v.20:no.2(1970)

Nova espécie de ouriço do mar capturado na baía de Sepetiba (cassiduloidea, Echinoidea)

C. delectus sp. n., found in Sepetiba Bay, characterizes by the following peculiarities: ovoid outline; apical system slightly anterior; petals with 2-4 interplates and 3-4 interporiferous primary tubercles. The pits in the naked median space are: 20 pits in 10 mm. Test low (height by length 0,45).

Madurez gonadal en el "Erizo Rojo" Loxechinus Albus (Molina, 1782) (Echinoidea, Echinidae)

El ciclo reproductivo de Loxechinus albus "erizo rojo" (Molina,1782), fue estudiado durante los meses de setiembre y octubre de 1996 en la zona de Atico; y desde febrero de 1997 hasta febrero de 1998 en la zona de Pisco, para la cual se midieron un total de 2266 individuos para determinar las variaciones de la estructura de tallas de este recurso. Así mismo se utilizaron un total de 724 individuos para el muestreo biológico de los cuales 312 eran hembras y 306 fueron machos , siendo de estos 106 individuos indiferenciados; colectados al azar provenientes de los desembarques de la pesca artesanal de ambas zonas . Se propone una escala de madurez gonadal consistente en 5 estadios para cada sexo , la cual se interpretó sobre la base del análisis histólogico de las gónadas,las cuales fueron relacionadas con la temperatura superficial del mar; determinándose así la estación reproductiva con los distintos periodos de evacuación de gametos.

Comportamiento de homing en el erizo cachero, Arbacia lixula ("Echinodermata: Echinoidea")

[ES] Se estudia la capacidad de retorno del erizo Arbacia lixula a su refugio original después de haber sido desplazado 0,5, 1 y 2 m. sobre un sustrato rocoso. La capacidad de retorno disminuyó con la distancia de alejamiento al punto original, demostrándose que esta especie tiene ciertas capacidades de homing.

v.50:no.1 (1927)

Report on the Echinoidea collected by the United States Fisheries steamer "Albatross" during the Philippine expedition, 1907-1910 ...

At head of title: Contributions to the biology of the Phillippine archipelago and adjacent regions.

A sea urchin (Diadema africanum Rodriguez et al., 2013) and a pipe fish (Syngnathus phlegon Risso, 1827) : two new records for the Azores

Maciel & Costa (2010) reported the presence of 17 species of costal sea urchins (Echinoidea) in the Azores, while Porteiro et al. (2010) reported six species of pipefishes (Syngnathidae) for the area. During SCUBA diving at Santa Maria Island, the first author detected a sea urchin and a pipe fish which are new to the marine fauna of the Azores.

Innate immune response in the sea urchin Echinometra lucunter (Echinodermata)

Echinometra lucunter, (Pinda) is a sea urchin encountered in the Brazilian coast and exposed to high and low temperatures related to low and high tides. Despite their great distribution and importance, few studies have been done on the biological function of their coelomocytes. Thus, Echinometra lucunter perivisceral coelomocytes were characterized under optical and transmission electron microscopy. Phagocytic amoebocytes in the perivisceral coelom were labelled by injecting ferritin, and ferritin labelled phagocytic amoebocytes were found in the peristomial connective tissue after injecting India ink into the tissue, indicating the amoebocytes ability to respond to an inflammatory stimulus. Results showed that the phagocytic amoebocytes were the main inflammatory cells found in the innate immune response of E lucunter. While other works have recorded these phenomena in sea urchins found in moderate and constant temperature, this study reports on these same phenomena in a tropical sea urchin under great variation of temperature, thus providing new data to inflammatory studies in invertebrate pathology.
