Campagne Rythnic 07/05/1980 - 15/05/1980: résultats des chalutages pour l'étude des variations nycthémérales d'abondance des espèces démersales de Côte d'Ivoire

As explained in the title, this campaign aimed to assess the diurnal vertical variations in abundance of demersal species off the Côte d'Ivoire

Importance de certaines caractéristiques biologiques dans la structuration génétique des espèces de poissons: le cas de Ethmalosa fimbriata et Sarotherodon melanotheron

Six populations of Ethmalosa fimbriata and six of Sarotherodon melanotheron have been analysed using enzymatic electrophoresis. The study of gene flow intensity in these two species indicate that: - In Ethmalosa fimbriata, a migratory species with high fecundity and pelagic eggs, there is a high gene flow between populations (3 Nm 83). - In Sarotherodon melanotheron, a sedentary and mouthbrooder species with low fecundity, there is a low gene flow between populations (1 Nm 4).

Notes sur quelques poissons d'espèces nouvelles ou peu connues des eaux douces Cambodgiennes

The ichtyological research, conducted in Cambodia from 1938 to 1939 by the Oceanographic Institute, has greatly enriched the Indochinese freshwater wildlife inventory. 40 new species for Indochina were harvested. They have been divided into 12 families and 30 genera, 12 new species for Indochina. The 7 completly unknown species described in this note are: Clupea (Alosa) Thibaudeaui, Xenocheilichthys Loppei, Cosmochilus Pellegrini, Kryptopterus Cheveyi, Pangasius altifrons, Cybium cambodgiensis, Synaptura krempfi.

Note additionnelle sur les espèces de Chlorodopsis (Brachyures)

The present paper completes the authors’ studies (1958) on the species of Chlorodopsis of Viet-Nam. It gives observations on the new specimens collected previously and of a new species. It exposes the results of the observations on specimens communicated to the authors by the Museum of Paris, the Indian Museum of Calcutta and the Bishop Museum of Honolulu. These specimens include the syntypes of Chl. melanochira and Chl. Woodmasoni and some samples of another species not yet recorded on the Viet-Nam seashores. The taxonomic position of various species is revised and species maintained by Balss (1938) in the genus Pilodius are included in the genus Chlorodopsis. The authors give a new key to separate all the species of the genus Chlorodopsis.

Observations sur les premiers pléopodes males d'espèces d'Actea (Brachyures) du Viêt-Nam

Few observations on the first male Pleopode of the genus Actea are available. Examining the possibility of using their characteristics for a taxonomic work, the authors expose the obtained data on the subject and describe the Pleopods of 18 species of Actea collected on the Viet-Nam seashores. A tentative to define the different types of Pleopods gives a new argument to consider and recognize the genus Banareia as a distinct genus of Actea.

Les espèces de Carpilodes (Brachyura-Xanthidae) du Viêt-Nam

The authors have identified 18 species of the genus Carpilodes, collected on the Viet-Nam sea shores; three species and one variety are new. A key for the identification of the thirty species and two varieties of the genus is associated with the description of the new forms. The pleopods 1 of the male for the great part of the species identified in Viet-Nam sea shores are figured.
