Gastropoda:Ovulidae VENUS 62 (1-2): 11-18, 2003 A New species of Aperiovula (Gastropoda: Ovulidae) Collected near the the Boso Peninsula, Japan Yoshihiro Yoshihiro Omi 4-20-8 4-20-8 Sendagaya, Shibuya-ku ,あわ 10 151 0051, Japan Abstract: Abstract: An ovulid gastropod collected from off the Boso P巴ninsula in Honshu, Japan, is is described as a new species Aperiovul α aurora. It is morphologically most similar to Aperiovula Aperiovula jeanae Cate, 1973, from which it can be distinguished by its thinner and transluc 巴nt shell and callously produced posterior terminal; the sharper and stronger denticles on on the n紅 rower outer lip; the wider aperture, and the lack of both a yellowish marginal line and and a funiculum. Keywords: Keywords: Ovulidae, new speci 巴s, Aperiovula aurora, Boso P巴ninsula Introduction A considerable numb 巴r of ovulid species have been described and recorded in Japan. The ovulid ovulid fauna of southern Kii Peninsula has been examined by Cate (1970, 1973, 1978a, 1978b), Cate Cate & Azuma (1971), and Azuma (1974a, 1974b, 1974c, 1975, 1976a, 1976b). The Boso and Miura Peninsulae are considered to be the northern distribution limits of many ovulids. Their ovulid ovulid fauna was well investigated by Mase (1989), who emphasized the importance of mantle color color pattern and sculpture in recognizing species. The present author has had a chance to examine examine two ovulid specimens collected at 200-300 m depth off the Boso Peninsula that do not re re pres 巴nt any species hitherto known from Japan. Further comparison with worldwide ovulid species species led to the conclusion that th 巴y represent a new speci 巳s. In terms of external features, this new species is considered to be most closely r巴lated to Aperiovula jeanae Cate, 1973, and is described described here.

Type Type locali 砂: Off Namuya, Boso Peninsula ,Japan , 200-300 m deep . E 砂mology :aurora ,“daybreak ” in Latin , for the rosy pink color of the shell . Discussion: Discussion: The holotype of new species is an adult female, c紅 rying a fully developed ov 訂 y and and albumen gland . Therefore , it is evident that new species does not form distinct funiculum even even at maturity. There is great intraspecific variability in shell color in ovulids. The shell shape and the structures surrounding the aperture are thus more significant for identification. The dorsal dorsal striation and funiculum are considered to be the most important features in this family. The lack of these features is a peculi む ity of this new species. Cate (1973) created the genus Aperiovula Aperiovula with Ovulum adriati cum Sowerby, 1828 as the type species , citing shells that are often often translucent, fairly large and thin , and that have broad of apertures, and minimal thickening of of the outer lip. This new species is here placed in Ap eriovula based on the presence of all these these features. Ten species (A. all ynsmithi Cate , 1978 , A. jeana e Cate , 1973 , A. m の1eri αna Cate , 1973 , A. pontia Cate , 1975 , A . robertsoni Cate , 1973, A . shikamai Cat 巴, 1973, A. taka e Cat 巴, 1973, 1973, A. takaeopsis Cate, 1978, A. testudiana Cate , 1978 A. yukitai Azuma, 1985) have been recorded recorded in the genus Aperiovula in Japan.

Omi among allied ovulids (exc 巴pt for Ovula and Phenacovolva spp.) of Japan. Mo 叩hologically the most similar species in the same genus may be Aperiovula jeanae Cate, 1973 (Fig. 2H-J) and Aperiovula Aperiovula shikamai Cate, 1973 (Fig. 2G). In A. shikamai Cate, 1973, shell is spherical, similar to A. A. aurora; however A. shikamai di 首位s in having a prominent funiculum and distinct transverse striations striations on the columella. There are also di 百erences in radula mo 中hology, i.e. A. shikamai has only only two outer cusps on the lateral teeth (Azuma, 1976: text-fig. 5), wh 巴reas A. aurora possesses five five to six smaller outer cusps. A. jeanae is similar in shape and distributed at almost the same vertical vertical range as A. aurora, but the latter can be distinguished from A. jeanae by the following features: features: (1) (1) The shell of A. jeanae is thicker, only slightly translucent, and purplish pink to white in color tinged tinged with yellowish orange at the marginal rim on dorsum. On the other hand, the shell of A. α urora is more inflated, thinner and translucent, and bears indistinct transverse red bands on reddish reddish pink ground color. (2) (2) A. aurora has a more pronounced and twisted posterior terminal than A. jeanae. (3) (3) A. jeanae has distinct funiculum callosity at the posterior end on ventral side (Fig. 4A). However, However, funiculum of A. aurora is almost absence (holotype; Fig. 4B) or exists only as a trace trace (paratype). 4) (4) In A. jeanae (Fig. 21), the labrum is thicker and more broadly developed, and the apert ぽ e is narrower. narrower. A. aurora (Fig. 2B, E) has very wide aperture and a narrower labrum. (5) (5) The columellar folds and labral denticles of A. jeanae are weak (Fig. 2J, Fig. 4C). However, A. aurora aurora has distinct columellar folds and sharp labral denticles (Fig. 2F, Fig. 4D). (6) (6) A. jeanae (Fig. 4C) has a prominent and convex fossula, whereas the same feature is weak and concave concave in A. aurora (Fig. 4D). Among the similar-looking ovulids hitherto known from Japanese waters, Crenavolva (SerratovuL α )imitabilis Cate, 1973 also resembles A.

  • Scientific Studies on Dry Tortugas National Park: an Annotated Bibliography
    ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 449 SCIENTIFIC STUDIES ON DRY TORTUGAS NATIONAL PARK: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY BY T.W. SCHMIDT AND L. PIKULA ISSUED BY NATIONAI, MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. OCTOBER 1997 SCIENTIFIC STUDIES ON DRY TORTUGAS NATIONAL PARK: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY Thomas W. schmidt1 and Linda pikula2 ABSTRACT Dry Tortugas National Park, located 110 km west of Key West, Florida, is an elliptical, atoll-like, coral reef formation, approximately 27 km long and 12 km wide with shallow water depths ranging from 12-20 m in channels between reefs. In 1935, the area was designated Fort Jefferson National Monument, the World's first underwater National Park unit. Central to the area is Fort Jefferson, America's largest coastal nineteenth century masonty fort. In 1992 it was re-designated Dly Tortugas National Park. Because of the islands' unique location, the first tropical marine biological laboratory in the Western Hemisphere was established on Loggerhead Key by the Carnegie Institution of Washington, Washington, D. C. Following the closure of the Tortugas Laboratory in 1939, aperiodic marine biological assessments have been conducted in response to man- made and natural environmental perturbations. This annotated bibliography is an attempt to provide researchers and resource managers with access to the rapidly accumulating body of information on the park's natural resources. A total of 424 references (published and unpublished) on scientific studies in, (and what later became) Dry Tortugas National Park were annotated and indexed according to major scientific topics. Studies from a wider area were included if they also sampled in Dry Tortugas National Park.

  • The Occurrence of Pseudosimnia Vanhyningi and Spiculata Bijuri in the Northeastern Brazil, with Comments on Their Taxonomy (Caenogastropoda, Ovulidae)
    Strombus(2007) - ISSN 0104-7531 The occurrence of Pseudosimnia vanhyningi and Spiculata bijuri in the northeastern Brazil, with comments on their taxonomy (Caenogastropoda, Ovulidae). Luiz Ricardo L. Simone Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo; Cx. Postal 42494; 04299-970 São Paulo, SP. Brazil; [email protected] Abstract This paper deals with two ovulid species collected at Canopus Bank, off Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil: Pseudosimnia vanhyningi (M. Smith, 1940) and Spiculata bijuri Cate, 1976. The samples consist of empty shells. This is the first time both have been reported on the northeastern Brazilian coast, therefore this is the southernmost record of them. Their taxonomy is revised based on the analysis of some variants of the shell that have been attributed to other species and genera. Aperiovula juanjosensii Perez & Gomez, 1997, and S. advena Cate, 1978, are proposed to be new synonyms of S. bijuri. Key words: Ovulidae, Pseudosimnia vanhyningi, Spiculata bijuri, new occurrence, Ceará, Brazil. Resumo Este artigo reporta duas espécies de ovulídeos coletadas no Banco de Canopus, ao largo de Fortaleza, CE. As amostras são constituídas de conchas vazias. Ambas são reportadas pela primeira vez no litoral nordeste brasileiro, sendo o registro mais sulino destas. As espécies são Pseudosimnia vanhyningi (M. Smith, 1940) e Spiculata bijuri Cate, 1976. A taxonomia destas é revisada baseada em variantes de concha que podem ser atribuídas a outras espécies e gêneros. Aperiovula juanjosensii Perez & Gomez, 1997 e S. advena Cate, 1978, são propostos como novos sinônimos de S. bijuri.

Giorgieri 10, 34100 Trieste 2 Via Vivaldi Traversa, 8 I-07041 Alghero (SS), Italy e-mail: [email protected] Abstract Molluscan species living in association with Corallium rubrum colonies are poorly known. Speci- mens found on the branches of red coral colonies located off Capo Caccia (Alghero – SS, West Sardinia, Mediterranean Sea) were studied by analyzing red coral branches collected at a depth of between 100 and 120 m; their assemblage was made up of 44 species, all belonging to the classes Gastropoda and Bivalvia. Some data on the geographical distribution, ecology, taxonomy and dominance of these species, both alive and dead, are given and the most interesting are commented on. Among the recorded species Triv- ia multilirata, Simnia purpurea, Coralliophila brevis, Ocinebrina paddeui, Pleurotomella demosia, Palli- olum striatum and Pseudamussium sulcatum deserve attention.

  • Catalog of Recent Molluscan Types in the Natural History Museum of Los
    CATALOG OF RECENT MOLLUSCAN TYPES IN THE NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY compiled by Lindsey T. Groves NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM OF LOS ANGELES COUNTY MALACOLOGY SECTION 900 Exposition Boulevard, Los Angeles, California, 90007, USA [email protected] [last updated 3 January, 2012] Abstract. Recent molluscan types currently housed in the Malacology Section of the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County are listed herein. Each type lot entry includes original species/subspecies name, original genus, author, original citation, type status, LACM number, number of specimens and preservation, type locality or collection locality, collector [if known], date collected [if known], and current taxonomic status if different from original description. INTRODUCTION This catalog is published in accordance with Recommendation 72F.4 of the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature (Ride & others, 2000:79). This listing includes all molluscan type material currently housed at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County and supercedes the type listing of Sphon (1971). To date 1922 molluscan type lots (71,000+ specimens) are reported for 1147 species and 99 subspecies, which includes 589 holotypes, 1277 paratype lots, 10 lectotypes, 13 paralectotype lots, 29 syntype lots, 3 neotypes, and 2 neotype lots in 550+ references. Type categories listed include: Holotype (in red), paratype(s) (in blue), syntype(s) (in orange), lectotype (in pink), paralectotype(s) (in aqua), and neotype and/or neotype lots (in brown) as defined by Ride & others (2000). Because the term cotype is not recognized by the ICZN, lots originally designated as cotype(s) (in green) by original specimen labels are now referred to as syntype(s).

  • Two New Species of the Family Ovulidae (Gastropoda) from Japan
    VENUS 64 (3-4): 141-149, 2005 Two New Species of the Family Ovulidae (Gastropoda) from Japan Yoshihiro Omi1 and Takeshi Iino2 14-20-8-4 Sendagaya, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo 151-0051, Japan; [email protected] 21-8-10-405 Daidominami, Higashi-yodogawa-ku, Osaka 533-0012, Japan Abstract: Two new species of the family Ovulidae are described from off the Kii Peninsula, from Kuchinoshima Island and the Oshima-Shin-Sone Bank, Japan. Primovula astra n. sp. is closely similar to Primovula oryza Omi & Clover, 2005 in overall morphology, but it can be distinguished by its non-beaked posterior extremity and different dorsal marking. Phenacovolva vitrea n. sp. is most similar to Phenacovolva tayloriana Azuma & Cate, 1971, but differs from it in forming short and callously rimmed terminals, and having less flared margin. Keywords: Ovulidae, new species, Japan, Primovula astra, Phenacovolva vitrea Introduction All ovulid species are ectoparasites on octocorallian coral, such as gorgonaceans, alcyonaceans and pennatulaceans. According to Imahara (1994), 621 octcorallians have been recorded from Japanese waters. The octocorallian fauna is known to be especially rich around the Kii Peninsula, which is strongly influenced by the Kuroshio Current and is home to 160 species (Kubota & Imahara, 2004). Reflecting the abundance of octocorallians, this area is also known to have a rich ovulid fauna. Among the 127 ovulid species that have been recorded from Japanese water, 58 species were described from the Kii Peninsula as the type locality, mostly in the years between 1970 and 1990 (Higo et al., 1999). More recently, additional new species were described by Omi & Clover (2005) and Omi (2003) from this area and the area influenced by Kuroshio Current.
