説明

Mollusca collected by Agassiz trawl from the 2016 SO-AntEco Expedition (JR15005) to the South Orkney Islands, Antarctica - data is an occurrence type dataset published by British Antarctic Survey.

Information regarding the Mollusca in this dataset is derived from Agassiz trawl (AGT) samples collected on shelf plateau and slope off the South Orkney Islands, Antarctica, within and outside of the South Orkney Islands Southern Shelf marine protected area. Sampling was conducted in the framework of the British Antarctic Survey/SCAR “South Orkneys - State of the Antarctic Ecosystem” (SO-AntEco) project aboard RRS James Clark Ross during expedition JR15005 in Austral summer 2016. Of 78 successful AGT deployments, 44 trawls at depths ranging from 235-2194 m contained living Mollusca, totaling 2276 individuals, 67 morphospecies and 163 distributional records. Of these, 1999 individuals were Bivalvia (accounting for 15 species), 158 Gastropoda (45 species), 113 Scaphopoda (2 species), 4 Polyplacophora (3 species) and 2 Aplacophora (2 species); empty shells were also collected and recorded in the data table. Three morphospecies (1 Bivalvia and 2 Gastropoda) were collected exclusively as empty shells, thus yielding a total of 70 morphospecies represented in the dataset. All individuals were preserved in undenatured ethanol and are stored as vouchers in the collections of the British Antarctic Survey, Cambridge, United Kingdom. This dataset constitutes a valuable contribution to the knowledge of megafaunal Mollusca associated with a range of benthic habitat types in the South Orkney Islands, an exceptionally diverse region of the Southern Ocean.

プロジェクトデータ

The data presented here were obtained in the framework of the British Antarctic Survey/SCAR “South Orkneys - State of the Antarctic Ecosystem” (SO-AntEco) project aboard RRS James Clark Ross during expedition JR15005 in Austral summer 2016. The aims of the expedition were to identify and quantify the benthic fauna in and around the South Orkney Islands Southern Shelf Marine Protected Area. The Mollusca comprise an important and well-studied fraction of the Antarctic benthic fauna and here we present the molluscs collected by the expedition’s Agassiz trawl deployments.

タイトル South Orkneys – State of the Antarctic Ecosystem (SO-AntEco) - JR15005 RRS James Clark Ross 2016
ファンデイング SO-AntEco - JR15005 expedition was part of the Biodiversity, Evolution and Adaptation Project of the Environmental Change and Evolution Program of the British Antarctic Survey.
Study Area Description The study area encompasses the continental shelf and slopes of the South Orkney Islands archipelago, Scotia Arc, in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean. This dataset presents the species occurrences, species richness and abundances of larger-sized (mostly more than 1 cm) molluscs based on individual AGT hauls. The South Orkney Islands are situated approximately 600 km north-east of the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula and hydrographically affected by the Antarctic Circumpolar Current in the north, and the Weddell Sea Gyre in the south (Barnes et al. 2009, Meredith et al. 2011, Dickens et al. 2014).
研究の意図、目的、背景など(デザイン) The main aim of the SO-AntEco expedition was to assess and contribute to a better understanding of the benthic biodiversity, community composition and -zonation on the shelf and slope areas of the South Orkney Islands, including the SOISS MPA, and to inform future MPA monitoring and management. Benthic sampling stations ranged from approximately 200 to 2000 m water depth and were chosen to cover different benthic habitats, based on the map of geomorphic zones by Dickens et al. (2014). These habitats included: (i) shelf, (ii) gentle shelf slope, and (iii) ridge along the southern shelf edge of the South Orkney Islands, and (i) shelf, (ii) steep shelf slope, (iii) marginal plateau, (iv) seamount, and (v) steep trough walls along the northern shelf edge (Brasier et al. 2018).

収集方法

Mollusca were collected using a 2 m-wide Agassiz trawl with an outer 3 cm mesh-sized and an inner 1 cm mesh-sized nets following a standardized deployment protocol (see below). Six major clusters of sampling stations were located to the south, west, north west (subdivided into two sites: “North West” and “North West Trough”), north and north east of the South Orkney Islands, as well as at Bruce Bank. Targeted sampling depths were 500, 750, 1000, 1500 and 2000 m. Furthermore, a single Agassiz trawl was taken on the shelf off Signy Island at approximately 200 m depth. If conditions permitted, three replicate AGTs were taken at the shallower stations (500, 750 and 1000 m), while at least one haul was conducted at the deeper stations (1500 and 2000 m). Swath multibeam bathymetry was used to assess seafloor topography prior to AGT deployments, and if possible (less than 1000 m depth), in situ seafloor imagery conducted at the same sites using the shallow underwater camera system (SUCS) to gather additional information on local faunal density, biomass and abundance (see also Brasier et al. 2018). Once on the bottom, the AGT was trawled for 10 min at a speed of 1 kn. Of a total of 78 successful AGT deployments during JR15005, 44 deployments (depth range: 235-2194 m) contained living molluscs and are represented as individual sampling stations in our dataset.

Study Extent The study area encompasses the continental shelf and slopes of the South Orkney Islands archipelago, Scotia Arc, in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean. This dataset presents the species occurrences, species richness and abundances of larger-sized (mostly more than 1 cm) molluscs based on individual AGT hauls. The South Orkney Islands are situated approximately 600 km north-east of the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula and hydrographically affected by the Antarctic Circumpolar Current in the north, and the Weddell Sea Gyre in the south (Barnes et al. 2009, Meredith et al. 2011, Dickens et al. 2014). Previous biodiversity analyses have shown that the South Orkney Islands are characterized by an exceptionally high biodiversity for a polar site, most of which is contributed by marine benthic species (Barnes et al. 2009). To protect representative examples of marine ecosystems, habitats and the biodiversity in the region, CCAMLR closed all demersal finfish fisheries around the islands in 1989 and established the SOISS MPA in 2009 (CCAMLR-XXVIII paragraph 7.1; CM 91-03), the world´s first and only MPA entirely in the high seas (Brasier et al. 2018).
Quality Control Identification of Mollusca was performed at the BAS based on external morphological characteristics using specialized literature (e.g., Dell 1990, Hain 1990, Numanami 1996, Steiner & Linse 2000, Aldea & Troncoso 2008, Engl 2012, Kantor et al. 2016) and an available reference collection. Mollusca were identified to the lowest possible taxonomic level, excluding one live-collected specimen too damaged for morphological identification. Thirty-four percent of morphospecies (24 spp.) could only be classified at the generic level or above: 2 of these morphospecies were Solenogastres, 2 morphospecies Polyplacophora, 1 morphospecies Bivalvia, and 19 morphospecies Gastropoda. Taxa not identified to species level represent distinct morphospecies and do not belong to any other species in the dataset. Further morphological and genetic studies are required to clarify the status of these taxa. In morphospecies likely to represent undescribed species, DNA has been extracted for future COI sequence analysis. Three of the 70 morphospecies (Cuspidaria tenella, Torellia sp. 1, and Falsilunatia cf. scotiana) were collected only as empty shells. The classification and accepted nomenclature were matched against the World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS Editorial Board 2018). Coordinates were plotted on map to verify the actual geographical location corresponds to its locality. Event dates were converted into ISO 8601 and verified with the field reports.

Method step description:

  1. Benthic sampling with a 2 m-wide Agassiz trawl in the South Orkney Islands.
  2. On board, the catch was hand-sorted into different higher taxa, with Mollusca segregated mostly to class level. Their wet mass was assessed and the animals subsequently fixed in 96 % ethanol.
  3. Taxonomic identifications of the molluscan specimens were performed at the British Antarctic Survey (Cambridge, UK), based on morphological characters and with the aid of a stereomicroscope.
  4. Of species potentially new to science, DNA was extracted for future molecular analysis.
