AbstractWe report new records and corological data for three Moroccan marine macroalgae that complete their distribution information. Radicilingua thysanorhizans is new record for Morocco; Champia compressa is recorded for the first time from the eastern coast of the Atlantic Ocean. Diplothamnion jolyi is widely distributed in the western coast of the Atlantic coast and Pacific Islands, and recently reported from the Mediterranean Sea; this new record from Moroccan Atlantic coast extends their distribution range.Key words: Algae, Atlantic Ocean, Champia compressa, Diplothamnion jolyi, Radicilingua thysanorhizans.ResumenSe aportan nuevos registros y datos corológicos para tres macroalgas marinas de Marruecos, que completan la información sobre su distribución. Radicilingua thysanorhizans es cita nueva para Marruecos. Champia compressa se registra por la primera vez en la costa oriental del Océano Atlántico. Diplothamnion jolyi se distribuye ampliamente en la costa occidental de la costa atlántica y las islas del Pacífico y ha sido recientemente citada en el mar Mediterráneo; esta nueva cita para costa Atlántica Marroquí amplia su rango de distribución.Palabras clave: Algae, Océano Atlántico, Champia compressa, Diplothamnion jolyi, Radicilingua thysanorhizans.

The fungal genus Agaricus includes edible, medicinal and some toxic species mainly in the Agaricus sect. Xanthodermatei. As the diversity of the genus is not well known in Iran, an inventory of the species has begun in 2013 in different provinces. Morphological and/or molecular analyses of 12 selected specimens from recent field collections and from herbarium specimens revealed that ten of them belonged to four potentially poisonous species of the Agaricus sect. Xanthodermatei: A. iodosmus, A. moelleri, A. phaeolepidotus and A. xanthodermus. Moreover, our study revealed that previous first records of A. xanthodermus and A. moelleri in Iran had been based on morphologically misidentified and correctly identified specimens, respectively. Finally, three species, A. iodosmus, A. phaeolepidotus and A. xanthodermus are reported as new records for Iran mycobiota. The four species of the section are described and illustrated.

From May to October 2017 seaweeds were identified in the field and laboratory from 20 sites around Brier Island, Nova Scotia. While most sites were intertidal rocky shores, there were one small salt marsh and one eelgrass bed included in the study, and some subtidal sampling was conducted utilizing SCUBA and snorkeling. The Brier Island seaweeds comprised 152 species and varieties of which 62 were Rhodophyta, 44 were Chlorophyta, 44 were Phaeophyceae, and two species were Xanthophyceae. Three species were new records for eastern Canada: Colaconema bonne- maisoniae, C. endophyticum, and Elachista stellaris, all were pre- viously recorded from New England. The flora included eight non- native species of which Colpomenia peregrina and Bonnemaisonia hami- fera (both gametophytic and tetrasporophytic stages) were abundant at two or more sites, and the invasive Codium fragile subsp. fragile was recorded based on a single drift specimen. With 150 species and varieties of seaweeds, Brier Island has the highest species richness of a limited area of eastern Canada. The Cheney floristic index at 2.4 is higher than comparable areas, and suggests that many additional brown algae remain to be found.Keywords: Chlorophyta, Colaconema, Bay of Fundy, Brier Island, Phaeophyceae, Rhodophyta, seaweeds

This paper presents some results of research on family Lauraceae in Pu Mat National Park, Nghe An province, from 2015 to 2017. Total 90 species belonging to 13 genus of Lauraceae family were collected and identified. There were1 genera and 22 species found as new records for the plant list of Pu Mat published in 2017. Cinnamomum was the richest genus (26 species), then followed by Litsea (24 species), Lindera (8 species), and other genera (1 to 6 species). In Lauraceae of Pu Mat National Park there are 4 threatened species listed in the Red Data Book of Viet Nam (2007) are Cinnamomum parthenoxylon, Actinodaphne elliptibacca, Cinnamomum balansae, Cinnamomum cambodianum. The number of useful plant species of the Lauraceae is categorized as follows: 60 species for timber, 50 species supply essential oil, 34 species as medicinal plants, 13 species for ornamental, 3 species for edible and ornamental. The Spectrum of Biology (SB) of the Lauraceae in Pu Mat is summarized, as follows: Ph% = 11.11%Mg + 50.00%Me + 36.67%Mi + 1.11%Na + 1.11Pp. The Lauraceae in Pu Mat National park are mainly comprised of the tropical element (37.78%), endemic element (57.78%), temperate element (2.22%) and crops element (2.22%).

Two pasiphaeid shrimps, Leptochela (Leptochela) irrobusta Chace, 1976 and Leptochela (Leptochela) chacei Hayashi, 1995, were collected in samples from the South China Sea, marking the first time these species have been found in Chinese waters and thus as Chinese fauna. These two pasiphaeid species belong to the genus Leptochela Stimpson, 1860. L. (L.) chacei was previously known to be distributed in tropical regions: Viet-Nam, New Caledonia and Madagascar. This paper represents its first record from a temperate zone, which is unusual for its habitation. These two species are redescribed in detail and their current zoogeographical distributions are discussed. In addition to these two species, five species of Leptochela have previously been recorded from China. We used these species to provide a key to the Leptochela species from China.

Resumen:Antecedentes y Objetivos: Debido a la escasez de conocimiento sobre macroalgas en lagunas costeras de Tabasco, en este trabajo se determina ladiversidad ficoflorística de macroalgas asociadas a la laguna El Carmen, municipio Cárdenas, y se contribuye al conocimiento biológico y ecológicoen el estado de Tabasco.Métodos: Se realizaron muestreos en un ciclo anual de 2015 a 2016 durante la época de lluvias, la de nortes y la de secas. Los organismos se recolectaronmanualmente, se fijaron con agua marina y formol al 4%, se identificaron y se depositaron en los herbarios FCME (UNAM) y UJAT.Resultados clave: Se reportan 21 especies de macroalgas marinas, tres de las cuales son nuevos registros para el estado de Tabasco. La divisiónRhodophyta con las familias Gracilariaceae y Rhodomelaceae tiene la mayor riqueza de especies; Gracilaria blodgetti fue la más abundante. Durantela temporada de nortes se registró la mayor riqueza y abundancia.Conclusiones: Se incrementó a 125 el número de registros de Rhodophyta y 28 de Ochrophyta para Tabasco. Se sugiere ampliar el número de muestreossistemáticos en un ciclo anual con la finalidad de tener una mejor representación de la diversidad y la estacionalidad de las macroalgas en lalaguna El Carmen.Palabras clave: algas marinas, diversidad, estacionalidad, laguna costera.Abstract:Background and Aims: Due to the lack of knowledge about macroalgae in Tabasco’s coastal lagoons, this work determined the macroalgae diversityassociated to the El Carmen lagoon, municipality Cardenas, and contributes to the biological and ecological knowledge of the state of Tabasco, Mexico.Methods: Three samplings were carried out in an annual cycle from 2015 to 2016, during the rainy, northern wind and dry seasons. The organismswere collected manually, fixated with seawater and 4% formalin, identified, and deposited in the UJAT and FCME (UNAM) herbaria.Key results: Twenty-one species of marine macroalgae were recorded, of which three are new records for the state of Tabasco. The Rhodophyta divisionwith the families Gracilariaceae and Rhodomelaceae had the highest species richness and Gracilaria blodgetti was the most abundant species.The greatest diversity and abundance appeared in the northern winds season.Conclusions: There is an increase to 125 species in the number of records of Rhodophyta species and 28 in the Ochrophyta for Tabasco. Hence, it issuggested to extend the sampling time and perform systematic work in an annual cycle, in order to have a better representation of the diversity andseasonality of the macroalgae in the El Carmen lagoon.Key words: coastal lagoon, diversity, marine algae, seasonality.

Four new species of the genus Atopsyche Banks (Hydrobiosidae) from Pantepui biogeographical region (Venezuela) are described and illustrated: Atopsyche (Atopsaura) inmae n. sp., Atopsyche (Atopsaura) cristinae n. sp., Atopsyche (Atopsaura) svitoki n. sp., and Atopsyche (Atopsaura) carmenae n. sp. Molecular analyses (cox1 sequences) allowed larva-adult associations and the morphological description of larvae of two of the new species (A. inmae and A. cristinae). A phylogenetic tree is performed to assess the molecular validity of the species, establish evolutionary relation among them and interpret historical biogeography of tepuis. Finally, two new distributional records for A. (Atopsaura) atahuallpa are included, which up to now was known only from the type locality.
