A New Species

Until now only two species ofCladorhizahave been reported from the SW Atlantic, namelyC. diminutaandC. inversa, despite a total of 39 species reported from various parts of the globe. Here we describe a new species,C. nicoleaesp. nov., dredged from 750 m depth on the continental slope off SE Brazil during the French RV ‘Marion Dufresne’ expedition in 1987. It is an erect, pedunculated and club-shaped sponge, 26 mm high and with 12 radially arranged whip-like projections (each up to 3 mm long). The new species differs from its closest relative,C. inversa(redescribed here), by its possession of sigmas and sigmancistras. The holotype ofCladorhiza inversais also a pedunculated sponge, 1.9 cm tall, with a cup-shaped body with an apical spur-like continuation of the stem and a crown of 16 projections (up to 8 mm long) radiating from the rim of the body.

AbstractThe new species Thyrea porphyrella Schultz, Büdel & Porembski, in the Lichinaceae, is described from tropical South America. It grows on granite inselbergs in SE Brazil and in southern Guyana. Diagnostic characters are the very thin, superficially smooth but conspicuously uneven to folded thallus lobes of reddish-brown to crimson colour.

A New Species

Amphoriscus is a widespread genus with 17 species. A new species was found in SE Brazil and it represents the second species of this genus in Brazilian waters. Amphoriscus pedunculatus sp. nov. has a special structure, a peduncle, to attach to the substrate. Special attachment structures are not very common in the class Calcarea but this is the third species of the genus with a peduncle. Besides peduncle, another attachment structure found in some species of Amphoriscus is the root-tuft, an attachment structure composed of diactines and anchor-like triactines or tetractines. The evolution of these attachment structures in Amphoriscus is not known but they have also been found out of this genus, suggesting that these structures appeared several times during the evolution of Calcarea or that species currently classified in different genera are in fact congeneric.

A New Species

A new species of Nephtyidae, Inermonephtys brasiliensis, is described from material previously referred to I. palpata Paxton 1974 from off São Paulo and Paraná States, SE Brazilian coast. The new species is characterized by interramal branchiae starting from setiger 3, basal papillae starting on setiger 5, and two kinds of lyrate setae. Several lyrate setae occur as a postacicular spiral bundle in both noto- and neuropodia all along the body, showing two different morphologies (i.e., very short or very long tines). Lyrate setae with long tines are the most common, while those with short tines are more difficult to distinguish and may be absent in some parapodia. A redescription of I. palpata is also provided.

Guapira siqueirae is described in the present paper as a new species from the Atlantic Forest of Espírito Santo State (SE-Brazil). This species can be morphologically distinguished from the other Guapira species by the distal portion of the branches, the bases of the petioles and peduncle that are ferruginous-puberulous, the inflorescences with alternate or opposite branches, the lustrous adaxial surface of matures leaves, and the larger anthocarps. A distribution map and comparisons with morphologically related species are also provided.

Megalobulimus dryades sp. nov. is described from the Atlantic Forest in the Vale do Ribeira region, in the states of Paraná and São Paulo, S-SE Brazil, based on morphology. Representatives of the new species with white peristome and glossy periostracum have been misidentified as Megalobulimus gummatus (Hidalgo, 1870) since the 19th Century. The true M. gummatus is revised and redescribed, and its distribution is here restricted to Rio de Janeiro state. Externally, the new species differs from M. gummatus in having distinct protoconch color and sculpture, teleoconch sculpture marked by strong anastomosing rugosities and malleations, and lighter colored white-greyish head-foot. Internally, it presents distinct jaw and radular features, a talon, and a long convoluted penis bearing two flagella. Additional comparisons with other Brazilian congeneric species are also provided.

Species of Mortoniella are revised for the southern part of the South American continent, including the countries of Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina and Chile. The M. velasquezi species group is diagnosed for the first time and the M. bilineata species group is more critically defined. Males of all species from the region, except M. armata (Jacquemart, 1963), are figured, and a key is provided for their identification. Included in the revision are 11 described species and 22 new species. Previously described species that are redescribed and figured include the following: Mortoniella albolineata Ul-mer, 1907; M. argentinica Flint, 1974; M. catarinensis (Flint, 1974); M. collegarum (Rueda & Gibon, 2008); M. guairica (Flint, 1974); M. ormina (Mosely, 1939); M. pocita (Flint, 1983); M. punensis (Flint, 1983); M. teutona (Mosely, 1939); M. unota (Mosely, 1939); and M. wygodzinskii (Schmid, 1958). Mortoniella collegarum, originally described from Bolivia and Argentina, is here reported from Chile, representing the first distributional record of Mortoniella for that country. It is assigned to the M. ormina species group. On morphological considerations, M. argentinica is removed from the M. bilineata species group and left as a species incertae sedis as to species group. Based on its overall similarity to M. argentinica, M. spinulata (Flint, 1991), from Colombia, is removed from the M. leroda species group and left as a species incertae sedis as to species group. New species of Mortoniella described here, followed by their respective areas of distribution, include, for the M. leroda species group: Mortoniella acauda (SE Brazil), M. agosta (SE Brazil), M. asym- metris (Paraguay), M. crescentis (SE Brazil), M. dolonis (SE Brazil), M. guahybae (SE Brazil), M. hystricosa (SE Brazil), M. intervales (SE Brazil), M. latispina (SE Brazil), M. longispina (SE Brazil), M. paraguaiensis (Paraguay), M. parauna (SE Brazil), M. paraunota (Argentina, SE Brazil), M. pumila (SE Brazil), M. pusilla (SE Brazil), M. truncata (SE Brazil), and M. uruguaiensis (SE Brazil, Uruguay); for the M. ormina species group: M. alicula (SE Brazil); and for the M. velasquezi species group: M. bocaina (SE Brazil), M. froehlichi (SE Brazil), and M. tripuiensis (SE Brazil). A new species unplaced as to species group is M. meloi (SE Brazil).
