However the embryonic development of several of these families remains undescribed. Here I describe the development of Cerithiopsis gemmulosum from Bocas del Toro Province, Panama. This species lives on and lays its thin-walled egg capsules in Halichondria melanadocia sponges. The 79 µm eggs have equal cleavage with a polar lobe. The ciliated “trochophore” stage is followed by an encapsulated veliger which has distinct embryonic kidneys and large granular cells that cover the head vesicle. The black eyes are large and develop early, but there is no pigmented mantle organ. At hatching the brown larval shell is a single whorl and 127 µm long, and each semicircular velar lobe is unpigmented. The velar lobes are equal in size at hatching, but as the shell grows and becomes high-spired the right lobe grows to twice the size of the left lobe. The late larval shell is smooth but has a prominent beak flanked by two distinct notches that fit the velar lobes. After 3 weeks in culture the velum begins to shrink, and larvae with 500 µm shell length metamorphose when exposed to host sponge.

  • The “Tsunami Break:” Impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake and the Accompanying Tsunamis on the Shell Growth of the Invasive Clam‑Eating Snail Laguncula Pulchella
    Fisheries Science (2018) 84:485–494 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12562-018-1197-2 ORIGINAL ARTICLE Biology The “tsunami break:” impact of the Great East Japan Earthquake and the accompanying tsunamis on the shell growth of the invasive clam‑eating snail Laguncula pulchella Masahiro Suzuki1 · Kenji Okoshi1 Received: 26 October 2017 / Accepted: 6 March 2018 / Published online: 21 March 2018 © The Author(s) 2018 Abstract The Great East Japan Earthquake and accompanying tsunamis occurred on 11 March 2011, causing huge damage to marine organisms. The invasive naticid gastropod Laguncula pulchella (Euspira fortunei), which was introduced with the imported clam Ruditapes philippinarum from China and Korea, survived the earthquake. The “growth break line” observed on the shell surface in over 90% of the individuals collected in Matsushima Bay and Matsukawa-ura Lagoon after the tsunamis was exam- ined by scanning electron microscopy. Each shell presented three layers before and three after the growth break. However, the fracture surface consisted of fve layers—two prismatic and three crossed lamellar—around the growth break line. This suggests that shell formation temporarily ceased following the tsunamis and that the fve-layered shell may have developed in response to the stress caused by the tsunamis. The newly formed middle layer became thinner after the “tsunami break,” which may be the result of a rapid change in the mineralization process, including rapid shell growth and/or repair. These results suggest that the damage to and forcible removal of habitats by the tsunamis was stressful for L. pulchella. A decrease in or the cessation of shell formation after a tsunami may be a common phenomenon in mollusks that inhabit tidal fats.

  • THE LISTING of PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS Guido T
    August 2017 Guido T. Poppe A LISTING OF PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS - V1.00 THE LISTING OF PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS Guido T. Poppe INTRODUCTION The publication of Philippine Marine Mollusks, Volumes 1 to 4 has been a revelation to the conchological community. Apart from being the delight of collectors, the PMM started a new way of layout and publishing - followed today by many authors. Internet technology has allowed more than 50 experts worldwide to work on the collection that forms the base of the 4 PMM books. This expertise, together with modern means of identification has allowed a quality in determinations which is unique in books covering a geographical area. Our Volume 1 was published only 9 years ago: in 2008. Since that time “a lot” has changed. Finally, after almost two decades, the digital world has been embraced by the scientific community, and a new generation of young scientists appeared, well acquainted with text processors, internet communication and digital photographic skills. Museums all over the planet start putting the holotypes online – a still ongoing process – which saves taxonomists from huge confusion and “guessing” about how animals look like. Initiatives as Biodiversity Heritage Library made accessible huge libraries to many thousands of biologists who, without that, were not able to publish properly. The process of all these technological revolutions is ongoing and improves taxonomy and nomenclature in a way which is unprecedented. All this caused an acceleration in the nomenclatural field: both in quantity and in quality of expertise and fieldwork. The above changes are not without huge problematics. Many studies are carried out on the wide diversity of these problems and even books are written on the subject.

  • Faunal Change and Bathymetric Diversity Gradient in Deep-Sea Prosobranchs from Northeastern Atlantic
    Biodiversity and Conservation (2006) Ó Springer 2006 DOI 10.1007/s10531-005-1344-9 -1 Faunal change and bathymetric diversity gradient in deep-sea prosobranchs from Northeastern Atlantic CELIA OLABARRIA1,2 1Southampton Oceanography Centre, DEEPSEAS Benthic Biology Group, Empress Dock, South- ampton SO14 3ZH, United Kingdom; 2Present address: Departamento de Ecoloxı´a e Bioloxı´a Animal, Area Ecoloxı´a, Universidad de Vigo, Campus Lagoas-Marcosende, 36310 Vigo (Pontevedra), Spain (e-mail: [email protected]; phone: +34-986-812587; fax: +34-986-812556) Received 6 January 2005; accepted in revised form 11 July 2005 Key words: Deep sea, Diversity, Faunal turnover, Northeastern Atlantic, Porcupine Abyssal Plain, Porcupine Seabight, Prosobranchs Abstract. Despite the plethora of studies, geographic patterns of diversity in deep sea remain subject of speculation. This study considers a large dataset to examine the faunal change and depth-diversity gradient of prosobranch molluscs in the Porcupine Seabight and adjacent Abyssal Plain (NE Atlantic). Rates of species succession (addition and loss) increased rapidly with increasing depth and indicated four possible areas of faunal turnover at about 700, 1600, 2800 and 4100 m. Depth was a significant predictor of diversity, explaining nearly a quarter the variance. There was a pattern of decreasing diversity downslope from 250 m to 1500–1600 m, followed by an increase to high values at about 4000 m and then again, a fall to 4915 m. Processes causing diversity patterns of prosobranchs in the Porcupine Seabight and adjacent Abyssal Plain are likely to differ in magnitude or type, from those operating in other Atlantic areas. Introduction An increasing focus for biodiversity research in the deep sea has been to test for the existence of large-scale gradients in the diversity of marine soft- sediment fauna in deep sea (e.g.

  • The Identity of Murex Tubercularis
    Boll. Malacol., 46 : 45-64 (2/2010) The identity of Murex tubercularis Montagu, 1803 and description of one new genus and two new species of the Cerithiopsidae (Gastropoda: Triphoroidea) Alberto Cecalupo & Elio Robba Abstract Murex tubercularis Montagu, 1803, type species of the genus Cerithiopsis Forbes & Hanley, 1851, is reconsidered on the basis of its original material, other relevant specimens in museum collections, and pertinent literature and personal data. Since there is a general agreement on teleoconch characters, this work focuses on the protoconch. The latter is conical, of 4.15-4.75 moderately convex whorls, with subsutural and suprasutural spiral rows of granular microprotuberances. It results that a number of specimens with differently sculptured larval shells, hitherto identified as Cerithiopsis tubercularis , do not belong to it. Major issues of this study are: 1) the type lot of Cerithiopsis tubercularis contains more than one taxon, 2) the identity of the syntype formerly designated lectotype of Cerithiopsis tubercularis is much doubtful, and 3) the existing name-bearing type of Cerithiopsis tubercularis is not in taxonomic accord with the prevailing usage of the name. Accordingly, a possible syntype in Natural History Museum (London) is selected as neotype of Cerithiopsis tubercularis . In this paper, the genus Cerithiopsis is intended rather strictly, to accomodate species with general protoconch characters basically conforming to those of the type species. The new genus Nanopsis , with type species Cerithiopsis nana Jeffreys, 1867, is proposed along with the new species Nanopsis buzzurroi and Nanopsis denticulata . Riassunto Murex tubercularis Montagu, 1803, specie tipo del genere Cerithiopsis Forbes & Hanley, 1851, viene criticamente revisionata sulla base del suo materiale originale, di altri esemplari significativi contenuti in collezioni museali, di informazioni pertinenti fornite dalla letteratura e di dati personali.
