Pawson The Committee for Common and Scientific Names of Invertebrates (CCSNI) of the American Fisheries Society (AFS) has as its main purpose the preparation and- publication of authoritative lists of common and scientific names of aquatic invertebrates. Lists of decapod crustaceans and mollusks have been prepared, and are going to press. I have been asked to lead a group of specialists in the preparation °f a list of ec.hinoderm names for the American continent north of Mexico, within 200 miles of the coastal margin (to a depth of approximately 200 meters), including coastal islands, but excluding the West Indies. I am not sure exactly how difficult this all will be; there are surely more than 1,000 species-names involved. Apparently, typical entries in the finished list will look something like this: Flagrante delicto (Hendler, 1999) . . A . . . The fun star of Uconn Lawrencia jangouxi (Anon, 1999) A ... The star of Balkema Chrispaulia andrewsmithi (Britmus, 1999) . A . The theoretical star (In the above entries, the letters "A" and ."P" stand for Atlantic and Pacific) .

Although we have enjoyed the freedom associated with the lack of a society we have not enioyed benefits that a society provides. The topic will be discussed at the Victoria conference. 7 FRIENDS OF ECH 1 NODERMS : Will convene at the Annual Meeting of the American Society of Zoologists, 27 December 1986, Nashville Disposal of reprint collections Many of us have gathered together large collections of echinoderm reprints, sometimes supported by card indices or computer-based retrieval systems. Because collections can rarely be accepted nowadays by libraries, however specialized, the saleable portions are often dispersed of through secondhand booksellers following retirement oT death. Considerable effort has often gone into the curation of such collections, and some workers may well prefer to see them passed gratis to a younger worker just starting out. In this way the collection and' its data base can be kept together, and hopefully continue in use for many more years. Have colleagues any suggestions as to how contacts can best be made?

Shallow-water hydrothermal vents in the Kuril Islands Members of the Institute of Marine Biology of the Far East Science Center of the USSR (Vlad ivostock) discovered shallow-water hydrothermal vents in the summer of 1985. An account of their observations can be found in: Tarasov, V.G., M.V. Propp, L.M. Propp, S.V. Blinov, and G.M. Kamonov. 1986. Shallow hydrothermal vents and a unique ecosystem of Kraternaya caldera. Mar. Biol. (Vlad.). (2), 72-74. The vents occur between the intertidal and 20-m depth. Bacterial mats cover the surface. Sulfide and reduced sulfur compounds are found in the water. Asteroids, echinoids, and holothuroids are present. 8 (A portion of this commentary by Peter Voogt was omitted in Newsletter 1 a. The entire text is given here.) RESEARCH: SOLITARY OR JOINT EFFORT? The last two decades have shown an explosive increase of the number of papers on echinoderms. Moreover, also the number of investigators working on echinoderms and that of topics studied have increased. This expansion of echinoderm research, resulting in a strong increase of data, has caused loss of overview for most Investigators. However, a number of them, particularly those studying typically molecular aspects do not need or want this overview. This holds good also for a second category of investigators, who are primarily process- interested : they study basic processes (such as oocyte maturation or spermatogenesis) and just use echinoderms as well-suited test objects. These cell biologists fit in their results Into the data known from other species and can arrive at a good integration of knowledge. Besides there is a third category of scientists who are interested in echinoderms per se. They, for example, do not study the process of reproduction as such, but reproduction of echinoderms; more generally processes in which the total animal Is Involved. This organsimal physiology requires an Integration of knowledge on several levels as morphology, metabolism, interorgan transport, and regulation by external or internal factors. However, this Integration has gradually become nearly impossible, which Is clearly illustrated by the fact that twenty years ago the larger part of our knowledge on echinoderm physiology could be collected In one book ("The Physiology of Fcbinodermata" , Boolootian, R.A., ed.). An update of this book would yield now a multivolume work, each volume dealing with one topic as has been done for nutrition in "Echinoderm nutrition", edited by M. Jangoux and J.M. Lawrence. This development has made scientists increasingly dependent on reviews and summarizing lectures during conferences. In this respect the International Conferences on Echinoderms have provided for clearly existing needs. Further, scientists are more and more conscious of the "tight" junction" between morphology and physiology. Morphology should extrapolate towards function, and explanations of observed phenomena in physiology should be based also on morphological features. However, most scientists are trained in only one of the two ways of approach. Therefore they like to present their work to a forum of colleagues with expertise in the same, adjacent or complementary fields of research. The International Conferences on Echinoderms have fulfilled this informing end also accounting function. The increasing number of attendants clearly shows the need for information and consultation, but unfortunately made It necessary to assemble in parallel session. Yet It remains a pity that only work that already has been dene s.s presented, so that criticism of the work or valuable advicee are too late. Also the tendencies of decreasing average numbers of workers in a research-team (as a result of the worldwide economic recession) and of the increasing requirements in subsequent evaluations of research, force scientists to plan their research carefully. Duplications should be avoided and advices of colleagues should be obtained during the design of experiments . 9 These considerations result In a plea for adding to the functions of the International Conferences on Echinoderms at least an extra one, namely that of being starting point and, figuratively spoken, uterus for vell-p] anned research projects. In these projects other research groups could participate in doing those parts of the work for which their special expertise is needed, or by planning and performing interrelated ' experiments. This will grestly stimulate the contacts between -investigators and research-teams, resulting in exchange of ideas and techniques, and in stages in each others lab. It will also lead to ..higher efficiency in research, a well -structured gathering of data with an increase cf integrated knowledge. Furthermore several foundations highly appreciate collaboration in research and are willing to subsidise such projects. Finally I would like to adstruct this with an example: From the Brussels echinoderm colloquium on, there has been an intensive collaboration between the lab of Dr. Ch.V. Walker, University of New Hampshire , and my. lab. -This included several visits of workers of these labs to each ether (made possible by a NATO grant) and resulted among others in two Ph .D . theses . In one of these theses Dr. F. Smith, New Hampshire University, postulated an interesting hypothesis: Reproduction in male -starfish is triggered by environmental conditions (for example photoperiod), this signal is integrated In the nervous system and leads to the release of (a) neurohormone (s) , which influence(s) steroid metabolism: changes in steroid levels affect poly amine metabolism and these pclyamines control gonocytc mitosis. This is an attractive hypothesis, with several steps each of which can be tested. However, who or which research-group is able to do, this? Yet we know that to the regular attendants of the Echinoderm- Conferences belong scientists which are experts on photoperiodicity, or anatomy and morphology of the nervous system. There certainly are attendant s which are able to examine the nervous system for neurohormonts (it Is too bad, that twenty years after the discovery of GSS we still, have no idea about other neurohormones in echinoderms!), there are others who can study steroids and polyamines and their effects on metabolism. Only by forming bipartite or tripartite collaboration groups such an hypothesis can be tested . Of course this was only one example, but It clearly illustrates the present state of research. Maybe a coordinating function on behalf of the "International Confeieiices on Echinoderms" (which is not a Society) will be very helpful to reach to what is my conclusion: Research today will be effective cnly by a joint effort!

This is a tale which began in August, 1985, while Dr. Frank Rowe was visiting the National Museum of New Zealand in Wellington, to examine echinoderm collections for species common to New South Wales (Australia) and New Zealand. Frank also wished to complete, with Dr. Alan Baker, a paper on Tasman Sea echinoids, and discuss with Dr. Helen E.S. Clark, a study she is making of Tasman asteroids. We did achieve those aims but not before stumbling across perhaps the most astounding extant echinoderm yet found! The 9 specimens of this unusual creature were taken from lumps of wood collected from the sea-floor off New Zealand in 1000-1200 m. Mr. Bruce Marshall (NMNZ) has been making a special study of gastropods living on that substrate. During his examination of waterlogged wood, Bruce was very careful to remove any whole or parts of other animals besides molluscs. These included some interesting echinoderms such as Caymanostella and Ophiambix . Hence the new animal was found by Frank in vials containing Caymanostella . The nick-name "sea daisy" was subsequently coined by Alan because of its general dorsal shape, and to avoid use of unpublished scientific names. Helen and Alan were in or about at the time of the discovery of the sea-daisies. We all became very excited, to say the least. That we did, indeed have an echinoderm - it had a plated calcite skeleton with asteroid/ophiuroid-like plates on its dorsal surface, it had tube-feet (but these were arranged circumferentially rather than in radiate fashion), and its body was definitely pentamerous - was clear. The significance of the find was, therefore, immediately apparent. Wild ideas ensued. How did the tube-feet become circumferential? What about the wvs? What were its relationships? When the initial excitement died down we started finding other significant structures, including juveniles in the gonads or bursae, velum and associated structures and a hydropore. Frank recalled an early drawing by David Nichols of what a cyclocystoid might have looked like. We were then struck by the superficial resemblance of our sea-daisy to those fossils. However, more recent interpretations of cyclocyst oids by Andrew Smith and Chris Paul have scotched any ideas we might have entertained of a living fossil from that stock! Before we could get much further with our ideas Frank had to return to Sydney. We split the material and Frank took three specimens back with him, two of which were sectioned at Sydney University (with the co-operation of Prof. Don. T. Anderson). Alan and Helen continued to study the skeletal plates and soft parts by dissection. Alan traced the wvs from the hydropore to an internal circumferential ring and had a model made of one of the ring ossicles 15 on the under side of the animal. Frank, meanwhile, beavered away interpreting the internal anatomy from the sections, finding the external nerve and water ring and the connections to the tube-feet below the ampullae . He also worked on the derivation of the animal’s shape, skeletal arrangement and wvs . In February, 1986, Frank returned to Wellington for final discussions and preparation of a manuscript which was published in Nature (Baker, A.N., Rowe, F.W.E. and Clark, H.E.S. 1986. "A new Class of Echinodermata , based on a new genus and species", Nature , 321 , 862-864. We are now preparing a more detailed account, which will include SEMs of the skeleton, photomicrographs of the histological sections, and an elaboration of our ideas on the derivation, origin and relation- ships of the Class. We will also discuss the interpretations of the cyclocystoids made by both David Nichols and by Chris Paul and Andrew Smith, in the light of our understanding of Xyloplax . We believe this significant and fortunate find gives us a possible insight into the adaptive morphology of both living and fossil forms. The medusiform shape of Xyloplax would, however, appear to be novel in echinoderms. None of us ever dreamt that a discovery at this level would come our way. For Frank and Helen, it is fortuitous timing, as it coincides with their 25th anniversary of echinoderm research. F.W.E. Rowe Allan Baker Helen E.S. Clark Cartoon communicated by F.W.E.

As you can see from my curriculum vitae I have had some experience with the group. The position will enable me to continue my studies of this fascinating group. I have done extensive field work and feel that I could bring another perspective to this study. Recently I have had some rare and privileged insights to the evolution of this group. I am frequently arguing with my colleagues here about evolution so I am well versed in the arguments proposed by fundamentalists. Between ourselves there are a lot of fundamentalists here. As I was saying to Dr. Darwin the other day some of them think that they had a personal stake in this creation bit! I hope you will consider my application and I look forward to hearing from you.
