Diversity of Norwegian Sea Slugs (Nudibranchia): New Species to Norwegian Coastal Waters and New Data on Distribution of Rare Species
Fauna norvegica 2013 Vol. 32: 45-52. ISSN: 1502-4873 Diversity of Norwegian sea slugs (Nudibranchia): new species to Norwegian coastal waters and new data on distribution of rare species Jussi Evertsen1 and Torkild Bakken1 Evertsen J, Bakken T. 2013. Diversity of Norwegian sea slugs (Nudibranchia): new species to Norwegian coastal waters and new data on distribution of rare species. Fauna norvegica 32: 45-52. A total of 5 nudibranch species are reported from the Norwegian coast for the first time (Doridoxa ingolfiana, Goniodoris castanea, Onchidoris sparsa, Eubranchus rupium and Proctonotus mucro- niferus). In addition 10 species that can be considered rare in Norwegian waters are presented with new information (Lophodoris danielsseni, Onchidoris depressa, Palio nothus, Tritonia griegi, Tritonia lineata, Hero formosa, Janolus cristatus, Cumanotus beaumonti, Berghia norvegica and Calma glau- coides), in some cases with considerable changes to their distribution. These new results present an update to our previous extensive investigation of the nudibranch fauna of the Norwegian coast from 2005, which now totals 87 species. An increase in several new species to the Norwegian fauna and new records of rare species, some with considerable updates, in relatively few years results mainly from sampling effort and contributions by specialists on samples from poorly sampled areas. doi: 10.5324/fn.v31i0.1576.

April 15, 2015 Three New Species of Aglajid Cephalaspidean Mollusks from the Tropical Indo-Pacific of the Verde Island Passage Terrence Gosliner Department of Invertebrate Zoology, California Academy of Sciences, 55 Music Concourse Drive, San Francisco, CA 94118, U.S.A. E-mail: [email protected] Three new species of aglajid opisthobranchs are described from the Verde Island Passage of the Philippines. Philinopsis buntot sp. nov. is found from two localities in Batangas, Luzon. It is immediately recognizable and distinct from all other aglajids by its medial projection that extends from the posterior end of the posterior shield. Its penis has a lobate prostate and a bilobed penial papilla with a basal collar. The collar and the lobes of the papilla bear small spines around their margins. Philinopsis aliciae sp. nov., known only a single specimen from the Philippines, is similar to P. buntot, but lacks the distinctive tail or any posterior medial appendage. It has a simple penis, which lacks any trace of penial spines. Chelidonura alexisi sp. nov. is characterized by its black body, often with minute opaque white spots. It has a sim- ple penis with two cuticularized conical papillae, one situated near the middle and the other near the apex. This species is known from four specimens and a photo of a fifth specimen, also observed in the Philippines, on the southern side of the Verde Island Passage. -
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. -

All India Coordinated Project on Taxonomy – Mollusca , Gujarat State 1. Introduction Gujarat has a long coastline of about 1650 km, which is mainly due to the presence of two gulfs viz. the Gulf of Khambhat (GoKh) and Gulf of Kachchh (GoK). The coastline has diverse habitats such as rocky, sandy, mangroves, coral reefs etc. The southern shore of the GoK in the western India, notified as Marine National Park and Sanctuary (MNP & S), harbours most of these major habitats. The reef areas of the GoK are rich in flora and fauna; Narara, Dwarka, Poshitra, Shivrajpur, Paga, Boria, Chank and Okha are some of these pristine areas of the GoK and its surrounding environs. -

(Mollusca: Euthyneura) Biodiversity in Mauritius Lisa Ah-Shee-Tee1
An assessment of nudibranchs (Mollusca: Euthyneura) biodiversity in Mauritius Lisa Ah-Shee-Tee1 ([email protected] ), Daneshwar Puchooa1 ([email protected] ), Vishwakalyan Bhoyroo1 ([email protected] ), Chandani Appadoo2 ([email protected] ) 1Department of Agricultural & Food Science, Faculty of Agriculture, University of Mauritius, Mauritius 2Department of Biosciences & Ocean Studies, Faculty of Science, University of Mauritius, Mauritius Presenting author is a PhD student: Lisa Ah Shee Tee. Species form the basic unit of biodiversity. They provide economic, pharmacological and public health importance while some can be used as bio-indicators of either environmental quality or climate change. Cataloguing a list of species is also an element of biodiversity. Without prior knowledge of the different species present in the same environment, it is difficult to move towards a sustainable management. Nudibranchs constitute one of the most diverse group of opisthobranchs. They are also known as “butterflies of the sea” as a result of their spectacular coloration. Nudibranchs are recognised to possess important pharmacological potency such as cytotoxicity to a number of tumor cell lines. They can also be used to detect and monitor fine-scale climate change along the coast. They are able to forecast ups and downs in the populations of other species with long pelagic larval periods. Reports of nudibranchs occurrence from Mauritius Island date back from 1832 arising from expedition and systematic records. The most recent review of the biodiversity of opisthobranchs in Mauritius date back to 1991 whereby 23 nudibranchs species belonging to eight families were identified. The present study aims to provide an inventory of nudibranchs species from the lagoon of Mauritius. -

I have indexed them only for information concerning systematics, taxonomy, nomenclature, & description of taxa (as these are my areas of interest, and to have tried to index for areas such as physiology, behavior, ecology, neurophysiology, anatomy, etc. would have made the job too large and I would have given up long ago). This is a working list and as such may contain errors, but it should allow you to quickly find information concerning the description, taxonomy, or systematics of almost any species of nudibranch. The phylogenetic hierarchy used is based on Traite de Zoologie, with a few additions and changes (since this is intended to be an index, and not a definitive classification, I have not attempted to update the hierarchy to reflect recent changes). The full citation for any of the authors and dates listed may be found in the nudibranch bibliography at http://repositories.cdlib.org/ims/Bibliographia_Nudibranchia_second_edition/. Names in square brackets and preceded by an equal sign are synonyms which were listed as such in at least one of the cited papers. If only a generic name is listed in square brackets after a species name, it indicates that the generic allocation of the species has changed, but the specific epithet is the same. -
Diet Preferences of the Aglajidae: a Family of Cephalaspidean Gastropod Predators on Tropical and Temperate Shores

In order to better understand their food habits and trophic interactions, we have studied the diet of all genera through the examination of gut contents. Specimens were dissected for the digestive tract and gut contents were removed and identified by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Our results confirmed that carnivory is the only feeding mode in aglajids and showed a sharp preference for vagile prey (94% of food items). We suggest that the interaction between crawling speed, presence of sen- sorial structures capable of detecting chemical signals from prey, and unique features of the digestive system (e.g. lack of radula, eversion of the buccal bulb, thickening of gizzard walls) led aglajid slugs to occupy a unique trophic niche among cephalaspideans, supporting the hypothesis that dietary specialization played a major role in the adaptive radiation of Cephalaspidea gastropods. -
Spongivory by Nudibranchs on the Coast of Rio De Janeiro State, Southeastern Brazil
©Zoologische Staatssammlung München/Verlag Friedrich Pfeil; download www.pfeil-verlag.de SPIXIANA 38 2 187-195 München, Dezember 2015 ISSN 0341-8391 Spongivory by nudibranchs on the coast of Rio de Janeiro state, southeastern Brazil (Mollusca, Gastropoda) Thalita Belmonte, Juliana Alvim, Vinicius Padula & Guilherme Muricy Belmonte, T., Alvim, J., Padula, V. & Muricy, G. 2015. Spongivory by nudibranchs on the coast of Rio de Janeiro state, southeastern Brazil (Mollusca, Gastropoda). Spixiana 38 (2): 187-195. Nudibranch gastropods are carnivores and most dorid nudibranchs are spongi- vores, preying on a single or a few species of sponges. The feeding biology has important biological, ecological and evolutionary implications, and many charac- teristics of nudibranchs likely arose from co-evolution with diet organisms. Data on spongivory by dorid nudibranchs are available for many species from the Indo- Pacific, eastern Pacific and the Mediterranean Sea, but such information is scarce for the southwestern Atlantic. In this study we provide qualitative data on spongi- vory by dorid nudibranchs along the coast of Rio de Janeiro State, southeastern Brazil, including the identification of the species involved. A total of 94 spongi- vory events were observed between 12 nudibranch and 13 sponge species, greatly expanding our knowledge of predator-prey interactions. Among the sponges preyed upon, one species belongs to the class Homoscleromorpha (Plakina sp.) and 12 species to the class Demospongiae. Our observations show that spongivorous nudibranchs have a more diverse diet than previously thought. Additional observa- tions on a higher number of species from different biogeographic regions are needed for a better understanding of the feeding preferences of the diverse and ecologically important spongivorous dorid nudibranchs.
