Titre : European register of marine species : a check-list of the marine species in europe and a bibliography of guides to their identification Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Costello, Mark J., Auteur Editeur : M.N.H.N. Année de publication : 2001 Importance : 463 p. Format : 30 cm ISBN/ISSN/EAN : 978-2-85653-538-7 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 592 Invertébrés Résumé : This book is the first attempt to list all marine species in Europe in order to avoid any confusion of their names. The check list includes about 30,000 species representing all marine taxa in Europe.
Lists of species, such as provided here, are only the starting point for marine biodiversity management and research. The value of producing the lists is:
" To provide a single nomenclature for European marine species, which will generate further research to clarify anomalies, and
" To form the basis for more elaborate species databases, with more synonyms, and data on species distribution, ecology, conservation importance, economic importance, and so on.
It is anticipated that the register will become a standard reference and technological tool for marine biodiversity training, research and management in Europe. The species register can be used to:
Check the spelling or find the correct name of a species and the authority;
" For a given species, check what other (or how many) species exist in the same Genus, family or higher taxa. These species may not be included in the local identification guides;
" Find information on the distribution of species among higher taxa;
" Indicate the level of knowledge of a group of species by analyzing the rate of discovery of species;
" Find literature on the identification and other knowledge of marine species in Europe.European register of marine species : a check-list of the marine species in europe and a bibliography of guides to their identification [texte imprimé] / Costello, Mark J., Auteur . - M.N.H.N., 2001 . - 463 p. ; 30 cm.

Titre : Toxicity of sewage sludge to Crangnon cragnon and Artemia salina, with reference to other marine Crustacea Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Costello, Mark J., Auteur Importance : pp. 351-356 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : 578 Histoire naturelle des organismes vivants Résumé : The toxicity of sewage sludge to adult and larval sand shrimp, Crangon crangon, and larval brine shrimp Artemia salina, was studied. Temporal changes in toxicity, ammonia and pH of sewage sludge in seawater were determined. The feasibility of sediment choice bioassays using adult Crangon were examined. The 24 h LC50 of sewage sludge at 20°C was 0.4% sludge for Crangon larvae, and 10.0% for Artemia larvae. Toxicity to Crangon larvae decreased with decreasing ammonia and increasing pH as sludge decayed over 7 days. In adult Crangon, a dose response with greater variation at <3% sewage sludge (wet volume in seawater) was found. For adult Crangon at 10° C, the LT50 at 1% sludge was 80-90 h and 96 h LC50 0.8-1.7% sludge. No clear differences were apparent between 96 h LCSO's in static and 24 h renewal tests. Adult Crangon avoided sediments mixed to concentrations of 6.25% and 10% sewage sludge, but buried at similar frequencies in uncontaminated and 1.57% sludge sediments. In addition to possible chemical effects from ammonia and other sewage sludge components (e.g. metals, organochlorines, hydrocarbons), sludge solids may have physical effects on Crustacea. Bioaccumulation is possible if persistent contaminants occur in the sludge. From estimated field concentrations of sewage sludge, and the results of this and other toxicity studies, lethal effects at sewage sludge disposal sites are believed unlikely. However, further sediment studies (longer-term, life-cycle, bioaccumulation, and mesocosm) are required to evaluate the role of sediment tests in understanding the effects of sewage sludge on benthic Crustacea.
