isomer of diadinoxanthin, absent during logarithmic growth, appears increasingly during the nutrient-deficient period. Changes in the amounts of chlorophyll a, chlorophyll c and fucoxanthin are quite similar.  相似文献

The plasmaprotein of a specimen of Grampus griseus G Cuvier, captured in the Western Mediterranean, is studied for the first time and the data obtained are compared with data previously determined by the same method (microelectrophoresis on cellulose acetate gel) for Stenella, Delphinus and Phocaena. Some hematochemical values related to glycemia, azotemia and cholesterolemia (total and fractional) are also given and discussed, together with data on glutamic oxalacetic and glutamic pyruvic transaminases; special reference is made to the theory of Cornelius (1963) on hepatic glutamic pyruvic transaminase.Contributions on Cetacea: XXIV.

In an attempt to clarify the surface structure of Heterosigma akashiwo, the organisms were processed by a series of currently utilized methods for carbohydrate and protein histochemistry of light microscopy. The results indicated that: (1) H. akashiwo cell has previously undetected glycocalyx on the cell surface; (2) this extracellular structure consists of at least two different types of acidic complex carbohydrates, sulfated and non-sulfated, together with a neutral carbohydrate-protein complex with 1,2-glycol groups and -d-mannosyl and -d-glucosyl residues; (3) a particular moiety of acidic complex carbohydrates involved in the glycocalyx is presumably hyaluronic acid or a closely related substance; and (4) the histochemical nature of the glycocalyx on the cell surface of the present species is comparable with that of Chattonella antiqua, excluding a difference in the nature of the neutral carbohydrate-protein complex.  相似文献

Pelagic eggs of the scaled sardine Harengula pensacolae (Goode and Bean), have been hatched and reared in the laboratory for the first time. Larvae were reared in two 75 l aquaria under constant illumination, at an average temperature of 26.2°C. Zooplankton collected in a 35 mesh net was fed to the newly hatched larvae, and the diet was supplemented later with Artemia salina nauplii and a pelleted food. Larvae hatched at 4 mm TL (total length), and metamorphosed about 25 days later at 25 to 30 mm TL. Survivors averaged 76 mm TL 100 days after hatching. Of the 500 incubated eggs, 2.8% survived until 20 days, after which no significant natural mortality occurred. Sources of natural mortality included starvation, a copepod parasite (Caligus sp.), and injuries from contact with the sides of the tank. Larvae began feeding at 4.5 mm TL on copepod nauplii averaging 62 in body width. Scaled sardines were photopositive throughout the larval stage.Contribution No. 149, Bureau of Commercial Fisheries Tropical Atlantic Biological Laboratory, Miami, Florida 33149, USA.  相似文献

The present paper describes the procedures adopted for axenic or pure cultivation of the marine blue-green alga Trichodesmium erythraeum (Ehr.)1 in the laboratory. Strains of T. erythraeum were isolated from the nearshore waters of the Bay of Bengal (11°29 N 79°49 E) during the pre-bloom period in March, 1965, at a depth of 9 to 12m. Modified, enriched, Erdschreiber medium was used for laboratory cultivation of T. erythraeum. A differential concentration of streptomycin 6 mg/100 ml, tetracycline 5 mg/100 ml and sulfadiazine 4 mg/100 ml was used to inhibit the microbial growth in cultures. Difficulties experienced in the initial culture stages of T. erythraeum and the necessary specific instructions employed are described in detail.  相似文献

In Ensis directus (Conrad) metabolic changes accompanying muscular activity and experimental anoxia were investigated. Octopine dehydrogenase, strombine dehydrogenase, alanopine dehydrogenase and lactic dehydrogenase were shown to be present in different parts of the body, but the activity of ODH always exceeded that of the other enzymes by far. Muscular activity connected with escape digging or evoked by electrical stimulation resulted in a decrease of stored phosphagen and in an accumulation of octopine. During recovery the normal concentrations of energy-rich phosphates were restored quickly, whereas octopine was removed more slowly. In experimental anoxia only minor quantities of L-and D-alanine, succinate, propionate, and acetate were formed. Quantitatively the most important endproduct was strombine, which rose linearly with the duration of anoxic incubation.  相似文献

Some aspects of the habitat zones, distribution pattern, and population density with reference to tidal levels of the tropical limpet Cellana radiata (Born) are presented. Observations have also been made on the homing behaviour of the limpet. Unlike the temperate limpets, no migration to different tidal levels during different seasons was observed in C. radiata.  相似文献

Tilapia zillii Gervais is recorded for the first time from Suez Bay off the Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries, Ataqa (UAR), during October and November 1965 and 1966. Salinities and temperatures of surface sea water ranged from 42 to 42.79 and 23° to 24.4°C, respectively. The occurrence of specimens of T. zillii in the Bay indicates that it can tolerate high salinities and survive in the sea.  相似文献

The food of 3 feather-stars, Lamprometra klunzingeri Hartlaub, 1890), Heterometra savignii (J. Müller, 1841) and Capillaster multiradiatus (Linnaeus, 1758), from the shallow water of Eilat (Red Sea) was found to be composed of planktonic and semi-benthalic organisms with a strong dominance of zooplankton. Monthly analyses of stomach contents showed seasonal changes in the participation of various systematic units in the diet. Food-comprising organisms were found to be selected according to size, and those measuring up to 400 formed 90% of the diet.This research has been sponsored partly by the Oceanic Biology Branch, Office of Naval Research, U.S.A. under contract N 62558-4556 and contract F 671052 67C 0043 between the Office of N.R. and the Tel-Aviv University. It represents part of the M.Sc. thesis of the first named author (in the framework of Red Sea investigations headed by Dr. L. Fishelson).  相似文献

The present paper deals with ecological aspects of the pulmonate gastropod Siphonaria lessoni (Blainville, 1824), a common member of fouling communities in Mar del Plata's port (38°0817 S, 57°3118 W). Populations on colonized panels of an experimental raft were studied during three annual cycles, to determine feeding habits, growth and various factors which restrict their distribution on floating substrata. Although S. lessoni is harmless as a fouling organism, its grazing on the algal belt clears a part of the substratum's surface, which is then quickly colonized by truly aggressive organisms such as Balanus amphitrite.  相似文献
