Aulactinia sinensis, a new species of sea anemone collected from the intertidal zone of Qingdao, Yellow Sea, is describedand illustrated. This species is elongated, becoming plump distally, has circumscribed sphincter, and with 48 vertical rowsof verrucae in upper column, 48 pairs of mesenteries and 96 short tentacles. It is similar in shape to A. capitata Agassizin Verrill, 1864, but distinguished by its smaller basitrichs in tentacles and larger microbasic p-mastigophores in actinopharynx and mesenterial filaments.

A New Species

Anthopleura mariscali, a new species of sea anemone (Actiniaria) known only from the intertidal zone of islands in the Gal pagos Archipelago, is described and illustrated. The column of a member of Anthopleura mariscali is orange to pink, becoming darker distally, and has prominent endocoelic marginal projections, each of which bears an acrorhagus on the oral surface and several verrucae on the adoral surface. Distally, the projections are typically frosted with opaque white patches. Living firmly adherent to the substratum in cracks and crevices, the animal is inconspicuous in life.

A New Species

During 2007, 2008, and 2010, 23 specimens of an undescribed vermiform sea anemone were collected on Punta Pardelas and Fracaso Beach (Península Valdés, Argentina). The specimens have longitudinal rows of cinclides distally, all mesenteries perfect, tentacles hexamerously arranged without acrospheres, column not divisible into regions, no marginal sphincter and no conchula. We describe these specimens as a new species within the genus Harenactis (family Haloclavidae). Harenactis argentina sp. nov. is the second species of Harenactis; it represents the first record of this genus in the southern hemisphere and the first record of a soft bottom-dwelling sea anemone in the Argentine continental zone. Furthermore, we discuss the familial placement and relationships of the genus Harenactis and other athenarian sea anemones.

A New Species

Two small keyhole limpets (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Fissurellidae) were collected live by the senior author and his father (Charles Powell) in the winters of 1967 and 1968 from the side/bottom of moderately flat rocks in the low intertidal zone at Doheny Beach State Park, Dana Point, Orange County, southern California. The larger specimen was collected in the winter of 1968 and the small specimen was collected in winter of 1967. These specimens resemble the genus Lucapinella yet do not quite match any of the known species. The shells are also somewhat similar to Dendrofissurella scutellum from South Africa and two species of Amblychilepas from Australia, however neither of the Dohney Beach specimens can be attributed to those species. This possible new species is assigned to the genus Lucapinella and remains unnamed until additional specimens can be located to determine if they are a new species, a rare exotic species, or a very unusual, miniature L. callomarginata.

A New Species

Abstract Delavalia qingdaoensis, a new species of harpacticoid copepod of the family Miraciidae is described based on specimens sorted from sediment samples collected in Jiaozhou Bay, Qingdao, Shandong Peninsula, Yellow Sea, in May 2008. The new species is easily distinguished from its congeners by the combined characters of the antennulary segments, an apomorphic setal formula of the swimming legs, and the shape of P5 in both sexes. It is remarkably similar to D. bocqueti (Soyer, 1971) and D. latioperculata (Itô, 1981), but it differs from D. bocqueti by features of the caudal rami, antennule, antennary endopod, mandibular exopod, maxillipedal basis, and P5 endopodal lobe; from D. latioperculata by the caudal rami, the inner setae of P1-P4 enp-1, P2 enp-2, and P4 exp-3, and the shape of P5 in both sexes.
