The Echinoderms Newsletter^

No. 4. December 197

Prepared in the Department of Invertebrate Zoology (Echinoderms),
National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Washington,
D. C. 20560 U.S.A.

During the past year, we have spent much of our spare time in
organizing the Echinoderms Conference, which was held in this Museum during
early September, Since September, we have tried to catch up with the many
things we had neglected; one of these was the Newsletter.

The present Newsletter contains the usual sections, including current
research projects, recent publications, recent theses, requests, and
additions and corrections to the Directory of Specialists. As always, we
urge you to complete and return to us the last page of this Newsletter
(see p.32).

literature, and should not be cited, abstracted, or reprinted as a
published document.

. Notes and News

Most of you will be aware that the First International Congress of
Systematic and Evolutionary Biology will be held in Boulder, Colorado on
August 4-12, 1973. The latest brochure (ICSEB Brochure No. 2) states that
if ten or more scientists have a common interest they will be given a time
and place to meet on an informal basis during ICSEB. Those willing to
organize such special interest sessions are asked to contact Dr. Doris
Love or Dr. David Rogers, University of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado, to
make a reservation.

Perhaps some may wish to discuss some aspects of echi noderm evolution
or biology at ICSEB? If you desire, we can help with some aspects of the
organizing through the Newsletter— please contact us if you feel we can help.

YouMl have to move quickly— the deadline for applications to Colorado is
March 1 .

The Second Inter-Congress of the Pacific Science Association will be
held at the University of Guam on May 20-25, 1973. The Marine Laboratory
of the University of Guam will sponsor a symposium on Biology and Ecology of
the Crown-of-Thorns Starfish, Acanthaster planci . Those interested in
attending should write to Dr. L . G . El dredge, Chai rman , Organizing Committee,
Second Inter-Congress , University of Guam, P. 0. Box EK, Agana, Guam 96910,
U.S.A. The deadline date for pre-registration is February 15.

Suggestions, Requests, etc.

B RUN - does anyone know a simple, effective method of individual marking of
live starfish for growth and migration studies.

CHESHER - lists of echinoderm works which are currently on 16 mm microfilm

are available on request. Asteroid and ophiuroid papers are principally
key systematic works for world-wide identification. In echinoids, all
subjects except larval and egg physiology are covered.

FELL, F. J. - would like to examine material of Spatangus from the western
and central Pacific.

HESS - is interested in papers, reports or observations on population density
of recent stalked crinoids.

LAWRENCE - has prepared a 15-page annotated bibliography of articles dealing
with relationships between echinoids and algae (ecology, food,
reproductive cycles, covering reaction, etc.). It consists of
approximately 90 titles. Dr. Lawrence has generously made the
bibliography available for distribution to interested specialists.

Copies of the bibliography can be obtained direct from Dr. Lawrence
at a cost of $0.55 (to cover copying and postage).

SCURRY - would like to learn of Jurassic localities in England and/or
Normandy from where collections of the cassiduloid echinoid
Nucleol ites can still be made,

STANCYK - would be interested to learn of success in reliably inducing
spawning of ophiuroids.

MUSEUM OF COMPARATIVE ZOOLOGY, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts
02138 - has for sale some back issues of papers published in their Memoirs,
Proceedings, Bulletin and Breviora. These include many works by
A. Agassiz, H. L. Clark, and others on all groups of echinoderms. If
you are seriously interested in purchasing any of these reprints (the
prices are reasonable), please address enquiries to the Publications
Office.
