Stadi di accrescimento dei 20 Quote Sociali 2014 In memoriam Mauro Pizzini (13 luglio 1946 – 4 novembre 2013) Vita sociale Mauro Pizzini ci ha lasciato pochi giorni fa. Martedì 5 novembre è arrivata la notizia che in molti temevamo: un’e-mail di sua figlia Chiara annunciava che Mauro era morto il giorno prima. Sapevo che Mauro era malato da tempo, per cui la noti- zia poteva arrivare da un momento all’altro, ma spesso me ne dimenticavo visto che la sua attività nel campo della malacologia non accennava a diminuire ma se pos- sibile diventava ancor più intensa. Mi risulta difficile scrivere questo necrologio, in questi ultimi due anni ci sentivamo spesso per discutere dei la- vori che stavamo portando avanti. E ora questo silenzio pesa. Il nome di Mauro è indissolubilmente legato alla fami- glia Caecidae, che ha studiato con umiltà ed entusiasmo fino alla fine dei suoi giorni. Infatti se si escludono il re- verendo Carpenter e il marchese de Folin, e più recente- mente Joanne Lightfoot, nessuno si è dedicato in manie- ra così intensa ed esclusiva allo studio di questa fami- glia. Conobbi Mauro nel ’96 al CISMA, e fu in occasione di Mauro Pizzini una sua presentazione dei Caecidae del Mediterraneo, tenuta insieme ad Italo Nofroni, che mi appassionai a di altri due.

  • 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.

SGMA seeks to achieve sustainability, which is defined as the absence of several undesirable results, including “depletions of interconnected surface water that have significant and unreasonable adverse impacts on beneficial users of surface water” (Water Code §10721). The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is a science-based, nonprofit organization with a mission to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends. Like humans, plants and animals often rely on groundwater for survival, which is why TNC helped develop, and is now helping to implement, SGMA. Earlier this year, we launched the Groundwater Resource Hub, which is an online resource intended to help make it easier and cheaper to address environmental requirements under SGMA. As a first step in addressing when depletions might have an adverse impact, The Nature Conservancy recommends identifying the beneficial users of surface water, which include environmental users. This is a critical step, as it is impossible to define “significant and unreasonable adverse impacts” without knowing what is being impacted. To make this easy, we are providing this letter and the accompanying documents as the best available science on the freshwater species within the boundary of your groundwater sustainability agency (GSA).

  • Scientific Studies on Dry Tortugas National Park: an Annotated Bibliography
    ATOLL RESEARCH BULLETIN NO. 449 SCIENTIFIC STUDIES ON DRY TORTUGAS NATIONAL PARK: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY BY T.W. SCHMIDT AND L. PIKULA ISSUED BY NATIONAI, MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION WASHINGTON, D.C., U.S.A. OCTOBER 1997 SCIENTIFIC STUDIES ON DRY TORTUGAS NATIONAL PARK: AN ANNOTATED BIBLIOGRAPHY Thomas W. schmidt1 and Linda pikula2 ABSTRACT Dry Tortugas National Park, located 110 km west of Key West, Florida, is an elliptical, atoll-like, coral reef formation, approximately 27 km long and 12 km wide with shallow water depths ranging from 12-20 m in channels between reefs. In 1935, the area was designated Fort Jefferson National Monument, the World's first underwater National Park unit. Central to the area is Fort Jefferson, America's largest coastal nineteenth century masonty fort. In 1992 it was re-designated Dly Tortugas National Park. Because of the islands' unique location, the first tropical marine biological laboratory in the Western Hemisphere was established on Loggerhead Key by the Carnegie Institution of Washington, Washington, D. C. Following the closure of the Tortugas Laboratory in 1939, aperiodic marine biological assessments have been conducted in response to man- made and natural environmental perturbations. This annotated bibliography is an attempt to provide researchers and resource managers with access to the rapidly accumulating body of information on the park's natural resources. A total of 424 references (published and unpublished) on scientific studies in, (and what later became) Dry Tortugas National Park were annotated and indexed according to major scientific topics. Studies from a wider area were included if they also sampled in Dry Tortugas National Park.

  • The Occurrence of Pseudosimnia Vanhyningi and Spiculata Bijuri in the Northeastern Brazil, with Comments on Their Taxonomy (Caenogastropoda, Ovulidae)
    Strombus(2007) - ISSN 0104-7531 The occurrence of Pseudosimnia vanhyningi and Spiculata bijuri in the northeastern Brazil, with comments on their taxonomy (Caenogastropoda, Ovulidae). Luiz Ricardo L. Simone Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo; Cx. Postal 42494; 04299-970 São Paulo, SP. Brazil; [email protected] Abstract This paper deals with two ovulid species collected at Canopus Bank, off Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil: Pseudosimnia vanhyningi (M. Smith, 1940) and Spiculata bijuri Cate, 1976. The samples consist of empty shells. This is the first time both have been reported on the northeastern Brazilian coast, therefore this is the southernmost record of them. Their taxonomy is revised based on the analysis of some variants of the shell that have been attributed to other species and genera. Aperiovula juanjosensii Perez & Gomez, 1997, and S. advena Cate, 1978, are proposed to be new synonyms of S. bijuri. Key words: Ovulidae, Pseudosimnia vanhyningi, Spiculata bijuri, new occurrence, Ceará, Brazil. Resumo Este artigo reporta duas espécies de ovulídeos coletadas no Banco de Canopus, ao largo de Fortaleza, CE. As amostras são constituídas de conchas vazias. Ambas são reportadas pela primeira vez no litoral nordeste brasileiro, sendo o registro mais sulino destas. As espécies são Pseudosimnia vanhyningi (M. Smith, 1940) e Spiculata bijuri Cate, 1976. A taxonomia destas é revisada baseada em variantes de concha que podem ser atribuídas a outras espécies e gêneros. Aperiovula juanjosensii Perez & Gomez, 1997 e S. advena Cate, 1978, são propostos como novos sinônimos de S. bijuri. Palavras-chave: Ovulidae, Pseudosimnia vanhyningi, Spiculata bijuri, nova ocorrência, Ceará, Brasil.

Pseiido- simnia flava, spec. nov. and Aperiovula juanjosensii Perez & Gomez, 1987 from the bathyal of the central Atlantic (Mollusca: Gastropoda). - Spixiana 26/3: 269-275 A new species of the family Ovulidae Fleming, 1828 is described from the bathyal of the central Atlantic. The new species belongs to the genus Pseudosimnia Schilder, 1925 in the subfamily Ovulinae Fleming, 1828. The Wpe species of the genus is Bulla caniea Poiret, 1789. Pseudosimnia flava spec. nov. is compared vvith the similar looking Pseudosimnia carnea (Poiret, 1789) from the Mediterranean and Eastern Atlantic and with the Caribbean Pseudosimnia vanhyningi (M. Smith, 1940) and Pseudosimnia sphoni Cafe, 1973. Further specimens of the previously rare Aperiovula juanjosensii Perez & Gomez, 1987 were found in association with the new species. Primovula bellocqae Cardin, 1997 from W Morocco is now identified as a junior svnonym of A. juanjosensii.
