<p>Deep-sea chemosynthetic communities, including hydrothermal vents and cold seeps, harbour hundreds of endemic species currently threatened by deep-sea mining hydrocarbon extraction. The South China Sea (SCS), a semi-enclosed marginal sea with two well-investigated active seeps (Haima in the west Site F east), provides an opportunity to understand biogeography ecosystems. Here, we conducted extensive field surveys using Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) collected specimens for morphological observations, molecular barcoding, phylogenetic analysis, stable isotope analysis. Cluster analyses were applied reveal community structure Western Pacific Northern Indian Ocean. A total 65 covering seven phyla 14 classes have been identified from Haima, doubling number reported previously. Among them, 35 are known only Haima. Stable analysis shows typical chemosynthesis-based biological community. Community at genus level clustered Haima F, though compositions dominance fairly distinct. Between SCS, higher richness endemism potentially due multiple factors, unique environmental factors there geographic isolation northwestern corner SCS. Moreover, similarity between SCS North Ocean was revealed, mediated Early Pliocene opening Indonesian islands strong westward Indonesia Throughflow. Given ongoing gas hydrate exploration activities our results will contribute establishing global network marine protected areas chemosynthetic-based rich biodiversity calls policymakers formulate regulations conserve there.</p>

Abstract Aim Deep‐sea hydrothermal vent habitats support a low‐diversity fauna in which most species are unique to the ecosystem. To inform conservation planning around this vulnerable marine ecosystem, we examine distributions over wide area assess underlying beta‐diversity components and biogeographic patterns. We concept of highly connected that would repopulate areas local extinction from distal locations. Location Western Pacific Ocean Japan New Zealand. Methods assemble database 295 confirmed records for 11 western systems. The SET framework supports query distribution pairwise pattern comparisons among build network based graph theory connectivity systems on shared similarity. A bipartite revealed relative role each linkages system nodes. importance sampling bias distance between Results Overall, two‐thirds taxa restricted single basin or arc. Mariana Trough has highest corrected weighted endemism vent‐specific species, followed by Okinawa Trough. Species replacement is dominant feature beta‐diversity. Eleven form seven modules with stronger Southwest than Northwest Pacific. Manus Basin emerges as ‘hub’ reflecting its central geographic near equator. Main Conclusion Two provinces arise, north south equator few transcend.

The distribution of species among spatially isolated habitat patches supports regional biodiversity and stability, so understanding the underlying processes structure is a key target conservation. Although multivariate statistics can infer connectivity driving distribution, such as dispersal suitability, they rarely explore structure. Methods from graph theory, applied to data, give insights into both pathways by intuitively formatting data network patches. We apply these methods empirical hydrothermal vent habitats Northwest Pacific. Hydrothermal vents are "oases" biological productivity endemicity on seafloor that imminently threatened anthropogenic disturbances with unknown consequences biodiversity. Here, we describe assemblage networks at vents, how local parameters affect their structure, implications for Two complementary were formed an extensive dataset: similarity site nodes linked weighted edges based pairwise bipartite which present. Using networks, assessed role individual sites in maintaining identified biogeographic sub-regions. three sub-regions two outlying separated spatial arrangement environmental filters. Both detected play disproportionately important pathways, while also distinct assemblages These provide historical colonization routes, sub-regional value when selecting conservation and/or estimating multivent impacts proposed deep-sea mining.

A new species of alvinocaridid shrimp is reported, from the Northwest Eifuku hydrothermal vent field at 16191667 m depth on Mariana Arc. comprehensive phylogenetic reconstruction Alvinocarididae based mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene including this reveals paraphyly genus Rimicaris Williams & Rona, 1986 with four other generaAlvinocaridinides, Manuscaris, Opaepele, and Shinkaicarisnested within it. We re-examine material these problematic genera, synonymise them under whose diagnosis has been amended, in order to maintain a monophyletic Rimicaris. Our species, cambonae sp. nov. genetically close loihi (Williams Dobbs, 1995) comb.

Species previously assigned above listed, synonymized genera are also discussed, examined for three key species: R. loihi, acuminata, leurokolos.

Abstract Deep-sea hydrothermal vents host chemosynthesis-based ecosystems inhabited chiefly by specially adapted animals that do not live anywhere else, and depth has been shown to be a major driver of species composition at around Japan. Though the Ryukyu region in southern Japan is home many hot vents, only two – Minami-Ensei Knoll Yoron Hole have found shallower than 1000 m. Here, we report discovery new vent field on Amami Rift northwest off Ōshima 630 m deep. A total 29 macrofaunal were recorded from Rift, including 19 specialists. Comparison across three shallow revealed shared species, highlighting all display distinct community structure. exhibits zonation patterns generally more similar Hole, but presence key taxa such as sulphide worm Paralvinella mussel ‘ Bathymodiolus ’ platifrons well absence symbiotic squat lobster Shinkaia limpet Lepetodrilus exemplify its difference with Minami-Ensei. Furthermore, non-vent specific predators seen these sites completely different. Overall, can considered unique set fauna, warranting future research mechanisms shaping disparate diversity between nearby The unusual geological setting converging point Okinawa Trough Arc may influence fluid chemistry drive differences.

Delectopecten is a small genus of the family Pectinidae (Bivalvia: Pectinida) that remains poorly studied in terms both morphology and phylogeny. Here, we describe first member this from deep-sea hydrothermal vent ecosystems, D. thermus sp. nov., based on morphological investigations molecular analyses specimen collected Higashi–Ensei field (962-m depth) northern Okinawa Trough. Morphologically, new species resembles vancouverensis gelatinosus shell size, shape, auricle size sculpture. However, nov. can be distinguished its congeneric (including 9 extant 12 fossil species) by unequal auricles (the anterior one being larger than posterior), inwardly recurved left valve large byssal notch angle ~90°. Comparisons genetic sequences three mitochondrial nuclear gene fragments supported placement Delectopecten. Further phylogenetic using these markers support monophyletic positioned as an early diverging clade Pectinidae. Additionally, mitogenome was assembled annotated, for – revealing significant divergences order compared to other pectinids. The 16S rRNA amplicon analysis gill tissue indicated vent-dwelling scallop does not exhibit symbiosis with chemosynthetic bacteria. A key all known provided aid identification understudied genus.
