Pendola 62, IT-53100 Siena, Italy 3Corresponding author. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This study describes the fauna of the marine enchytraeid genus Grania at two locations on the Australian Great Barrier Reef: Lizard and Heron Islands. Collections were made from 1979 to 2006, yielding four new species: Grania breviductus sp. n., Grania regina sp. n., Grania homochaeta sp. n. and Grania colorata sp. n.. A re-description of Grania trichaeta Jamieson, 1977 based on new material is also included, along with notes and amendments on G. hyperoadenia Coates, 1990 and G. integra Coates & Stacey, 1997, the two latter being recorded for the first time from eastern Australia. COI barcode sequences were obtained from G. trichaeta and G. colorata and deposited with information on voucher specimens in the Barcode of Life database and GenBank; the mean intraspecific variation is 1.66 % in both species, while the mean interspecific divergence is 25.54 %. There seem to be two phylogeographic elements represented in the Great Barrier Grania fauna; one tropical with phylogenetic affinities to species found in New Caledonia and Hong Kong, and one southern (manifested at the more southerly located Heron Island) with affinities to species found in Southern Australia, Tasmania and Antarctica.

  • Scacchi, Species Solecurtidae
    BASTERIA, 58: 35-40, 1994 Solecurtus multistriatus (Scacchi, 1835), a good marine bivalve species from the Mediterranean Sea (Bivalvia, Heterodonta: Solecurtidae) Paolo Mariottini 1 Istituto di Scienze Biochimiche, Universita di Parma, 1-43100 Parma, Italy Carlo Smriglio Via di Valle Aurelia 134, 1-00167 Rome, Italy & Cesare Ciommei Via Montebruno 12, 1-00168 Rome, Italy Solecurtus multistriatus (Scacchi, 1835) from the Mediterranean Sea is here reported as a bona fide species; the authors give additional data about its morphology, ecology and distribution. Key words: Bivalvia, Solecurtidae, Solecurtus, morphology, distribution, Mediterranean Sea, Italy. INTRODUCTION In the Mediterranean Sea the genus Solecurtus Blainville, 1824, is represented by three species: S. scopula (Turton, 1822), S. strigilatus (Linne, 1758) and S. multistriatus (Scacchi, 1835). The last taxon was based by Scacchi (1835) (and not Scacchi, 1834, according to Cretella et ah, 1992) on a fossil specimen collected near Gravina, Puglia (Italy). Here the original description is given: "Testa ovali-oblonga, subaequilatera, antice oblique striata, striis approximatis angulo acuto in/lexis. Lata lin. 8, alta lin. 3". In the description 'lin.' (which stands for linea) is a standard size unit. The one adopted by the authors of that time corresponded to 2.25 mm; but, in this case, it is also possible that 'linea' represents a local Sicilian size unit (1.8 mm) as reported by Giannuzzi-Savelli et al. (1986). The author clearly stated that this species differs from the fossil and Recent specimens of "Solene bianco del Renieri" candidus of S. and of [S. (Renier, 1804), synonym scopula] "Solene strigilato" (S. strigilatus) . Nowadays the status of S.

Buth, Chair Several species of fishes have been introduced into the Santa Clara River system in southern California, including Catostomus santaanae (Santa Ana sucker), Catostomus fumeiventris (Owens sucker), Gila orcutti (arroyo chub), and Pimephales promelas (fathead minnow). These species are known to inhabit similar ecological niches but little is known about their associated parasite fauna. Two C. fumeiventris, 35 C. santaanae, 63 hybrid catostomids, 214 G. orcutti, and 18 P. promelas were collected and necropsied in the summers of 2017 and 2018. Nine macroparasite taxa were harvested including seven native, and two nonnative parasites Schyzocotyle acheilognathi (Asian fish tapeworm) and Lernaea cyprinacea (anchor worm). Prevalence and intensity of parasites were not related to the genetic history of these catostomids. This is the first host-association record for G. orcutti with Gyrodactylus sp., S. acheilognathi, ii diplostomid metacercariae, Rhabdochona sp, Contracaecum sp., and larval acuariid cysts and for P.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PATTERNS IN
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PATTERNS IN DIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTION OF BENTHIC MOLLUSCS ALONG A DEPTH GRADIENT IN THE BAHAMAS Michael Joseph Dowgiallo, Doctor of Philosophy, 2004 Dissertation directed by: Professor Marjorie L. Reaka-Kudla Department of Biology, UMCP Species richness and abundance of benthic bivalve and gastropod molluscs was determined over a depth gradient of 5 - 244 m at Lee Stocking Island, Bahamas by deploying replicate benthic collectors at five sites at 5 m, 14 m, 46 m, 153 m, and 244 m for six months beginning in December 1993. A total of 773 individual molluscs comprising at least 72 taxa were retrieved from the collectors. Analysis of the molluscan fauna that colonized the collectors showed overwhelmingly higher abundance and diversity at the 5 m, 14 m, and 46 m sites as compared to the deeper sites at 153 m and 244 m. Irradiance, temperature, and habitat heterogeneity all declined with depth, coincident with declines in the abundance and diversity of the molluscs. Herbivorous modes of feeding predominated (52%) and carnivorous modes of feeding were common (44%) over the range of depths studied at Lee Stocking Island, but mode of feeding did not change significantly over depth. One bivalve and one gastropod species showed a significant decline in body size with increasing depth. Analysis of data for 960 species of gastropod molluscs from the Western Atlantic Gastropod Database of the Academy of Natural Sciences (ANS) that have ranges including the Bahamas showed a positive correlation between body size of species of gastropods and their geographic ranges. There was also a positive correlation between depth range and the size of the geographic range.
