Early Ontogeny of Jurassic Bakevelliids and Their Bearing on Bivalve Evolution Early ontogeny of Jurassic bakevelliids and their bearing on bivalve evolution Nikolaus Malchus Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 49 (1), 2004: 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 Pteriomorphia 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 consistent 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.

De Pretis 30, 95039, Trecastagni, Catania, Italy; e-mail: [email protected] *Corresponding author ABSTRACT The earliest reported alien species that entered the Mediterranean after only nine years from the inauguration of the Suez Canal was “Meleagrina” sp., which was subsequently identified as the Gulf pearl-oyster, Pinctada radiata (Leach, 1814) (Bivalvia Pteriidae). Thereafter, an increasing series of records of this species followed. In fact, nowadays it can be considered a well-established species throughout the Mediterranean basin. Since the Red Sea isthmus was considered to be the only natural way of migration, nobody has ever doubted about the name to be assigned to the species, P. radiata, since this was the only Pinctada Röding, 1798 cited in literature for the Mediterranean Sea. Taxonomy of Pinctada is complicated since it lacks precise constant morphological characteristics to distinguish one species from the oth- ers. Thus, distribution and specimens location are particularly important since different species mostly live in different geographical areas. Some researchers also used a molecular phylogenetic approach, but the results were discordant.

NUMBER 2 206 JANUARY 29, I 965 Classification of the Bivalvia BY NORMAN D. NEWELL' INTRODUCTION The Bivalvia are wholly aquatic benthos that have undergone secondary degeneration from the condition of the ancestral mollusk (possibly, but not certainly, a monoplacophoran-like animal; Yonge, 1953, 1960; Vokes, 1954; Horny, 1960) through the loss of the head and the adoption of a passive mode of life in which feeding is accomplished by the filtering of water or sifting of sediment for particulate organic matter. These adapta- tions have limited the evolutionary potential severely, and most structural changes have followed variations on rather simple themes. The most evi- dent adaptations are involved in the articulation of the valves, defense, anchorage, burrowing, and efficiency in feeding. Habitat preferences are correlated with the availability of food and with chemistry, temperature, agitation and depth of water, and with firmness of the bottom on, or within, which they live. The morphological clues to genetic affinity are few. Consequently, parallel trends are rife, and it is difficult to arrange the class taxonomically in a consistent and logical way that takes known history into account. The problem of classifying the bivalves is further complicated by the fact that critical characters sought in fossil representatives commonly are concealed by rock matrix or are obliterated by the crystallization or disso- lution of the unstable skeletal aragonite.

EIRIN-LOPEZ1* 1Environmental Epigenetics Laboratory, Department of Biological Sciences, Center for Coastal Oceans Research, Institute of Water and Environment, Florida International University, 3000 NE 151st Street, North Miami, FL 33181; 2Research Unit in Environmental and Evolutionary Biology, Institute of Life- Earth-Environment, University of Namur, Rue de Bruxelles 61, B-5000 Namur, Belgium ABSTRACT Epigenetic analyses constitute an emerging approach for better understanding of the mechanisms underlying environmental responses and their role during acclimatization and adaptation across diverse ecosystems. The expansion of environmental epigenetic studies to a broader range of ecologically and environmentally relevant organisms will enhance the capability to forecast ecological and evolutionary processes, as well as to facilitate a retrospective assessment of stress exposures in biomonitor organisms through ‘‘epigenetic footprinting’’ analyses. With such purpose, the present study monitored spatial and temporal variation in abiotic parameters (temperature, salinity, pH, and horizontal visibility) over a 2-y period in a mangrove ecosystem located in North Biscayne Bay (North Miami, FL). The obtained data were subsequently compared with epigenetic modifications (global genome-wide DNA methylation levels) in the flat tree oyster Isognomon alatus, used as a sentinel model organism across experimental sites. The obtained results revealed a certain level of seasonality in temporal DNA methylation patterns, which seem to be primarily associated with changes in temperature and horizontal visibility.

  • Bivalve Pholadomya Gigantea in the Early Cretaceous of Argentina: Taxonomy, Taphonomy, and Paleogeographic Implications
    The bivalve Pholadomya gigantea in the Early Cretaceous of Argentina: Taxonomy, taphonomy, and paleogeographic implications DARÍO G. LAZO Lazo, D.G. 2007. The bivalve Pholadomya gigantea in the Early Cretaceous of Argentina: Taxonomy, taphonomy, and paleogeographic implications. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 52 (2): 375–390. Pholadomya gigantea is a widely distributed Early Cretaceous bivalve mollusc. It has been recorded in the North Tem− perate, Tethyan, and South Temperate Realms. Based on recent field work and newly collected material from the Neuquén Basin, the taxonomy, mode of occurrence and palaeobiogeography of this species is reviewed. In the Agrio For− mation (Valanginian–Barremian) P. gigantea is neither abundant nor dominant, but occurs throughout the unit. It was fa− cies−dependent being restricted to well−oxygenated waters and soft to firm, sandy and bioclastic substrates of shoreface to inner shelf environments. The life habit of P. gigantea was similar to that of Recent Pholadomya candida, deep burrow− ing and sedentary, but it has not a pedal gape and accessory muscle scars related to valve closure. Thus a suspension−feed− ing habit, not a pedal−feeding system, may be inferred as is commonly suggested in other Jurassic and Cretaceous Pholadomya species. Pholadomya agrioensis is a valid taxon that is recorded in the Berriasian–Valanginian of Neuquén. It is similar in outline to P. gigantea and had probably the same basic palaeoecology, even though it has a blunt anterior margin, deep umbonal−ventral sulcus and distinct anterior ornamentation. Once in life position this species was capable of further digging in the sediment. This species probably burrowed in muddy substrates in the offshore zone.

NEwELL* (Received Aprii 28, 1968) Abstract Permian bivalve molluscs ofJapan shed interesting new light on the paleontological com- position of the youngest, post-fusulinid, marine faunas of the highest Paleozoic, and the bivalves tend to bridge the gap between the uppermost Permian and the lowest Triassic occupied in most regions ofthe world by a hiatus. However, there is a noteworthy break, even inJapan, between the Permian and Triassic ,systems where there are no bivalve species in common between the Permian and Triassic. Ninety-six species belonging to 46 genera of bivalves are distinguished in theJapanese Perrnian. Among these, 58 species, ofwhich 18 are new, are described in this paper. TowaPteria, Ensi teria, Tambanelta, HayasakaPecten, and Gnjocardita are proposed herein as new genera, and PermoPerna is presented as a new subgenus of Waagenoperna. It is worthy of note that the bivalves did not decrease in number and diversity during the late Permian, in contrast to some other invertebrates, and that the late Permian Gujo Formation con- tains a mixed fauna of Permian and Triassic aspect. Some Mesozoic types, such as Neoschizodus, Costatoria and WaagemoPerna, appeared in the middle Permian Kanokura Series.
