Drivers of Cape Verde Archipelagic Endemism in Keyhole Limpets Regina L

Lopes2,3, Suzanne T. Williams4 & Rita Castilho1 Received: 04 August 2016 Oceanic archipelagos are the ideal setting for investigating processes that shape species assemblages. Accepted: 30 December 2016 Focusing on keyhole limpets, genera Fissurella and Diodora from Cape Verde Islands, we used an Published: 02 February 2017 integrative approach combining molecular phylogenetics with ocean transport simulations to infer species distribution patterns and analyse connectivity. Dispersal simulations, using pelagic larval duration and ocean currents as proxies, showed a reduced level of connectivity despite short distances between some of the islands. It is suggested that dispersal and persistence driven by patterns of oceanic circulation favouring self-recruitment played a primary role in explaining contemporary species distributions. Mitochondrial and nuclear data revealed the existence of eight Cape Verde endemic lineages, seven within Fissurella, distributed across the archipelago, and one within Diodora restricted to Boavista. The estimated origins for endemic Fissurella and Diodora were 10.2 and 6.7 MY, respectively. Between 9.5 and 4.5 MY, an intense period of volcanism in Boavista might have affected Diodora, preventing its diversification. Having originated earlier,Fissurella might have had more opportunities to disperse to other islands and speciate before those events. Bayesian analyses showed increased diversification rates inFissurella possibly promoted by low sea levels during Plio-Pleistocene, which further explain differences in species richness between both genera. Remote oceanic archipelagos are the ideal setting for studying patterns and processes underlying speciation.

Historical and Biomechanical Analysis of Integration and Dissociation in Molluscan Feeding, with Special Emphasis on the True Limpets (Patellogastropoda: Gastropoda)
Historical and biomechanical analysis of integration and dissociation in molluscan feeding, with special emphasis on the true limpets (Patellogastropoda: Gastropoda) by Robert Guralnick 1 and Krister Smith2 1 Department of Integrative Biology and Museum of Paleontology, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720-3140 USA email: [email protected] 2 Department of Geology and Geophysics, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720 USA ABSTRACT Modifications of the molluscan feeding apparatus have long been recognized as a crucial feature in molluscan diversification, related to the important process of gathering energy from the envirornment. An ecologically and evolutionarily significant dichotomy in molluscan feeding kinematics is whether radular teeth flex laterally (flexoglossate) or do not (stereoglossate). In this study, we use a combination of phylogenetic inference and biomechanical modeling to understand the transformational and causal basis for flexure or lack thereof. We also determine whether structural subsystems making up the feeding system are structurally, functionally, and evolutionary integrated or dissociated. Regarding evolutionary dissociation, statistical analysis of state changes revealed by the phylogenetic analysis shows that radular and cartilage subsystems evolved independently. Regarding kinematics, the phylogenetic analysis shows that flexure arose at the base of the Mollusca and lack of flexure is a derived condition in one gastropod clade, the Patellogastropoda. Significantly, radular morphology shows no change at the node where kinematics become stereoglossate. However, acquisition of stereoglossy in the Patellogastropoda is correlated with the structural dissociation of the subradular membrane and underlying cartilages. Correlation is not causality, so we present a biomechanical model explaining the structural conditions necessary for the plesiomorphic kinematic state (flexoglossy).

JOHNSON The Publication Committee desires to ex- press to Dr. Myrtle E. Johnson its appreciation of her assignment to the San Diego Society of Natural History her copyright covering the with- in publication. PREFACE An attempt is made in these few pages to give information whicli will enable young students to classify the marine shells. California has a long shore line which offers such diverse types of habitats that the complete list of moUusk species would be a long one. Only a small number from this long list can be included here because of limited space. In selecting species most likely to be found in the north, we have had to include some that are rarely found in the south and others common in the south that are never found in the north. Again, any collector on his first trip to the beach may happen to pick up a species that is found only rarely. This chance for surprises makes collecting interesting but it also makes it quite impossible to list all the shells that will be found even in a small school collection. Although there are sure to be shells in tjie school cabinet that are not included here, the general information will enable the student to assign his shells to their classes and in some cases to genera and species.

They once abounded along the southern California coast, but were over hunted by humans in the 1950’s - 1970’s and decimated by Withering Foot Syndrome in the 1980’s - 1990’s. Long time coastal residents will often have abalone shells around their homes, inside and out, and will tell you of delicious abalone dinners. Visit the following two websites for information about “abs”and the history of California abalone and potential future. FYI, amazingly, a live black “ab” was found on the in-shore rock reef off the Dana Point headlands in December of 2009. http://seafood.ucdavis.edu/pubs/abalone.htm http://www.cadivingnews.com/marinelife/282/Southern-California-Abalone:-Past,- Present-and-Future Barnacles are actually part of the same group of animals, called crustaceans, as crabs, lobster, and shrimp.
