海鞘纲为发展,进化,生态学,天然产物等领域的研究提供了基本机会。本文综述了海鞘纲的生物多样性,重点介绍了海鞘纲的分类学、主要生物多样性区域和分布格局。基于对文献和在线世界海洋物种登记册中登记的物种的分析,我们收集了2815个描述物种的列表。最多的种类和科是在Aplousobranchia。Didemnidae和Styelidae科的物种数量最多,每个组都有500多个。60%的物种是殖民地的。热带地区的物种丰富度最高,其中殖民物种占主导地位。在高纬度地区,独居物种对物种丰富度的贡献逐渐增加。我们强调物种丰富度和采样努力之间的强关联,并讨论入侵物种的风险。我们的清单肯定是不完整的,因为世界上许多地区的海鞘动物群相对较少,每年都有许多新物种被发现和描述。
The class Ascidiacea presents fundamental opportunities for research in the fields of development, evolution, ecology, natural products and more. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current knowledge regarding the global biodiversity of the class Ascidiacea, focusing in their taxonomy, main regions of biodiversity, and distribution patterns. Based on analysis of the literature and the species registered in the online World Register of Marine Species, we assembled a list of 2815 described species. The highest number of species and families is found in the order Aplousobranchia. Didemnidae and Styelidae families have the highest number of species with more than 500 within each group. Sixty percent of described species are colonial. Species richness is highest in tropical regions, where colonial species predominate. In higher latitudes solitary species gradually contribute more to the total species richness. We emphasize the strong association between species richness and sampling efforts, and discuss the risks of invasive species. Our inventory is certainly incomplete as the ascidian fauna in many areas around the world is relatively poorly known, and many new species continue to be discovered and described each year.
