Giraldes, bweltergiraldes@qu.edu.qa J. Antonio Baeza, baeza.antonio@gmail.com Lysmata arvoredensis sp. nov. inhabits temperate waters in the south coast of Brazil and is named in tribute to the Marine Protected Area REBIO Arvoredo. This is the fourth species belonging to the genus Lysmata recorded for the region and the ninth for Brazil. L. arvoredensis sp. nov. can be distinguished from other species of Lysmata by the presence of a nearly completely fused accessory branch with a single free unguiform segment on the outer antennular flagellum; a rostrum with seven dorsal (2+5) and three ventral teeth; a stylocerite with a pointed tip bearing mesial setae; a second pereiopod with 22–24 carpal subsegments and 14–16 subsegments in the merus; a merus of the third pereiopod with five ventrolateral and 12 ventral spines on the propodus; and its color pattern, with red bands and patches in pleonites 2–3 that resemble a mask in dorsal view. Molecular characters demonstrate that L. arvoredensis sp. nov. is most closely related to other species of Lysmata belonging to the Neotropical and Cleaner clades. To support future ecological studies in the region, identification keys to the species of Lysmata recorded in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean are provided.

Distributed under Creative Commons CC-BY 4.0 INTRODUCTION Shrimps belonging to the genus Lysmata Risso, 1816 are commonly traded in the aquarium industry (Calado et al., 2003; Baeza & Behringer, 2017) because of their beautiful coloration, ability to remove ectoparasites from reef fishes (Karplus, 2014), and capability to control pests in aquaria (Rhyne, Lin & Deal, 2004). In the last decade, the genus How to cite this article Giraldes et al. (2018), Lysmata arvoredensis nov. sp. a new species of shrimp from the south coast of Brazil with a key to species of Lysmata (Caridea: Lysmatidae) recorded in the southwestern Atlantic. PeerJ 6:e5561; DOI 10.7717/peerj.5561 has received considerable attention: several new species have been described (Rhyne, Calado & Dos Santos, 2012; Gan & Li, 2016) and complexes of cryptic species have been partially resolved (Rhyne & Lin, 2006; Baeza & Behringer, 2017). Furthermore, a series of studies focusing on the phylogeny of the genus coupled with behavioral experiments have improved our understanding regarding the evolution of hermaphroditism in caridean shrimps (Baeza, 2009, 2010, 2013; Fiedler et al., 2010; Baeza & Fuentes, 2013; De Grave et al., 2014). Currently, a total of 45 species are recognized worldwide (De Grave & Fransen, 2011; Rhyne, Calado & Dos Santos, 2012; Soledade et al., 2013; Gan & Li, 2016; Prakash & Baeza, 2017; De Grave & Anker, 2018) and eight of them have been recorded in Brazil: L. ankeri Rhyne & Lin, 2006 and L. bahia Rhyne & Lin, 2006 previously misidentified as L. wurdemanni (Gibbes, 1850) (Rhyne & Lin, 2006); L. grabhami (Gordon, 1935) previously misidentified as L. amboinensis (de Man, 1888) (Kassuga, Diele & Hostim-Silva, 2015); L. moorei (Rathbun, 1901) (Coelho et al., 2006; Coelho Filho, 2006); L. jundalini Rhyne, Calado & Dos Santos, 2012 previously misidentified as L. cf. intermedia (Kingsley, 1878) (Rhyne, Calado & Dos Santos, 2012; Terossi et al., 2018); the Indo-Pacific L. vittata (Stimpson, 1860) improperly described as a new species (i.e., L. rauli Laubenheimer & Rhyne, 2010) (Laubenheimer & Rhyne, 2010; Soledade et al., 2013); Lysmata cf. lipkei Okuno & Fiedler, 2010, described from Japan (Okuno & Fiedler, 2010) and likely representing a second nonindigenous species in the region (Pachelle et al., 2016); and L. wurdemanni (Gibbes, 1850) (Terossi et al., 2018). In this study, we describe a new species of Lysmata from the south coast of Brazil. To support future ecological studies in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean, identification keys to species belonging to the genus Lysmata present in Brazil are provided. One key is based on morphology and a second key is based on color pattern. MATERIAL AND METHODS Specimens were collected in the SW Atlantic Ocean, close to Calhau de São Pedro Islet, Santa Catarina, Brazil (27 25′37.39″S 48 40′11.15″W). A group of specimens of different sizes was captured from an Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) which was deployed at 20 m depth for a few months at the collection site, therefore acting as an artificial reef. Collected specimens were transported alive to the Laboratory of Crustáceos e Plâncton (LCP), Department of Ecologia e Zoologia, Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC) for detailed observation of their coloration and color pattern (Fig. 1). Specimens were then preserved in ethanol and studied under a stereomicroscope. The holotype and paratypes were deposited in the National Museum of Rio de Janeiro (MNRJ) and in the Zoological Collection of UFSC (LCP/UFSC). Postorbital carapace length (pocl) and carapace length, including rostrum (cl), were used as measurements of body size and expressed in millimeters. We were interested in revealing the phylogenetic position of the new species within the genus Lysmata. Thus, we conducted molecular phylogenetic analyses using a portion of the 16S mitochondrial DNA fragment. A total of 28 sequences; two sequences from two specimens of Lysmata arvoredensis sp. nov. and 27 sequences each from other species belonging to the Neotropical, Cosmopolitan, Cleaner, and Morpho-variable clades of peppermint shrimps were included in the present phylogenetic analyses.

(2009). In short, all PCR reactions had a final volume of 20 mL, and contained one mL of the DNA template, one mL of each primer (forward and reverse), and 17 mL of Promega GoTaq Green Master Mix. PCR conditions were initial 95  C denaturation for 2 min; then 40 cycles of 95  C denaturation for 30 s, 47  C annealing for 1 min, and 72  C extension for 1 min, and a final extension at 72  C for 5 min. The size and quality of PCR products were visualized on 1.5% agarose gels. PCR products were then Giraldes et al. (2018), PeerJ, DOI 10.7717/peerj.5561 3/21 purified using SephadexTM G-50 spin columns. Samples were sequenced using BigDye 3.1 with an automatic sequencer ABI3500 at the Universidade Federal do Paraná (Laboratório de Dinâmica Evolutiva e Sistemas Complexos). Both strands of each sample were sequenced, and then proofread and compiled in Geneious 10.1.3 (Biomatters, Auckland, New Zealand). Alignment of each set of sequences was conducted in MUSCLE (Edgar, 2004) as implemented in MEGA 7.0 (Kumar et al., 2016). The aligned sequences did contain various indels. Thus, we identified positions that were highly divergent and poorly aligned in this 16S gene segment using the software GBlocks v0.91b (Castresana, 2000) and we omitted them from the analyses. After highly divergent positions were pruned, the 16S consisted of 513 bp (88% of the original 582 positions). Next, the aligned gene fragments were analyzed with the software jModelTest 2.1.10 (Guindon & Gascuel, 2003; Darriba et al., 2012) that compares different models of DNA substitution in a hierarchical hypothesis–testing framework to select a base substitution model that best fits each dataset. The optimal model identified by jModelTest (selected with the corrected Akaike Information Criterion, Akaike, 1974) was TPM3uf+G (-lnL = 4280.3454). The calculated parameters were as follows: assumed nucleotide frequencies A = 0.3214, C = 0.1332, G = 0.2067, T = 0.3388; substitution rate matrix with A–C substitution = 0.4427, A–G = 4.7502, A–T = 1.000, C–G = 0.4427, C–T = 4.7502, G–T = 1.0, and rates for variable sites assumed to follow a gamma distribution (G) with shape parameter = 0.2350. Next, we used the webserver W-IQ-TREE (Trifinopoulos et al., 2016, http://iqtree.cibiv.univie.ac.at/) for maximum likelihood (ML) analysis and the software MrBayes (Huelsenbeck & Ronquist, 2001) for Bayesian inference (BI) analysis. As the model selected by jModelTest2 was not available on the webserver W-IQ-TREE (Trifinopoulos et al., 2016, http://iqtree.cibiv.univie.ac.at/), we conducted the ML analysis with the GTR+G evolutionary model that was included within the 95% confidence interval calculated by JModelTest2. All the parameters used for the ML analysis in W-IQ-TREE server were those of the default options. In MrBayes, the analysis was performed for 6,000,000 generations. Every 100th tree was sampled from the MCMC analysis obtaining a total of 60,000 trees and a consensus tree with the 50% majority rule was calculated for the last 59,900 sampled trees. The robustness of the ML tree topologies was assessed by bootstrap reiterations of the observed data 1,000 times. Support for nodes in the BI tree topology was obtained by posterior probability values.

Calhau de São Pedro Island (27 25′37.39″S 48 40′11.15″W), Santa Catarina, southern Brazil. Etymology. The new species is named after the REBIO Arvoredo, a Marine Protected Area from which the studied specimens were collected. Distribution. Presently known only from the type locality. Habitat. Natural habitat unknown. All specimens were collected from an ADCP, deployed at 20 m for 2 months, acting as an artificial reef substrate. The above suggests that the new species inhabit cavities in hard bottoms. Behavior. That large and small animals were collected together suggests that this species is gregarious. Phylogenetic results. The molecular data matrix comprised a total of 513 characters, of which 175 were parsimony informative, for a total of 28 terminals. The analyses conducted with different molecular phylogenetic inference methods (ML and BI) resulted in similar tree topologies (Fig. 5). The new species L. arvoredensis sp. nov. (two specimens) clustered together into a monophyletic clade with other species of Lysmata belonging to the Neotropical and Cleaner clades (Baeza & Fuentes, 2013). Remarks. This new species increases to 46 the total number of species belonging to the genus Lysmata described worldwide (De Grave & Fransen, 2011; Rhyne, Calado & Dos Santos, 2012; Soledade et al., 2013; Gan & Li, 2016; Prakash & Baeza, 2017; De Grave & Anker, 2018) and increases to nine the number of species recorded in Brazil (Chace, 1972; Coelho et al., 2006; Rhyne & Lin, 2006; Soledade et al., 2013; Kassuga, Diele & Hostim-Silva, 2015). L. arvoredensis sp. nov. is the fourth species of the genus Giraldes et al. (2018), PeerJ, DOI 10.7717/peerj.5561 10/21 Figure 5 Phylogenetic tree for shrimps from the genus Lysmata.

Full-size  DOI: 10.7717/peerj.5561/fig-5 reported for the temperate waters of Santa Catarina in the south of Brazil (Christoffersen, 1998; Bond-Buckup & Buckup, 1999; Boos et al., 2012; Giraldes & Freire, 2015). In our phylogenetic analyses, L. arvoredensis sp. nov. clustered together and formed a monophyletic clade with other species belonging to the previously recognized Neotropical and Cleaner clades (Baeza et al., 2009). Furthermore, the tree topologies supported a sister relationship between L. arvoredensis sp. nov. and congeneric species belonging to the Cleaner clade. However, this relationship was not well supported by both ML and BI analyses. Importantly, L. arvoredensis sp. nov. differs considerably both in terms of morphology and coloration from species belonging to the Cleaner clade. All cleaner shrimps exhibit conspicuous color patterns; L. debelius Bruce, 1982 has a deep scarlet red coloration in the entire body (Bruce, 1982) while L. amboinensis and L. grabhami are yellow and possess dorsal longitudinal red and white bands (Hayashi, 1975; Chace, 1997; Baeza, 2010; Kassuga, Diele & Hostim-Silva, 2015). The color pattern of the new species is rather dull in comparison. Furthermore, L. debelius has a relatively long rostrum that reaches beyond the intermediate segment of the antennular peduncle, has a dorsal formula of 2+3 teeth, the scaphocerite extends far beyond the antennular peduncle, and the second pereiopod exhibits two subsegments in the merus and 16 in the Giraldes et al. (2018), PeerJ, DOI 10.7717/peerj.5561 11/21 carpus (Bruce, 1982). In turn, L. arvoredensis sp. nov. has a shorter rostrum (just reaching the middle of the intermediate segment of the antennular peduncle), has a dorsal formula of 2+5 teeth, the scaphocerite slightly extends beyond the antennular peduncle, and the second pereiopod has 11–16 subsegments in the merus and 22–24 subsegments in the carpus. L. debelius is the only congener recorded with a longitudinal middle-dorsal line of setae on the telson (Bruce, 1982), similar to L. arvoredensis sp. nov. (Fig. 2G). L. amboinensis and L. grabhami are very similar, having a relatively long rostrum (~0.8 times the carapace length), a pterygostomial spine, a very long antennular peduncle with a first segment ~0.5 as long as the carapace and a second segment twice as long as the third. Also, the stylocerite in L. amboinensis and L. grabhami is very short, not nearly reaching midlength of the basal segment, and the carpus of the second pereiopod has 19–21 subsegments (Hayashi, 1975; Chace, 1997). In L. arvoredensis sp. nov., the rostrum is shorter than in L. amboinensis and L. grabhami (~0.48 times the carapace length), the pterygostomial spine is absent, the first segment of the antennular peduncle is ~1/3 as long as the carapace, the second segment is short, almost as long as the third segment, the stylocerite reaches the end of the basal segment, and the carpus of the second pereopods have 22–24 subsegments. L. nayaritensis and L. californica also exhibit several morphological similarities with the new species, including the accessory branch nearly completely fused with the outer antennular flagellum (Wicksten, 2000). Furthermore, the color pattern of L. nayaritensis is very similar to that of L. arvoredensis sp. nov. (Fig. 4G). However, L. nayaritensis has a relatively long rostrum (0.6 times its carapace length, exceeding the second segment of the antennular peduncle) and a short stylocerite (~0.75 times the length of the first segment of antennular peduncle). In L. nayaritensis, the dorsal rostrum formula is 1+5–6, the exopod of the third maxilliped is less than 0.5 times the length of the antepenultimate segment, and the second pereiopod has 15–18 subsegments in the merus. By contrast to L. nayaritensis, L. arvoredensis sp. nov. has a rostrum (0.48 times the carapace length) that does not reach the end of the second segment of the antennular peduncle. The dorsal rostrum formula is 2 +4–5, the stylocerite is relatively long, almost reaching the distal end of the first segment of the antennular peduncle, the exopod of the third maxilliped is 0.5 times the length of the antepenultimate segment, and the second pereiopod has 11–16 subsegments in the merus. With respect to color pattern, L. arvoredensis sp. nov. features relatively thin reddish dorsal bars (1/3 of each pleuron) in the second and third abdominal segments, forming a mask (Fig. 4F). In turn, L. nayaritensis exhibits thicker dorsal bands in the abdominal segments. Dorsally, in pleonites 2–5, L. nayaritensis features two short longitudinal lines of chromatophores located anterior to the band that forms a shape similar to the letter “U” in each segment (Fig. 4G). L. californica presents a pterygostomial tooth, the scaphocerite overreaches the antennular peduncle by nearly the length of the last segment, the spine in the scaphocerite strongly overreaches the blade, and the second pereiopod has more than 25 (25–32 or 27–29) subsegments in the carpus (Chace, 1997; Wicksten, 2000). By contrast to L. californica, L. arvoredensis sp. nov. does not have a pterygostomial tooth, the scaphocerite slightly overreaches the antennular peduncle, the spine in the Giraldes et al. (2018), PeerJ, DOI 10.7717/peerj.5561 12/21 scaphocerite does not overreaches the blade, and the second pereiopod has less than 25 (22–24) subsegments in the carpus. The color pattern of L. californica is also different from that of L. arvoredensis. While L. arvoredensis sp. nov. exhibits transversal abdominal bands, L. californica bears longitudinal abdominal bands/lines (Wicksten, 2012: 294 plate 2). Lysmata arvoredensis sp. nov. is superficially similar both in terms of color pattern (red abdominal transversal bands) and morphology (unguiform free segment in the accessory branch at the antennular flagellum) to species belonging to the unguiform clade (sensu Fiedler et al., 2010) or morpho-variable clade (sensu Baeza et al., 2009; Baeza, 2010; Baeza & Fuentes, 2013), including L. hochi Baeza & Anker, 2008, L. kuekenthali (de Man, 1902), and L. anchisteus Chace, 1972. Importantly, our phylogenetic analyses demonstrated that L. arvoredensis sp. nov. is genetically dissimilar from the species above. L. hochi, L. kuekenthali, and L. anchisteus can be easily distinguished from L. arvoredensis sp. nov. using a combination of various morphological traits, but most importantly, the dorsal rostral formula (Kubo, 1951; Chace, 1972, 1997; Baeza & Anker, 2008; Soledade et al., 2013). For instance, the dorsal rostrum formula is 2+3 in L. hochi, 1+3–4 in L. kuekenthali, and 1+4–5 in L. anchisteus. By contrast to the species above, the rostral formula is 2+4–5 in L. arvoredensis sp. nov. Lastly, L. arvoredensis sp. nov. is similar to L. uncicornis Holthuis & Maurin, 1952, a species for which no genetic information exist (Baeza & Anker, 2008; Chace, 1972). However, L. uncicornis differs from the new species with respect to the stylocerite that exhibit a series of denticules in the outer margin; the longer first pereiopod that exceeds the scaphocerite by nearly the length of the dactylus; the ventral margin of the propodus in pereiopods 3 and 4 with 6–8 setae, the ventral margin of the propodus in pereiopods 5 with 5 setae, the second pereiopod with a maximum of 14 and 28 subsegments in the merus and carpus, respectively, and the accessory branch of the antennular flagellum that is not fused (not distinguishable) before the unguiform free segment (Holthuis & Maurin, 1952). In L. arvoredensis nov. sp., the stylocerite is flat in the outer margin and exhibits mesial setae in the inner margin; the first pereiopod does not exceed the scaphocerite; the ventral margin of the propodus in pereiopods 3, 4, and 5 has 10–12, 9–12, and 9–12 setae, respectively; the second pereiopod has a maximum of 16 and 25 subsegments in the merus and the carpus, respectively, and the accessory branch of the antennular flagellum is fused (distinguishable) before the unguiform free segment. Key to species of Lysmata from the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean For L. vitatta (senior synonym of L. rauli), L. cf lipkei, L. jundalini, and L. wurdemanni, morphological characteristics from specimens collected in the southwestern Atlantic Ocean were used to develop a dichotomous key. Also, the color pattern of L. moorei has not been officially described. Here, we used the color pattern observed in specimens collected from tidepools in Atol da Rocas, an oceanic island off the Brazilian coast (Figs. 4H and 4I). These specimens were collected and identified by Thais P. Macedo and are deposited at the Zoological Collection of the UFSC (LCP/UFSC- 113). The color Giraldes et al. (2018), PeerJ, DOI 10.7717/peerj.5561 13/21 pattern exhibited by other species present in Brazil was taken from Gordon (1935), Hayashi (1975), D’Acoz (2000), Rhyne & Lin (2006), Coelho et al. (2006), Baeza (2010), Okuno & Fiedler (2010), Fiedler et al. (2010), Laubenheimer & Rhyne (2010), Rhyne, Calado & Dos Santos (2012), Soledade et al. (2013), Barros-Alves et al. (2015), Giraldes & Freire (2015), Kassuga, Diele & Hostim-Silva (2015), and Terossi et al. (2018). It must be highlighted that the color pattern of most species likely becomes less intense when specimens are subject to high intensity illumination (Wear & Holthuis, 1977; Calvo et al., 2016). As pointed before, we have noticed changes in color intensity depending upon illumination conditions in L. arvoredensis sp. nov. (Figs. 1A and 1C).

L. jundalini DISCUSSION The dichotomous keys either based on morphological traits or color patterns herein developed aim to support future ecological studies in the south-western Atlantic Ocean. Only a few in situ studies has explored the ecology of the genus Lysmata in the region although most species are often observed by scuba divers (Baeza et al., 2016). The genus Lysmata exhibits remarkable disparity in terms of ecology, social behavior, and mating systems (Chace, 1997; Rhyne & Lin, 2006; Baeza & Anker, 2008; Baeza et al., 2009; Baeza, 2010; Laubenheimer & Rhyne, 2010; Rhyne, Calado & Dos Santos, 2012; Baeza & Fuentes, 2013; Giraldes, Coelho Filho & Smyth, 2015). Furthermore, species that belong to the Cleaner clade have the ability to remove fish parasites (Rhyne, Lin & Deal, 2004; Karplus, 2014). The above suggests that species in the genus Lysmata can serve as bioindicators in reef ecosystems. We argue in favor of additional studies on the ecology and systematics of the species in the south-western Atlantic Ocean to set a baseline with which to monitor environmental health in the region.
