  • Early Ontogeny of Jurassic Bakevelliids and Their Bearing on Bivalve Evolution
    Early ontogeny of Jurassic bakevelliids and their bearing on bivalve evolution NIKOLAUS MALCHUS Malchus, N. 2004. Early ontogeny of Jurassic bakevelliids and their bearing on bivalve evolution. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 49 (1): 85–110. Larval and earliest postlarval shells of Jurassic Bakevelliidae are described for the first time and some complementary data are given concerning larval shells of oysters and pinnids. Two new larval shell characters, a posterodorsal outlet and shell septum are described. The outlet is homologous to the posterodorsal notch of oysters and posterodorsal ridge of arcoids. It probably reflects the presence of the soft anatomical character post−anal tuft, which, among Pteriomorphia, was only known from oysters. A shell septum was so far only known from Cassianellidae, Lithiotidae, and the bakevelliid Kobayashites. A review of early ontogenetic shell characters strongly suggests a basal dichotomy within the Pterio− morphia separating taxa with opisthogyrate larval shells, such as most (or all?) Praecardioida, Pinnoida, Pterioida (Bakevelliidae, Cassianellidae, all living Pterioidea), and Ostreoida from all other groups. The Pinnidae appear to be closely related to the Pterioida, and the Bakevelliidae belong to the stem line of the Cassianellidae, Lithiotidae, Pterioidea, and Ostreoidea. The latter two superfamilies comprise a well constrained clade. These interpretations are con− sistent with recent phylogenetic hypotheses based on palaeontological and genetic (18S and 28S mtDNA) data. A more detailed phylogeny is hampered by the fact that many larval shell characters are rather ancient plesiomorphies. Key words: Bivalvia, Pteriomorphia, Bakevelliidae, larval shell, ontogeny, phylogeny.

It all started in 1953 with the Fishing Boat Congress having sessions in Paris and Miami, the proceedings of which were published in " Fishing Boats of the World." A Processing Meeting followed in Rotterdam, Netherlands, in 1956, and a ,ear Congress was organized in Hamburg, Germany, in 1957.

Those two fishing boat congresses were, in a way, rather comprehensive, trying to cover the whole field of fishing boat design and also attracting participants from dzfferent backgrounds.

  • Spread of the Slipper Limpet Crepidula Fornicata (L. 1758) in Europe
    SCI. MAR., 61 (Sup 2): 109-118 SCIENTIA MARINA 1997 ECOLOGY OF MARINE MOLLUSCS. J.D. ROS and A. GUERRA (eds.) Spread of the slipper limpet Crepidula fornicata (L. 1758) in Europe. Current state and consequences* MICHEL BLANCHARD Laboratoire d'Écologie. Institut Français de Recherche et d'Exploitation de la Mer. BP 70-Plouzané-29280. France. SUMMARY: The present distribution of the slipper limpet Crepidula fornicata in Europe is described in detail for each country, and an overview provided thanks to new information. Main observations of introduction and spread, obtained from the literature, are discussed. For most of them, we observe that both aspects are due to oyster harvesting and farming. In the most heavily infested areas (France, England, the Netherlands), activities of dredging, harvesting and oyster farming have been disrupted. In France, these activities are so much hampered that treatment methods are now developed. Key words: Slipper limpet, Crepidula fornicata, invasions, Europe. RESUMEN: EXPANSIÓN DE LA SEBA CREPIDULA FORNICATA (L., 1758) EN EUROPA.

Se discuten las principales observaciones sobre la introducción y proliferación de esta especie, obtenidas de la bibliografía. En la mayoría, la ostreicultura es responsable de ambas fases. En las áreas más afectadas (Francia, Inglaterra, Holanda), el dragado y la ostreicultura se han visto perturbadas. El impacto de esta especie introducida sobre las activida- des marisqueras es muy importante, por lo que se deberían desarollar medios de erradicación.

    Quality Evaluation of Live Eastern Oyster (Crassostrea virginica) based on Textural Profiling Analysis, Free Amino Acids Analysis, and Consumer Sensory Evaluation by Jue Wang A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Science Auburn, Alabama August 1, 2015 Keywords: live eastern oyster, texture, free amino acids, consumer preference, linear regression Copyright 2015 by Jue Wang Approved by Yifen Wang, Chair, Professor of Biosystems Engineering and Affiliate Professor of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences William Walton, Associate Professor of Fisheries, Aquaculture and Aquatic Sciences Douglas White, Associate Professor of Nutrition, Dietetics, and Hospitality Management Peng Zeng, Associate Professor of Statistics, Mathematics and Statistics Abstract The consumption of live eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) has become an important part of the diet for consumers in the United States. Because large amounts of oysters are grown every year, it is necessary for oyster farmers to understand quality differences caused by different aquaculture methods, as well as quality changes over the time of cold storage. The objective of this study is to develop a set of systematic methods for quality evaluation of live eastern oysters. Qualities evaluation of three aquaculture-treated oysters (daily, weekly, and never) were by means of: 1) textural analysis, 2) free amino acids (FAAs) analysis and 3) consumer preferences by means of 1) textural analyzer, 2) high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and 3) consumer sensory evaluation. Besides, linear regression analysis with stepwise selection method was conducted to establish relationship between instrumental parameters (textural parameters and FAAs concentrations) and consumer preferences (texture likeability, flavor likeability and overall likeability) obtained from sensory evaluation.
