The degree of isolation of oceanic islands makes these environments an excellent model for evolutionary studies. Proper knowledge of the species composition of oceanic islands, however, is required to better understand evolutionary processes (e.g. speciation events). A 3-year survey in the shallow waters (up to 30 m) of the Trindade and Martin Vaz oceanic insular complex, and a literature review on the data published for these islands and for Fernando de Noronha and São Pedro and São Paulo oceanic archipelagos have been conducted to document the biodiversity of echinoids and holothuroids from these isolated Brazilian oceanic islands. Sixteen species were collected and characterized morphologically, including two first records for the South Atlantic and one for Brazil. Comparison with conspecific specimens from the Brazilian coast and congeners was also done. Species richness increased from six to 18; the richness in Trindade Island being the highest among the South Atlantic oceanic islands. However, these islands remain undersampled beyond 30-m depth. Endemism was very low, suggesting the potential role of oceanic currents and seamounts as stepping-stones in transoceanic dispersal of species to remote islands. The Brazilian oceanic islands are impoverished oceanic outposts of the Brazilian Province; nevertheless, endemic species and intraspecific morphological variations compared with the mainland suggest they may also be regions of speciation. Documenting their biodiversity is critical for effective management and conservation of their marine ecosystems.

Este guia ilustrado apresenta 57 espécies de Echinodermata Bruguière, 1791 [ex Klein, 1734] registradas na porção sul do Embaiamento Sul Brasileiro (ESB), incluindo o litoral sul do Estado de São Paulo, todo o litoral do Paraná e norte de Santa Catarina. O guia destina-se a pesquisadores e estudantes que atuam ou gostariam de atuar com o grupo e serve de auxílio na identificação em campo e laboratório. Apresentamos uma caracterização do filo Echinodermata, uma breve descrição da área de estudo, técnicas de coleta e preservação dos exemplares. Para cada classe, são apresentadas caracterizações com as principais estruturas morfológicas de importância taxonômica, seguida das diagnoses das espécies registradas na ESB. Dentro de cada classe, as espécies foram organizadas por família e depois alfabeticamente de acordo com o gênero e a espécie. Para cada espécie foram incluídas fotos, diagnoses, distribuição geográfica e hábitat quando disponíveis em literatura. Esse trabalho é o primeiro guia ilustrado de equinodermos no Brasil e complementa de forma consistente o conhecimento da biodiversidade do grupo, gerando subsídios para futuras intervenções, tomadas de decisões e manutenção da diversidade deste incrível grupo de animais marinhos.Palavras chave: Equinodermos, sul do Brasil, diversidade, Sudoeste Atlântico, Taxonomia.

We present a species list of echinoderms from Araçá Bay, state of São Paulo. Altogether, 863 specimens belonging to 25 species, 19 genera, and 13 families were exhaustively collected during three years in consolidated and non-consolidated substrate. Ophiuroidea was the most representative taxon with 16 species, follow by Asteroidea with four species, Echinoidea with three, and Holothuroidea with two species. The brittle stars Amphiura kinbergi and Ophiothela cf. mirabilis are new records for Araçá Bay. We confirm that Araçá Bay is one of the best known area of echinoderm diversity in Brazil considering that the perimeter (3 km) of the bay corresponds to only 0.03% of the Brazilian coastline (8500 km). This work complements the knowledge of Araçá Bay biodiversity and supports future interventions, management and maintaining the diversity of this wonderful group of marine animals.
