Accepted 11-V-2001) Abstract: The mollusks in Manuel Antonio National Park on the central section of the Pacific coast of Costa Rica were studied along thirty-six transects done perpendicular to the shore, and by random sampling of subtidal environments, beaches and mangrove forest. Seventy-four species of mollusks belonging to three classes and 40 families were found: 63 gastropods, 9 bivalves and 2 chitons, during this study in 1995. Of these, 16 species were found only as empty shells (11) or inhabited by hermit crabs (5). Forty-eight species were found at only one locality. Half the species were found at one site, Puerto Escondido. The most diverse habitat was the low rocky intertidal zone. Nodilittorina modesta was present in 34 transects and Nerita scabricosta in 30. Nodilittorina aspera had the highest density of mollusks in the transects. Only four transects did not clustered into the four main groups. The species composition of one cluster of transects is associated with a boulder substrate, while another cluster of transects associates with site.

The family is divided into four subfamilies. Two new subfamilîes are introduced as Prionovolvinae nov. and Aclyvolvinae nov. The apomorphism and the result of the study of the 16S rRNA gene are contro- versally concerning the Pediculariidae. Therefore, the Pediculariidae are excluded as subfamily from the Ovulidae.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PATTERNS IN
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PATTERNS IN DIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTION OF BENTHIC MOLLUSCS ALONG A DEPTH GRADIENT IN THE BAHAMAS Michael Joseph Dowgiallo, Doctor of Philosophy, 2004 Dissertation directed by: Professor Marjorie L. Reaka-Kudla Department of Biology, UMCP Species richness and abundance of benthic bivalve and gastropod molluscs was determined over a depth gradient of 5 - 244 m at Lee Stocking Island, Bahamas by deploying replicate benthic collectors at five sites at 5 m, 14 m, 46 m, 153 m, and 244 m for six months beginning in December 1993. A total of 773 individual molluscs comprising at least 72 taxa were retrieved from the collectors. Analysis of the molluscan fauna that colonized the collectors showed overwhelmingly higher abundance and diversity at the 5 m, 14 m, and 46 m sites as compared to the deeper sites at 153 m and 244 m. Irradiance, temperature, and habitat heterogeneity all declined with depth, coincident with declines in the abundance and diversity of the molluscs. Herbivorous modes of feeding predominated (52%) and carnivorous modes of feeding were common (44%) over the range of depths studied at Lee Stocking Island, but mode of feeding did not change significantly over depth. One bivalve and one gastropod species showed a significant decline in body size with increasing depth. Analysis of data for 960 species of gastropod molluscs from the Western Atlantic Gastropod Database of the Academy of Natural Sciences (ANS) that have ranges including the Bahamas showed a positive correlation between body size of species of gastropods and their geographic ranges. There was also a positive correlation between depth range and the size of the geographic range.

  • Shelling on Sint-Maarten/Saint Martin, the ‘Friendly Island ’: Part I: Introduction and Land Mollusca
    Shelling on Sint-Maarten/Saint Martin, the ‘Friendly Island ’: Part I: Introduction and land mollusca Delphine Clement, Patricia Nolf & Frank Nolf 1 1 Pr. Stefanieplein 43 B8 B-8400 Oostende [email protected] Neptunea, vol.14, n°1 1 May 2016 1 Introduction Geography Sint-Maarten/Saint Martin (SXM) is situated at 18°04' N, 63°04′ W and belongs to what is called the 'Windward Islands', together with Puerto Rico, Saba, the Virgin Islands and some other islands, in contrast to the 'Leeward Islands' Aruba, Curaçao and Bonaire north of Venezuela. Saint Martin is confined by the Atlantic Ocean in the north and by the Caribbean Sea in the south. Saint Martin belongs to the northernmost islands of the Lesser Antilles in the external volcanic arc. It consists of two parts: the French Saint-Martin in the north and the Dutch Saint Maarten in the south. The total area is 86 km², of which about 34 km² is inhabited by approximately 35,000 of people in the Dutch Saint Martin. The ‘Collectivité de Saint Martin’, is an overseas collectivity of France and has an area of about 53 km², inhabited by more than 32,000 inhabitants. The capital of the Dutch part is Philipsburg while Marigot is the French capital. The island is very hilly and is dominated by several 'Hills' or 'Monts' such as the Mt. France, Mt. Boeuf, Mt. Caretta, Sentry Hill and above all the highest hill, the Pic Paradis (424 m). Ridges of the hills run into the sea and with a certain regularity around the coastline which is interrupted by numerous bays and white beaches, where hundreds of hotels and resorts shoot up like mushrooms.
