Shell-Bearing Molluscs of the Uji Islets.
Saburo MuRAYAMA* and Kunio HlRATA**
Abstract
On the fauna of the shell-bearing molluscs of the Uji Islets, there is a report by Hirata(1954), where 106 species were listed3). The present survey was carried out from 20th to 30th, September, 1964 by Murayama, one of the members of the research group about the marine population and the fishing ground around the Islets, and added 48 species to the previous list. The Islets is uninhabited. It is composed of two main islets which have rocky cliffs and a few stony poor beaches, protected by many rocks. The molluscan fauna of the Islets corresponds to such environment. Four families include decisively abundant species: Muricidae 22, Cypraeidae 16, Conidae 15, and Trochidae 13 species; and the other families include less than 6.
List of the Species Asterisks indicate that the specimens were got by the present survey for the first time.

Zoogeographical Discussion and Conclusion The Islets ara washed by the Tsushima Currant, the most powerful branch of the Kuroshiwo Currant, which gives deep effects to the fauna. Only 5 out of these 154 species ara restricted to Japan proper. 11 Pecten puncticulatus Dunker ^-fA 2^ *54 Astralium heimburgi (Dunker) id-tf- y y y X 66 Amalthea conica Schumacher 4- 9 y\X* *93 Turritriton aegrotum (Reeve) 9 9 x) ^ y 115 Purpura siro (Kuroda) is vis A is Ten species are distributed from Ryukyu Islands to the southern half of Japan proper. 10 Pteria loveni (Dunker) 7 ^ y s\X* *17 Saxostrea chemnitzi (Hanley) s<^if$- 20 Chama dunkeri Lischke *rA YyifA *38 Collisella langfordi Habe *£ a*?y *44 Tegula argyrostoma turbinata (A.
