(2015), we cover the Conoidea and the Heterobranchia. Fifty-nine species are recorded, of which 14 are new: Asthenotoma lanceolata nov. sp., Aphanitoma marqueti nov. sp., Clathurella pierreaimei nov. sp., Clavatula helwerdae nov. sp., Haedropleura fratemcontii nov. sp., Bela falbalae nov. sp., Raphitoma georgesi nov. sp., Raphitoma landreauensis nov. sp., Raphitoma palumbina nov. sp., Raphitoma turtaudierei nov. sp., Raphitoma vercingetorixi nov. sp., Raphitoma pseudoconcinna nov. sp., Adelphotectonica bieleri nov. sp., and Ondina asterixi nov. sp. One new name is erected: Genota maximei nov. nom. is proposed for Pleurotoma insignis Millet, non Edwards, 1861. Actaeonidea achatina Sacco, 1896 is considered a junior subjective synonym of Rictaxis tornatus (Millet, 1854).

Eeceiving some years ago a quantity of shells from Port Elizabeth, some of which I could not identify with any that had been described, I. contributed a paper to the ' Journal of Conchology,' January 1886, consisting of a list of those I had identified, and descriptions of those which appeared to be new. This led to the publication of two subsequent papers in the same Journal, through my communications to the Conchological Society in 1889, considerably increasing the list. Since then, various friends in South Africa have discovered many additional species, some of which are well- known inhabitants of other coasts, but not previously recorded as South African. The purpose of the present work is to give in a small compass a list, as complete as possible, of all the known Marine Shells of South Africa, with references to figures in well-known works, descriptions of new species, and figures not only of these, but of some that have been described from time to time by other authors without figures. The total number of species enumerated is 740. Of these, 67 are also found in European seas, 340 are known to inhabit other coasts, and the remaining 323 are, as far as is known, confined to South Africa.

Utility of H3-Genesequences for Phylogenetic Reconstruction – a Case Study of Heterobranch Gastropoda –*

W. Goethe-University, Frankfurt am Main, Germany *Paper presented to the 2nd International Workshop on Opisthobranchia, ZFMK, Bonn, Germany, September 20th to 22nd, 2006 Abstract. In the present study we assessed the utility of H3-Genesequences for phylogenetic reconstruction of the He- terobranchia (Mollusca, Gastropoda). Therefore histone H3 data were collected for 49 species including most of the ma- jor groups. The sequence alignment provided a total of 246 sites of which 105 were variable and 96 parsimony informa- tive. Twenty-four (of 82) first base positions were variable as were 78 of the third base positions but only 3 of the se- cond base positions. H3 analyses showed a high codon usage bias. The consistency index was low (0,210) and a substitution saturation was observed in the 3r d codon position. The alignment with the translation of the H3 DNA sequences to amino-acid sequences had no sites that were parsimony-informative within the Heterobranchia. Phylogenetic trees were reconstructed using maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood and Bayesian methodologies. Nodilittorina unifasciata was used as outgroup. The resolution of the deeper nodes was limited in this molecular study. The data themselves were not sufficient to clar- ify phylogenetic relationships within Heterobranchia. Neither the monophyly of the Euthyneura nor a step-by-step evo- lution by the “basal” groups was supported.

Environmental Heterogeneity and Benthic Macroinvertebrate Guilds in Italian Lagoons Alberto Basset, Nicola Galuppo & Letizia Sabetta

Lecce-Monteroni 73100 Lecce RESEARCH ARTICLE ITALY Abstract 1 - Lagoons are ecotones between freshwater, marine and terrestrial biotopes, characterized by internal ecosystem heterogeneity, due to patchy spatial and temporal distribution of biotic and abiotic components, and inter-ecosystem heterogeneity, due to the various terrestrial-freshwater and freshwater-marine interfaces. 2 - Here, we carried out an analysis of environmental heterogeneity and benthic macro-invertebrate guilds in a sample of 26 Italian lagoons based on literature produced over a 25 year period.. 3 - In all, 944 taxonomic units, belonging to 13 phyla, 106 orders and 343 families, were recorded. Most species had a very restricted geographic distribution range. 75% of the macroinvertebrate taxa were observed in less than three of the twenty-six lagoons considered. 4 - Similarity among macroinvertebrate guilds in lagoon ecosystems was remarkably low, ranging from 10.5%±7.5% to 34.2%±14.4% depending on the level of taxonomic resolution. 5 - Taxonomic heterogeneity was due to both differences in species richness and to differences in species composition: width of seaward outlet, lagoon surface area and water salinity were the most important factors affecting species richness, together accounting for up to 75% of observed inter-lagoon heterogeneity, while distance between lagoons was the most significant factor affecting similarity of species composition.

Paolo Giulio Albano Coordinatore Dottorato Relatore Prof.ssa Barbara Mantovani Prof. Francesco Zaccanti Co-relatore Prof. Bruno Sabelli Esame finale anno 2011 to Ilaria and Chiara, my daughters This PhD thesis is the completion of a long path from childhood amateur conchology to scientific research. Many people were involved in this journey, but key characters are three. Luca Marini, director of “Secche di Tor Paterno” Marine Protected Area, shared the project idea of field research on molluscs and trusted me in accomplishing the task. Without his active support in finding funds for the field activities this project would have not started. It is no exaggeration saying I would not have even thought of entering the PhD without him. Bruno Sabelli, my PhD advisor, is another person who trusted me above reasonable expectations. Witness of my childhood love for shells, he has become witness of my metamorphosis to a researcher. Last, but not least, Manuela, my wife, shared my objectives and supported me every single day despite the family challenges we had to face. Many more people helped profusely. I sincerely hope not to forget anyone. Marco Oliverio, Sabrina Macchioni, Letizia Argenti and Roberto Maltini were great SCUBA diving buddies during field activities. Betulla Morello, former researcher at ISMAR-CNR in Ancona, was my guide through the previously unexplored land of non-parametric multivariate statistics.

As a baseline for future studies that will enhance the knowledge of this fauna, we have compiled a checklist combining the existing published data with original data from a recent research. Examination of sampled material and a review of the relevant literature revealed the presence of 354 mollusc species. Twelve species have been recorded for the first time in Montenegrin waters, 7 species are of non-native origin while 14 taxa are recognized as endangered and threatened, according to the IUCN Red List and the Barcelona/Berne Conventions. A comparison of our results with those of the neighbouring seas indicates that mollusc fauna is insufficiently studied, but we should bear in mind that the number of recorded species in relation to the size of the researched area points to a rich malacofauna zone. Keywords: Marine molluscs, checklist, alien species, Montenegro, Adriatic Sea. Introduction From a geomorphologic viewpoint, the Montenegrin coast can be divided into two main Molluscs are important components of marine parts: the Bay of Boka Kotorska and the open sea.

Biodiversity Data Journal 4: e9541. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.4.e9541 Abstract Background This paper describes an occurence dataset, also including numerical abundance and biomass data, pertaining to the macrobenthic molluscan assemblages from a marine - lagoonal environmental transition. The study system was the soft-substrate benthoscape of the area of the Kalloni solar saltworks (Lesvos Island, Greece). Specifically, the study area extended from the infralittoral zone of the inner Kalloni Gulf (marine habitat) to the bottoms of the first two evaporation ponds of the Kalloni solar saltworks (lagoonal habitat). Bottom sediment samples (3 replicates) were collected with a Van Veen grab sampler (0.1 m2 ) at four sampling sites, along a 1.5 km long line transect that spanned the marine - lagoonal environmental transition. A total of four surveys were carried out seasonally in 2004. A total of 39,345 molluscan individuals were sorted out of the sediment samples and were identified to 71 species, belonging to the Gastropoda (36), Bivalvia (34) and Scaphopoda (1) classes.
