CONTRIBUTIONS TO A BIOLOGICAL SURVEY
OF SANTA MONICA BAY, CALIFORNIA
Introduction
The purpose of this report is to record the results
of bottom sampling in Santa Monica Bay between 1952 and
1956, and to evaluate the analyses of these samples in
terms of organic productivity by systematic faunal units.
The analyses are believed to approximate the ecological
associations of animal populations as they exist in
nature. Values of comparative biomasses are expressed
in terms of varying horizontal and vertical distances
from the effluent outlets. The major faunal units are
identified and their affinities noted with those of
adjacent and more distant areas. In Santa Monica Bay,
six biological zones are recognized. Each supports a
characteristic fauna differing primarily for depth of
sea-floor, nature of sediments, and varying with distance
from the ends of effluent pipes. The more abundant or
conspicuous faunal categories are named for each zone,
resulting in about 500 specific entities.
About 150 measured bottom samples were taken from
selected parts of the bay. They are in the range of
stations numbered 2148-52 to 4451-56, made by the VELERO
IV. Most samples were quantitative and taken with a
2 1/2 cubic foot orange peel grab. Others were taken
with a larger (5-6 cubic foot) Campbell grab, a biological

dredge, a beam trawl, and baited lobster traps. A few
animals were snagged on hydrographic lines. The quanti-
tative samples differed in volume from a fraction to
five cubic feet, or 1.67 cubic meters. These variations
were mainly because of differences in depths and kinds
of sediments, with the greatest variations being from
shallow hard-packed bottoms.
The concentration of samples from shallow areas in
the vicinity of the Hyperion outfall, and along the shelf
bordering the upper end of Santa Monica Canyon, was to
more intensively study patchiness and present conditions
along paths that a series of new outfall lines may occupy.
Description of the Area
The benthos of Santa Monica Bay is a northward
continuation of the San Pedro area and shares many of
its biological characteristics. Both embayments have
a similar shallower (to 300 feet) and deeper (to 1500 feet)
shelf, a slope (to 2250 feet or more ), and a deep or
subsill basin (to 2940 feet). The faunal groups consist
of similar categories, and differ mainly in the numbers
of their occurrence because of physical differences.
The San Pedro area is traversed by a channel through
which a strong current flows and its bottoms, therefore,
Support some associations which are sparse or not rep-
resented in Santa Monica Bay. The presence of submerged
mountains (the Lasuen Seamount and Six-Mile Bank at either

basinal
side of its southern sill, and two similar mounts at
either end of the northern sill) account for some gross
differences. Its sediments are more diversified and have
many rubbly slopes. In their deeper parts these slopes
have associations of glass sponge which are sparse or
lacking in Santa Monica Bay except in scattered patches
along the outer slopes of Santa Monica Canyon, The
shallower submerged slopes, continuous with the Palos
Verdes Hills, have an unusually diversified and abundant
benthonic fauna which in amount is unparalleled in any
other area of southern California, Although the specific
categories occur in other regions where currents prevail,
their quantities are much diminished,
The sea floor of Santa Monica Bay is divisible into
six faunal zones, numbered I to VI (May 7, 1956 report,
p. 13), Zone I refers to the broad, shallow shelf
‘extending west from Hyperion; II refers to the shallow
triangular area between Redondo and Palos Verdes Hills,
and west to the outer end of Redondo Canyon; III refers
to the northern shelf of Santa Monica Bay to depths of
330 fathoms; IV refers to Santa Monica Canyon, and V
refers to Redondo Canyon. In Figure 1 is shown their
locations and the serial arabic numbers for zones III,
IV, and V. Those for zone I are more completely detailed
in Figure 2,
The shallower bottoms of Santa Monica Bay are populated
mainly by animals existing within the sediments which

are muddy, sandy, or mixed. The sea floor appears smooth
and nearly barren (Figure 3), but the presence of in-
numerable small hillocks, holes, and other irregularities
verify the existence of an abundant fauna which consists
mainly of different kinds of smaller metazoan animals.
An occasional five-rayed shallow depression is made by
an Astropecten, and the slender erect sticklike projections
are tubes of phoronids, onuphids, or the stiff stipe of a
sea whip.
Animal associations of rocky or gravelly areas are
limited mainly to the upper slopes of Santa Monica Canyon,
as in the outer regions of Zone I. Macrokelps, which
require shallow rocky surfaces for attachment of the
stipe, are mainly restricted to the northern areas of
Santa Monica Bay. A small triangular area (Zone II)
between the upper end of Redondo Canyon and the Palos
Verdes Hillis, supports a diversity of kinds of animals
in unusual concentrations. The broad sandy shelf and
Slopes of the western and northwestern end of Zone I
have concentrations of brittle stars requiring quiet
water. The bottom of Redondo Canyon below 300 feet
(Zone V) is overlain by muddy sediments which support
unique associations of animals having their greatest
known concentrations in this place. The fauna of Santa
Monica Canyon, below 300 feet (Zone IV) resembles that
of Zone V, but is more limited and dispersed. Analyses
of samples from these bottoms are given in the Appendix.

The broad flat shelf extending west from Hyperion
to the upper end of Santa Monica Canyon (Zone I) comprises
85 to 90 square miles, It can be divided into faunal
areas expressed in terms of distance from the outfall.
Six faunal groups are named, each with west (I W), south-
west (I SW), and northwest (I NW) sectors. The boundaries
as noted in the report of May 7, 1956 are retained except
that the outer fringe of the Limited-Enriched-Fauna in
I W has been moved west about a fifth of a mile to encompass
all of the stations in the I W-12 sector (Figure 2). This
fauna, as well as the adjacent Unlimited-Diminished-
Fauna, have been more completely sampled since the last
report was issued.
Methods and Equipment
The samples taken with the Hayward orange peel grab
were screened on board ship through sieves of which the
finest measured 24 meshes to the inch, bottled in suitable
containers, and fixed with formalin added to seawater,
As soon as possible thereafter the samples were trans-
ported to the laboratory where cleaning and analyses
were done (Hartman, 1955). Because of these collecting
methods, many smaller metazoan animals (especially smaller
crustaceans, worms, mollusks and others) were undoubtedly
lost. However, the counts of animals were high in spite
of such unmeasurable losses and the species are believed
to be characteristic of the areas investigated.

The grab was usually filled when soft fine-grained
bottoms were sampled. In rocky bottoms it was less suc-
cessful, so either a biological dredge or a trawl was
used to obtain qualitative measures, Volumes of indivi-
dual grabs varied most in shallow water where sediments
were hard packed. Thus, differences from nearby stations
varied as much as 300%, For example, in sector I W-12c
at station 4325 with a medium to coarse green glauconite
sand bottom, 1.88 cubic foot was recovered, and in
I W-19a at station 4329 in silt and sand, 0.06 cubic
foot was recovered.
Baited lobster traps were used in the vicinity of
the outfall to lure foraging animals not easily taken
by other means. At first, traps with copper and brass
fittings were lowered and found unsuccessful, perhaps
because of repellant metallic ions leached into the
seawater. Another time the entrance of the trap had
been clogged by a crab too large to enter or escape,
so that the entrance of other kinds of animals was impeded.
Other traps recovered various foraging animals such as
crabs, flounders, and snails, and smaller associated
animals,
Beam-trawl fishing (Zone II-5) was incidental except
for the catch of certain kinds of fishes from water over
a shallow sandy bottom.
Some human factors are probably reflected in the
sorting and analyses of the samples, which were done
10
by the writer. As the work progressed, it was obvious
that an increasing number of kinds of animals were being
recognized, partly because many animal species lie in
tubes or burrows made by other kinds, or are covered with
debris, or occupy various sheltered nooks not easily
seen, (Analyses were usually made with the aid of a
dissecting microscope.) Such was the case with many
small tubicolous animals, Monobrachium, a commensal
hydroid on small bivalves, an unknown flabelligeriid
found in considerable numbers in dead shells of Cadulus
(tooth shell), commensal and parasitic animals associated
with host species, and other kinds. In time, therefore,
it may be necessary to review all of the earlier samples.
This can still be done since most have been preserved.
Fortunately, experiences Paninied from SHEE OE studies
in the San Pedro area, where many animals are the same,
made the recognition of most species simpler.
Emphasis on the importance of annelids from the
start might have beefi due to interests on the part of the
investigator. However, it is believed that this group
will loom the largest in mass productivity and diversity
to anyone who will examine the samples, and that they,
together with the ophiuroids and the smaller though poorly
known entomostracans, are the most important constituents
in the bottoms investigated.

Faunal Affinities
Ecological
The benthonic fauna in Santa Monica Bay has its
closest affinities with that in the adjacent San Pedro
area, The kinds and numbers of species are somewhat
higher in the San Pedro embayment because of its greater
diversity of physical features. It also supports many
species requiring currents, such as the large associations
of Chaetopterus (polychaete), Ophiothrix (brittle star),
and gorgonian corals which flourish in abundance near
Whites Point; the large beds of Tagelus ( jack-knife
clam) just outside the Los Angeles breakwater, and the
siliceous sponge associations along the steep slopes
of submerged mountains. These, and other kinds, are
Sparse to absent in the Santa Monica area. Undersea
gardens of macrokelps with their rich associations of
animals both in the protecting canopy above and in the
sediments below, which abound in great numbers along the
leeward shores of Santa Catalina Island, are present
near Malibu in Santa Monica Bay, but much less extensive.
The outer basins (Catalina, Santa Cruz, San Clemente,
and others) off southern California have been found
(Hartman, unpublished) to have many different kinds of
animals not present in the near shore basins (San Pedro
and Santa Monica). The densities in the outer basins
(mass productivities) are, however, much lower except in
places where nutrients are supplied from outside sources

(as at Catalina Harbor on the outer side of Santa Catalina
Island). The absence from, or sparsity in, the inner
basins suggest that the species have different temperature
requirements, either as larvae or adults,-.or that there
are competitive factors which may be selective.
The most abundant animals in the shallower bottoms
of Santa Monica Bay are various kinds of polychaetes,
smaller crustaceans (entomostracans) and ophiuroids.
Others which may be present in abundance at scattered
places are various types of mollusks, sipunculids,
echiuroids, a stalked brachiopod, nemerteans, and other
animals, most of which lie partly or wholly buried in the
sediments.
Those in shallower depths are small in size, exceedingly
numerous, and perhaps have short life spans. Those in
moderate depths tend to be larger in size, fewer in numbers,
and are more diversified, The deepest bottoms (in the
basin) are impoverished or dead,
The dominance of one or two species over extensive
areas, such as has been described from shallow bottoms
of western Europe (Danish authors), from Puget Sound
(Shelford and associates), from Long Island Sound (Sanders),
and other places, has not been observed in either the
Santa Monica or San Pedro areas. Instead, populations
exist in patterns much like a patch-work design, with
irregular or unpredictable recurrences and in various
kinds of associations A few species have been more or

less constantly associated with certain kinds of sediments.
Such are the epifaunal Chloeia pinnata (an amphinomid
annelid) and the tubicolous Pectinaria californiensis
(the cone worm) on sandy or silty bottoms and in shallow
to fairly deep water. Ampharetids (Amphicteis, Amage),
Maldane, Nothria pallida and some terebellids are associated
with soft muddy bottoms in shallow to greater depths.
Species of Glycera, Ampharete, Onuphis nebulosa,
Phyllochaetopterus prolifica with attached Scalpellum
(stalked barnacle), Pherusa capulata, Isocirrus planiceps,
and some other kinds are most frequent in mixed bottoms,
especially where coarse sand or gravel prevails. Rocky
bottoms support such attached forms as solitary coral,
Corynactis (an anemone), various attached serpulid worms,
and crevice or nestling kinds as chitons, various other
mollusks, and scale worms. Some of the rocky areas of
the upper end of Santa Monica Canyon show evidence of
former colonies of pholad mollusks, for which occupants
have not been recovered. These rocks are now inhabited
by borers of smaller dimensions such as sipunculid, a
smali clam, Saxicava arctica, a sabellid worm, Hypsicomus,
and others. In deep water, wood may be penetrated by
another boring mollusk, Xylophaga.
Near effluent outlets, the kinds of bottoms have
largely determined the kinds of animal associations.
In coarse, mixed bottoms with little or no current, as
at Hyperion, the conspicuous animal is Diopatra ornata.

Where currents occur, as at Whites Point, it is Chaetopterus
variopedatus with Ophiothrix spiculata. In sandy or muddy
bottoms it is Nothria elegans, and where bottoms are
mixed with gravel it may be Glycera or Nephtys species.
The most flourishing population of Diopatra ornata
has been found close inshore near Malibu Point. It is
adjacent to macrokelps on which it may depend for its
food and tube=-building materials, The densest colony
of Chaetopterus is at Whites Point, This species feeds
by secreting a mucus mesh in which it captures various
microorganisms as they are swept along with the currents.
The preponderance of a few families of animals is
noteworthy. The onuphids are well represented with
Diopatra ornata, usually in coarse sediments near shore
or near outfalls, and Nothria elegans occurs in finer
bottoms at similar levels. In deeper waters, these are
replaced by Onuphis nebulosa, QO. vexillaria, Diopatra
tridentata, or others. The maldanids, represented in
shallow waters by Praxillelila and Axiothella are replaced
in other areas by Maidane in soft bottoms, and by Isocirrus
in gravelly bottoms. Among the chaetopterids, Chaetopterus
is tolerant to effluent and requires currents; Phylio-~
chaetopterus prolifica requires mixed bottoms and thrives
in a wide range of vertical depths; Telepsavus occurs
in shallow fine sandy sediments; Mesochaetopterus is in
soft deeper bottoms, and another kind of Phyliochaetopterus
occurs in subsili depths of the basins.

Among the glycerids, Glycera americana is predominantly
present in mixed bottoms in shallow water. It gives way
to G, capitata in finer sediments and deeper water; to
G. tesselata at moderate depths, and to G, branchiopoda
at deepest levels, Other kinds of systematically-related
animals have shown similar patterns of replacement with
differences in depth and kinds of sediments. In Santa
Monica Bay, such species are in the spionid, magelonid,
cirratulid, paraonid, nephtyid, goniadid, and other family
groups.
The enteropneusts (acorn worms) are noteworthy for
their occurrence in shallow to deep areas. Members of
the Spengellidae are represented by no less than three
species, and the Ptychoderidae by one or more. Saccoglossus
of the spengellids occurs in shallow soft bottoms, and
Schizocardium (with perhaps more than one species) has
been found in depths of a few feet (in Zone II) to about
2300 feet on the Palos Verdes slope. Stereobalanus has
a Similar wide vertical range, and the ptychoderids have
been found in shallow area (Woodwick, in Hartman, 1955).
Faunal Affinities
Geographical
Santa Monica Bay belongs to the temperate east
Pacific faunal subdivision, or the Californian Province
(Ekman, 1953, pp. 151-156), which reaches north to about
42° north latitude (near Cape Mendocino, California). At

its southern range it extends to Lower California or
western Mexico. It is said to be characterized by a
southern submergence, which means that species existing
in shallow waters to the north, occur at greater depths
farther to the south (southern and Lower California),
because of gradually rising surface temperatures.
Furthermore, the endemic (native) element in the temperate
fauna of the North American Pacific Ocean is believed
to be developed to the extent that endemic species
constitute at least half of all species in the various
animal groups. These conclusions were reached from
studies based largely on hard=-shelled mollusks, echinoderms,
and fishes coming mainly from parts of central California
and northward. Applications to southern California is
therefore limited except to deeper waters, because the
surface temperatures are much higher, In the basin
systems of southern California there are perhaps barriers
of unknown quantities and kinds, and in Santa Monica
Bay there are additional variables resulting from possible
effects of pollution, It is difficult, therefore, to
find parallel studies, In the best studied groups of
metazoan invertebrates (mollusks and echinoderms) there
are many specific names, referrring to geographic locations
of southern California, which suggests that these species
are endemic to these places.
Some comparisons were made with quantitative samples
taken from shallow bottoms near Acapuico, Mexico (collected
bt “mingo lta »paeetnuge eh al
17
February 1955 by Jens Knudsen), These showed the presence
of some species identical with those in southern Calif-
ornia. Many more were lacking from one or the other area,
and still others, including the annelid genera, Aglaurides,
Chaetacanthus and Hesione, were well represented in the
south, but absent in southern California. Cerianthid
anemones were abundant and large at Acapulco, but small
or of another kind in Santa Monica Bay.
Quantitative studies made in the Puget Sound area
of Washington by Shelford and associates (1935) named
many species occurring in shallow (to 105 feet) unpolluted
level bottoms. The study was based largely on hard-
shelled mollusks, many of which do not occur in Santa
Monica Bay. A complex system of classification was
described. Some species were called biome prevalents
or predominants, others were slow moving influents. There
were characteristic species and faciations, and intere-
actions of coaction and reaction kinds. The Puget Sound
area was described with broad expanses characterized
by the dominance of one or a few kinds of species, with
clear boundaries existing from one expanse to the next.
One restricted area in East Sound, with bottoms in 60
to 105 feet, was investigated with a small Petersen
bottom sampler which took samples from a tenth of a
Square meter. The sediments were then screened through
a 0.20 mm mesh. From 14 such samples, 68 metazoan
invertebrate animals were identified (Weese, In Shelford

pp. 316-318). Of these, 45 were various kinds of poly-
chaetes, 20 were mollusks, and 3 were echinoderms.
Allowing for changes in systematic nomenclature, about
half of the polychaete species are the same as those in
Santa Monica Bay, and the other half may be kinds limited
to more northern or colder waters. The ratio of poly-=
chaete numbers to total individuals counted, in various
depths was given as follows: 5016:5276; 36:266(a clam
bottom); 6:104 (a clam bottom); 2058:26833 84:205 (a
snail bottom); 165921993; 129421368; 45:1454 (a holothurian
bottom); 35:562 (a holothurian bottom); and 39:132 (an
echinoderm bottom). From this analysis it will be seen
that mollusks are limited to shallower, echinoderms to
deeper bottoms, and polychaetes are prominent in all
depths. Smaller crustaceans, which might have been present,
were not noted. Ophiuroids were said to be most abundant
in 90 feet.
Benthonic studies in Japan in the northwestern
Pacific (Miyadi and associates, 1940) in shallow (less
than 60 feet) nonpolluted areas, emphasized the prepon-
derance of certain groups of animals. Polychaetes and
mollusks constituted the major parts, with echinoderms
and smaller crustaceans next in numbers and all other
kinds less than 3%. Two kinds of communities were reco-
gnized, a Maldane (bambooworm) in the deeper muddy or
sandy bottoms, and a Cerithium (snail) in shallower
shelly bottoms, The Maldane was commonly associated

with an amphipod, Ampelisca, and both the worm and the
snail communities were characterized by the presence of
mollusk genera such as Tellina, Cylichna, Philine, Dentaliun,
Nucula, Macoma, and polychaete genera such as Prionospio,
_Magelona, Giycera, Terebellides, Sternaspis, Chaetozone,
and Praxillella, all of which occur in nonpoliuted areas
of southern California.
Most of the species in the benthos of Santa Monica
Bay are believed to be endemic; that is, they have restricted,
not cosmopolitan, distributions. There are perhaps many
which are nearly related to some from similar habitats
in other temperate areas, and among the annelids these are
Capitella capitata, Maidane sarsi, Chaetopterus vario-
pedatus, Terebeilides stroemi, Sternaspis scutata,
Scalibregma inflatum, and others, It is noteworthy
that although these are not easily distinguished
morphologically from their relatives in North Atiantic
areas, they may, by detailed study, show physiological
or other differences which may have more than varietal
significance, For example, Chaetopterus variopedatus
is best known for constructing a Ueshaped tube, largely
or fully embedded in the substratum except for its distal
ends, and it usually harbors commensals of several kinds
(a small fish and polynoid). In southern California,
however, it forms dense clusters or irregularly tangled
tubes clumped together on the surface, and not embedded.
It has never been found to harbor a commensal. In most

cases the specific names of these genera have been avoided,
since a much more detailed study of the species is required.
Among the ophiuriods only one, Amphipholis squamata,
is regarded cosmopolitan. Among the amphipods there are
perhaps 2 or 3 species, and among the mollusks there
are believed to be very few.
Patchiness
The patterns of patchiness known in the San Pedro
area (Hartman, 1955) occur also in Santa Monica Bay,
but are less marked. A species may be abundant and
conspicuous in one sample, and rare to absent in an
adjacent one, but its recurrence can be expected in
other more distant samples. These variations might be
explained for slight changes in the character of sediments
such as size of grain, varying amounts of organic content,
differences in nutrient values of the overlying water
columns, proximity to kinds of foods, incidental dispersal
of larvae, or other indirect causes. Differences in rates
and/or times of larvae and other settling stocks which
are necessary to replenish the beds, might effectively
alter the entire facies of a population. Many smaller
species, abounding in shallow water, are known to grow
rapidly and may reach maturity within a period of a few
weeks or months. This is especially the case for many
polychaetes which are numerically and productively high
in Santa Monica Bay.

Aside from occasional samples which have been recovered
from the bottom with pitch globules, there have been no
indications of repellent bottoms such as have been des-
cribed in British Seas (Wilson, 1953). Sediments of
_nonpolluted areas have been classed as attractive,
neutral, or repellent in their reactions to settling of
larvae. According to this theory, attractive factors
derived from organic activity, such as a coat of living
microorganisms as bacteria, can be too abundant or too
few for settling of some species. Bottoms with dead
organisms and non-living organic matter can be actually
repellent,
Where compositions of sediments appear about the
same (such as fine mud), the kinds, proportions, and
densities of animal species may vary considerably in
adjacent areas, Exception can be made to the more immediate
areas of the outfails, where differences in kinds of
associations are more accurately expressed in terms of
distance (within 1 to 3 miles) from the end of the pipe
and with kinds of sediments.
Because of patchiness in shallower bottoms, it is
difficult to repeat samples with like results, even
though they presumably come from identical bottoms.
It should be noted, however, that the associations of
species, rather than individual kinds and amounts, share
the common characteristics and can provide an index of
productivity. Beyond these shallower depths the assemblages

of organisms vary with greater horizontal distance and
reflect differences in kinds of sediments, amounts of
light intensities, decreasing temperature ranges and
perhaps other physical factors.
Diversity resulting from cyclic (seasonal or diurnal)
or from meteorological changes are believed to be insig-
nificant in Santa Monica Bay, except in the shallowest
parts where bottom temperature or salinities might differ
from one season to another, or after prolonged rainfalls.
One of the most striking phenomena of patchiness
in areas of southern California has been observed in the
accumulating evidence for unusual abundance of certain
gregarious species occurring in one, or a few, restricted
patches, perhaps not exceeding several square yards in’
extent, In Santa Monica Bay there are such beds as
Schizocardium (enteropneust) with commensal pinnixid
crabs at Zone II-6, Dentalium rectius (scaphopod) at
V-2, Thalassema sp. (echiuroid worm) at V-6 and V-7,
Pisione nr, remota (polychaete) at II-1, Glottidia
albida (brachiopod) occurs in many shallow areas in
Santa Monica Bay, but the individuals are usually small,
presumably immature, and few in number in any one sample.
Mature individuals have been found in unusual abundance
at only one place (Station 3410-55) off Palisades on the
outer side of Santa Catalina Island in 20 fathoms.
Myxicola sp. (polychaete) is sparse in most parts of
southern California, although it is to be found in shallower

areas where currents prevail, sometimes in Chaetopterus
beds, or in rocky shaley pockets. However, off Santa
Rosa Island (Station 3505-55) it occurs in a flourishing
aggregate of large individuals that has not been found
_ at any other locality. A conspicuous bed of Lacqueus
californicus (brachiopod) is believed to be present along
a rocky shelf off Empire Landing, on the leeward side
of Santa Catalina Island, in less than 40 fathoms, Its
occurrence in other areas is noted only as scattered
email clusters or individuals, usually with one or a few
valves of another brachiopod, Terebratalia transversa,
in rocky outcrops of similar depths. It seems possible
that these and other unique aggregations survive through
periods of years, and that they have biological properties
which encourage the settling of new stocks to insure
existence through successive generations. At any rate,
it must be assumed that there is no sparsity of larval
or settiing stocks in other more distant areas.
Systematic Classification of Faunail Units in Santa Monica Bay
Any scheme of classification must ultimately be
by systematic categories so that each species will have
a binomial name which can be recognized by other scientists.
Its place in the phylogenetic scale will then be established.
In Santa Monica Bay, as well as most of southern California,
this is a problem of the greatest magnitude because many
of the animals (including some economically important ones)

are still unknown,
Among the smaller crustaceans, which include about
150 species and abound in most of the shallower bottoms,
especially in the environs of outfalls or other polluted
_areas, 90% of the amphipods, 80 to 90% of the cumaceans,
and 80 to 90% of the ostracods are considered to be
unknown (Personal cummunication, Dr, J. Laurens Barnard).
These three crustacean, groups are not only highly differen-
tiated, but may have indicator value,
The worm-like animals, including the polychaetes,
echiuroids, sipunculids, nemerteans, enteropneusts,
phoronids and solenogasters, are ali well represented
in Santa Monica Bay, but are among the least known of
ali invertebrates. Thepolychaetes (segmented worms)
are represented by no less than 350 species, most of which
are poorly or not known, They occur at all depths and
in moderate to great abundance, and are associated with
sediments and other animals in predictable numbers and
kinds, The echiuroids (spoon worms) are represented by
5 to 10 species, all either unknown or recorded through
only original descriptions, Sipunculids (peanut worms)
and nemerteans (ribbon worms) are conspicuous and easily
recognized when present, but their systematic categories
remain to be determined, Enteropneusts (acorn worms)
of large size have been found to occur in significant
parts of Santa Monica Bay and at varying depths. According
to the authority of specialists, they have not been studied

or named, Solenogasters (worm-like mollusks) have been
found in a wide variety of bottoms and at different
depths. They are currently being studied by specialists
in Europe who have tentatively identified 10 to 20
different kinds of Chaetoderma, a Limifossor and a
neomeniid, all of which represent either new records or
unknown kinds.
Echinoderms (especially brittle stars, sea urchins,
seastars and cucumbers) are rather well known (Personal
communication, F, C, Ziesenhenne) and were found to be
represented by 58 species, The brittle stars were found
to be particularly characteristic in some parts of the
bay (see Analyses below).
Small mollusks (pelecypods and gastropods) are
present in considerable numbers where the effects of
pollution are low. Because of hard shelled parts they
are eaSily collected, but their specific determinations
are made with difficuity. Their systematic study is in
progress and when completed these groups may show sig-
nificant patterns of distribution and abundance. In the
adjacent San Pedro area, the shelled hinds comprise about
132 categories (Personal communication, Donald Wilson).
In a recent study of mollusks from the offshore islands
of southern California (Berry, 1956), 91 species were
reported from 11 to 58 fathoms, dredged from muddy and
algal bottoms. The number of individuals in single dredge
hauls ran as high as 198 for Amphissa undata (small snail),

105 for Acila castrensis (small clam) and 98 for Mitrella
carinata (snail). Another haul north of Anacapa Island
had no less than 59 species. The other kinds of animals
in these hauls were not named.
Illustrated faunal handbooks and keys for ready
identification of the invertebrate animals of southern
California are greatly needed in attempting a study of
many of these groups of animals. Many are stiil unknown
or unrecorded. Until these needs are supplied, studies
of other kinds will not only be discouraging, but im-
possible,
Ecological Classification of Faunal Units
A systematic classification is an expression of
genetic differences between the various faunal units
and therefore expresses progressive degrees of develop-
mental similarity or relationship. An ecological classi-
fication, on the other hand, is an expression of degrees
of social integration, of adaptational modifications and
adjustments to environmental factors, This results in
grouping organisms according to unrelated phenomena,
such as the kinds of sediments they inhabit, the character
of the food they eat, the levels of temperature or light
tolerances, and other factors of external origin.
Although ecological classification has no phylogenetic
Significance, it is valuable to recognize groups or
associations of animals, which may have indicator value,

but vary with time and place, with depth, and with
geography. Once known, however, they predict not only
their living environment, but the physical and nonbiological
factors or changes with a higher degree of accuracy than
can be done with mechanical instruments, In Santa Monica
Bay these assemblages or associations of organisms have
been found not only to differ appreciably with varying
distances from the ends of the outfall, but to vary in
kind, in organic productivity, and according to the
sediments they occupy. These results are expressed more
fully in the Analyses of samples from these faunal zones,
A single association from shallow bottoms of Santa
Monica Bay may be represented by a quantitative sample
taken from a bottom area measuring two to four square
feet, in a volume of sediments measuring from one to
three cubic feet, Actually the samples have varied
considerably from these dimensions, usually in the lesser
directions, A sample may contain between 50 to 90 different
kinds of metazoan invertebrate animals, numbering from
500 to 1000 individuals, in various stages of growth
to maturity. These assemblages exist in integrated though
constantly changing patterns, and maintain inter- and
intraspecific stabilities over periods of time that may
exceed a year. Because they are believed to include
largely species with short life histories (less than
a year), there must be the constant replacement of popu-
lations by young individuals, many of which pass through

swimming or planktonic stages in the upper columns of
water.
Any factor that might affect one of the units of
such an association, such as diminished food supplies or
other unfavorable physical or chemical conditions or
disease, might effectively upset a balance which could
bring about a change in the facies of the entire asso-
ciation. Such changes have doubtless occurred in the
past, and continue to occur in Santa Monica Bay. As
evidence, there are not only the dead remains of former
inhabitants, such as shell or tube fragments and bored
rocks, but there exist unusual abundances of some kinds
of animals which would not be normally expected unless
there was an unbalance of feeding types. These abundance
peaks are most prominent in Zone I (Limited Enriched
Sector). It is noteworthy that areas of displaced popu-
lations are perhaps constantly being restocked by animals
of other kinds, Settling stocks as swimming or creeping
larvae may be constantly available from outside sources,
but only few kinds might be expected which can establish
themseives. The replacement of worn out, starved, or
overpolluted areas in Santa Monica Bay may be ecologically
complex, It may differ with time of year and with depth
and kind of bottom, The temperature, salinity, and pollu-
tion tolerances of the invading animals, are other
factors of importance,

depth of horizon at which they exist, from shallow
(a few feet), to slope and deep (2940 feet) areas (see
Zones I to VI for the major areas in Santa Monica Bay).
They can also be classified according to biological
requirements, such as varying amounts of dissolved
oxygen, or lack of it (the near absence of life in sub-
Sill parts of Santa Monica Basin may be the result of
such a lack), These animais can be classified according
to their feeding habits as predators or scavengers
(living on dead animal food), carnivores (flesh-eaters),
herbivores (plant feeders), detritus feeders (such as
most animals near Hyperion), limnivores (ingesting mud
with contained microorganisms), filter feeders (straining
water containing nutrients), or as commensals or parasites
(depending on other animals for their food). Aili of these
are represented in Santa Monica Bay. In normal habitats,
ali feeding groups can be expected to be represented in
an association, In the environs of the outfall, however,
most species are detritus feeders(polychaetes and Astro-
pecten), Predators are occasional, entering the area as
foragers (such as larger Cancer crabs, frog snail, and
flounder fishes).
Species vary according to tolerances to salinity
so that near the outfall where large volumes of nonmarine
water are introduced, most echinoderms, mollusks, many
entomostracans and polychaetes are unable to exist. As
the effects of these dilutions decrease, the number of

kinds invading the areas is gradually enlarged and
approaches peak productivity.
Ecologically these species vary according to the
sediments they occupy; whether mud, silt, sand, gravel,
rock, algae, or mixed bottoms. In the sediments they
maintain over (pelagic), on (epifaunal), or in (infaunal)
positions, The positions may differ according to stages
of life history, for some have pelagic eggs and larvae,
and at a certain age they sink to the bottom and creep
about, seeking suitable sediments for settling. Once
a suitable habitat is found, they metamorphose and grow
to maturity in the sediments, Other animals may be errant
or foraging as adults (crabs, Chloeia, many snails),
or they may be attached to a substratum, as hydroids,
barnacles, bryozoans, Many are tubicolous and construct
characteristic tubes which require building materials of
exact kind and size, according to kind or species, Others
are nestling and occupy the burrows or tubes made by
other kinds, or they may be somewhat buried (seawhip,
Giottidia), or burrowing (many mollusks, worms, some
urchins), Each kind has specific requirements which
differ from those of others, and each species is uniquely
modified to occupy its niche at maximum efficiency.
In Santa Monica Bay only a few boring species have
been identified, Such are some sipunculids, in dead
tests of Dendraster, Zone II, and others in shaley rocks
in outer parts of Zone I, A small clam (Saxicava) occurs

in calcareous rock and a boring sabellid in the outer
areas of Zone I, A deep-water boring mollusk, Xylophaga,
occurs in water-logged wood. Commensal species may be
more frequent than current records indicate, Astropecten
(the large sand seastar) harbors two polychaetes, and a
small clam is frequently overrun with a creeping hydroid.
Parasitic forms have been infrequent or perhaps overlooked.
Such are parasitic crustaceans (copepod on Terebellides;
rhizocephalan in Gnathia) and others, The presence of
commensals or parasites with host species can be regarded
as a normal or healthy condition , and when one of the
association species is absent, it is usually the most
dependent one (in such cases, the parasite).
In Santa Monica Bay it has been found convenient
to classify animal associations according to increasing
distance from the ends of effluent pipes. Six such areas
have been identified, varying with successive distance
from an inner zone, at intervals of a haif, to several
miles, The inner, or most shoreward zone, the Beach-
Sand Fauna, is characteristic of much of the strand of
Santa Monica Bay, and may be littie influenced by the
effects of pollution. Only one sample, I W-1, was
examined. It contained mainly sand worms, Nephtys
californiensis, several snaiis, a sand crab, a prochordate,
and numerous smaller sand-dwelling species. Ali of these
species may be dug up along the sandy beach at low tide.

pipe, is regarded as a Limited-Pollution-Fauna. Most
characteristic were two onuphids, Nothria elegans and
Diopatra ornata, also Nephtys caecoides and Glycera
americana, These are also intertidal forms and can
withstand considerable exposure or dilution. Other samples
in this zone (I SW-1), where sediments were coarse, had
considerably more Diopatra and some other kinds, Their
kinds and numbers increase gradually with greater distance
from the pipe (Zone IW-3 to 6), and they come to attain
excessive numbers and sizes farther away (Zone I W-6 to
12) where the greatest numbers and largest sizes are
found. Thus we may speak of peaks of productivity or
maximum biomass in this zone.
Biomass is an expression of the quantity of organic
matters expressed in terms of unit areas. It varies with
kinds of bottoms, and with depth so that the greatest
volumes are usuaily in shallow depths. In Santa Monica
Bay such peaks are related to amounts of nutrients supplied
by the effluent. They have been observed in a variety
of species (Figure 4), some of which are listed, and
others are named in the Analyses. Such peaks of pro-
ductivity have been observed persisting through different
months of the year. Thus they are probably not seasonal
or fluctuating or the resuits of large numbers of larval
or juvenile individuais, but perhaps are directly pro-
portional to increased nutrients and indirectly to variations
in salinity from normal sea water. The estimated biomass

Bio-index is an expression of the ratio of number of
species to that of individuals. It varies with kind of
bottom and with depth. In shallow areas it is lowest
in mixed bottoms where currents prevail (as at Whites
Point), or in Santa Monica Bay in Zone II, It rises
sharply with depth to Zone VI where the ratio approaches
one.
In Santa Monica Bay there is a marked decrease in
numbers of species with increasing depth. They may drop
from 60 or 90 species in a shallow sample from 60 feet,

to 3 or none in 2820 feet. Variations from a straight
descending line graph may result partly from imperfect
sample sizes, or they may reflect the presence of a few
larger predaceous individuals or other patterns of
patchiness,
Indicator Species
An indicator species is one which can provide
precise information in geography, ecology and distribution,
or one which can indicate characteristics of physical and
chemical significance. Such species, to be of value,
have certain requirements, They should be specifically
identified, they should be endemic to an area, not
cosmopolitan in range, and their horizontal and ecological
limits should be known, They should be easily recognized
so that their identity cannot be confused with nearly
related ones, In some recognizable form of their life
history they should occur in all seasons, or at least
not fluctuate. For those undergoing changes in develop-
ment, their stages should be known and recognizable.
They should also occur in sufficient numbers to represent
stable, not stray, populations (Sverdrup, Johnson, and
Fleming, 1942). Their tolerances to varying amounts of
salinities, to changes in temperature, to varying concen-
trations of silt, to possible toxic substances, or
degrees of acclimitization of these factors should be
known, Thus, sedentary or attached species have greater
7 oe oteaingooe ee oy
38
indicator value than foraging or roaming kinds.
In Santa Monica Bay the use of indicator species
seems especially practical because many occur as aggregates
or in association, and have limited ecological dist-
ributions. Some of these by location in zones and
alphabetic by group are:
Ampharete ?arctica near outfall, nr 42 (San Pedro)

A checklist with keys to systematic entities of the

most valuable to permit the analyses and evaluation of
different populations, In southern California this lack
is one of the greatest obstacles in ecological surveys,
for many large and important animals are either unknown

or unreported.
Results of Some Other Biological Observations
A fish-kill in June 1956, resulting in the death of
several hundred tons of fishes, along the shallow beaches
of Santa Monica Bay was found to have been caused by the
discharge of large volumes of scalding water by the
Edison power plant, The fishes examined were surf-
perches and measured 3 to 5 inches long.
The use of current meter lines along outer parts of
Zone I resulted in occasional catches of the large sand
sea-star, Astropecten californicus, with commensal poly-
chaetes, Arctono® and Podarke, both of which do not occur
with their host in the more immediate environs of the
effluent outfall. The fire-body, Pyrosoma atlanticum
( a colonial tunicate), was occasionally snagged on lines
during the summer months.
Lobster traps baited with dead fish were set at
varying distances from the outfall, with the following
results. On one line extending 1.2 to 3 miles from the
Hyperion stack, in depths of 10 to 25 1/2 fathoms, traps
were dropped in the evening and pulled up in the morning.
The stations were those of the VELERO IV numbered 4448-56
to 4451-56.

From these results it appears that not only crabs

has similar habits.
Comparative Food Vaiues of the Benthonic Animals
The wide-spread use of bait-worms in various parts
of the world indicates the preference of many fishes for
this kind of food. Commonly used are several kinds of
Glycera, Marphysa, nereids, nephtyids, opheliids, Arenicola,
and others. (The frequently used terms blood, sand or
proboscis worms, refer to color, habitat or some part
of the animal. The names differ with locality and have
no specific meaning.) Soft-shelied clams and sand shrimps
are also used for bait. These animals are the most natural
foods of animals in the sea. Some animals which occur
in great numbers, such as sea-stars and brittle-stars,
have little if any food value, whereas urchins may be

sought for by some foraging animals, Pelagic larvae of
many benthonic animals are a chief source of food,
It is generally agreed (Blegvad, 1951) that many
animals select their food and that they seldom change
diets. Benthonic animals can be regarded as the chief
source of food for predators and carnivores. Fluctuations
in their kinds and numbers can thus provide and index
of productivity of animals in higher categories, Ina
series of studies on the food of bottom-feeding fishes
of Danish waters, Blegvad regarded most pelecypods and
smaller crustaceans and nearly all polychaetes as first
class plaice food. The amounts by weight and frequency
in stomach contents of fishes, gave worms the highest
ratings, varying from 50 to 90% Pelecypods and crusta-
ceans comprised most of the rest. Later Blegvad summarized
the results of studies of nearly 25 years and showed that
only slight variations in kinds of foods occurred with
time and place. It was found that the amounts of com-
mercial fishes caught were directly related to the amounts
of bottom animals present. These experiments may be
directly applicable to the animals existing in Santa
Monica Bay.
Size of the Largest Animal Species Taken
Most invertebrate metazoan animals in Santa Monica
Bay are small to minute, often measuring less than one to
two inches long. A few individuals, from scattered places,
Av,
45
have been conspicuous for their size or weight. They
include:
Cancer antennarius Station 4450-56 827 grams
Astropecten californicus at I SW-4, 3 1/2 inches across
Pisaster giganteus at I NW-6, weighed 187 1/2 grams
Stichopus californicus at I W-20, measured 5 inches
Compsomyax subdiaphana a clam, at III-7, measured
2 1/2 by 1 3/4 inches and weighed 24 grams.
Macoma a clam, at II-6, weighed 31.7 grams
?Drupa a snail, at I NW-6, weighed 75 1/3 grams
Glycera robusta at I W-10b, the only one of this
kind taken,

SUMMARY.= None of the animals is conspicuously large or abundant.
The fauna has the appearance of a replaced one, with individual
numbers sparse and perhaps at the fringe of their distributions.
The estimated volume of organic matter is 90 ml.
Summary of Zone I, western sector, numbers W=1 to 22.
The sample from W-1 is from a shifting beach sand characterized
by sand worms, Nephtys californiensis, a sand crab, Lepidopa myops,
and diversified smaller kinds. The Timi todePallatdoastanneianees
presented by W=2, characterized by Nephtys caecoides, Nothria elegans
and other kinds of smaller polychaetes. Species are limited in
number and size. Echinoderms, mollusks and smaller crustaceans are
either sparse or absent. A Pollution-Tolerant-Fauna is represented
by samples from W-3 to 5, and characterized by increasing numbers
and kinds of species and larger sizes of individuals; present are
Glycera americana, Marphysa nr. conferta, Nereis procera, and other
kinds of polychaetes, in addition to some smaller mollusks, and increas-
ing number of smaller crustaceans and some ophiuroids, or also smaller
individuals of Astropecten.
The Limited=Enriched=Fauna, represented by samples from W-6 to 12,
is considered limited for lacking some species known to occur in similar
areas that are not polluted. It is enriched for having unusually high
numbers of individuals (peaks of biomass). Thus, in one sample (W-7)
ophiuroids are represented by 3 species with 188 individuals, mollusks
by 23 species and 125 individuals, crustaceans by 19 species and
about 150 individuals, polychaetes by 46 species and more than 200
individuals, or in all 7 major groups with 95 species and 760 individuals.
The Unlimited=Diminished Fauna, represented by samples from W-13
to 19, has increasing numbers of kinds, but diminishing peaks (or none)
of biomass. This area is further characterized by having bottoms that
are largely gravelly, rocky or rubbly. The current fauna has the
appearance of a replaced one, with vestiges of a former one, re-
presented by bleached fragments of hydrocorals, brachiopods, larger
mollusks and other larger epifaunal kinds of animals. The species now
present are largely those in the sediments or capable of moving about.
I SW-1 Sta. 2992-55. In 60 feet. OPG took 0.5 cuft of hard packed
sandy mud. The screenings consisted almost entirely of polychaetes.

SUMMARY of V-1 to 37. Redondo Canyon supports a unique fauna,
characterized by many species which are sparse or absent in other
parts of Santa Monica Bay. Most of its bottoms are soft or muddy.
In its moderate depths it supports a Thalassema association, which is
replaced in its. deeper parts by an ampharetid, and finally by a
Phyllochaetopterus association.
VI-l. Sta. 2791-54. In 2567 feet. OPG took 3.08 cuft of fine
blue gray mud. All materials passed through the screens but about

cuft of fine mud. There were no living metazoan animals.
SUMMARY OF VI-l to 14.- The stations in Zone VI represent a large,
subsill area in soft, muddy bottoms of Santa Monica Bay. There are
only two or three species (Phyllochaetopterus, Protis, and Cyclopecten),
in sparse numbers, in scattered areas. Two samples (VI-5 and V1-4)
near the lower end of Redondo Canyon, have metazoan animals of more
diversified kinds. Faunistically considered, the subsill area of
Santa Monica Bay is a continuation of the impoverished or dead area
present in San Pedro Basin.
