    Lineages, Splits and Divergence Challenge Whether the Terms Anagenesis and Cladogenesis Are Necessary

    Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2015, , – . With 2 figures. Lineages, splits and divergence challenge whether the terms anagenesis and cladogenesis are necessary FELIX VAUX*, STEVEN A. TREWICK and MARY MORGAN-RICHARDS Ecology Group, Institute of Agriculture and Environment, Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand Received 3 June 2015; revised 22 July 2015; accepted for publication 22 July 2015 Using the framework of evolutionary lineages to separate the process of evolution and classification of species, we observe that ‘anagenesis’ and ‘cladogenesis’ are unnecessary terms. The terms have changed significantly in meaning over time, and current usage is inconsistent and vague across many different disciplines. The most popular definition of cladogenesis is the splitting of evolutionary lineages (cessation of gene flow), whereas anagenesis is evolutionary change between splits. Cladogenesis (and lineage-splitting) is also regularly made synonymous with speciation. This definition is misleading as lineage-splitting is prolific during evolution and because palaeontological studies provide no direct estimate of gene flow. The terms also fail to incorporate speciation without being arbitrary or relative, and the focus upon lineage-splitting ignores the importance of divergence, hybridization, extinction and informative value (i.e. what is helpful to describe as a taxon) for species classification. We conclude and demonstrate that evolution and species diversity can be considered with greater clarity using simpler, more transparent terms than anagenesis and cladogenesis. Describing evolution and taxonomic classification can be straightforward, and there is no need to ‘make words mean so many different things’. © 2015 The Linnean Society of London, Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2015, 00, 000–000.

Byssal threads from Mytilus species, which are comprised of modified collagen proteins – have become a veritable archetype for bio-inspired polymers due to their self-healing properties. However, threads from different species are comparatively much less understood. In particular, the byssus of Pinna nobilis comprises thousands of fine fibers utilized by humans for millennia to fashion lightweight golden fabrics known as sea silk. P. nobilis is very different from Mytilus from an ecological, morphological and evolutionary point of view and it stands to reason that the structure– Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. function relationships of its byssus are distinct.

Previous records of the cockle showed its occurrence in Cilincing, northern coast of Jakarta, Semarang coastal waters of Province Central Java, and Sidoarjo coastal waters located in northern part of Province East Java. The identification of the species was performed by morphological characters and is supported by molecular analysis. This finding represents a new distribution record of the species in Indonesia.

  • Early Ontogeny of Jurassic Bakevelliids and Their Bearing on Bivalve Evolution

    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.

    Reconnaître Les Principaux Bivalves Fouisseurs Ou Foreurs Au Moyen De Leurs Siphons

    Reconnaître les principaux bivalves fouisseurs ou foreurs au moyen de leurs siphons. 56 espèces Clé de détermination des 20 taxons les plus gros Yves MÜLLER Yves Müller Mai 2016 Reconnaître les principaux bivalves fouisseurs ou foreurs au moyen de leurs siphons. Dans la quasi-totalité des ouvrages traitant des mollusques lamellibranches (ou mollusques bivalves), ce sont les coquilles qui sont décrites (la conchyologie) avec principalement la description des charnières pour la classification. Pour les parties molles (la malacologie) ce sont les branchies qui sont utilisées. Ce qui n’est pas très accessible au plongeur même photographe ! Selon Martoja (1995) 75 % des espèces de bivalves vivent dans les fonds meubles. Certaines espèces trahissent leur présence par leurs siphons qui affleurent à la surface du sédiment, mais il est difficile, au cours d’une plongée, d’identifier les bivalves enfouis dans le sédiment. D’autres espèces de bivalves vivent dans des substrats durs (bois, roche). Ils forent alors une loge dans ce substrat et en général seuls les siphons sont visibles. Le même problème se pose, à quelle espèce appartiennent les siphons ? Selon Bouchet et al. (1978 :92): « Les siphons constituent un moyen de détermination des bivalves aussi fiable que la coquille et la charnière ». Des auteurs anciens comme Deshayes (1844-1848), Forbes et Hanley (1850-1853), Jeffreys (1863, 1865) et Meyer & Möbius (1872) et quelques autres plus récents comme Owen (1953 ; 1959), Purchon (1955a, b), Holme (1959) et Amouroux (1980) ont décrit les siphons de plusieurs espèces. La plupart des espèces de bivalves mesurent entre un et plusieurs centimètres mais les siphons sont pour la plupart courts ou très fins et rétractiles au moindre danger, donc difficilement observables en plongée.
