title: Cyanobacteria in New Zealand indigenous grasslands

description: We review current knowledge of cyanobacterial diversity and abundance in New Zealand's indigenous tussock grassland soils and present preliminary results on microbial diversity in grassland soils. A cyanobacterial community of eight operational taxonomic units was present in soil samples from Deep Stream indigenous grassland. This included strains belonging to the orders Chroococcales, Oscillatoriales and Nostocales. UniFrac analysis showed that the cyanobacterial populations were significantly different between burnt and unburnt soils. In addition, we outline the different techniques used to investigate cyanobacterial diversity and the role of cyanobacteria in providing fixed nitrogen into terrestrial ecosystems. Approaches include classical techniques of isolating cyanobacteria on selective media as well as traditional culture-independent methods involving DNA fingerprinting and/or analysis of molecular markers, including the use of polymerase chain reaction amplification in combination with Sanger sequencing to assess phylogenetic diversity in ecosystems. These labour intensive approaches are often limited by the number of samples that can be analysed. Advances in microarrays and high-throughput sequencing technologies now enable in-depth analysis at a lower cost and allow variations in microbial communities to be detected at different taxonomic levels. We compare the advantages and limitations of both traditional and new approaches.

title: Parasites of Aquatic Exotic Invertebrates: Identification of Potential Risks Posed to the Great Lakes

description: ABSTRACTExotic species typically lose most of their associated parasites during long-distance spread. However, the few parasites that are co-introduced may have considerable adverse impacts on their novel hosts, including mass mortalities. We present a comprehensive inventory of parasites known to infect 38 species of exotic invertebrates established in the Great Lakes, as well as 16 invertebrate species predicted to arrive in the near future, all of them crustaceans. Based on a literature analysis, we identified a total of 277 parasite taxa associated with the examined invertebrates in their native ranges and/or invaded areas. Of these parasites, 56 species have been documented to cause various pathologies in their intermediate or final hosts, with humans and fishes being the most frequently affected host categories. Potentially harmful parasites were identified in 61% of the invaders for which published information was retrieved (in their ranges outside of the Great Lakes), with molluscs and crustaceans hosting the highest numbers of such parasites. The results of our study provide a baseline for further assessment and management of the parasitological risks posed by exotic species to the Great Lakes.

title: Photosynthetic biocathode enhances the power output of a sediment-type microbial fuel cell

description: Conventional microbial fuel cells (MFCs) consist of biological anodes and abiotic cathodes separated by a proton-exchange membrane. The abiotic cathode usually catalyses the reduction of oxygen to produce water by means of expensive catalysts such as platinum.<sup>1</sup> The cathodic reaction is often limiting in MFCs and researchers are now focusing on efficient, low-cost catalysts to improve oxygen reduction at the cathode. This paper describes a photosynthetic biocathode in a sediment-type MFC constructed without a proton-exchange membrane. The carbon and stainless steel cathode did not contain any catalyst, but was covered in a biofilm composed of a complex community including microalgae and cyanobacteria. Although electroactive species were detected in the cathode biofilm, no biocatalysis of oxygen reduction was observed. Enhancement of the current output was mostly due to the production of pure oxygen near the cathode surface by the photosynthetic biofilm. Photosynthesis could produce dissolved oxygen levels approximately four times higher than oxygen levels obtained by aeration. The MFC was able to generate a maximum power density of 11 mW/m<sup>2</sup> (projected anode area) over six months without feeding.

title: Survey of users about advantages and disadvantages of electronic technologies for accessing journals

description: The survey results summarised in this file came from two separate exercises, an email survey and a print survey. The survey instrument went through several pilot stages, and was modified as a result. The instrument was specifically designed around a series of balances between completeness versus time required to fill in, and open versus closed questions. At each stage, users were invited to add additional responses as well as free-form comments at the end. The final set of questions was organised in five groups. The first group dealt with general demographic issues: the industry category of the respondent and their primary employment role. The intention here was to see if responses would vary according to the respondent's circumstances. A range of general categories was provided and respondents could add their own category if they wished. The second group asked about their access to computing technology either at home or at work. The specific questions asked whether they had any access to any of a personal computer, a CD-drive (for CD-ROM based publications), a sound card or equivalent, a colour screen, a direct network connection or modem access, or any other form of technology they wished to specify. The third group asked them how often they used particular forms of electronic publishing: subscribing to an email list, accessing an ftp server, accessing a gopher server, accessing the Web, using a CD-ROM, viewing electronic journals, viewing the e-journal Psyche (see below), or publishing electronically. The fourth group asked them to provide their feelings (using a standard 5-point Likert scale from Strongly Agree to Strongly Disagree) about a series of possible advantages of electronic publishing. They could also add up to two other advantages if they wished. The fifth group asked them to provide their feelings (using the same scale) about a series of disadvantages of electronic publishing. As before, they could add up to two other disadvantages if they wished.

title: Morphology, palaeobiology and phylogeny of <i>Oryctocaris balssi</i> gen. nov. (Arthropoda), a phyllocarid from the Lower Devonian Hunsrück Slate (Germany)

description: <i>Nahecaris balssi</i> Broili, 1930 is a phyllocarid crustacean known only from the Lower Devonian Hunsrück Slate in Germany. This study redescribes the species on the basis of 22 new specimens and the holotype. Phylogenetic analysis of several Palaeozoic phyllocarids reveals that <i>N. balssi</i> and <i>N. stuertzi</i> Jaeckel, 1921 are not congeneric, as was previously assumed, and that there are significant morphological differences between these taxa. Thus, the new genus <i>Oryctocaris</i> is erected for <i>N. balssi</i>, characterized mainly by the absence of a rostrum and a median dorsal plate. It is suggested that <i>O. balssi</i> was a fairly active swimmer, which was not limited to the benthic zone. Furthermore, the species presumably swam by means of powerful pleopod strokes coupled with downward movements of the abdomen. It is likely the telson spine with its furcal rami acted as a paddle, enhancing propulsion. We suggest that <i>O. balssi</i> was a deposit feeder, foraging by digging in the mud and picking up food particles or small hard-shelled organisms such as molluscs, which were then crushed by the large and robust mandibles.http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:7A84A8A9-F9F3-464E-A3B2-24B9056EE0B6
