武汉东湖短尾秀体溞的种群变动和生产量

测定浮游动物的生产量是水生态系统结构、功能和生物生产力研究中的一个重要环节,通过生产量的测算可客观地评价不同种群对系统作用的大小。短尾秀体溞在我国广为分布,但其生产量在我国尚未见报道,为此笔者测定研究了东湖麦秋季的优势枝角类——短尾秀体溞(Diaphanosoma brachyurum)的种群变化和生产量。在1983—1985年间,这种秀体搔在Ⅰ站的平均种群密度依次为7.67±12.39,11.15±20.58和10.14±11.19个/升;Ⅱ站则分别为7.36±11.07,7.37±16.16和9.69±14.65个/升。最高种群密度Ⅰ站可达95.7个/升,Ⅱ站为70.6个/升。 短尾秀体溞体长与体重(干重)的回归方程为:log W=2.0411logL 0.6462 用累计总增长法测定了这种溞在1983—1985年5—10月的总生产量。Ⅰ站依次为1.193,1.120和1.692毫克/升·年;Ⅱ站则分别为1.029,0.978和1.602毫克/升·年。 短尾秀体溞(5—10月)的P/B系数,1983年Ⅰ站为77.54,Ⅱ站为59.37;1984年Ⅰ、Ⅱ站分别为63.20和50.17;1985年Ⅰ站达78.29,Ⅱ站为71.59。

Redescription of Diaphanosoma dubium Manuilova, 1964 (Branchiopoda: Ctenopoda: Sididae), and description of a new,related species

The poorly known D. dubium Manuilova is redescribed on extensive material from more than 80 populations from the Russian Far East, Central Asia, Mongolia, China, Japan, Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, Bangladesh, India and Sri Lanka. Its morphological variability and geographical distribution are analysed and supplemented by notes on biology. The conspecificity of morphologically different distant populations is discussed. In the northern part of its range, D. dubium was long confused with D. brachyurum or D. leuchtenbergianum, and in the south with D. modigliani. It seems that the recent appearance of D. dubium in fish ponds of Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan was an introduction, together with Far Eastern fish. D. pseudodubium sp.nov., close to but markedly different, is described from two lakes in the lower Amur river system. D. dubium, D. pseudodubium, D. tropicum and D. modigliani s. str. form a group of related species, widely distributed in Eastern and Southern Asia.     

A Study of Diaphanosoma Species (Crustacea: Cladocera) of the “Mongolianum” Group

Material from 49 localities in Europe, Asia and Africa is used to study two similar Diaphanosoma species, viz. D. mongolianum UENO, 1938, and D. lacustris KORINEK, 1981, both of which were described earlier under other names, the most common of which were “D. brachyurum”, “D. leuchtenbergianum” and “D. birgei lacustris”. These species are redescribed in detail, consideration being given to interpopulational and individual morphological variability, the type material, and material from type localities. The morphology of the setae of the swimming antennae is studied in detail, and the author concludes that some of them are not only used for swimming but also perform a sensory function. Some aspects of the biology of the species are described. They inhabit water bodies of different types, are often so abundant that they constitute the main component of zooplankton communities, and are an important link in the trophic chain. Little known cases of the co-occurrence of Diaphanosoma species in a water body are described. Localities known for D. mongolianum and D. lacustris are situated mainly in the temperate and subtropical zones, the former species penetrating farther north than the latter. However, they are also found in the White Nile (Sudan) and Ethiopian lakes. This southward penetration may be connected with the azonal distribution of fluviatile fauna and with the altitude of Ethiopian lakes.     

Two new species of Diaphanosoma Fischer, 1850(Crustacea: Branchiopoda: Cladocera) from the United States

Two new species of the genus Diaphanosoma, D. oligosetum and D. dorotheae, from Louisiana and North Carolina respectively, are described. The former species has large head with protruding dorsal part, large lanceolate spine on the basipodite's distal outer end, an extremely reduced number of antennal setae, up to six in adult specimens, and unique armament of valve margin. On the whole, it shows the pronounced combination of primitive and specialized morphological traits. D. dorotheae is a member of D. brachyurum species group differing from its other known representatives in presence of a small but very conspicuous spine on the end of proximal segment of antennal exopodite and a variable number of setae (seven or eight) on the distal segment of the branch.

Redescription of Diaphanosoma celebensis Stingelin, 1900 (Crustacea,Cladocera)

A rare species, Diaphanosoma celebensis (Stingelin, 1900) is redescribed from type material and material from the South of Vietnam. In comparative morphological aspect it is close to D. volzi, but it is relatively less specialized. D. celebensis is known from single locations in Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Vietnam. It probably also occurs in Malaysia. The size frequency and sex structure of a population from Vietnam is described.     

Postembryonic development in Diaphanosoma brachyurum (Lievin, 1848) (Crustacea: Ctenopoda: Sididae)

Postembryonic females and males Diaphanosoma brachyurum from Lake Glubokoe (Moscow) have 3–4 and 3 juvenile instars, respectively. Females and males of the first three postembryonic instars can be identified by the different number of setae and setal rudiments on the proximal and distal segments of the exopodite of the swimming antennae: 3 + 7; (i + 3) + 7; 4 + (i + 7), respectively (i = rudiment of seta). The subsequent instars have 4 + 8 long plumose setae on these segments, but the fourth instar has the proximal lateral seta of the distal exopod segment slightly shorter and thinner than the others. The antennules and copulatory appendages of males are instar-specific. Diaphanosomas show small increments in body length during the postembryonic molts. The largest increments (about 115 m) occur during the first or second molts. The allometric equation of Huxley (1924) was used for a comparison of the relative growth rate of different body parts. In the middle of summer, the head and swimming antennae with the body and the antennal exopodite with the antennal basipodite grow in isometry. At the same time, the branches of the swimming antennae and their setae show allometric growth: the exopodite and distal setae grow faster than the endopodite and the lateral setae, respectively.     

Redescription ofDiaphanosoma volzi Stingelin, 1905 (Crustacea: Daphniiformes: Sididae) with remarks on comparative morphology,biology and geographical distribution

The rareDiaphanosoma volzi Stingelin, long confused withD. sarsi Richard andD. celebensis Stingelin, is redescribed, based on extensive material of parthenogenetic and gamogenetic females and males from Thailand. Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, India, Australia and Sudan, and a study of intra- and interpopulation morphological variability. Compared with otherDiaphanosoma species, it shows the greatest degree of oligomerization and specialization. It is widely distributed in the tropics and subtropics of the Eastern hemisphere, and mostly occurs in shallow, vegetated habitats.     

Occurrence of Diaphanosoma excisum (Sars) on a sandy beach at Balramgari (Orissa), India

The occurrence of Diaphanosoma excisum (Sars), a freshwater cladoceran, in benthic samples of an intertidal sandy beach is reported. Population density was seasonal. A relatively high density was recorded from June to September (south-west monsoon season) with a maximum (46 ind 10 cm^–2) in September at a depth of 10–15 cm of sediment. A sudden decline occurred during north-east monsoon (October to January), and in the fair season (February to May), the cladocerans disappeared. Mean density varied (P<0.001) with sediment depth and season and showed a contagious dispersion. Abundance was negatively correlated with salinity (r = –0.76) but positively with POC (r =0.79) and mean grain size of the sediment (r = 0.93). The density of D. excisum was highest in fine sand.     

A new species of the genusDiaphanosoma Fischer, 1850 (Crustacea: Daphniiformes: Sididae) from Central Asia and China

Intra- and interpopulation morphological variability, size range, sex structure and geographical distribution are analyzed.
