Issn 0141 - 4593 5441 3 ISSN 0141 - 4593 5441 3 The Conchological Society of Great Britain and Ireland (Founded 1876) Papers for Students No. 7 (revised 2nd edition’) GUIDE TO SELECTED LITERATURE ON BRITISH MOLLUSCA b y Stella M. Turk, M.Sc., F„Z.S. INTRODUCTION Since the publication of the first edition of this list (Papers for Students No. 7 , 1969) a wealth of material has been published. Recent issues of the Mollusca Section of the Zoological Record list three to four thousand books and papers for many countries, some of which concern British Mollusca, but this list must be very selective with about tx/o hundred titles. Emphasis is on identification, but works on various other aspects of the study of Mollusca are included (there are no faunal lists, which may be a subject for a future Paper for Students). Basic texts will indicate more detailed references on particular topics. As different works are needed for different ages and stages, introductory guides for beginners are listed as well as specialised treatises for advanced students. SOURCES FOR OBTAINING AND CONSULTING LITERATURE LIBRARIES: Local libraries are linked through county library services to the national inter-library loans system, so that it is possible to obtain most papers and books from other county libraries a.nd national and academic libraries. MUSEUMS: Some museums have general works on Mollusca, and most ha,ve regional publications, some of which contain local lists. ENVIRONMENTAL RECORD CENTRES: With the backing of the Biological Rccords Centre, there are many regional centres, usually in county museums, which are a source for manuscript material as well as references to published work. BOOKSELLERS: Catalogues of new and antiquarian booksellers serve to form reference lists and may be collected with this in mind. There is great variation in the prices of second-hand books, so it is as well to get in touch with many firms, at home arjd abroad. PHOTOCOPY & MICROFILM SERVICES: Local and national libraries now supply copies. The General Library of the British Museum (Natural History) has a photocopying unit and supplies copies by post. SOCIETIES AND THEIR PUBLICATIONS: Back numbers of publications axe often available, at reduced cost for members. Addresses of national societies can usually be obtained from the Council for Nature or larger public libraries. Authors of papers in scientific journals can "buy copies of their articles as off-prints, which form a "basis of exchange with other authors, but one should not request such off-prints lightly.

Abstract Background: Among metazoans, retention of functional diet-derived chloroplasts (kleptoplasty) is known only from the sea slug taxon Sacoglossa (Gastropoda: Opisthobranchia). Intracellular maintenance of plastids in the slug's digestive epithelium has long attracted interest given its implications for understanding the evolution of endosymbiosis. However, photosynthetic ability varies widely among sacoglossans; some species have no plastid retention while others survive for months solely on photosynthesis. We present a molecular phylogenetic hypothesis for the Sacoglossa and a survey of kleptoplasty from representatives of all major clades. We sought to quantify variation in photosynthetic ability among lineages, identify phylogenetic origins of plastid retention, and assess whether kleptoplasty was a key character in the radiation of the Sacoglossa.

Several developmental stratégies have been adopted by marine MEDITERRANEAN PALEOCLIMATE prosobranch gastropods, tbat can fall into two fundamental catégories : 1) planktotrophic development, with larvae feeding on plankton ; 2) non-planktotrophic development, with larvae that reach metamorphosis without feeding on plankton and usually spend less time or no time at ail in the plankton. Presently, the Northeast Atlantic prosobranch fauna includes a large number of pairs of sibling species differing mainly or only in developmental strategy.

The geographical distribution of the Rissoidae in the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea was compiled and is up-to-date until July 2011. All species were classified according to their mode of larval development (planktotrophic and nonplanktotrophic), and bathymetrical zonation (shallow species—those living between the intertidal and 50 m depth, and deep species—those usually living below 50 m depth). 542 species of Rissoidae are presently reported to the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, belonging to 33 genera.

Sea slugs of Peru: Peruvian-Chilean faunal ele- ments (Mollusca, Heterobranchia). Spixiana 37 (1): 45-59. The Peruvian marine invertebrate fauna is thus far poorly investigated referring to sea slugs. From recent surveys along the entire Peruvian coast we present new distributional data on those 15 benthic opisthobranch gastropod species that were formerly known from Chilean waters. Our findings include 12 nudibranch, 1 ce- phalaspidean and 2 sacoglossan species. These are the first records for Peru of 7 species, such as Janolus rebeccae and Hancockia schoeferti. Known distributional ranges are extended to the north for 9 species, in case of Polycera priva for more than 3000 kilometres; the latter was formerly considered as a Magellanic species en- demic to southern Chilean fjords. Photographs of living specimens as well as de- scriptions of habitats and biological observations are given. We also present the first record of splanchnotrophid copepods from Peru, infesting the aeolid nudi- branch Phidiana lottini. Some further data and discussions are provided for species with insufficient or disputed information available. Michael Schrödl, SNSB – Zoologische Staatssammlung München, Münchhausen- str.

Many people were involved in this journey, but key characters are three. Luca Marini, director of “Secche di Tor Paterno” Marine Protected Area, shared the project idea of field research on molluscs and trusted me in accomplishing the task. Without his active support in finding funds for the field activities this project would have not started. It is no exaggeration saying I would not have even thought of entering the PhD without him. Bruno Sabelli, my PhD advisor, is another person who trusted me above reasonable expectations. Witness of my childhood love for shells, he has become witness of my metamorphosis to a researcher. Last, but not least, Manuela, my wife, shared my objectives and supported me every single day despite the family challenges we had to face. Many more people helped profusely. I sincerely hope not to forget anyone. Marco Oliverio, Sabrina Macchioni, Letizia Argenti and Roberto Maltini were great SCUBA diving buddies during field activities. Betulla Morello, former researcher at ISMAR-CNR in Ancona, was my guide through the previously unexplored land of non-parametric multivariate statistics.
