A New Species

Acanthemblemaria aceroi new species is described from the upwelling region of the Caribbean coasts of Venezuela and Colombia. It differs from its closest relative, Acanthemblemaria rivasi Stephens, 1970, known from Panama and Costa Rica, in the posterior extent of the infraorbitals, details of head spination, and unique COI sequences. The description of Acanthemblemaria johnsonsi Almany & Baldwin, 1996, heretofore known only from Tobago, is expanded based on specimens from islands offshore of eastern Venezuela.

Shape And Size

A new species of the harpacticoid copepod genus Esola is described from specimens collected in Rodadero Beach, on Gaira Bay, on the Caribbean coast of Colombia. The species, E. wellsisp. nov., is described, illustrated, and com­pared with its congeners. Esola wellsisp. nov. differs from its known congeners in details of the armature of legs 1–4. It most closely resembles E. bulbifera (Norman, 1911) in the armature formula of P1–P5 but differs from the latter in several respects, including the female antennule segmentation (7-segmented in E. bulbifera but distinctly 6-segmented in E. wellsisp. nov.) and in the shape and size of the male P3ENP2 apophysis, among other characters. This is the second species of the genus known from the Caribbean and the second record of Esola in the Northwestern Tropical Atlantic. The genus now contains eight species. A key to the known species of the genus is also included.

A New Species

Armatoplana colombiana n. sp. (Polycladida: Stylochoplanidae), a new species of acotylean flatworm from Colombia, is described. A. colombiana is characterized by 6–8 fleshy, anterior knobs, short nuchal tentacles, tentacular and cerebral eyes. A strongly muscularized, interpolated prostatic vesicle and a penis armed with a very long stylet places the species into the genus Armatoplana. The female reproductive system is characterized by the presence of a Lang’s vesicle and a sinuous vagina with rigid walls. Type material is deposited at the Museo de Historia Natural Marina de Colombia INVEMAR under INV-PLA 0019 and INV-PLA 0020 HS.

A New Species

The purpose of this note is to describe a new species of the hydrozoan Eudendrium found during an ecological study at the coastal lagoon Bahía de Chengue, near the city of Santa Marta, Colombia (Alvarez-Leon et al., 1995). Colonies of 6–16 cm height were collected between September 1982 and March 1983, up to 0.6 m deep. As of February 2016, this species was still present in the region. They grow on stilt roots of the red mangrove, Rhizophora mangle, in the lagoon channel, and near the opening of Cienaga Grande de Santa Marta estuary. This species is similar to the more common Caribbean Eudendrium carneum Clarke, 1882, but differs in the morphology of female and male gonophores. Voucher material is deposited in the Senckenberg Museum in Frankfurt, Germany (SMF) and in the Makuriwa-Museo de Historia Natural Marina de Colombia at Instituito de Investigaciones Marinas y Costeras—INVEMAR, Santa Marta (INV-CNI).
