A single specimen (14.9 mm in standard length) of Trimma panemorfum Winterbottom and Pyle, 2022, a species recently described on the basis of three specimens from deep coral reefs off Palau, was collected from Okinawa Island, Ryukyu Islands, southern Japan. A description of the Japanese specimen, the first Japanese record of T. panemorfum, is provided, and the new standard Japanese name “Kosumosu-benihaze” proposed for the species.

A single specimen (31.7 mm in standard length) and an underwater photograph of Acentrogobius limarius Allen, Erdmann, and Hadiaty, 2015 (recently described from Batanta Island, West Papua, Indonesia) from Amami-oshima and Iriomote-jima islands, Ryukyu Islands, Japan, respectively, represent the first Northern Hemisphere records of the species, the former being the northernmost record. A full description of the specimen is given and the new standard Japanese name “Hokosaki-kirara-haze” proposed for the species.

Dolly, the first mammal cloned from a somatic cell, had shorter telomeres than age-matched controls and died at an early age because of disease. To investigate longevity and lifetime performance in cloned animals, we produced cloned cows with short telomeres using oviductal epithelial cells as donor cells. At 5 years of age, despite the presence of short telomeres, all cloned cows delivered multiple healthy offspring following artificial insemination with conventionally processed spermatozoa from noncloned bulls, and their milk production was comparable to that of donor cows. Moreover, this study revealed that the offspring had normal-length telomeres in their leukocytes and major organs. Thus, cloned animals have normal functional germ lines, and therefore germ line function can completely restore telomere lengths in clone gametes by telomerase activity, resulting in healthy offspring with normal-length telomeres.
