A taxonomic revision of the Nystiellidae from Brazil, including samples from the Rio Grande Rise, South Atlantic, was performed based on shell morphology. Five genera and 17 species were recognized. For the richest genus,Eccliseogyra, the three species previously recorded from Brazil were revised:E. brasiliensisandE. maracatu, previously known only from their respective type series, were re-examined. Newly available material ofE. maracatuexpanded the known geographic range of this species to off south-east Brazil.Eccliseogyra nitidais now recorded from north-eastern to south-eastern Brazil, as well as from the Rio Grande Rise. Three species ofEccliseogyraare newly recorded from the South Atlantic:E. monnioti, previously known from the north-eastern Atlantic, occurs off eastern Brazil and on the Rio Grande Rise; its protoconch is described for the first time, confirming its family allocation.Eccliseogyra pyrrhiasoccurs off eastern Brazil and on the Rio Grande Rise, andE. folinioff eastern Brazil. The genusIphitusis newly recorded from the South Atlantic.Iphitus robertsiwas found off northern Brazil, although the shells show some differences from the type material, with less-pronounced spiral keels. Additional new finds showed thatIphitus cancellatusranges from eastern Brazil to the Rio Grande Rise, and Iphitusnotiossp. nov. is restricted to the Rio Grande Rise.Narrimania, previously recorded from Brazil based on dubious records, is confirmed, including the only two living species described for the genus:N. azelotes, previously only known from the type locality in Florida, andN. concinna, previously known from the Mediterranean. A third species,Narrimania raquelaesp. nov. is described from eastern Brazil, diagnosed by its numerous and thinner cancellate sculpture. To the three species ofOpaliopsispreviously known from Brazil, a fourth species,O. arnaldoisp. nov., is added from eastern Brazil, and diagnosed by its very thin spiral sculpture, absence of a varix, and thinner microscopic parallel axial striae.Papuliscala nordestina, originally described from north-east Brazil, is recorded off eastern Brazil and synonymized withP. elongata, a species previously known only from the North Atlantic.

Here, I review the synonymy of Craniolaria integrifolia and typify this name and its synonyms, including the taxonomically complicated species C. argentina. The distribution of C. integrifolia is also greatly extended by the discovery of a gathering of this species from Piauí, north-eastern Brazil, and the recognition of overlooked gatherings from Rio Grande do Sul, southern Brazil, where the type specimen most probably originated from. An updated identification key to the species of Craniolaria is also provided.

Major Cheliped

An adult male specimen ofUca rapax(Crustacea, Decapoda, Ocypodidae), containing bilaterally hypertrophied chelipeds, was found in the mangrove area of the Rio Grande do Norte state, north-eastern Brazil. The chelipeds are subequal in size and similar to the major cheliped of normal male specimens ofUca rapax. This paper is the first record of the aforementioned anomaly for the species from the Brazilian coastline.

The information herein presented were compiled from six scientific articles, one undergraduate monographs, four master and three doctoral thesis and six working papers presented during the “I South American Meeting of Research and Conservation of Tursiops truncatus”, which was held in Rio Grande, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil between May 21-23, 2010. Some personal communications complement the information. Each topic discussed in the present report followed the geographical sub-divisions established in the Report of the Working Group on Distribution (this volume): a) Northern Brazil; b) North-eastern Brazil; c) South-eastern Brazil; d) Southern Brazil and Uruguay and e) Argentina.
