How is marine biota formed on a remote, oceanic, volcanic island? Trindade and Martin Vaz (TMV) are younger (3.5 and 1.5 million years old, respectively) than the adjacent continental shelves (~80 million years old), so their coastal fauna is composed of migrants that settled after cooling: Atlantic American and African, amphi-Atlantic, insular, circumtropical and endemic species. On a re…

Narcissia trigonaria Sladen, 1889, was described based on a juvenile specimen from the coast of Bahia, Brazil (Sladen, 1889). The use of juvenile specimens exclusively in the description of new species generates a series of difficulties linked, in short, to the great morphological variations that occur during an Asteroidea ontogeny. In the case of N. trigonaria, because it is the original…
Currently, the order Dendrochirotida comprises about 800 species, being half of these within the families Sclerodactylidae and Phyllophoridae. Regardless, most information about these families is from old morphological reviews (Phyllophoridae in 1954; Sclerodactylidae not reviewed). Once the limits between Sclerodactylidae and Phyllophoridae are not well defined, the validity of the forme…
True freshwater brachyuran crabs account for about 1300 species worldwide. There are two families of true freshwater crabs in the neotropics: Trichodactylidae and Pseudothelphusidae. Currently, pseudothelphusids comprise 40 genera and about 280 species and subspecies in 2 subfamilies and 5 tribes. The tribe Kingsleyini Bott, 1970, includes about 50 species and subspecies in 12 genera, who…
