Peloritana (Cantraine, 1835) from the Mediterranean Sea
BASTERIA, 56: S3-90, 1992 On Cantrainea peloritana (Cantraine, 1835) from the Mediterranean Sea (Gastropoda, Prosobranchia: Colloniidae) Carlo Smriglio Via di Valle Aurelia 134, 1-00167 Rome, Italy Paolo Mariottini Dipartimento di Biologia, II Universita di Roma, 1-00173 Rome, Italy & Flavia Gravina Dipartimento di Biologia Animale e dell'Uomo, I Universita di Roma, 1-00185 Rome, Italy from the Mediterranean Sea is here the Cantrainea peloritana (Cantraine, 1835) reported upon; authors give additional data about its morphology, distribution and ecology. Key words: Gastropoda, Prosobranchia, Colloniidae, Cantrainea, morphology, distribution, Mediterranean Sea, Italy. INTRODUCTION In the Mediterranean Sea the genus Cantrainea Jeffreys, 1883, is represented only by Cantraineapeloritana (Cantraine, 1835), which was definitely confirmed to be a living species about a decade ago by Babbi (1982). The author in his interesting report com- ments on the taxonomic position of C. peloritana, giving data on some of its synonyms and reasonably guessing that this species could belong to the deep-sea coral bio- coenosis (Peres & Picard, 1964) present in the MediterraneanSea. According to Babbi (1982), C. peloritana, based on conchological characters only, shows two distinct morphs which in turn represent the two nominal species Turbo peloritanus (typical form) and Turbo carinatus (carinate form) originally created by Cantraine (1835) for fossil specimens. These two shell forms are both present in the Atlantic Ocean; on the con- trary, only the carinate form occurs in the Mediterranean Sea. Living specimens of C. peloritana from the Mediterranean Sea have been reported rarely, the first time by Jeffreys (1882), who published a small note about some molluscs dredged between Sar- dinia and Naples at a depth of 307 m, during the scientific expedition carried out by the V. -

Two new gastropods of the turbinid subfamily Liotiinae are described: Bathyliontia glassi and Pseudoliotina springsteeni. Both species have been collected recently in tangle nets off the Philippine Islands.

Middle Triassic Gastropods from the Besano Formation of Monte San Giorgio, Switzerland Vittorio Pieroni1 and Heinz Furrer2*
Pieroni and Furrer Swiss J Palaeontol (2020) 139:2 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13358-019-00201-8 Swiss Journal of Palaeontology RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Middle Triassic gastropods from the Besano Formation of Monte San Giorgio, Switzerland Vittorio Pieroni1 and Heinz Furrer2* Abstract For the frst time gastropods from the Besano Formation (Anisian/Ladinian boundary) are documented. The material was collected from three diferent outcrops at Monte San Giorgio (Southern Alps, Ticino, Switzerland). The taxa here described are Worthenia (Humiliworthenia)? af. microstriata, Frederikella cf. cancellata, ?Trachynerita sp., ?Omphalopty- cha sp. 1 and ?Omphaloptycha sp. 2. They represent the best preserved specimens of a larger collection and docu- ment the presence in this formation of the clades Vetigastropoda, Neritimorpha and Caenogastropoda that were widespread on the Alpine Triassic carbonate platforms. True benthic molluscs are very rarely documented in the Besano Formation, which is interpreted as intra-platform basin sediments deposited in usually anoxic condition. Small and juvenile gastropods could have been lived as pseudoplankton attached to foating algae or as free-swimming veliger planktotrophic larval stages. Accumulations of larval specimens suggest unfavorable living conditions with prevailing disturbance in the planktic realm or mass mortality events. However, larger gastropods more probably were washed in with sediments disturbed by slumping and turbidite currents along the basin edge or storm activity across the platform of the time equivalent Middle San Salvatore Dolomite.

Adams, 1854 (Gastropoda: Colloniidae) James H. MCLEAN* and Serge GOFAS** Recibido el 15-I-2008. Aceptado el 23-IV-2008 ABSTRACT Shell morphology and characters of the living animal of the poorly known, Atlantic Moroc- can species Anadema macandrewii (Mörch, 1864) are described and illustrated, based on beach collected specimens and a single live-collected specimen. The genus is mono- typic and is assigned to the Colloniidae rather than Turbinidae because of the dome- shaped profile of the shell, open umbilicus, symmetrical tooth rows of the radula, lack of cephalic lappets, and the non-bicarinate juvenile shell. Within the Colloniidae, it unusual for its relatively large mature shell, juvenile shell with a keeled profile, and the lack of the secondary flap above the rachidian tooth. The species is regarded as sexually dimorphic, with the female shell having a raised periumbilical rim comparable to that of other tro- choideans modified for brooding by means of an enlarged umbilical cavity. RESUMEN Se describe e ilustra la morfología de la concha y del animal vivo de Anadema macan- drewii (Mörch, 1864), una especie poco conocida de la costa atlántica de Marruecos. El género es monotípico y se asigna a la familia Colloniidae, en lugar de a los Turbinidae por la forma abombada de la concha, el ombligo abierto, las filas de dientes radulares simétricas, la ausencia de lóbulos cefálicos y por su concha juvenil no bicarenada. -

McLEAN Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, Los Angeles, California 90007 Abstract. Two genera of minute turbinid gastropods in the subfamily Homalopomatinae, Moelleria Jeffreys, 1865, and Spiromoelleria gen. nov., are here called the Moelleria group. These genera differ from other homalopomatine genera in having a calcareous operculum with a multispiral pattern on its exterior surface, having the operculum unable to retract deeper than flush with the apertural margin, and lacking the apertural denticle of Homalopoma and related genera. Moelleria is monotypic for M. costulata (Moller, 1842), which has a circumboreal, offshore distribution. It has coalescing axial sculp ture of a kind unknown in other living trochacean genera. Spiral sculpture is characteristic of only two shallow-water North Pacific species in the new genus Spiromoelleria: S. quadrae (Dall, 1897), the type species, and S. kachemakensis spec. nov. Moelleria drusiana Dall, 1919, is synonymized with S. quadrae. The three species are sympatric in the Gulf of Alaska. and species have already been included in a checklist of INTRODUCTION the mollusks of Alaska (BAXTER, 1983); they are first Two SPECIES until now assigned to Moelleria Jeffreys, validated here. 1865, have major differences in sculpture, although these Collections examined include those of Rae Baxter (RB), differences have not previously been thought to merit ge the University of Alaska, Fairbanks (UAF), the Califor neric distinction. -
Vertical Distribution and Feeding Ecology of the Black Scraper, Thamnaconus Modestus, in the Southern Sea of Korea

Fish abundance was significantly related to the basis of depth and temperature. Thamnaconus modestus occurred at depths ranging from 80 to 120 meter waters having temperature higher than 12°C. We found that 87% of the total catch were obtained at the depths between 80 and 120 meters (58% and 29% from 80–100 and 100–120 meters respectively). The total length of captured individuals ranged from 10.6 to 38.7 cm. Individuals captured at deeper were significantly larger than those from shallower sites. Diverse prey organisms, including algae, amphipods, gastropods, ophiuroids, and cephalopods, were found in T. modestus stomach. The main prey items in IRI value belonged to four groups: hyperiid amphipods, gastropods, ophiuroids, and algae. The fish showed ontogenetic diet shifts. In general, individuals in smaller size (< 20 cm) shifted their diets from vegetative food sources to animal ones when they reach the size bigger than 20 cm. -

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. -
