Catalogue of the living Bivalvia of the eastern Pacific Ocean: Bering Strait to Cape Horn. Can. Spec. Publ. Fish. Aquat. Sci. 61:102 p. This work consists of a systematic catalogue and primary bibliography of the living Bivalvia of the eastern Pacific Ocean from Bering Strait, Alaska (66°N) to Cape Horn, Tierra del Fuego (60°S). 1308 species from the high intertidal zone to deep waters extending approximately two thousand kilometers offshore are included, representing the total de- scribed fauna. Synonymies for each species and its distribution updated from the recent literature and museum and private collections, are given. Also presented are the thermal range and fossil occurrence in the region, abstracted from the literature and collections. The bibliography lists sources of primary descriptions and replacement names at the specific level only. New species are not proposed, though six replacement names and various changes of suprageneric categories are suggested. The following nomenclatural changes are proposed: Anadara auricula nom. nov. pro Arca auriculata Sowerby, 1833 not Lamarck; Modiolus kurilensis nom. nov. pro Volsella difficilis Kuroda and Habe 1950 not Deshayes; Pecten berryi nom. nov. pro Pecten lunaris Berry 1963 not Renner; Petricola olssoni nom. nov. pro Petricola peruviana Olsson, 1961 not Jay; Semele clydosa nom. nov. pro Amphidesma punctatum Sowerby 1833 not Say; Astartacea superfamily nom. transi.; Axinopsidinae subfamily nov.; Borniinae subfamily nov.; Crassatellacea superfamily emend.; Eryciniinae subfamily nom. transi.; Glycymer- idacea superfamily nov.; Kelliinae subfamily nov.; Lasaeinae subfamily nom. transi.; Montacutinae subfamily nom. transi.; Mysellinae subfamily nov.; Orobitellinae subfamily nov.; Thecodontinae subfamily nov.; Thraciacea superfamily nom. transi.; Thyasirinae subfamily nov. Résumé BERNARD, F.R. 1983. Catalogue of the living Bivalvia of the eastern Pacific Ocean: Bering Strait to Cape Horn. Can. Spec. Publ. Fish. Agnat. Sci. 61:102 p. La présente publication contient un catalogue systématique et une bibliographie de base des Bivalvia existants du Pacifique oriental, depuis le détroit de Béring, en Alaska (66°N), jusqu'au cap Horn, en Terre de Feu (60°S). Elle comprend 1 308 espèces réparties de la zone intertidale supérieure aux eaux profondes jusqu'à environ 2 000 km au large et représentant le total de la faune décrite à ce jour. On y donne, pour chaque espèce, les synonymes et la répartition mise à jour d'après les récentes publications et les collections de musées ou privées. Sont inclus également les extrêmes de température où se trouvent ces espèces, ainsi que l'incidence de fossiles dans la région, ici encore extraits de la littérature et des collections. Dans la bibliographie, on indique les sources de descriptions originelles et les noms de remplacement seulement au niveau spécifique. Aucune nouvelle espèce n'est proposée, bien six noms de remplacement et divers changements de catégories supragénéri- ques soient suggérés. Nous proposons les changements suivants dans la nomenclature : Anadara auricula nom. nov. pro Arca auriculata Sowerby, 1833, non pas Lamarck; Modiolus kurilensis nom. nov. pro Volsella difficilis Kuroda et Habe 1950, non Deshayes; Pecten berryi nom. nov. pro Pecten lunaris Berry 1963, non Römer; Petricola olssoni nom. nov. pro Petricola peruviana Olsson, 1961, non Jay; Semele clydosa nom. nov. pro Amphidesma punctatum Sowerby 1833, non Say; super-famille Astartacea nom, transi.; sous-famille Axinopsidi- nae nov.; sous-famille Borniinae nov.; super-famille Crassatellacea emend.; sous-famille Eryciniinae nom. transi.; super-famille Glycymeridacea nov.; sous-famille Kelliinae nov.; sous-famille Lasaeinae nom, transi.; sous-famille Montacutinae nom, transi.; sous-famille Mysellinae nov.; sous-famille Orobitellinae nov.; sous-famille Thecodontinae nov.; super- famille Thraciacea nom. transi.; sous-famille Thyasirinae nov. vii Os Wand KN.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

  • The Marine Mollusca of Suriname (Dutch Guiana) Holocene and Recent
    THE MARINE MOLLUSCA OF SURINAME (DUTCH GUIANA) HOLOCENE AND RECENT Part II. BIVALVIA AND SCAPHOPODA by G. O. VAN REGTEREN ALTENA Rijksmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie, Leiden "The student must know something of syste- matic work. This is populary supposed to be a dry-as-dust branch of zoology. In fact, the systematist may be called the dustman of biol- ogy, for he performs a laborious and frequently thankless task for his fellows, and yet it is one which is essential for their well-being and progress".

List of corrections of Part I 93 5. Plates 94 6. Addendum 100 1. INTRODUCTION, SYSTEMATIC SURVEY AND PAGE REFERENCES In the first part of this work, published in 1969, I gave a general intro- duction to the Suriname marine Mollusca ; in this second part the Bivalvia and Scaphopoda are treated. The system (and frequently also the nomen- clature) of the Bivalvia are those employed in the "Treatise on Invertebrate Paleontology, (N) Mollusca 6, Part I, Bivalvia, Volume 1 and 2". These volumes were issued in 1969 and contain the most modern system of the Bivalvia. For the Scaphopoda the system of Thiele (1935) is used. Since I published in 1968 a preliminary list of the marine Bivalvia of Suriname, several additions and changes have been made. I am indebted to Messrs. D. J. Green, R. H. Hill and P. G. E. F. Augustinus for having provided many new coastal records for several species.

Wilson1, J. Zhang3,15 and N. J. Bax2,16 Abstract Background: Our knowledge of the benthic fauna at lower bathyal to abyssal (LBA, > 2000 m) depths off Eastern Australia was very limited with only a few samples having been collected from these habitats over the last 150 years. In May–June 2017, the IN2017_V03 expedition of the RV Investigator sampled LBA benthic communities along the lower slope and abyss of Australia’s eastern margin from off mid-Tasmania (42°S) to the Coral Sea (23°S), with particular emphasis on describing and analysing patterns of biodiversity that occur within a newly declared network of offshore marine parks. Methods: The study design was to deploy a 4 m (metal) beam trawl and Brenke sled to collect samples on soft sediment substrata at the target seafloor depths of 2500 and 4000 m at every 1.5 degrees of latitude along the western boundary of the Tasman Sea from 42° to 23°S, traversing seven Australian Marine Parks.

  • Reconnaître Les Principaux Bivalves Fouisseurs Ou Foreurs Au Moyen De Leurs Siphons
    Reconnaître les principaux bivalves fouisseurs ou foreurs au moyen de leurs siphons. 56 espèces Clé de détermination des 20 taxons les plus gros Yves MÜLLER Yves Müller Mai 2016 Reconnaître les principaux bivalves fouisseurs ou foreurs au moyen de leurs siphons. Dans la quasi-totalité des ouvrages traitant des mollusques lamellibranches (ou mollusques bivalves), ce sont les coquilles qui sont décrites (la conchyologie) avec principalement la description des charnières pour la classification. Pour les parties molles (la malacologie) ce sont les branchies qui sont utilisées. Ce qui n’est pas très accessible au plongeur même photographe ! Selon Martoja (1995) 75 % des espèces de bivalves vivent dans les fonds meubles. Certaines espèces trahissent leur présence par leurs siphons qui affleurent à la surface du sédiment, mais il est difficile, au cours d’une plongée, d’identifier les bivalves enfouis dans le sédiment. D’autres espèces de bivalves vivent dans des substrats durs (bois, roche). Ils forent alors une loge dans ce substrat et en général seuls les siphons sont visibles. Le même problème se pose, à quelle espèce appartiennent les siphons ? Selon Bouchet et al. (1978 :92): « Les siphons constituent un moyen de détermination des bivalves aussi fiable que la coquille et la charnière ». Des auteurs anciens comme Deshayes (1844-1848), Forbes et Hanley (1850-1853), Jeffreys (1863, 1865) et Meyer & Möbius (1872) et quelques autres plus récents comme Owen (1953 ; 1959), Purchon (1955a, b), Holme (1959) et Amouroux (1980) ont décrit les siphons de plusieurs espèces. La plupart des espèces de bivalves mesurent entre un et plusieurs centimètres mais les siphons sont pour la plupart courts ou très fins et rétractiles au moindre danger, donc difficilement observables en plongée.

  • The West African Enigma: Systematics, Evolution, and Palaeobiogeography of Cardiid Bivalve Procardium
    The West African enigma: Systematics, evolution, and palaeobiogeography of cardiid bivalve Procardium JAN JOHAN TER POORTEN and RAFAEL LA PERNA Poorten, J.J. ter and La Perna, R. 2017. The West African enigma: Systematics, evolution, and palaeobiogeography of cardiid bivalve Procardium. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 62 (4): 729–757. Procardium gen. nov. is proposed for a group of early Miocene to Recent large cardiids in the subfamily Cardiinae. The type species is Cardium indicum, the only living representative, previously assigned to the genus Cardium. It is a mainly West African species, with a very limited occurrence in the westernmost Mediterranean. Procardium gen. nov. and Cardium differ markedly with regard to shell characters and have distinct evolutionary and biogeographic histories. Six species, in the early Miocene to Pleistocene range, and one Recent species are assigned to the new genus: Procardium magnei sp. nov., P. jansseni sp. nov., P. danubianum, P. kunstleri, P. avisanense, P. diluvianum, and P. indicum. During the Miocene, Procardium gen. nov. had a wide distribution in Europe, including the Proto-Mediterranean Sea, Western and Central Paratethys and NE Atlantic, with a maximum diversity during the Langhian and Serravallian. Its palaeobio- geographic history was strongly controlled by climate. During the Langhian stage, warm conditions allowed the genus to reach its highest latitude, ca. 54° N, in the southern North Sea Basin. With cooling, its latitudinal range gradually retreated southward, becoming mainly Mediterranean in the Pliocene–Pleistocene, and West African at present. Key words: Bivalvia, Cardiidae, systematics, Neogene, Quaternary, Africa, Europe.

JAY A. SCHNEIDER Accepted 7 June 1995 Schneider, J.A. 1995. Phytogeny of the Cardiidae (Mollusca, Bivalvia): Protocardiinae, Laevicar- diinae, Lahilliinae, Tulongocardiinae subfam.n. and Pleuriocardiinae subfam.n.—Zool. Scr. 24: 321-346. In a preliminary cladistic analysis of the bivalve family Cardiidae (Schneider 1992), members of the subfamilies Protocardiinae, Lahilliinae, and Laevicardiinae, plus the genus Nemocardium, were found to be the least derived taxa of cardiids. A cladistic analysis is undertaken of the genera and subgenera of these cardiid taxa, plus several Mesozoic taxa which have never been assigned to any subfamily. The Late Triassic Tulongocardium, which is placed in Tulongocardiinae subfam. n., is the sister taxon to all other cardiids. Protocardiinae is restricted to the genus Protocardia. Most other Mesozoic taxa which have been placed in the Protocardiinae are found to be members of the Lahilliinae. Nemocardium is placed in the Laevicardiinae. Incacardium, Pleuriocardia, and Dochmocardia form a monophyletic group, Pleuriocardiinae subfam. n. Pleuriocardiinae, Laevi- cardiinae, and the remaining members of the Cardiidae (herein informally termed "cucardiids") form a monophyletic group. Jay A.
