The new species Ampithoe bizseli from the west coast of Turkey is described. It can be distinguished by a circular ischiumlobe on gnathopod 2 in the male sex from the similar species Ampithoe ramondi where this lobe is slender. Ampithoe bizseli n. sp. appears to occur also on the coast of Tansania.

A New Species

Lampetra macrostoma n.sp., a freshwater parasitic lamprey, is distinguished from related species L. tridentata, L. lethophaga, L. folletti, L. minima, and L. similis by its parasitic habit and very large disc. Other characters distinguishing the species from L. tridentata are its longer prebranchial length, large eye, weakly pigmented velar tentacles, and its ability to remain in freshwater. The recently metamorphosed form readily survives in freshwater and probably is non-anadromous even though it can survive in salt water. The new species has been discovered in two lakes on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, where it attacks large numbers of resident salmonids. Because of its ability to survive and feed in freshwater, it poses a definite threat to freshwater fishes.Key words: lamprey, new species, non-anadromous lamprey, salmonid parasitism

Living Species

Two new deep-living species of the genus Bargmannia (Siphonophorae, Physonectae, Pyrostephidae) are described based, almost exclusively, on the nectophores of single specimens collected by ROVs off the west coast of California. The nectophores of B. stenotes sp. nov. were relatively small, up to 11.4 mm in length and, in the preserved condition had very narrow nectosacs. There was a marked bend in the distal part of the preserved nectophore, resulting in the ostium opening upwards. The mature nectophores of B. profunda sp. nov. were almost twice as long as those of B. stenotes and were characterised by the fact that the lower lateral ridges did not join, distally, with the meso-lateral ones. This feature also was present in smaller nectophores of B. amoena but those of B. stenotes, at that stage, did not have a mouth-plate.

Acrobeles fananae spec. nov. is described from two localities on the west coast of South Africa. The new species is characterised by body length of 0.7-0.8 mm; relatively slender, cylindroid body, abruptly ventrally bent in vulval region; vulva with protruding lips and situated in a sunken area; three incisures in lateral field; and cuticle with an intricate interlocked block-like pattern. Additional data is presented on the morphology of Seleborca complexa (Thorne, 1925) collected in the same area.

A New Species

The collection of Actiniaria and Zoantharia made by the Scottish National Antarctic Expedition contains nineteen species, one of which, Porponia antarctica Carlgren, I described as a new species in 1914. In all there were six species from the Antarctic, three from the Falkland Islands, six from the west coast of Cape Province, three from the Cape Verde Islands, and one, not specifically determined, from Gough Island. The new species here described are Epiactis vincentina, Epiactis brucei, Sicyonis antarctica, and Palythoa vincentina. I have not thought it necessary to compile a complete list of the literature and synonyms of the species, since in the papers cited full information is given.

A New Species

Peniculus asinus, a new species of copepod parasitic on Sebastes (Pisces: Teleostei) off the Pacific coast of Canada is described and illustrated. The copepod is an unique member of its genus in that it possesses cephalothoracic holdfast processes. The discovery of a Peniculus with these processes is taken as evidence confirming the place of this genus in the family Pennellidae.
