Darragh* and George W. Kendriek** ABSTRACT One scaphopod and 35 gastropod species are recorded from the Late Maastrichtian Miria Formation of the Carnarvon Basin, northwestern Australia. Preservation of the fossils suggests that the assemblage, which is inferred to contain herbivores, possible detrital feeders, graz.ers, predatory and ectoparasitic carnivores, is only partly representative of the original fauna. The original mineralogy of the shells has, in part, determined which mollusks have been preserved, their state at recovery, and whether or not they can be identified. Primary calcite has remained but argonite has been lost and partially replaced by secondary calcite. Six species are known only from internal moulds, Five new species - Conotomaria millacis sp. nov., Conolomaria (7) cypsela sp. nov., Leptomaria perallcisa sp.

  • Cenozoic Evolution of Muricidae (Mollusca, Neogastropoda) in the Southern Ocean, with the Description of a New Subfamily

Gastropods are among the most studied group in Antarctica, and taxa with an advanced status of systematic knowledge can be used as a model to study how oceanographic and cli- matic patterns shaped Recent faunal assemblages. Within the ongoing study of the muricid phylogeny, we have analysed molecular and morphological data from species traditionally ascribed to the muricid subfamily Trophoninae. Particularly, the availability of specimens collected in the Southern Ocean and surrounding basins allowed to demonstrate as the genera Pagodula, Xymenopsis, Xymene and Trophonella, which are traditionally classified in the Trophoninae, actually belong to a distinct lineage, for which the new subfamily Pago- dulinae is herein introduced. We propose and discuss a possible framework for the origin and radiation of Antarctic muricids.

  • Biology and Ecology of Hexacorallians in the San Juan Archipelago
    Biology and Ecology of Hexacorallians in the San Juan Archipelago Christopher D. Wells A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2019 Reading Committee: Kenneth P. Sebens, Chair Megan N. Dethier Jennifer L. Ruesink Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Biology Department ©Copyright 2019 Christopher D. Wells ii University of Washington ABSTRACT Biology and Ecology of Hexacorallians in the San Juan Archipelago Christopher D. Wells Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Kenneth P. Sebens Biology Department and School of Aquatic and Fishery Sciences Hexacorallians are one of the most conspicuous and dominant suspension feeders in temperate and tropical environments. While temperate hexacorallians are particularly diverse in the northeast Pacific, little work has been done in examining their biology and ecology. Within this dissertation, I describe a novel method for marking soft-bodied invertebrates such as hexacorallians (Chapter 1), examine the prey selectivity of the competitively dominant anemone Metridium farcimen with DNA metabarcoding (Chapter 2), and explore the distribution of the most common hard-bottom hexacorallians in the San Juan Archipelago (Chapter 3). In the first chapter, I found that both methylene blue and neutral red make excellent markers for long-term monitoring of M. farcimen with marked individuals identifiable for up to six weeks and seven months, respectively. I also found that fluorescein is lethal in small dosages to M. farcimen and should not be used as a marker. Neutral red could be used for long-term monitoring of growth and survival in the field, and in combination with methylene blue could be iii used to mark individuals in distinguishable patterns for short-term studies such as examining predator-prey interactions, movement of individuals, and recruitment survival.
