Kiwaidae

Kiwa is a genus of marine decapods living at deep-sea hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. The animals are commonly referred to as "yeti lobsters" or "yeti crabs", after the mythical yeti. The genus is placed in its own family, Kiwaidae, in the superfamily Chirostyloidea.

Two species have been described: Kiwa hirsuta discovered in 2005, and Kiwa puravida, discovered in 2006. A third species, known colloquially as the "Hoff crab", has been discovered on the East Scotia Ridge, and named Kiwa tyleri after its discoverer, Paul Tyler of Southampton University. although analysis of mitochondrial and nuclear rDNA markers confirm that it is genetically distinct from K. hirsuta. The same data suggest a divergence time for the two species of 12 million years ago. In 2011 a very similar morph to the one collected at the East Scotia Ridge was collected from vents on the South West Indian Ridge.

Based on the presence of sulphur-oxidising bacteria on the setae of both K. hirsuta and the new species, they may both feed on bacteria in addition to scavenging. For K. puravida, the bacteria have been identified and the feeding behaviour observed, as well as a cyclical rhythmic motion of the crab documented that is suspected to increase the flow of methane and sulfide, the bacterial food, towards the bacteria. The two sexes of the new species prefer different temperatures, with males seeming to prefer warmer water and egg-carrying females and juveniles preferring the coldest.

Kiwa (mythology)

Kiwa is one of several male divine guardians of the ocean in the traditions of some Māori tribes of the East Coast of the North Island of New Zealand.

A poetic name for the Pacific Ocean is Te moana nui a Kiwa (The great ocean of Kiwa). Kiwa's first wife, in some of these traditions, was Parawhenuamea, ancestor of streams that flow from the land to the sea and of fresh water generally. Kiwa's second wife was Hinemoana (Ocean woman), a personification of the sea. Kiwa and Hinemoana had a number of children.

Children

The names and numbers of their children vary in different accounts. One version names ten children and for most of these, gives details about the creatures they gave rise to:

Pipihura, ancestor of the cockle.

Te Uru-kahikahika, source of eels, lampreys and frostfish.

Wharerimu, ancestor of seaweed.

Hine-tapiritia, ancestor of certain molluscs and oysters.

Te Raengawha, origin of sea urchins, as well as various fishes.

Te Kiri-pakapaka, origin of the snapper and the gurnard.

Diminished responsibility
You're de ninth person to see
To be suspended in a seventh
Major catastrophe

Augmented by the sharpness of your
See what I'm going through
