Environmental Programme

SynopsisAn intertidal rocky shore monitoring programme was established in 1981 as part of the Beatrice Environmental Programme covering thirty-four different locations in the Moray Firth between Duncansby Head and Fraserburgh. This paper describes the survey methods, the species found and the rocky shore communities encountered on these shores. During the development of the Beatrice Oil Field a new shore line was created in the Cromarty Firth at the Nigg terminal and the successional changes in the communities on this shore between 1981 and 1984 are discussed.

A New Species

A new amphipod species of the genus Elasmopus Costa, 1853 is described based on material collected from intertidal rocky shore, near the Suape Harbor, coast of the Brazilian state of Pernambuco. The new species may be recognized by the propodus of gnathopod 2 suboval, slightly tapering distally, palmar margin not defined by a stout seta, spine, or palmar corner, with a subdistal blunt tubercle, posterior margin covered by a dense fringe of plumose setae, and posterior margin of basis of pereopod 7 castelloserrate. This is the ninety-fifth species of the genus Elasmopus described worldwide, the most diverse genus in the family Maeridae Krapp-Schickel, 2008, and the eighth species recorded from Brazilian waters. An identification key to Brazilian species of Elasmopusis also provided.
