  • Marine Snails of the Genus Phorcus: Biology and Ecology of Sentinel Species for Human Impacts on the Rocky Shores
    DOI: 10.5772/intechopen.71614 Provisional chapter Chapter 7 Marine Snails of the Genus Phorcus: Biology and MarineEcology Snails of Sentinel of the Species Genus Phorcusfor Human: Biology Impacts and on the EcologyRocky Shores of Sentinel Species for Human Impacts on the Rocky Shores Ricardo Sousa, João Delgado, José A. González, Mafalda Freitas and Paulo Henriques Ricardo Sousa, João Delgado, José A. González, MafaldaAdditional information Freitas and is available Paulo at Henriques the end of the chapter Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.71614 Abstract In this review article, the authors explore a broad spectrum of subjects associated to marine snails of the genus Phorcus Risso, 1826, namely, distribution, habitat, behaviour and life history traits, and the consequences of anthropological impacts, such as fisheries, pollution, and climate changes, on these species. This work focuses on discussing the ecological importance of these sentinel species and their interactions in the rocky shores as well as the anthropogenic impacts to which they are subjected. One of the main anthro- pogenic stresses that affect Phorcus species is fisheries. Topshell harvesting is recognized as occurring since prehistoric times and has evolved through time from a subsistence to commercial exploitation level. However, there is a gap of information concerning these species that hinders stock assessment and management required for sustainable exploi- tation. Additionally, these keystone species are useful tools in assessing coastal habitat quality, due to their eco-biological features. Contamination of these species with heavy metals carries serious risk for animal and human health due to their potential of biomag- nification in the food chain.

Aceptado el 24-V-2012 ABSTRACT A recent molecular study has shown that the well-known intertidal Cape Verde topshell, previ- ously identified as Osilinus punctulatus, O. tamsi or O. atratus, is a distinct undescribed species (DONALD,PRESTON,WILLIAMS,REID,WINNER,ALVAREZ,BUGE,HAWKINS,TEMPLADO &SPENCER, 2012). Therefore we describe it here as new for science and compare it to the closest species.

  • Major Ocean Currents May Shape the Microbiome of the Topshell Phorcus
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Major ocean currents may shape the microbiome of the topshell Phorcus sauciatus in the NE Atlantic Ocean Ricardo Sousa1,2,3, Joana Vasconcelos3,4,5, Iván Vera‑Escalona5, João Delgado2,6, Mafalda Freitas1,2,3, José A. González7 & Rodrigo Riera5,8* Studies on microbial communities are pivotal to understand the role and the evolutionary paths of the host and their associated microorganisms in the ecosystems. Meta‑genomics techniques have proven to be one of the most efective tools in the identifcation of endosymbiotic communities of host species. The microbiome of the highly exploited topshell Phorcus sauciatus was characterized in the Northeastern Atlantic (Portugal, Madeira, Selvagens, Canaries and Azores). Alpha diversity analysis based on observed OTUs showed signifcant diferences among regions. The Principal Coordinates Analysis of beta‑diversity based on presence/absence showed three well diferentiated groups, one from Azores, a second from Madeira and the third one for mainland Portugal, Selvagens and the Canaries. The microbiome results may be mainly explained by large‑scale oceanographic processes of the study region, i.e., the North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre, and specifcally by the Canary Current. Our results suggest the feasibility of microbiome as a model study to unravel biogeographic and evolutionary processes in marine species with high dispersive potential. During the last decades we have observed an increase in the number of studies trying to elucidate the role of spe- cies and the environment where they live due to research expeditions and the use of several modern techniques to identify species, including genetic-based techniques 1. Early studies based on genetics focused on the description of species and populations but soon afer the frst results, it was evident that genetic-based studies could also be used to identify and describe major biogeographic patterns as well as to create the pathway to evaluate new hypotheses and ecological questions 2–4.

  • Anatomy of Zetela Alphonsi Vilvens, 2002 Casts Doubt on Its Original Placement Based on Conchological Characters
    SPIXIANA 40 2 161-170 München, Dezember 2017 ISSN 0341-8391 Anatomy of Zetela alphonsi Vilvens, 2002 casts doubt on its original placement based on conchological characters (Mollusca, Solariellidae) Enrico Schwabe, Martin Heß, Lauren Sumner-Rooney & Javier Sellanes Schwabe, E., Heß, M., Sumner-Rooney, L. H. & Sellanes, J. 2017. Anatomy of Zetela alphonsi Vilvens, 2002 casts doubt on its original placement based on con- chological characters (Mollusca, Solariellidae). Spixiana 40 (2): 161-170. Zetela is a genus of marine gastropods belonging to the family Solariellidae (Vetigastropoda, Trochoidea). The species Zetela alphonsi Vilvens, 2002 was origi- nally described using classical conchological characters from samples obtained from deep water off Chiloé, Chile, but no other features were recorded in the original description. In the present paper, taxonomically relevant characters such as the operculum, radula, and soft part anatomy are illustrated and described for the first time from a specimen of Zetela alphonsi from a new locality, a methane seep area off the coast of central Chile. We find that many features differ substantially from other members of the genus, including several which deviate from characters that are diagnostic for Zetela. Zetela alphonsi also lacks retinal screening pigment, giving the appearance of eyelessness from gross examination. Although pigmenta- tion loss has been reported in other deep sea genera, this feature has not been re- ported in any other members of Zetela. We reconstructed a tomographic model of the eye and eyestalk, and demonstrate that a vestigial eye is still present but exter- nally invisible due to the loss of pigmentation. Based on these new morphological characters, particularly observations of the radula, we suggest that the current placement of this species in the genus Zetela should be reconsidered.

  • Holocene Climate Change in the Subtropical Eastern North Atlantic
    Holocene Climate Change in the Subtropical Eastern North Atlantic: Integrating High-resolution Sclerochronology and Shell Midden Archaeology in the Canary Islands, Spain A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in the Department of Geology of the College of Arts and Sciences by Wesley George Parker B.A., Geological Sciences, Ohio University, 2015 B.A., Global Studies – Latin America, Ohio University, 2015 Dissertation Committee Dr. Yurena Yanes, Chair Dr. Aaron Diefendorf Dr. Henry Spitz Dr. Donna Surge Dr. Amy Townsend-Small Dissertation Abstract High-resolution paleoclimate data are necessary to investigate climate mechanisms that operate at seasonal scale, like the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). The oxygen isotope (δ18O) composition of mollusk shells are a powerful paleoclimate proxy that records the highest (submonthly) resolution because: (1) shells are abundant and often well preserved in the geological and archeological record, (2) many shells grow almost continuously year-round, and 18 (3) the δ Oshell values of many mollusks record sea surface temperature (SST). The application of δ18O paleothermometry in new species and localities requires calibration studies to ensure that selected taxa reliably record SSTs. Additionally, anthropogenic and diagenetic alteration must be assessed to ensure the proper acquisition of paleotemperature data. Shells middens of the Canary Islands, located in the subtropical eastern Atlantic Ocean, provide a unique opportunity to generate novel high-resolution paleoclimate data over the last two millennia useful to assess variations in the NAO and its influence on coastal ecosystems and civilizations. Here I present four research projects that address the calibration and application of δ18O paleothermometry using two species of intertidal gastropods, Patella candei and Phorcus atratus.
