Abstract. Halirages helgae sp. nov. is recorded from the shelf slopes of the Norwegian Sea at depths of

1000 to 2600 m in the Arctic cold water masses. A total of 50 specimens were found at five stations. The

species differs from other known species in the genus Halirages Boeclc, 1871 by the bilobed posterior

margin of pereonite 7. A synoptic table to the northeast Atlantic species of Halirages is provided.

Introduction

MAREANO, a programme to develop a Marine Areal database for Norwegian waters, was initiated in

2005 and conducts physical, biological, and environmental mapping of the sea bottom within Norwegian

waters (Fig. 1). The programme procures information for an ecosystem-based management of Norway’s

coastal and offshore regions. MAREANO (www.mareano.no) is an ongoing program, and one of the

aims is to increase the knowledge of marine benthic species. Anew calliopiid species has been found at

five of the stations; we suggest placing the new species in the genus Halirages.

Calliopiidae is a large cosmopolitan family that includes 79 species in 26 genera worldwide (Barnard

& Karaman 1991). Arctic and subarctic regions are particularly rich in species of Calliopiidae (Barnard

& Karaman 1991; Weisshappel 2001). In the northeast Atlantic and Norwegian Arctic 12 genera have

been recorded in Calliopiidae, with three Haliragoides species (Sars 1883; Gurjanova 1951; d’Udekem

d’Acoz 2007) and eight Halirages species (Sars 1858,1877; Ohlin 1895; Kamenskaya 1980; Stephensen

1931; Gurjanova 1946; d’Udekem d’Acoz 2012).

Material and methods

Altogether 17 cruises have been undertaken from 2005 through 2013 in the MAREANO program; they

included 1013 video stations, of which 252 were physically sampled using a van Veen grab; 246 of

these stations also included sampling with a beam trawl and 201 with a Rothlisberg-Piercy (RP) sledge.

The survey area up until 2013 has covered 130,000 km 2 ; it has included the shelf and slope off the

coast of Nordland and Troms counties, parts of the SE Barents Sea and the banks off mid-Norway. The

material for this study was collected in 2008 and 2010. All samples were processed on board to facilitate

further handling and sorting. RP samples were decanted before being sieved at 4 mm, 1 mm, and 0.5 mm.

Only the decanted fractions were identified for this study. The samples were fixed in 4% borax-buffered

formalin and transferred to 75% ethanol after sorting in the lab. All material has been deposited in the

Bergen University Museum, Norway (ZMBN). Permanent slides were made with Faure’s medium, and

drawings were made with a tablet (Wacom Bamboo CTH-470) and Adobe Illustrator (Version CS 5.1)

as shown by Coleman (2003). Length measurements are from tip of rostrum to tip of telson.

A total of 50 specimens were found at five stations. The specimens are placed in the genus Halirages for

the following reasons: labrum rounded apically and acute dorsally, labium with small inner lobes, length

of mandible palp article 3 about half that of article 2. Coxal plates small, coxa 1 not expanded distally.

Diagnosis

Head with short rostrum, anteroventral corner with small projecting tooth. Eyes present, but very small,

whitish in alcohol. Article 3 of mandible palp about half the length of article 2. Pereonite 7, and in large

animals (> 11 mm) also pereonite 6 and pleonite 2, with weakly bilobed posterior margin. Length of

dactylus on first and second gnathopod about half that of propodus palm. Carpus longer than propodus.

Epimeral plate 2 with small tooth posteroventrally, and epimeral plate 3 with posterior corner rounded.

Uropods 1 and 2 biramous, with strong setae. Telson entire, longer than wide, acute.

Etymology

The species is named in memory of Helga Ringvold, for encouraging her c hil dren in their future

endeavours.

Distribution

This species has only been found in the northeast Atlantic, off northern Norway. It has been recorded at

some of MAREANO’s deepest stations, from 997 to 2,609 m, and only in cold water masses (NSAIW,

Norwegian Sea Arctic Intermediate Water) (Buhl-Mortensen et al. 2012), with mud as the dominant

sediment.

Discussion

The entire calliopiid family is in need of revision. Both Stephensen (1931) and d’Udekem d’Acoz

(2012) stated that the differences between Halirages and Apherusa are blurred. It can also be difficult to

separate Halirages and Haliragoides morphologically (Sars 1895; Stephensen 1931; M. Thurston pers.

comm.), but differences regarding cephalic lobes, antennal calceoli and the rami on uropod 3 have been

suggested as characters useful for separating them. The head of Halirages helgae sp. nov. has a small

projecting tooth anterodistally. The damaged antennae show no calceoli (only females have been found,

and according to Stephensen (1931) and d’Udekem d’Acoz (2012) calceoli are probably present in all

males in Halirages but not always in the females).

The species fits more or less the characters of the genus Halirages, and in the present confused systematic

situation, it is preferable to assign it to this genus.

As many Calliopiidae, Halirages helgae sp. nov. is a brittle species. The specimens differ somewhat in

size (3-13 mm) and probably include both juveniles and adults. The species seems to be morphologically

closest to H. mixtus Stephensen, 1931 and H. gorbunovi Gurjanova, 1946, based on the absence of

dorsal spines. One should, however, take into consideration that thorough descriptions are lacking for

both species, and that H. gorbunovi is only known from its two mutilated type specimens, which actually

look similar to H. quadridentatus G.O. Sars, 1877 (d’Udekem d’Acoz 2012). The examined specimens

of H. helgae sp. nov. have a bilobed posterior margin on pereonite 7 and differ from H. gorbunovi in the

fact that coxae 1 and 2 are not ventrally serrate, and that H. helgae sp. nov. has eyes. The telson on H.

mixtus is emarginate and the posterior margin of epimeron 3 serrate, whereas the telson of H. helgae sp.

nov. is triangular with a blunt tip, and the posterior margin of the third epimeron is smooth.

Apart from H. mixtus and H. gorbunovi , six other species within Halirages are described from the

northeast Atlantic: H. fulvocinctus (M. Sars, 1858),//. quadridentatus, H. nilssoni Ohlin, 1895,//. caecus

Kamenskaya, 1980, H. cainae d’Udekem d’Acoz, 2012, and H. stappersi d’Udekem d’Acoz, 2012.

Halirages helgae sp. nov. differs from all these species by the bilobed posterior margin of pereonite 7.

The posteroventral corner of epimeral plate 2 is toothed and that of epimeral plate 3 rounded. See the

synoptic table (Table 1) for a more detailed compilation of how the characters are distributed.

It can be debated whether the species Haliragoides abyssi Gurjanova, 1951 (we have not been able to

study this as no specimens were available for study) should be transferred to the genus Halirages due

to the dissimilarity it shows with the two other Haliragoides species, described by Sars (1883) and

d’Udekem d’Acoz (2007). The head of H. abyssi does not have a large, sub-cephalic process as in the

other Haliragoides species. This species also seems to lack eyes. If H. abyssi is transferred to Halirages,

10

stappersi tally 2 pairs of between teeth con- tooth

subdistal teeth cave and serrate

Haliragoides none not bilobed not present acute (with smooth according weakly rounded yes small tooth

abyssi pointed apex) to figure of coxa 2
