摘要:

多毛类环节动物是海洋底栖生物群落的重要类群之一, 在海洋生物监测、海水养殖、底栖食物链网、生态评估和生态修复中起着重要的作用。本文根据我国学者首篇记述中国海域多毛类物种文献、首次发表新种文献和首篇博士论文的年份, 将中国海域多毛类环节动物物种多样性研究分为3个阶段。第一阶段(1933-1961年)我国学者尚未发现新种, 但记述了几十种多毛类; 第二阶段(1962-2007年)发现了49新种, 但没有专门的博士和硕士学位论文; 第三阶段(2008-2022年)发现了120新种, 有博士和硕士学位论文。从1933年至2022年, 我国学者发现的新种和新记录种数量呈上升趋势, 但在不同时间段, 特别是在第二阶段有较大波动。目前, 我国多毛类物种多样性研究存在一些科、属、种的分类地位存疑, 一些科、属的分类亟待研究, 一些新种未被世界海洋物种目录(World Register of Marine Species)接受等问题。鉴于存在的问题, 本文建议在我国加强多毛类数据库建设, 加强多毛类物种多样性、遗传多样性和环境DNA研究。

Abstract

Background & Aims: Polychaetes constitute a vital component of the marine benthic community, playing an important role in the marine biological monitoring, mariculture, benthic food chain web, ecological assessment and ecological restoration. This study categorizes the investigation into species diversity of the polychaete annelids in the Chinese sea areas into three chronological stages based on the year of the initial species description, the publication of new species, and the inception of doctoral thesis on the subject.

Progress: During the first stage (1933-1961), Chinese scholars documented numerous polychaete species, although no new species were identified. The second stage (1962-2007) witnessed the discovery of 49 new species, although no dedicated doctoral or master’s thesis were produced. The third stage led to the identification of 120 new species, with doctoral or master’s thesis. From 1933 to 2022, the number of new species and new recorded species found by Chinese scholars showed an ascending trajectory, albeit with substantial fluctuations across different time spans, particularly notable in the second stage.

Proposal: At present, the study of polychaete species diversity in China encounters challenges related to the classification of certain families, genera, and species, with some requiring urgent attention. Furthermore, species families and genera demand in-depth exploration, while certain new species await acknowledgment from the World Register of Marine Species. Addressing these existing problems, this paper proposes to enhancement of the polychaete database and the argumentation of research pertaining to species diversity, genetic diversity, genetic variability, and environmental DNA in the Chinese context.
