ABSTRACT The Tunicata, despite the relatively low species diversity among the invertebrates, has always received attention not only due to their ecological importance, especially in fouling communities, but also for several species that are studied as models for genetics and the evolution of development, as well as being a prolific source of natural products. In Brazil, research during the last 60 years has considerably increased our knowledge of benthic and planktonic tunicates, resulting from the work of several research teams. In this review, we provide information on the biodiversity of coastal Brazil along with an analysis of geographic distribution, sampling effort, the locations and status of taxonomic collections, and research specialists working on this group.

ABSTRACT The limited temporal completeness and taxonomic accuracy of species lists, made available in a traditional manner in scientific publications, has always represented a problem. These lists are invariably limited to a few taxonomic groups and do not represent up-to-date knowledge of all species and classifications. In this context, the Brazilian megadiverse fauna is no exception, and the Catálogo Taxonômico da Fauna do Brasil (CTFB) (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/), made public in 2015, represents a database on biodiversity anchored on a list of valid and expertly recognized scientific names of animals in Brazil. The CTFB is updated in near real time by a team of more than 800 specialists. By January 1, 2024, the CTFB compiled 133,691 nominal species, with 125,138 that were considered valid. Most of the valid species were arthropods (82.3%, with more than 102,000 species) and chordates (7.69%, with over 11,000 species). These taxa were followed by a cluster composed of Mollusca (3,567 species), Platyhelminthes (2,292 species), Annelida (1,833 species), and Nematoda (1,447 species). All remaining groups had less than 1,000 species reported in Brazil, with Cnidaria (831 species), Porifera (628 species), Rotifera (606 species), and Bryozoa (520 species) representing those with more than 500 species. Analysis of the CTFB database can facilitate and direct efforts towards the discovery of new species in Brazil, but it is also fundamental in providing the best available list of valid nominal species to users, including those in science, health, conservation efforts, and any initiative involving animals. The importance of the CTFB is evidenced by the elevated number of citations in the scientific literature in diverse areas of biology, law, anthropology, education, forensic science, and veterinary science, among others. publications problem uptodate up date classifications context exception (CTFB http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/, httpfaunajbrjgovbr http //fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ , jbrj gov br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/) 2015 Brazil 80 specialists 1 2024 133691 133 691 133,69 125138 125 138 125,13 82.3%, 823 82 3 (82.3% 102000 102 000 102,00 7.69%, 769 7 69 (7.69% 11000 11 11,00 . 3,567 3567 567 (3,56 2,292 2292 2 292 (2,29 1,833 1833 833 (1,83 1,447 1447 447 (1,44 1000 1,00 831 (83 628 (62 606 (60 520 (52 50 users science health biology law anthropology education others http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ faunajbrjgovbr //fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br/ 201 8 202 13369 13 133,6 12513 12 125,1 82.3% (82.3 10200 10 00 102,0 7.69% 76 6 (7.69 1100 11,0 3,56 356 56 (3,5 2,29 229 29 (2,2 1,83 183 83 (1,8 1,44 144 44 (1,4 100 1,0 (8 62 (6 60 52 (5 5 http//fauna.jbrj.gov.br (http://fauna.jbrj.gov.br 20 1336 133, 1251 125, 82.3 (82. 1020 0 102, 7.69 (7.6 110 11, 3,5 35 (3, 2,2 22 (2, 1,8 18 (1, 1,4 14 4 ( 82.

Abstract Scientific diving (SD) is defined as any diving activity that applies scientific procedures to produce subsidies for studies and technical works in underwater environments. The first report of an underwater scientific study in Brazil dates to the 19th century, in the Abrolhos reefs. Currently, in Brazil, scientific diving has been performed in various areas, from shallow coastal regions to remote and sometimes hard-to-reach places, such as oceanic islands, flooded caves, and icy areas like Antarctica. However, the regulation of SD in Brazil still lacks more concrete actions towards an effective and efficient self-regulation that offers physical safety to practitioners and institutional safeguards for organizations that use it in their research projects. Thus, this article aims to contribute to a better understanding of this critical issue in Brazil and to serve as a reference and incentive for the training of professionals and the development of these activities in the country. It includes: 1) a historical review of SD; 2) a diagnosis of the training and application of SD in Brazil; 3) the evolution of marine sciences in Brazil from the perspective of SD; 4) a review of the use of environmental assessment and underwater conservation techniques in oceans and internal waters; 5) an analysis of the evolution of scientific diver training in Brazil, including a diagnosis on training; 6) the history and updates of the rules, regulations, and safety of SD.

Resumo: O Brasil possui um papel importante no comércio de ornamentais marinhos, utilizando espécies tanto para exportação como para o mercado interno. Poucos trabalhos anteriores descreveram as espécies nativas utilizadas pela indústria brasileira de aquarismo marinho, e a maioria deles era focada exclusivamente no uso de peixes. Assim, o presente trabalho almeja preencher a falta de informação em relação às espécies atualmente exploradas no país, bem como relativas às suas categorias de conservação. Dessa forma, diferentes fontes de informação foram investigadas e cada espécie foi categorizada de acordo com as listas de espécies ameaçadas existentes. Uma grande variedade de espécies foi identificada no comércio do aquarismo marinho brasileiro, o que inclui não somente peixes, mas também invertebrados, macroalgas e macrófitas. Algumas dessas espécies não poderiam ser exploradas, mas mesmo assim seguem sendo comercializadas. Essa utilização ilegal de espécies nativas provoca preocupações frequentes acerca da sustentabilidade dessa atividade. Desse modo, para reduzir os impactos ambientais causados pelo aquarismo marinho, as autoridades brasileiras deveriam incentivar a implementação de taxas-ecológicas, a aquisição de produtos de aquário com selos ecológicos, o desenvolvimento sustentável da aquacultura ornamental e iniciativas de manejo baseadas no ecossistema.
Abstract: Brazil has an important role in marine ornamental trade, exploiting native species for both international and domestic market. A few works have previously assessed wild species exploited by the Brazilian marine aquarium industry and most of them focused solely on fish. Hence, the present paper intends to address an information gap regarding the species currently traded in the country, as well as concerning their conservation statuses. Thus, different sources of information were investigated and each species was categorized in accordance with existing lists of threatened species. A wide variety of native species was identified in Brazilian marine aquarium trade, including not only fish but also invertebrates, seaweeds and macrophytes. Some of these species were legally protected, but are still commerced anyway. Such illegal exploitation of native species causes increasing concerns about the sustainability of the activity. Therefore, in order to reduce environmental impacts caused by marine ornamental trade, Brazilian authorities should encourage the implementation of eco-fees, the purchase of eco-labeled aquarium products, the development of sustainable ornamental aquaculture and ecosystem-based management initiatives.

Resumo Bancos de rodolitos formam oásis de alta biodiversidade em ambientes marinhos de fundo arenoso. Os rodolitos são formados por espécies bioconstrutoras, que fornecem abrigo e substrato para diversas e abundantes comunidades bentônicas. No Brasil esses ambientes são frequentes, representando grandes "fábricas" de carbonato com um papel fundamental no ciclo biogeoquímico do carbono no Atlântico Sul. Estes organismos e ambientes estão ameaçados pelas mudanças climáticas (principalmente a acidificação dos oceanos e o aquecimento global) e pelos estressores locais, tais como os impactos causados pela pesca e as descargas costeiras de efluentes. Neste trabalho fazemos uma revisão da taxonomia, filogenia e biologia desses organismos, com destaque para os efeitos previstos das mudanças climáticas e suas relações com estressores locais. A maioria dos estudos acerca dos efeitos das mudanças climáticas e da acidificação dos oceanos em algas calcárias relatam respostas negativas não só no crescimento e na calcificação, mas também no processo de fotossíntese, espessura da parede celular, reprodução e sobrevivência das algas. Este cenário reforça a necessidade em estabelecer uma consistente rede de trabalho para proporcionar um programa de monitoramento amplo e de longo prazo, bem como infraestrutura para avaliações experimentais de impactos locais e regionais das mudanças climáticas e dos estressores locais em bancos de rodolitos.
Abstract Rhodolith beds are important marine benthic ecosystems, representing oases of high biodiversity among sedimentary seabed environments. They are found frequently and abundantly, acting as major carbonate 'factories' and playing a key role in the biogeochemical cycling of carbonates in the South Atlantic. Rhodoliths are under threat due to global change (mainly related to ocean acidification and global warming) and local stressors, such as fishing and coastal run-off. Here, we review different aspects of the biology of these organisms, highlighting the predicted effects of global change, considering the additional impact of local stressors. Ocean acidification (OA) represents a particular threat that can reduce calcification or even promote the decalcification of these bioengineers, thus increasing the eco-physiological imbalance between calcareous and fleshy algae. OA should be considered, but this together with extreme events such as heat waves and storms, as main stressors of these ecosystems at the present time, will worsen in the future, especially if possible interactions with local stressors like coastal pollution are taken into consideration. Thus, in Brazil there is a serious need for starting monitoring programs and promote innovative experimental infrastructure in order to improve our knowledge of these rich environments, optimize management efforts and enhance the needed conservation initiatives.

Previous studies demonstrated that the crude extract of the ascidian Eudistoma vannamei, endemic from northeasttern Brazil, strongly hinders growth of tumor cells in vitro by inducing apoptosis due to tryptophan derivatives, which are commonly found in bacteria. This study presents a bioactivity-guided screening among actinomycetes, associated with E. vannamei, aiming at recognizing active principles with biological relevance. Twenty strains of actinomycetes, designated as EVA 0101 through 0120, were isolated from colonies of E. vannamei among which 11 were selected for cytotoxicity evaluation. The extracts from EVA 0102, 0103, 0106, 0109 and 0113 were the most active, and were further studied for IC50 determination and chemical analysis by ¹H NMR. IC50 values obtained ranged from 3.62 µg mL-1 (for EVA 0109 in leukemia cells) to 84.65 µg/mL (for EVA 0106 in melanoma cells). All active extracts exhibited the same TLC and spectroscopic profiles, suggesting the presence of quinones and other related secondary metabolites. Furthermore, these strains were identified and compared based on their respective 16S rRNA sequences. The results herein identified the five strains as Micromonospora spp. while phylogenetic analysis suggests that they are possibly two different Micromonospora species producing the cytotoxic compounds.
Estudios previos demostraron que el extracto crudo de la ascidia Eudistoma vannamei, endémica de la costa noreste de Brasil, obstaculiza fuertemente el crecimiento de células tumorales in vitro por inducir apoptosis. El análisis químico del extracto sugirió la presencia de derivados de triptófano, comúnmente encontrados en bacterias. El estudio presenta un screening de citotoxicidad en actinomicetos asociados con E. vannamei, para reconocer principios activos biológicamente relevantes. Veinte cepas de actinomicetos, designados como EVA 0101 hasta 0120, fueron aisladas de colonias de E. vannamei y 11 fueron seleccionadas para la evaluación de citotoxicidad. Los extractos de EVA 0102, 0103, 0106, 0109 y 0113 resultaron las más activas y fueron estudiadas para determinación de la CL50 y perfiles de CCF y ¹H RMN. Las CL50 obtenidas oscilaron entre 3,62 (EVA 0109 en las células de leucemia) y 84,65 µg mL-1 (EVA 0106 en las células de melanoma). Los extractos activos presentan el mismo perfil de CCF y espectroscópico, lo que sugiere la presencia de quinonas y metabolitos secundarios relacionados. Además, las cinco cepas fueron identificadas y comparadas sobre la base de sus secuencias de 16S ARNr. Las que se identificaron como Micromonospora spp. y el análisis filogenético sugiere que sean por lo menos dos especies de Micromonospora las que producen los compuestos citotóxicos.

Ascídias são organismos marinhos que, em sua maioria, vivem fixados a substratos consolidados desde as regiões costeiras até às grandes profundidades. Apesar de serem cordados, apresentam um plano corporal adulto muito modificado em função de seu hábito de vida. O Estado de São Paulo é o que apresenta o melhor conhecimento da fauna de ascídias, tanto em termos de sua biodiversidade como em aspectos ecológicos. No estado, a região do município de São Sebastião foi a mais estudada em função da presença do Centro de Biologia Marinha da USP, que atraiu muitos pesquisadores desde a década de 1960. Nos últimos 50 anos houve um crescimento constante no conhecimento da fauna paulista de ascídias, que conta atualmente com 66 espécies registradas. No entanto, ainda existem lacunas importantes, pois o extremo norte e o litoral sul do estado ainda têm uma fauna de ascídias praticamente desconhecida, especialmente aquela relacionada às ilhas costeiras. As regiões mais profundas da plataforma continental e talude também foram pouco exploradas. Há necessidade de formação de recursos humanos para manter a continuidade dos estudos de biodiversidade, pois atualmente não existe nenhum grupo de pesquisa consolidado trabalhando com Ascidiacea no estado.
Ascidians are marine organisms that, for the most part, are found adhered to hard substrates from coastal to abyssal regions. Despite being chordates, their body plan is very modified to suit their life-style. In Brazil, ascidians are best studied in the State of São Paulo, both in terms of biodiversity and ecology. In that state, coastal waters of the municipality of São Sebastião are particularly well studied because the Marine Biology Research station of the University of São Paulo established there has attracted researchers since the 1960s. Knowledge of ascidians has been increasing continuously during the last 50 years, and today, 66 species are recorded from the state of São Paulo. Nonetheless, there are still important areas that need study, such as the extreme north and south in that state, where the ascidians have almost never been sampled, especially on the many coastal islands. Also, deeper regions of the continental shelf and slope are also poorly studied. Developing additional human resources is necessary for the continuity of biodiversity studies and today, no research group is studying ascidians in the State of São Paulo.

Margens de estuários com a vegetação de manguezal formam um importante hábitat para peixes, pois são zonas de alimentação, abrigo e berçário. O presente trabalho tem como objetivo caracterizar a ictiofauna associada às raízes de mangue do estuário do Rio Pacoti (CE). Foram realizados 10 censos visuais com duração de 90 minutos cada. Foram feitas 671 avistagens, com densidade média de 0,74 avistagens/minuto. Os indivíduos pertencem a 22 espécies e 18 famílias. Todas as espécies registradas são de origem marinha, apesar das amostragens serem realizadas principalmente no período chuvoso. As famílias que apresentaram um maior número de espécies foram Gerreidae e Lutjanidae. As espécies que apresentaram maior frequência de ocorrência foram Lutjanus alexandrei, Lutjanus jocu e Bathygobius soporator, estando presentes em todos os censos. As duas espécies mais abundantes foram L. alexandrei (48%) e L. jocu (17%). Levando-se em consideração as estimativas de tamanho destas espécies, foi verificado que as raízes de mangue são habitadas principalmente por indivíduos jovens de ambas as espécies, o que leva a supor que estas utilizam tal habitat como área de berçário. Contudo, na estação de coleta com menor complexidade estrutural foi avistado o maior número de indivíduos do gênero Lutjanus, em praticamente todas as faixas de comprimento, o que sugere que no Rio Pacoti a quantidade de raízes pode não influenciar na quantidade de indivíduos abrigados. Aproximadamente 70% das espécies avistadas também ocorrem em ambientes recifais, o que demonstra a existência de fortes conexões entre esses dois ecossistemas. Os resultados encontrados enfatizam a importância do habitat estudado para a conservação da ictiofauna costeira e apontam a necessidade de pesquisas relacionadas principalmente ao recrutamento, padrões reprodutivos e tróficos das duas espécies mais representativas.
The mangrove vegetation along the margins of estuaries is an important habitat for fish, serving as feeding, shelter and nursery zones. The present work describes the fish fauna associated to mangrove roots at the Pacoti River estuary. A total of ten visual censuses of 90 minutes each were conducted, yielding the number of 671 fish counted, with an average of 0.74 counts/minute. The fishes were identified pertaining to 22 species from 18 different families. All the studied species are originally marine, although the samples were mainly carried out during the rainy season. Gerreidae and Lutjanidae were the more representative families. The species Lutjanus alexandrei, Lutjanus jocu and Bathygobius soporator were present in all censuses and the first two were also the most abundant, with 48 and 17% of the total counts, respectively. Taking into account size estimations of the fish, it was verified that mangrove roots are inhabited mainly by juveniles of both species, indicating the use of this habitat as a nursery area. However, in the least complex sampling site, specimens of genus Lutjanus were sought in higher quantities, comprinsing all size classes, thus suggesting the abundance of roots in Pacoti River might not influence the abundance of sheltered fishes. Another important observation is that almost 70% of the species present in the mangrove roots are typical of reef habitats, indicating the existence of strong connections between these two ecosystems. The results emphasize the importance of this habitat for ichthyofauna conservation to coastal areas. In addition, studies regarding to fish recruitment, reproductive and trophic patterns are needed, especially to those two main important species described herein.

The occurrence of golden crabs (Chaceon fenneri) off the northern coast of Brazil was first reported in 2001. Since then, a few companies and boats have exploited this resource. In the state of Ceará, one company has been fishing for these crabs with a single boat since 2003. The production and fishing effort of this company indicated a decrease in the number of trips and total catches per year. Data collected on one trip in 2006 showed that the CPUE was highest at over 650 m depth. As registered for other geryonid crabs, C. fenneri was segregated by sex along the northern slope of Brazil. Male crabs were significantly larger than females, presenting an isometric relationship between carapace width and length and an allometric relationship between carapace width and body weight.
La presencia de cangrejos dorados (Chaceon fenneri) frente a la costa norte de Brasil fue primeramente descrita en 2001. Desde entonces, algunas embarcaciones y compañías se han dedicado a explotar este recurso. En el Estado de Ceará, una sola compañía ha estado pescando estos crustáceos desde el año 2003 con una sola embarcación. Se presenta la producción y esfuerzo pesquero aplicado por esa compañía, indicando la disminución en el número de viajes y captura total por año. Registros recolectados en un viaje realizado el 2006 muestran que los mayores valores de CPUE se obtienen a profundidades mayores de 650 m. Al igual que lo registrado en otros Geryonidae, agregaciones por sexo se determinaron en C fenneri a lo largo del talud en la región norte de Brasil. Los machos fueron significativamente más grandes que las hembras, presentando una relación isométrica entre el ancho y longitud del caparazón; como también, una relación alométrica entre el ancho y el peso.
