Molecular Diagnosis: On the basis of the mtDNA 16 S rRNA gene, this species can be distinguished from other Macrostylis species by the following unique asymmetric nucleotide combinations: position: TCTAAAAGTTTAGAAT (162-177), AAAATTAGA (184-192) and CTCTTTAGAATAGAGA (231-245).
Etymology
The specific epithet " papandreas " is a noun in apposition and was the nickname of the late Andreas Heitland, father of Nele Johannsen, whose memory is honoured by this eponym.
Distribution
Tropical North Atlantic, eastern and western Vema Fracture Zone, abyssal depths of 5,002.5 m to 5,119 m.
Taxon discussion
Macrostylis papandreas Johannsen, Brandt & Riehl, sp. nov. represents the first species of the family from the Atlantic Ocean for which adult males with " extremely " elongate posterior pereopods and other aberrant character states (see diagnosis) could be linked to a female by means of DNA sequence data. Sexually dimorphic character states have been discussed in detail for species with a much lower degree of differences between the sexes (Riehl et al. 2012). After previous reports from the Northwest Pacific (Bober et al. 2017) which was the first location to shed light on this " extreme " sexual dimorphism, this description and molecular characterisation of M. papandreas sp. nov. brings us one step closer to the identification of female counterparts of the " weird " male forms represented, for instance, by M. longipes Hansen, 1916 and M. longipedis Brandt, 2004 (see Hansen (1916), Brandt (2004)).
Notes
Methods
Sampling: Macrostylis papandreas, sp. nov., was discovered during the Vema-TRANSIT expedition (SO 237, R / V Sonne, Dez / Jan 2014 / 15, Atlantic Ocean (Devey et al. 2015)).
Sample treatment and DNA sequencing: The samples were collected using a camera-epibenthic sledge (C-EBS) (Brandt et al. 2012) and treated following the protocol by Riehl et al. (2014 b) to fixate and extract benthic macrofauna for molecular and morphological studies. Tissue samples were processed by LGC Genomics (Berlin) and previously published by Riehl et al. (2018).
Species description: Five individuals of M. papandreas sp. nov. were transferred into glycerine to prepare temporary slides for taxonomic line drawings following Wilson (2008). The holotype was used for the illustration of the habitus. Paratype ZMH K- 45149 was dissected for illustration of the habitus and appendages. Paratype ZMH K- 45166 and non-type ZMH K- 45159 were dissected for illustration of the habitus and appendages. Paratype ZMH K- 45167 was used for illustration of the habitus. Ovigerous female, 2.1 mm, ZMH K- 45159, from Vema-TRANSIT expedition (SO- 237) station 11–1 was dissected for illustration of the habitus and appendages. Pencil drawings were prepared on a Leica Dialux compound microscope equipped with camera lucida and a custom-made LED lighting system by BW Optik (Aschendorf). Calibrations were done with the help of a stage micrometer (1.0 mm x 0.01 mm). All drawings were scanned as greyscale PDF and traced using a digital drawing board (Wacom Intuos 4) and the vector-graphic software Adobe ® Illustrator ® CS 6 (Coleman 2003, Coleman 2009). To improve the impression of depth and structure in the line drawings, digital stippling was added to selected illustrations (Bober and Riehl 2014). Measurements were taken from the digitalised drawings with the measuring tool in Adobe ® Acrobat ® XI Pro following the standards of Hessler (1970).
For SEM, four individuals of M. papandreas were critical-point dried and sputter-coated with graphite; a Zeiss LEO 1525 was used. Where several scans were required to illustrate a specimen, total-projection images were merged using the Microsoft Image Composite Editor version 2.0.3.0 (64 bit). Figures of line drawings and SEM pictures were edited using Adobe ® Photoshop ® CS 6 and Adobe ® Illustrator ® CS 6.
Morphological characters were conceptualised and character states were scored in an updated DELTA (Dallwitz 1980, Dallwitz 1993, Dallwitz 2010) database for Macrostylidae (Riehl et al. 2012, Riehl and De Smet 2020) which is publicly available via the Zenodo repository (Riehl 2024 b). Description texts and diagnoses were generated from this database. Terminology and structure of each description follows previous work on Macrostylidae (Riehl et al. 2012, Riehl et al. 2014 a, Riehl 2014). The articles of the antennae are named according to Hansen (1893).
From all types and other material, selected posterior pereopods from one side of the body were dissected for DNA extraction. For the molecular diagnosis, all nucleotide sequences for Macrostylidae were downloaded from GenBank (Benson et al. 2012). These included the mtDNA 16 S mRNA previously published for Macrostylis papandreas sp. nov. (Riehl et al. 2018), the only sequences available for this species to date. A multiple sequence alignment was constructed using MAFFT (Katoh et al. 2009) implemented in Geneious (Kearse et al. 2012) with default settings. The alignment is publicly available via the Zenodo repository (Riehl 2024 a). The molecular diagnosis was prepared using the online tool DeSigNate (Hütter et al. 2020). Under consideration of single nucleotides, no position of the alignment reached a discriminative power of 1.0 between the query group (Macrostylis papandreas sp. nov.) and the reference group (all other macrostylid species). Consequently, neighbouring noisy positions were manually combined until a combined asymmetric candidate character (those strings of homologous nucleotides of the reference group that are not uniform, but different from the character state in the query group) was obtained.
Specimens were deposited at the Leibniz Institute for Biodiversity Change Analysis (LIB), Museum of Nature Hamburg, Germany, using the collection code “ ZMH ”.
