The Forum is a high point of the Societies calendar and is always well attended. The event is always a refreshing, eclectic stimulus in the life of the Society. Presenters come from a wide range of countries (13 in this case) so it represents a really international cross-section of Malacological interest. The Society hopes that these meetings will allow the students to forge relationships and build networks which will help them secure a good future for themselves and for the subject they study. The focus of the Forum is on the work of early career research malacologists, usually but not always young. These are in effect the malacologists who will be carrying the torch of malacology through some difficult times., difficult for themselves and also for a taxonomic-interest Society. At the Forum, they present reports of work completed but also of work in prospect. If we are lucky, with repeat visits to the Forum, we see this work develop over the years, and if we are extra-lucky, the young presenter might then publish their work in our Journal of Molluscan Studies. If we are extra- extra lucky they might even become a member of Council. It is only by this kind of continuing interest in the subject of malacology and maintained allegiance to the Society that the Malacological Society of London can maintain its good works—for example, publishing the Journal, supporting mal- acologists with travel awards (see pages 24 & 28) , helpingNEWS to fund malacological research (see page 22) and convening open meetings concerning the study of molluscs (see page 26).

Noseworthy Vladivostok: Dalnauka 247 pp., 67 colour pls, 53 figs. Hardback, 18x25 cm. ISBN: 978-5-8044-1261-7 The molluscan fauna of the Sea of Japan (‘East Sea’ in Korea) is among the most well-studied in eastern Asia, as a result of the long history of study in Japan, Russia and more recently in Korea. For the first time, this English- language volume brings together the knowledge of the bivalves of its continental western coast, from Korea to Pri- morye and the Tatarsky Strait. A total of 367 species and subspecies are included in the catalogue; this relatively large total reflects the division of the enclosed sea by a frontal system into temperate and subtropical parts. For each species the distribution is given and taxonomic issues discussed. About 250 species are illustrated by excellent colour figures and line drawings, but no descriptions are provided. A useful part of this work for all malacologists interested in the region is the comprehensive bibliography of over 1100 references. David G.

Williams 1Deptartment of Zoology, Natural History Museum, London, UK 2Department of Biology, Imperial College London, Berkshire, UK 3 British Antarctic Survey, High Cross, Madingley Road, Cambridge, CB3 0ET, UK Email: [email protected] The trochoid family Calliostomatidae was traditionally comprised of two subfamilies: Calliostomatinae and Thysanodontinae. A third subfamily, Mar- garellinae, was recently described based on molecular studies that show Margarella spp. from Antarctica, traditionally assigned to the trochid sub- family Cantharidinae, also form a clade within the Calliostomatidae. The understanding of systematic relationships among these subfamilies is still in flux. In this study we use Bayesian inference based on sequence data from four genes to 1) examine the systematic relationships of subfamilies within the Calliostomatidae, 2) use DNA sequence data to delimit species within the most speciose genus, Calliostoma, and 3) investigate the histori- cal biogeography of Antarctic species from Margarella, Calliostoma and Fal- simargarita and assess the role of Antarctica as a source of diversity. This study represents the most comprehensive molecular phylogeny of the gas- tropod family Calliostomatidae to date, in terms of numbers of taxa and of gene sequences. A total of 470 sequences were obtained from representa- Calliostoma annulatum tives of the subfamilies Calliostomatinae, Margarellinae, and Thysanodonti- nae, together with nine species belonging to the Trochidae as outgroup taxa. One fossil record of Calliostoma was used to calibrate a molecular clock to examine patterns of divergence in calliosto- matids. The phylogeny demonstrates that all three recognised subfamilies are highly supported. Furthermore it was found that within the family Calliostomatidae there is strong support for three new subfamilies, including species of the genera Venustatrochus, Falsimargarita and an unnamed calliostomatid genus. Within the Calliostomatinae, a total of 55 Calliostoma species were identified using statistical methods to analyse DNA sequences. Analyses also showed that both Antarctica and tropical deep water are origins of species diversity in Calliostomatidae. The Antarctic species Calliostoma nudum clustered within the Calliostoma clade, but was sister to a clade from the East and West Pacific, with a divergence about 23 Ma. This coincides with the establishment of

  • From the Cape Verde Islands
    © Sociedad Española de Malacología Iberus, 30 (2): 89-96, 2012 A new species of Phorcus (Vetigastropoda, Trochidae) from the Cape Verde Islands Una nueva especie de Phorcus (Vetigastropoda, Trochidae) del archi- piélago de Cabo Verde José TEMPLADO* and Emilio ROLÁN** Recibido el 13-III-2012. 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. RESUMEN Un estudio reciente basado en técnicas moleculares ha demostrado que la especie intermareal de las islas de Cabo Verde previamente identificada como Osilinus punctulatus, O. tamsi u O. atratus, es en realidad una especie diferente no descrita (DONALD,PRESTON,WILLIAMS, REID,WINNER,ALVAREZ,BUGE,HAWKINS,TEMPLADO &SPENCER, 2012). Por lo tanto, la des- cribimos aquí como nueva para la ciencia y la comparamos con las especies más próximas. INTRODUCTION The more important and common al- logically (HICKMAN &MCLEAN, 1990) gal grazers of intertidal rocky sea-shores and genetically (DONALD,KENNEDY AND of the northeastern Atlantic Ocean and SPENCER, 2005) distinct from Monodonta Mediterranean Sea are limpets (of the and, based on molecular evidence, Osili- genera Patella and Cymbula), winkles (of nus has recently been moved into the the genera Littorina, Melarhaphe and subfamily Cantharidinae, separate from Echinolittorina) and topshells (of the gen- the Monodontinae and Trochinae (WI- era Gibbula and Phorcus).
