摘要
This paper reviews the taxonomic and biodiversity studies of deep-sea invertebrates in the South China Sea based on the samples collected by the Chinese manned deep-sea submersible Jiaolong.To date,6 new species have been described,including the sponges Lophophysema eversa,Saccocalyx microhexactin and Semperella jiaolongae as well as the crustaceans Uroptychus jiaolongae,Uroptychus spinulosus and Globospongicola jiaolongi;some newly recorded species from the South China Sea have also been reported.The Bathymodiolus platifrons-Shinkaia crosnieri deep-sea cold seep community has been reported by Li(2015),as has the mitochondrial genome of the glass sponge L.eversa by Zhang et al.(2016).The population structures of two dominant species,the shrimp Shinkaia crosnieri and the mussel Bathymodiolus platifrons,from the cold seep Bathymodiolus platifrons-Shinkaia crosnieri community in the South China Sea and the hydrothermal vents in the Okinawa Trough,were compared using molecular analysis.The systematic position of the shrimp genus Globospongicola was discussed based on 16S rRNA gene sequences.
