<p>The species <em>Scolelepis finmarchicus</em> sp. nov. is described from the Norwegian and Barents Seas along the northern Norwegian coast and Kola peninsula. The occurrence of this species in the Kola Bay could be seen as a sign of climate warming in the area. Taxonomic issues existing in the genus <em>Scolelepis</em> within the area along the Norwegian coast and in the Barents Sea are briefly touched upon. Seven species belonging to <em>Scolelepis</em> have recently been recorded from the Atlantic sector of the Arctic. <em>Scolelepis</em> (<em>S</em>.) <em>matsugae</em> Sikorski, 1994 is newly synonymized with <em>S</em>. (<em>S</em>.) <em>laonicola</em> (Tzetlin, 1985). This article provides a brief review of <em>Scolelepis</em> together with an identification key for the genus from the Atlantic sector of the Arctic</p>

A new species of epilithic diatom is described from samples collected near Elephant Island, Antarctic Peninsula. The cells of Melosira brandinii sp. nov. are joined in filamentous chains and attached by means of long mucilaginous stalks. The valves are circular with the valvar surface composed of irregularly arranged pentagonal Ioculi. Each loculus bears 6-12 pores on the external surface, opening to the innerside through rotae. The corona is only composed of coarse granules. A mantle is well developed, presenting rimoportulae and bearing coarse granules, which are more concentrated at the mantle edge. Comparisons with the related species Melosira arctica, M. moniliformis and M. nummuloides are made. Additionally, photomicrographs of M. arctica from the type material and Barents Sea, and of M. moniliformis from estuaries of Southern Brazil are included.

A New Species

The introduction of a new species to the Barents Sea raises questions as to the rights and duties of states under the law of the sea to exploit, manage and conserve the species. This paper discusses three of them. The first question is whether the snow crab qualifies as a sedentary species. The entitlements and competence of states in respect of living marine resources depend on the location and the characteristics of the species. If it qualifies as a sedentary species under the law of the sea, it is subject to the sovereign rights of the coastal States. Otherwise, it is subject to the sovereign right of the coastal States as well as the freedom of fishing, dependent on its distribution. The second question is what, if any, obligations Norway as a coastal State has in respect of conservation and management of the snow crab and how Norway is complying with these obligations. This includes a discussion of whether the snow crab qualifies as an introduced, alien species and the possible implications for the obligations of the coastal State. The area of distribution of the snow crab includes waters within 200 nautical miles off Svalbard, raising a third question as to the implications of the 1920 Treaty concerning Spitsbergen (Svalbard Treaty) and in particular whether fishing vessels of Contracting parties have the right to participate in the harvest on an equal footing with Norwegian vessels. The Norwegian Snow Crab Regulations effectively reserves the harvest of snow crab for Norwegian fishing vessels. The paper discusses the implications of a recent decision by the Norwegian Supreme Court on dismissal of an appeal by a Latvian vessel and its captain convicted for illegal harvest of snow crab within 200 nautical miles off Svalbard.

A New Species

New data on morphology of 7 pennate diatom species from the order Cymbellales found in subpolar meromictic Lake Mogilnoye, are presented. A new species, Rhoicosphenia murmanica Gogorev et E. Lange, sp. nov., is described. Its frustules are 13–40 μm long, 3.5–6 μm wide, 4–9 μm high and have 16–20 striae per 10 μm on the convex valve and 14–18 on the concave valve. The new species is characterized by a variable length of diminutive raphe branches on convex valve (1/6–1/3 of valve length). R. murmanica is similar to R. adriatica, R. baltica, R. marina and R. omblaensis in size of valves and number of striae, but differs in valve outline, number of striae, or width of valves. All the species are found for the first time in the lake. Cymbopleura frequens is recorded in the first time for the flora of Russia; four taxa, Encyonema minutum, E. silesiacum, Geissleria acceptata and Placoneis clementioides are recorded for the first time in the flora of the Murmansk Region.

A taxonomic review of the genus Anatoma Woodward, 1859 in the Eurasian Arctic seas is presented. The new species A. golikovi sp. nov. is described from the northwestern part of the Barents Sea. The species differs from all other Arctic and North Atlantic Anatoma in having a flat spire. We consider Anatoma schioettei Høisæter et Geiger, 2011, syn. nov., a junior synonym of A. crispata (Fleming, 1828). Anatoma schanderi Høisæter et Geiger, 2011 is recorded for the first time from the Siberian seas.

Hermania indistincta (Ohnheiser et Malaquias, 2013) comb. nov. is recorded for the first time for the Barents Sea and the Russian marine fauna. Based on the morphology of the studied specimens the diagnosis of the genus Hermania Monterosato, 1884 is emended. The taxonomic significance of the spiral shell sculpture in the genus Hermania is discussed.
