    Notes: A video-LEED system for rapid measurement of spin-polarized low-energy electron-diffraction (LEED) data is described. The system is based on a special, high-dynamic-range camera but will also support TV-rate cameras for less demanding I/V LEED work. The capabilities of the system include LEED pattern recording, and data acquisition for asymmetry versus energy (A/V), intensity versus energy (I/V), and intensity versus time (I/T). The design and operation of the system is described and illustrated by asymmetry data for W(001). © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract Two laboratory experiments were conducted on Ophiocoma echinata (Lamarck, 1816) collected from Missouri Key, Florida, USA, to ascertain the effects of arm regeneration on energy storage and gonad production. In each experiment individuals were divided into non-regenerating (all arms intact) and regenerating (three arms autotomized) groups and maintained together in a re-circulating seawater system for 2 mo. In Experiment 1, individuals were fed once a week, and in Experiment 2 once every 2 wk. The amount of food energy required for maintenance was estimated to be 0.172 kJ d−1. The lower feeding level (Experiment 2) was below maintenance ration and both groups lost material relative to an initial group. At the higher feeding level (Experiment 1), regeneration of three arms resulted in less storage of organic material, mainly lipid in the stomach, and less gonad production. Thus, regeneration may reduce energy reserves and reproductive output.

    Notes: Abstract Utilization of marine plants and their constituents by bacteria isolated from the guts of echinoids was investigated to determine the potential role bacteria may have in carbohydrate digestion in echinoids. Bacteria from the guts of the regular echinoids Lytechinus variegatus (Lamarck) and Arbacia punctulata (Lamarck) could physically degrade the marine plants Ulva lactuca and Eucheuma nudum, but not Caulerpa prolifera. Diplanthera wrightii and Thalassia testudinum were only slightly degraded by the gut bacteria. Bacteria from the guts of the irregular echinoids Mellita quinquiesperforata (Leske) and Encope aberrans (Martens) could not physically degrade any of these marine plants. Mixed and some isolated bacteria from the gut of L. variegatus could utilize xylose, rhamnose, glucose, galactose, laminarin, carageenan, starch and agar, but not cellulose or chitin. The results with isolates suggest that the bacteria of the echinoid gut are fairly non-selective. The bacteria of the guts of the two regular echinoids could utilize certain marine plants that the echinoids eat and certain of the plant constituents. The bacteria could not utilize plant fibers.

    Notes: Abstract The high-energy windward coasts with narrow rocky intertidal regions (Oistens, River Bay) at Barbados, West Indies, had abundant macroscopic algae (mainly Sargassum sp.) and populations of Holothuria glaberrima Selenka and Echinometra lucunter (Linnaeus), while protected ones with a wide rocky intertidal had sparse macroscopic algae and populations of E. lucunter only. The low-energy leeward coasts with wide rocky intertidal regions (Six Men's Bay, Payne's Bay) had no macroscopic algae in the surf zone and populations of E. lucunter only. Numerical densities of E. lucunter were high in all localities; the highest level of 144 m-2 was found at Six Men's Bay; numerical densities of H. glaberrima were high at both Oistens and River Bay, the highest level of 36 m-2 being recorded at River Bay. The caloric density of H. glaberrima at River Bay was 412 kcal m-2. The highest combined density of H. glaberrima and E. lucunter was at Oistens (632 kcal m-2, with 254 kcal m-2 being due to E. lucunter). The highest caloric density of E. lucunter at Six Men's Bay was 482 kcal m-2. Dependence on suspended food probably restricts H. glaberrima to high-energy environments while E. lucunter has an additional food source through its ability to scrape the rock substratum. E. lucunter may be more efficient in catching drift food. Mortality is suggested to be the basis of the failure of E. lucunter to displace H. glaberrima from the high-energy location.
