Pycnogonids in the genus Colossendeis are found in the deep sea and Southern Ocean. Although the genus contains the largest and most conspicuous species of sea spiders, little is known about their ecology or behavior. We documented two species feeding on a variety of benthic and pelagic invertebrates during three diving field seasons at McMurdo Station, Antarctica. Individuals of one species, Colossendeis megalonyx, fed on a variety of pelagic organisms, particularly the pteropod Clione antarctica. We used video to document rapid capture of individuals of C. antarctica by captive specimens of C. megalonyx in the laboratory, and we suggest that, at least in the nearshore environment, pelagic invertebrates are an important food source for this and potentially other pycnogonid species. 相似文献

Tactile stimulation of the wings (parapodia) of actively swimming Clione limacina results in inhibition of swimming and retraction of the wings. Electrophysiological evidence suggests that wing mechanoreceptors have central cell bodies and wide innervation fields in the ipsilateral wing. Scanning electron microscopy of expanded wings reveals ciliary cone processes arranged in a pattern that is similar to the electrophysiologically‐determined innervation fields of wing mechanoreceptors. Transmission electron microscopy suggests that the ciliary cone structures are terminal processes of neuron‐like cells. Three‐dimensional reconstructions of serially‐sectioned terminal processes indicate that cell bodies are not found in the wing epithelium or immediately under the epithelium, further supporting the notion that the wing mechanoreceptors have central cell bodies. 相似文献
