As the number of scientists working on echinoderms is not large, a journal or society to facilitate communication has never developed. Thus the founding of the Echinoderm Newsletter in 1968 by David Pawson and Maureen Downey of the Smithsonian Institution was an important contribution to progress in echinoderm biology. David noted in the first newsletter "We believe that the newsletter should be helpful in providing an informal means of communication between specialists." His belief was well founded as the issues over the years have provided not only information itself but have led to interaction and collaboration of echinoderm biologists. Let us recognize this anniversary with joy! John Lawrence 4 .

(University of South Florida) with Stephen Watts, James McClintock and Anne Boettger (University of Alabama at Birmingham) El Nino mortalities of the starfish Luidia clathrata and the sea urchin Lytechimis variegates in the eastern Gulf of Mexico, 1998. Heavy rains during the spring of 1998 have diluted the sea water resulting in mortality of Luidia clathrata in Tampa Bay, Florida. L clathrata has been monitored in Tampa Bay since 1967. It has survived past decreases in salinity to 16-17 o/oo resulting from typical summer rains. In spring 1998 El Nino associated rains decreased the salinity to 14 o/oo salinity in shallow parts of the Bay to ca. 3 meters, resulting in elimination of the population. Although dead and dying individuals were seen, it is possible others may have migrated to deeper waters. Luidia clathrata continued to be found in the Bay at depths of 5 meters or more. High amounts of fresh water into the shallow bays near the Florida panhandle cities of Port St. Joe and Panama City killed large numbers of Lytechinus variegates . Immigration has resulted in some re-population, but many of these individuals show evidence of spine loss and subsequent spine regeneration. This mass mortality of echinoderms resulting from decreased salinity is similar to that noted near Caracas, Venezuela several years ago.

I can be contacted at the Mowing address: 7794 Cloverfield Circle, Boca Raton, Florida 33433, USA Dora Jesus - would appreciate literature on the genus Schizaster (Echinoidea) living, Mediterranean Sea and Atlantic Ocean, especially taxonomic. K. Emily Knott - 1 am hoping to collect sea stars in the Cape Verde Islands and possibly the Canary Islan some time during the next year. If you have had some experiences collecting m these areas, please send me email atkeknott@life.bio.sunysb.edu I would love to talk to you. . Also I am still collecting any EtOH preserved or frozen sea star tissue for molecular work to help my efforts in producing a comprehensive asteroid phytogeny. I you wish to make a donation to my cause, contact me at kcknott@life.bio.sunysb.edii. Thanks! Richard Magsino - 1 am working on the population genetics starfish, Lincfda laevigata. I would like to contact researchers working on the population genetics of starfishes or any other echinoderms using protein altazjme electrophoresis and other DNA-level genetic markers (e.g. mtDNA RFLPs). My samples came from the South rtitna Sea region in the Southeast Asia. Please contact rickym@msi01.cs.upd.edu.ph rtirig Mah - 1 am always interested in obtaining asteroid material from deep-sea Central Pacific and Indian Oceans, Especially brisingidans, forapulates and gorriasterids. Please contact cmah@cas.calacademy.ong Ahig.il Moore - 1 would like to have contact with anyone with experience in - attempting regulation (by concensus, enforcement or a mixture) of holothurian exploitation, especially "on the ground , working with fishing communities, not just desi gn i ng regulations. - artisanal pen-culture of juveniles, especially working with communities with low economic and educational status. - improving returns to fishing communities (post-harvest mainly) - education programmes for coastal communities - collection of local enviromental knowledge I would also like to contact anyone with similar types of experience or interest based on any tropiral coastal species, not just holothurians. I am very keen to pursue options for reconciling the wnservatton of biodiveraty with the needs of coastal human populations. My immediate concerns are based m Sulawesi, Indonesia, but many of the challenges are common throughout the Indo-Padfic and often beyond. Parks etc can only be an op^nfor a minority of the vast areas involved, if only because of the costs of both setting up and nm^ them. I feel that low-cost low-tech largely local resource based approaches need to be found, which could affordablyand realistically be applied more widely than Marine Parks. Hence the plot project I am involved in - which is sttil at a preparatory stage. Please contact abigailmoore@hotmaiLcom 66 MIC Ram Mohan - seeks references on reproductive biology, induced maturation and cross fer tilizati on of echinoderms, also triploid or polyploid studies. Payikat Sahadevan Asha (Tuticorin, India) requests reprints on the induced maturation, spawning and asexual reproduction in holothurians. Tahera, Q. - would appreciate any publication on echinodenns related to taxonomy, systematics, reproduction, larval distribution and biodiversity. ☆ ANNOUNCEMENTS # Giudice, G. - organized an “ICRO” theoretical-practical course on “sea urchin eggs and embryos as model cells” which was held in Oristand, Sardinia, Italy (International Marine Centre) from September 17 - October 1, 1997, to which 1 8 people from 14 countries participated.

John Lucas, James Cook University, Australia I began to study echinoderms due to a villain. My story goes back to the late 60s and early 70s when I was a new lecturer at James Cook University in northern Queensland. My PhD at University of Western Australia had been on various aspects of the biology of an insignificant group of spider crabs. It involved experimental studies on their ecophysiology. Thus, when I was appointed to JCU in 1968, 1 went there with plans to research crustaceans of the Great Barrier Reef. My plans were soon dashed. It was only possible to get out to the reefs nearest to Townsville by a 3 hour boat trip and these boat trips were organised by a shell-collectors’ club. The trips only went out in winter months on days of spring low tides (to enable the shell -collectors to walk on the reef at low tide) and they only went out in calm weather. I waited through months of cancelled trips, due to bad weather, before I got out to the Great Barrier Reef. The coral reef community that I saw was overwhelming in beauty and complexity. It did not seem possible to take any component and research it in a sensible fashion. Thus, I gave up the idea of working on crustaceans of the GBR and looked to working on the intertidal crabs of the local mangroves (more than 40 crab species). Then along came Acanthaster planci, the Crown-of-thoms starfish, “eating its way southwards” along the GBR in the late 60s. The late Dr Robert Endean, who was always prepared to give a strong opinion, stirred up public concern through the media. There was sufficient public concern about this villainous starfishes’ threat to the GBR that Queensland government funds were made available for research into its ecology and coral damage. By chance, I became involved in a minor way with the Queensland government group that was researching the starfish. Although the larvae of Acanthaster were totally different to those of the crustaceans that I had previously worked with, I offered to have a go at rearing these larvae and was successful. There they were: tiny 5-armed starfish that subsequently grew and added arms. Federal government funding was allocated for research on Acanthaster and I had a head start in the competition for funding with my experience of researching the early lifecycle. I then started from the hypothesis that the high fecundity of this starfish is the source of “plagues” in combination with environmental factors that strongly influence the survival of the initial tens of millions of eggs and larvae. Hence I engaged in a senes of laboratory studies on the lifecycle of Acanthaster and environmental factors influencing the vanous stages. The problem of 83 access to the GBR was solved through obtaining enough funding to hire a small fast boat to go out to the reef according to my needs for starfish. The problem of identifying a manageable research topic was solved by the villain. Ultimately, I teamed up with the eminent echinodermologist, Dr. Chuck Birkeland of University of Guam, to produced a book, “ Acanthaster planci : Major Management Problem of Coral Reefs”, CRC Press. We complemented each other’s interests, in that Chuck’s interests were primarily in field studies while mine were primarily in laboratory studies. Unfortunately, the book did not become an international best seller (probably its price ensured that it was strictly in the category of a library purchase). The Crown-of-thoms starfish is still a “villain” in the destruction that h causes to many coral reefs in the Indo-Pacific region. We now know a lot about its biology and ecology, but there are still fundamental questions about the “plagues” that remain unanswered. These big questions are now in hands of the newer generation of coral reef ecologists and echinodermologists. Ram Mohan M.K. (MRC of CMFRI, Tamilnadu, India). After completing the course work of my PLD. program, I was fortunate to be put under Dr. D.B. James, the eminent Echinoderm specialist, to work on Echinoderms. At that time I had very limited knowledge of echinoderms, particularly confined to starfishes. Later we were asked to give two credit seminars as a part of our program, for which I selected the topics on holothurian resources and reproductive biology of some holothurians seen in Ind i a While preparing for these seminars I had a fair amount of reading on not only holothuroids but also echinoderms in general. Slowly but steadily I developed an interest in the group. At CMFRI, Cochin and also during my brief stay at Tuticorin, I came across a good deal of literature, which gave me more insight into the characteristics of echinoderms, particularly taxonomy, diversity and reproductive features. At present I am doing my research on reproductive biology of holothurians. There is only one word which comes to mind when I think- of echinodenns - ‘Namasthe’ (the Indian equivalent for Salute). 84 Payikat Sahadevan Asha. (T.R.C. of CMFRI, Tuticorin, India). During my post-graduation, I was not having much idea on sea cucumbers. After that I got through the Agriculture Research Service as a scientist in C.MF.R.I. I was in Fisheries Environmental Management Division and was very much eager to know about the projects allotted to me. After one month I got the transfer along with the projects allotted. I was surprised to know that I have to work under an eminent Senior Scientist Dr. D.B. James. I was very much enthusiastic to collect much information about sea cucumbers. After my pr eliminar y discussion with Dr. James, I came to know that my knowledge is very poor, and I have to work a lot. When I started working, I could understand that the echinoderm - sea cucumber is an interesting animal group both economically and experimentally and it is the responsibility of all to conserve them as a scavenger of marine environment. Robert Singletary (University of Bridgeport, Connecticut) In the late 60’s I was a new graduate stuedent in Hilary Moore's laboratory. At that time the research focus was on the autoecology ofthe animals that made up the benthic co mmun i t y of Biscayne Bay. While many of the animals in the community had been studied, no one had tackled the most abundant animals, the brittle stars. Therefore, I naively decided that would be a fruitful research area. I soon found out why these animals were avoided, the brittle part of their name was their most impressive characteristic. It seemed that all you had to do was look at these animals and they would break apart. Additionally, we were in Miami, Florida, within easy reach of coral reefs, and the animals I chose to study lived in the muddy bottoms of turbid Biscayne Bay. Still the research was rewarding, and I was able to visit the reefs to obtain comparative information. I also learned what fascinating a nim als echinoderms are and I continue to marvel at them. 85 ft CONFERENCES AND MEETINGS ft (By Country or Region) AFRICA Conand, C.

Long a Professor at the University of Uppsala, he had been awarded an honorary doctorate at the Sorbonne in 1954. His experimental work on what was called developmental mechanics, since the time of W. Roux, was famous. Echinoderm eggs and sea urchin embryos have long served as experimental models essential for our understanding of the mechanisms of fecundation and early development of metazoans. Following notably Boveri and Driesch, Sven Horstadius carried out a remarkable series of experimental procedures showing the evolutionary possibilities of cell lines from isolated blastomeres, or from combinations of blastomeres of different regions of very young morulae. He showed, among other things, the inductive role of micromeres on the blastomeres destined to form the vegetative plaque and the archenteron. Sven Horstadius carried out his experimental work using the marvelously precise techniques of microdissection with needles and of in vivo staining; this enabled him to correct certain erroneous interpretations by Driesch. He interpreted the results of his own experiments, in agreement with J. Runnstrom, in considering that two important gradients of opposing substances extended from one extremity to the other of the egg’s primordial axis. These substances, respectively “animalizing” or “vegetalizing”, would affect the differentiation of a “harmonious” larva by their relative quantities. In his studies of development of the sea urchin egg, a “regulated” egg , Sven Horstadius called attention to what would later be called negative inductive interactions. This work is still topical, as in the recent research of the Americans E. H. Davidson, R. A. Cameron, R. J. Hardin and others, all based on the quantity and quality of Horstadius's experimental results. The “double-gradient” hypothesis is challenged by Davidson, who has studied the expression of molecular markers specific for embryonic tissue, the activity of transcription system of the genome during egg segmentation, and the determination or specificity of the parent or founder cells of cell lines. Davidson proposes a new explanation of the development of the sea urchin: he suggests that the specification of the founder cells for the cell lines giving rise to the five polyclonal territories of the blastula must depend, among other elements, on the utilization of maternal factors localized according to the primordial axis of the embryo. Writing these lines, I am reminded of the researchers who occupied what was known in RoscofF as the “Swedish table”, everyone in the group from the Wenner Gren Institute of Experimental Biology in Stockholm, animated by J. Runnstrom and the teaching staff of the University of Uppsala, who came regularly to RoscofF between 1946 and 1956, and among these. Per Eric Lindhal accompanied by the young Bertil S wed mark. It was during this period that Sven Horstadius published his more physiological findings, those on anim a li zi n g and vegetalizing substances, with Trygve Gustafson, and those conducted with J. F. Danielli and I. J. Lorch on the effects of the enucleation of eggs. At that time, Sven Horstadius was a very well-known man, physically squared -off, almost stiff. Thanks to the counsel of Bertil Swedmark, I discovered, behind that classic facade of a “University Professor,” a very subtile man, attentive and smiling, who even knew how to set off student applause by his transformation into a remarkable mime at a party given at the “Hotel de la Marine". What the embryologists and the regulars at marine research stations didn't usually know, was Horstadius’s real passion for photography and birds: he was one of the founders of the World and Wildlife Fund. Fifty years have passed, and biology has undergone a complete mutation. Many biologists famous in their time are already almost forgotten. The name of Sven Horstadius remains brilliant, so strongly has his work marked die biology of development.

This issue con- tains contributions from the various fields of sea cucumber biology and fishery, arranged as in the previous issues. The number of mem- bers is still increasing, and we hope that the new members will con- tribute to future issues. Since the last issue, the highlight has been the symposium devoted to echinoderm fisheries and aquaculture during the International Echinoderm Conference, which was held in San Francisco in August 1996 . The abstracts are presented here (see p. 26) and the papers will be published in 1997 by the editor AA Balkema (Rotterdam). The increase in overexploitation, now spreading to many coastal zones of the tropical East Pacific is one of the issues discussed. An original approach is also being carried out in a traditionrval exploitation country — Madagascar — in the context of a regional pro- gramme (Commission de l'Ocean Indien (COI), GICZ). To achieve sustainable exploitation of this fragile resource, the exporters have decided to organise the profession (see p. 4). Several contributions update the state of the fisheries, as in Tuvalu (see p. 2), California and Washington State (see p. 11 and 12), Torres Strait reefs (see p. 17), In the rubrique 'Asexual reproduction by fission' new observations are reported for the first time on the species Holothuria leucospUota (see p. 5) which had been previously cited as reproducing only sexually. A new rubrique on aquaculture could also be prepared (see ICLARM results in the Solomon Islands, p. 3). We are looking forward to your suggestions and contributions.
