REAL2, NÉSTOR F. CIOCCO1,2 and MARÍA E. RÉ1 1 Centro Nacional Patagónico, CONICET, Boulevard Brown s/n, Puerto Madryn (9120), Chubut, Argentina.

SUMMARY: Ensis macha is a razor clam distributed throughout the coasts of southern Argentina and Chile. Even though it represents a valuable fishery resource, the exploitation of its Atlantic populations has begun only in recent years. This study provides the first estimates of growth rate, an interpretation of the reproductive cycle on the coast of the northern Argentine Patagonia and an analysis of the species morphometry. Growth was estimated by direct observation of growth rings on the valves by two observers. The reproductive cycle was interpreted by the analysis of temporal change of oocyte size frequency distributions. Parameter estimations for the von Bertalanffy equations respectively obtained by observers 1 -1 and 2 were 154 and 153.7 mm for L∞, 0.25 and 0.20 yr for k, and -0.08 and -0.72 yr for t0. Two spawning peaks were detect- ed: September-November 1999 and May-June 2000. However, mature females were found all year round. An abrupt change in the relationship between shell length and height was detected at 11.2 mm length. Key words: razor clam, morphometric relationships, growth, reproduction, Ensis macha, allometric growth.

  • Morphological Variations of the Shell of the Bivalve Lucina Pectinata
    I S S N 2 3 47-6 8 9 3 Volume 10 Number2 Journal of Advances in Biology Morphological variations of the shell of the bivalve Lucina pectinata (Gmelin, 1791) Emma MODESTIN PhD of Biogeography, zoology and Ecology University of the French Antilles, UMR AREA DEV ABSTRACT In Martinique, the species Lucina pectinata (Gmelin, 1791) is called "mud clam, white clam or mangrove clam" by bivalve fishermen depending on the harvesting environment. Indeed, the individuals collected have differences as regards the shape and colour of the shell. The hypothesis is that the shape of the shell of L. pectinata (P. pectinatus) shows significant variations from one population to another. This paper intends to verify this hypothesis by means of a simple morphometric study. The comparison of the shape of the shell of individuals from different populations was done based on samples taken at four different sites. The standard measurements (length (L), width or thickness (E - épaisseur) and height (H)) were taken and the morphometric indices (L/H; L/E; E/H) were established. These indices of shape differ significantly among the various populations. This intraspecific polymorphism of the shape of the shell of P. pectinatus could be related to the nature of the sediment (granulometry, density, hardness) and/or the predation. The shells are significantly more elongated in a loose muddy sediment than in a hard muddy sediment or one rich in clay. They are significantly more convex in brackish environments and this is probably due to the presence of more specialised predators or of more muddy sediments. Keywords Lucina pectinata, bivalve, polymorphism of shape of shell, ecology, mangrove swamp, French Antilles.

Abstract: The factors involved in promoting long life are extremely intriguing from a human perspective. In part by confronting our own mortality, we have a desire to understand why some organisms live for centuries and others only a matter of days or weeks. What are the factors involved in promoting long life? Not only are questions of lifespan significant from a human perspective, but they are also important from a paleontological one. Most studies of evolution in the fossil record examine changes in the size and the shape of organisms through time. Size and shape are in part a function of life history parameters like lifespan and growth rate, but so far little work has been done on either in the fossil record. The shells of bivavled mollusks may provide an avenue to do just that. Bivalves, much like trees, record their size at each year of life in their shells. In other words, bivalve shells record not only lifespan, but also growth rate.

  • Diet and Feeding of the Nassariid Buccinanops Cochlidium from Northern Patagonia, Argentina
    Vol. 17: 261–268, 2012 AQUATIC BIOLOGY Published December 13 doi: 10.3354/ab00480 Aquat Biol Diet and feeding of the nassariid Buccinanops cochlidium from northern Patagonia, Argentina Andres Averbuj1,*, Gabriela Palomo2, Martín I. Brogger2, Pablo E. Penchaszadeh2 1LARBIM Centro Nacional Patagónico-CONICET, Puerto Madryn U9120ACD, Chubut, Argentina 2Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales Bernardino Rivadavia-CONICET, C1405DJR, Buenos Aires, Argentina ABSTRACT: The Nassariidae are considered to be carrion feeders. Nevertheless, the feeding habits of this family also include herbivory, detritivory and carnivory. In the present study, we observed the diet and feeding behaviour of Buccinanops cochlidium from northern Patagonic waters. B. cochlidium fed mainly on living bivalves and, as an opportunistic carrion feeder, on diverse dead animals. It was commonly observed to feed in groups. When one individual of B. cochlidium caught a prey, other individuals approached and opportunistically fed on the remains. Juveniles fed exclusively on carrion, including prey recently killed by conspecific adult snails (39.5% of the scavenging events). Carrion represented 57.8% of the B. cochlidium diet on the whole. Predation seemed to be related to the size of B. cochlidium individuals, in particular, the foot, which is used to hold and manipulate the prey. We observed no feeding activity for gravid B. cochlidium females in the field. In summary, our results show that B. cochlidium is a carnivorous species, both as a scavenger and as a predator, that feeds mainly on dead crabs and living bivalves. Adults of B. cochlidium predated actively and fed opportunistically on dead animals of larger sizes, whereas hatchlings and juveniles fed exclusively on carrion, including by-products generated by the predation of larger B.

Abstract Ensis Schumacher, 1817 razor shells occur at both sides of the Atlantic and along the Pacific coasts of tropical west America, Peru, and Chile. Many of them are marketed in various regions. However, the absence of clear autapomorphies in the shell and the sympatric distributions of some species often prevent a correct identification of specimens. As a consequence, populations cannot be properly managed, and edible species are almost always mislabelled along the production chain.

These occurrences are not included in the calculations for B. SUPPLEMENTAL FIGURE 2. Additional simulations of expected death assemblages (exp DA) for the various hypothetical living assemblages (hypoth LA) in Text-figure 1, using an approximately 40-fold variation in lifespan (the set 2, 5, 8, 35, and 75 years), which reflects the minimum, median, and maximum lifespans in the dataset that shows the largest spread in lifespan among the 30 datasets analyzed (San Juan Channel shell gravel; see Supplemental Table 1). Larger values of |LB| are generated than when lifespans vary by 10-fold (Text-Figure 1), but switching in rank abundance between the LA and the expected DA still occurs largely among the most abundant species in the LA and the effects of LB are moderated as the evenness of the LA decreases.
