About the Book

In July 2001 experts from all around the world met in Reykjavik, Iceland to discuss various issues of polychaete biology. In particular the latest developments in cladistic inference of polychaete phylogeny were presented. Some studies applied recent molecular techniques, revealing unknown genetic relationships between the different families of polychaetous annelids. This volume is of interest to specialists and students seeking an introduction to the latest developments in the field of systematics and ecology of polychaetous annelids. This book is one in a series presenting results from the International Polychaete conferences.

Table of Contents:
Taxonomy, Systematics and Evolution.- Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and light microscopy (LM) study of important characters in the identification of Sigalionidae (Annelida: Polychaeta).- Horizontal distribution pattern of the syllid fauna (Annelida: Polychaeta) in the fringing reef lagoon of Anse Forbans (Seychelles, Mahé) and redescription of the abundant Streptosyllis aequiseta.- Three new interstitial dorvilleids (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Cymodocea nodosa meadows of the Canary Islands.- Two new species of polychaetes from the sublittoral bottoms off Antofagasta, Northern Chile: Clymenella fauchaldi n. sp. (Maldanidae) and Mooreonuphis colosensis n. sp. (Onuphidae).- A new species of Chaetozone (Polychaeta: Cirratulidae) from deep water in the northeast Atlantic, with comments on the diversity of the genus in cold northern waters.- Snowflakes and feather-dusters — some challenges for soft-bottom fanworm systematics.- Species of Litocorsa (Polychaeta: Pilargidae) from the Indian Ocean and South China Sea.- Opheliidae (Polychaeta) from the Southwestern Atlantic ocean, with the description of Travisia amadoi n. sp., Ophelina gaucha n. sp. and Ophelina alata n. sp..- Designation of a neotype of Marphysa sanguinea (Montagu, 1813) and a description of a new species of Marphysa from eastern Australia.- Two new species of an atypical group of Pseudobranchiomma Jones (Polychaeta: Sabellidae).- Live history evolution in Serpulimorph polychaetes: a phylogenetic analysis.- Myzostomida from Madagascar, with the description of two new species.- Phylogenetic relations among spirorbid subgenera and the evolution of opercular brooding.- Inter-population variability and character description in the sponge-associated Haplosyllis spongicola complex (Polychaeta: Syllidae).-The Magelonidae (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Seychelles, with the description of three new species.- Problems in polychaete systematics.- A new genus of Syllidae (Polychaeta) from Western Australia.- Siboglinid evolution shaped by habitat preference and sulfide tolerance.- Morphology.- Functional morphology and feeding behavior of Streblospio benedicti and S. shrubsolii (Polychaeta: Spionidae).- Morphology and ultrastructure of the anterior end of Diplocirrus longisetosus Marenzeller, 1890 (Flabelligeridae, Polychaeta, Annelida).- Novel aspects of the nervous system of Bonellia viridis (Echiura) revealed by the combination of immunohistochemistry, confocal laser-scanning microscopy and three-dimensional reconstruction.- Ultrastructural studies of dorsal ciliated organs in Spionidae (Annelida: Polychaeta).- Chaetae and mechanical function: tools no Metazoan class should be without.- Palp morphology in two species of Prionospio (Polychaeta: Spionidae).- Comparative study of the diaphragm (gular membrane) in Terebelliformia (Polychaeta, Annelida).- Ecology and Larval Biology.- Identification of adults and larvae in Spiochaetopterus (Polychaeta, Chaetopteridae): consequences for larval transport and recruitment.- Ecological aspects of syllids (Annelida: Polychaeta: Syllidae) on Thalassia testudinum beds in Venezuela.- Using indicator species to assess the state of macrobenthic communities.- Abundance and diversity patterns of annelids from intertidal sandy beaches in Iceland.- Response of polychaetes to oil spills in natural and defaunated subtropical mangrove sediments from Paranaguá bay (SE Brazil).- Changes in pelagic Polychaete assemblages along the California current system.- Distribution and diversity of the Syllidae (Annelida: Polychaeta) from the Mexican Gulfof Mexico and Caribbean.- Recent advances in the use of meiofaunal polychaetes for ecotoxicological assessments.- Particle size selection in individuals from epifaunal versus infaunal populations of the nereidid polychaete Neanthes succinea (Polychaeta: Nereididae).- Bathymetric distribution and diversity of deep water polychaetous annelids in the Sigsbee Basin, northwestern Gulf of Mexico.- Radiocarbon dating and metal analyses of ‘fossil’ and living tubes of Protula (Annelida: Polychaeta).- Polychaete community structure of the northwestern coast of Mexico: patterns of abundance and distribution.
