Ecosystem Modeling in Cobscook Bay, Maine: A Boreal, Macrotidal Estuary 2004 Northeastern Naturalist 11(Special Issue 2):261–324 Cobscook Bay Inventory: A Historical Checklist of Marine Invertebrates Spanning 162 Years THOMAS J. TROTT* Abstract - Cobscook Bay inventory is a historical checklist that documents nearly 800 species of macroinvertebrates found in Cobscook Bay, ME, based on collection records spanning the past 162 years. Information on species occurrence over time has been compiled from published literature, museum collection records, electronic databases, graduate students theses, and species collection lists from invertebrate zoologists. Nearly all records have been reviewed for the validity of identifications by an international group of taxonomic specialists. Accepted species names and their authorities are listed along with alternate names used previously for well over a century. This format results in a historical timeline of the occurrence of species in Cobscook Bay that starts with discovery and continues through past and recent records for each species. It is hoped this database will provide a baseline that will be updated with discoveries of new species, made by developing molecular techniques and observed changes in species occurrence from invasions or local extinctions, to keep its historical perspective intact. Introduction Cobscook Bay, ME, is the northern-most bay on the east coast of the United States near the United States-Canada border at the mouth of the Bay of Fundy. The Bay amounts to approximately 110 km2 and lies behind an open boundary between Eastport and Lubec (Fig. 1). This boreal, macrotidal estuary is dominated by energetic tides of high amplitude that result in thorough mixing of the water column. Source water is cool, nutrient- rich continental slope water that enters the Gulf of Maine through the deep Northeast Channel and spreads along the bottom to the upwelling zone at the mouth of the Bay of Fundy. The geographic boundary of the Bay proper can be extended out into the Head Harbor Passage when physical oceanographic information of water circulation is considered to define the region. Extreme tides, tidal upwelling, high incidence of summer fog shielding the intertidal from solar radiation, and unusually varied habitats have all been implicated as reasons for the diverse invertebrate fauna of Cobscook Bay (Trott and Larsen 2003). The distribution of surfi- cial sediments is one indication of the diversity of intertidal and subtidal environments present in the Bay (Fig. 2). *R.S. Friedman Field Station, Edmunds, ME 04628; Biology Department, Suffolk University, 41 Temple Street, Boston, MA 02114; codfish2@earthlink.net. 262 Northeastern Naturalist Vol. 11, Special Issue 2 Early explorations of Cobscook Bay and the surrounding region make the historical perspective of this checklist possible. The high productivity of this ecosystem was recognized in 1872 by the United States Fish Commission (now the National Marine Fisheries Service [NMFS]) with the establishment of the second station in its history at Eastport, ME, the first station being located at Woods Hole, MA. Twenty-nine years earlier, J.W. Mighels had published records of marine molluscs from Cobscook Bay (Mighels 1843), and a decade later, William Stimpson published his findings from summer explorations around Eastport and the neighboring island of Grand Manan (Stimpson 1851a, 1853). Nearly another decade passed before C.B. Fuller (1862a,b) reported on invertebrates collected from Treat’s Island and other locations in the vi- Figure 1. Map of Cobscook Bay, ME. Inset illustrates general location of Cobscook Bay in relation to the Gulf of Maine. 2004 T.J. Trott 263 cinity of Eastport. Records of the invertebrates from Cobscook Bay then began to appear more frequently in the literature, authored by a graduate student of Louis Agassiz, originally from Maine, who became the first Professor of Zoology of Yale College. His name was Addison E. Verrill, and he spearheaded the US Commission’s explorations into the waters of the Gulf of Maine. The highly diverse and abundant invertebrate fauna of Cobscook Bay was the focus of a presentation by Verrill to the Essex Society in which he described how with ease so many examples of every phylum could be found during a walk in the intertidal or below the wharfs of Eastport (Verrill 1871b). His words resonated those of Stimpson (1851a), who had reported 20 years previous that two or three hundred species of different classes might be found in the Fundy Isles during a single low tide. This inventory of the marine invertebrate fauna of Cobscook Bay spans 162 years from Mighels (1843) to the present (see Larsen and Gilfillan 2004, Trott 2004a). Records prior to 1900 are primarily from dredging, which was the common sampling technique of the time. However, Stimpson (1851a) observed that many species that occur subtidally in the southern Gulf of Maine are present intertidally, an observation later verified for the Eastport area by Fuller (1862a,b). This unusual distribution is one reason why collections made after the turn of the century were almost entirely from the intertidal zone. Figure 2. Surficial geology map for Cobscook Bay, ME (Kelley and Kelley 2004). Cobscook Bay Intertidal and Subtidal Environments 264 Northeastern Naturalist Vol. 11, Special Issue 2 Faunistic information used to construct this document was drawn from literature, museum collections, electronic databases, and species lists. Major monographs, peer-reviewed publications, government reports, and graduate theses formed the majority of the literature-based knowledge for this inventory. It includes all of Verrill’s published records for Eastport and the Bay proper in addition to other major early works, e.g., Holmes (1905), Richardson (1905), and Webster and Benedict (1887). Museum records, primarily from the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, and the Peabody Museum, Yale University, comprise the source of collections-based knowledge and contributed greatly to the certainty of species identifications. There is a level of redundancy created by using these sources in combination. For example, many of Verrill’s published collections are in the holdings of the Peabody Museum and therefore are often cross-referenced when both Verrill and the Peabody Museum are listed as records for a particular species. Another source of overlap stems from papers published in the Boston Society of Natural History series “Fauna of New England” that included the records of Verrill, Stimpson, Mighels, and others. There is no attempt to calculate the degree of overlap within and between these sources. An important noteworthy fact is, however, that the Peabody Museum holds specimens deposited by collectors more recent than Verrill, and many of the authors of the contributions to the Fauna of New England included new record information. When new records were listed within sources such as these, the original source of the information was not cited. This information is left to the reader to discover if it is sought. Collection records for specimens held at the Peabody Museum are accessible online (Division of Invertebrate Zoology 2005). A third source of information is now available in the form of electronic databases. Websites for Gastropoda (Rosenberg 2003–04), Hexacorallia (Fautin 2004, Fautin and Buddemeier 2003), and Turbellaria (Tyler et al. 2005) were used to determine synonymies, authorities, and location information for these groups. Electronic databases were not the exclusive source of these types of information. A fourth smaller, but not insignificant, source of information came from species lists of taxonomists and invertebrate zoologists, whose work would have gone unknown otherwise. These contributors donated their information towards this effort freely. Their generosity is acknowledged here: Dr. Terrence Gosliner, California Academy of Sciences; Dr. Paul Langer, Gwynedd Mercy College; Dr. Peter F. Larsen, Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Sciences; Professor Rachel Merz, Swarthmore College, who donated collection records of the late Professor Norman Meinkoth; Professor Nathan W. Riser, Emeritus, Marine Science Center, Northeastern University; and Professor Seth Tyler, University of Maine, Orono. 2004 T.J. Trott 265 The search for the most recent, accepted valid names for the numerous reported species from Cobscook Bay was the most difficult task of preparing this inventory. The weight of this fell upon taxonomists who were solicited for their interest in reviewing lists of species in their taxa of specialty. They also contributed information flagging suspected misidentifications and authorship errors passed down through the literature. The generous contributors listed in Table 1 who voluntarily donated their spare time to this task are gratefully acknowledged. Additional information on specific groups was supplied by Daphne Fautin, Natural History Museum and Biodiversity Research Center, University of Kansas, Cnidaria; Peter J. Hayward, University of Swansea, United Kingdom, Ectoprocta; Gerhard Pohle, Huntsman Marine Science Centre, New Brunswisk, Crustacea; Larry Harris, Department of Zoology, University of New Hampshire, Nudibranchia; and Andrea Waeschenbach, The Natural History Museum, United Kingdom, Ectoprocta. Appreciation is also given to those who volunteered their expertise that eventually was not needed because of the lack of information about their taxon of specialty: Frank Ferrari, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, planktonic Copepoda; Louis Kornicker, National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, Ostracoda; and Richard Heard, University of Southern Mississippi, Tanaidacea. Without the unselfish assistance of all contributors, the quality of this publication would be below its present level. Table 1. Taxonomic reviewers and contributors to the Cobscook Bay Inventory.

The Cephalopoda, Chaetognatha, Ctenophora, Hemichordata, Nematoda, Priapulida, Pycnogonida, and Scaphopoda fell into this category. Fortunately, these taxa contain few records that made a daunting task less strenuous, aided by reviewers who volunteered their knowledge when possible. Synonyms and previously used names for species in these and other taxa were traced by me to valid species names often but not exclusively using: Abbott (1974), Bousfield (1973), Brunel et al. (1998), Cairns et al. (1991), Clark and Downey (1992), Costello et al. (2001), Cutler (1994), Fauchald (1997), Gosner (1971), Macpherson (1971), Pollock (1998), Schultz (1968), Squires (1990), Turgeon et al. (1998), Williams (1984), and Williams et al. (1998). The high degree of scholarship of all resources makes reasonably certain the validity of identifications used to construct this inventory. In cases where records originated from museums, voucher specimens are available to confirm species identifications. Doubtful species records for each phylum, identified by taxonomic reviewers, appear in sections titled “Uncertain Records.” Reasons for questioning these identifications are referenced by footnotes annotated near the end of each phylum. The concept of validity for species used in producing this document, though rigorous by all attempts, is none-the-less limited given developing molecular techniques for identifying species. For example, Hydractinia polyclina so closely resembles H. echinata morphologically that the two species can be distiguished only on the basis of molecular data (D. Calder, pers. comm.). Molecular techniques could distinguish new species among species included in this list. There are obvious shortages and gaps in this list concerning specific taxa. Groups imperfectly known were left out early in strategizing the preparation of this inventory. Intentionally not included were most meiofauna (e.g., Protista, Kinorhyncha, Gnathostomulida, Loricifera, Rotifera, Cycliophora, Gastrotricha, etc.), most parasites (e.g., parasitic Nematoda, Acanthocephala, Cestoda, etc.) and Insecta. Meiofauna are uncommon targets for collection because of their small size and equally uncommon taxonomic specialists who can identify them. Other taxa that have no species records for Cobscook Bay, but were reviewed to be included are most microfauna (e.g., Branchiopoda, Branchiura, Copepoda, Ostracoda, Tardigrada, etc.), Echiura, Aplacophora, and Tanaidacea. Size alone does not explain the lack of species records. In many cases, the lack of records probably results from these groups not having been the focus of collections and/or identifications. Species records of these groups exist from other localities in the Gulf of Maine, so their absence from Cobscook Bay was somewhat unexpected. 2004 T.J. Trott 267 The higher taxa within each phylum are arranged according to the most recently published phylogeny in Brusca and Brusca (2003). Phyla that follow a different scheme based on cladistic analysis are Polychaeta (Fauchald and Rouse 1997, Rouse and Fauchald 1997) and Platyhelminthes (Tyler et al. 2005). Publications of the American Fisheries Society were used to organize Mollusca and Cnidaria, and Hayward (2001) was used for Ectoprocta. Sponges were organized according to the classification of Hooper and van Soest (2002). Species are always listed in alphabetical order within their families. Species reported in this inventory are listed with the following style and format: Accepted Species Name Author, Date Accepted Species Name Abbreviated Records(s) Previously used name Abbreviated Record(s) Bold italics are used to identify accepted species names with their authorities. The format that follows is a chresonomy, i.e., a list of usages of names analogous to a “chrestomathy” in literary fields. These fall into five categories: a) identical to current usage and written in regular italics; b) using the same trivial epithet, but in combination with a different generic name (alternative combination) or at a different rank (species versus subspecies or variety); c) synonyms (which can also have alternate ranks, combinations, and misspellings); d) misapplications of names (i.e., misidentifications); and e) misspellings. Regular italics are associated with accepted names of species, and roman font for names used previously. All are followed by abbreviated records that are defined in a key to the abbreviations at the end of each phylum. Each abbreviation refers to the source of a record along with the date of publication. While unconventional for unpublished records, years that donated species lists were assembled are also reported to help complete a timeline for collections of species they refer to. These also appear in the Literature Cited along with published records. Taxonomic information about particular species is referenced by footnotes annotated at the end of each phylum. The value of this style and format is the inclusion of names of species associated with the sources used to construct this inventory. What results is a historical timeline of the occurrence of species in Cobscook Bay that starts with discovery and continues through past and recent records for each species. This timeline of occurrence is only as perfect as the intensity and focus of collections. Another benefit of the format is that ecologists, physiologists, and general biologists can use this species list to avoid the detective work of tracing previously used names along a twisted thread of sometimes obscure publications to determine currently accepted names. In this regard, the inventory's utility extends beyond Cobscook Bay since many species occur elsewhere in the Gulf of Maine (Trott and Larsen 2003). 268 Northeastern Naturalist Vol. 11, Special Issue 2 Cobscook Bay Marine Invertebrate Checklist It is hoped that the scientific community, educators, students, planners, and interested laymen will find the information contained in the following pages useful in understanding the diverse community of animals found within Cobscook Bay.

Alvania castanea is not otherwise known south of Hudson Bay and Warén (1974) shows that O. mighelsii is often misidentified as A. castanea or Cingula arenaria. 3Generic placement by Gulbin and Golikov (2000) . 4Transferred to Epitoniidae by Warén (1980). 5Records of turriculata in the Western Atlantic are generally either Propebela arctica or P. nobilis. Since the former is a northern species but the latter is known from Cobscook Bay, the records for both Lora turriculata and Propebela turriculata are tentatively assigned to Propebela nobilis according to G. Rosenberg, Academy of Natural Sciences (pers. comm.). 6Unidentified species at the time of collection by Riser in 1970. 7According to Thompson and Brown (1984), the species “coronata” is primarily Eastern Atlantic with Western Atlantic examples distinctive and possibly a different species. 8This species is otherwise known only from the Eastern Pacific. 9This species not otherwise known north of Massachusetts. 10Needs confirmation. This species is not otherwise known north of Maryland. 11Needs confirmation according to G. Rosenberg, Academy of Natural Sciences (pers. comm.). This deepwater species is not otherwise known north of Massachusetts and though possibly confused with Odostomia bushiana Bartsch, 1909, a species known from shallower water, O. bushiana also is not known north of Massachusetts (G.

Trott 317 Acknowledgments A great debt is owed to those who gave their time freely in reviewing the many lists of species in various stages of preparation and elevated my knowledge of taxonomy and systematics well beyond its former scope. Much appreciation is given to Professor Nathan Riser for making himself available for conversations that contributed towards the formation of this list and providing a historical perspective of his years teaching invertebrate zoology at Cobscook Bay. His colleagues in teaching, Emory Swan, Norman Meinkoth, and Patricia Morse, took part in composing the species list that he donated to this work. Peter F. Larsen continued these discussions with development of ideas on diversity that imparted renewed effort towards the completion of this document and the beginning of new manuscripts. Thanks to Dr. Cheryl Bright, Collections Manager at the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, for encouragement and offering suggestions for taxonomic reviewers. Linda Ward, Curator at the NMNH, supplied collection records for Webster and Benedict, and Chad Walter, Data Manager at the NMNH, supplied collection records for Cobscook Bay. Valuable assistance was given by Eric Lazo-Wasem, Curator of the invertebrate collection at the Peabody Museum. Without the efforts of Professor Rachel Merz, the contributions made by Professor Norman Meinkoth would not have made their way into this manuscript and may have been forever lost.
