  • The Histopathology of Antique Ark's Mantle (Anadara Antiquata) Post
    The histopathology of antique ark’s mantle (Anadara antiquata) post-depuration with the shells’ filtration Nabila A. Putri, Laksmi Sulmartiwi, Kustiawan T. Pursetyo Faculty of Fisheries and Marine, Universitas Airlangga, 60115, Surabaya, Indonesia. Corresponding author: L. Sulmartiwi, [email protected] Abstract. Cockles are marine organisms which have the character of filter feeders so that heavy metals can be neutralized naturally through their shells. However, not all heavy metals can be neutralized, so depuration needs to be done. After depuration, histopathological analysis is needed to determine the condition of the soft tissue of the shells so that the disease can be diagnosed through structural changes that occur in the organs that are the main target of pollutants. This study aims to determine the histopathology of antique ark’s mantle (Anadara antiquata) after post-depuration with the filtration of the cockles’ shells. This research method applies an experimental method with scoring histological damage to antique ark’s mantle that ranges from 0 to 3, depending on the level and extent of the changes that occur. After that, the distribution of normal and non-homogeneous data was obtained, and then the Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric test was conducted. The main parameter is the histopathology of the antique ark’s mantle. Supporting parameters include water quality, namely temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), nitrate, nitrite, ammonia, salinity, levels of heavy metals Pb and Cd, total suspended solid (TSS) and total dissolved solid (TDS). The results of the Kruskal-Wallis statistical analysis shows no significant difference between treatments P0 (Control), P1 (Filter 25%), P2 (Filter 50%), P3 (Filter 75%), and P4 (Filter 100%).

  • Taxonomy of Tropical West African Bivalves V. Noetiidae
    Bull. Mus. nati. Hist, nat., Paris, 4' sér., 14, 1992, section A, nos 3-4 : 655-691. Taxonomy of Tropical West African Bivalves V. Noetiidae by P. Graham OLIVER and Rudo VON COSEL Abstract. — Five species of Noetiidae are described from tropical West Africa, defined here as between 23° N and 17°S. The Noetiidae are represented by five genera, and four new taxa are introduced : Stenocista n. gen., erected for Area gambiensis Reeve; Sheldonella minutalis n. sp., Striarca lactea scoliosa n. subsp. and Striarca lactea epetrima n. subsp. Striarca lactea shows considerable variation within species. Ecological factors and geographical clines are invoked to explain some of this variation but local genetic isolation could not be excluded. The relationships of the shallow water West African noetiid species are analysed and compared to the faunas of the Mediterranean, Caribbean, Panamic and Indo- Pacific regions. Stenocista is the only genus endemic to West Africa. A general discussion on the relationships of all the shallow water West African Arcoidea is presented. The level of generic endemism is low and there is clear evidence of circumtropical patterns of similarity between species. The greatest affinity is with the Indo-Pacific but this pattern is not consistent between subfamilies. Notably the Anadarinae have greatest similarity to the Panamic faunal province.

La ricerca e la raccolta del materiale è stata ef- fettuata sulla riva destra dell'Arda nei pressi di Lugagnano, e Piir propriamente nei vasti ammassi di argille azzure che si stendono dall'Arda verso il paese di Vernasca (Foglio I.G.M. n. 72 II N.E.). In particolare le due zone di raccolta, oggetto di questo studio, sono topograficamente racchiuse tm quota 208 (Case Micelli presso la riva destra dell'Arda) e quota 300 circa. Si tratta di un grande ammasso di argille azzurre, situato ad Est ed a Sud-Est della fornace per late- rizi di Lugagnano. Topograficamente sovrapposte a queste argille si trovano sabbie basali del Pliocene inferiore variate con intercalazioni marmose, sab- bie medie e grossolane, marne grigio chiare, sabbie argillo§e, argille marmoso-sabbiose.

El intermareal rocoso de Veracruz, México, es un ecosistema que resguarda una gran biodiversidad. Sin embargo, no se ha reconocido su relevancia como con otros ecosistemas marinos. El objetivo de este estudio fue elaborar las primeras listas florística y faunística del intermareal rocoso de El Pulpo, localizada en el municipio de Cazones, Veracruz. Para ello, desde el 2013 a 2016 se efectuaron muestreos en la franja intermareal rocosa en periodos de marea baja para el registro de la biota marina y la recolecta de material biológico para su identificación taxonómica. Además, se realizó una revisión bibliográfica para complementar las listas de especies. Se registraron 51 especies de macroalgas bentónicas, una especie de fanerógama, 186 especies de invertebrados, y cinco especies de vertebrados para un total de 243 especies marinas. Las Rhodophyta son la ficoflora más representada con 29 es- pecies, mientras que el Phylum Mollusca lo es para la fauna con 139 especies. La mayoría de las especies marinas se registraron en el intermareal medio e inferior; por consiguiente la menor riqueza se registró en el intermareal superior y la constituyen algas filamentosas y foliosas, así como moluscos y crustáceos con hábitos ramoneadores y filtradores.

Morphological and molecular analysis allowed clarifying the confused taxonomy of the largest alien ark clam species invading Italian waters and the Mediterranean Sea. Analysis of the distribution and density data demonstrated that, along the Italian coast, A. kagoshimensis is mostly found at depths of 8 to 50 m, with a catch frequency of more than 98% in the hauls involving silty-clay sediment at a depth of 8-30 m. The hotspot map clearly shows a reduction in the distribution area of the species from 2010 to 2012.

Significant recent progress in long-read sequencing technologies such as PacBio and Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) also brought about a large variety of assemblers. Although these have been extensively tested on model species such as Homo sapiens and Drosophila melanogaster, such benchmarking has not been done in Mollusca which lacks widely adopted model species.
