  • Spawning Frequency, Larval Development and Growth of Muricid Gastropod Chicoreus Ramosus (Linnaeus, 1758) in the Laboratory at Hurghada, Northern Red Sea, Egypt
    Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research (2013) 39, 125–131 National Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research http://ees.elsevier.com/ejar www.sciencedirect.com FULL LENGTH ARTICLE Spawning frequency, larval development and growth of Muricid gastropod Chicoreus ramosus (Linnaeus, 1758) in the Laboratory at Hurghada, Northern Red Sea, Egypt Mostafa A.M. Mahmoud *, Tarek A.A. Mohammed, Mohamed H. Yassien National Institute of Oceanography and Fisheries, Invertebrates Aquaculture Lab., Egypt Available online 30 July 2013 KEYWORDS Abstract The spawning frequencies; egg capsules clusters, fecundity, growth and development of Chicoreus ramosus; larval stages of Chicoreus ramosus were studied in the laboratory. It lays clusters of egg capsules Spawning; (405 egg capsules) on four frequency times. The capsule length ranged from 19.68 to 20.28 mm. Egg capsule; The number of eggs per capsule varied from 177.8 (±3.58) to 214.3 (±1.61) egg/capsules, where Larval growth; the egg size ranged from 287 · 280.5 to 355.5 · 322 lm. The estimated fecundity of C. ramosus Red Sea was relatively high and reached about 78,748 eggs per animal throughout the spawning times. After 70 days of hatching from the egg capsules the produced larvae reached about 10.71 mm (±2.16) in length and 5.39 mm (±0.578) in width. The average daily growth rate in length was 0.103 and 0.046 mm/day in width. During the first 2 days, the growth rate was about 0.106 mm/day inside the egg capsules (they feed and nurse on the capsule fluid and on the other small eggs), then it increased to 0.137 mm/day by the 70 days of emerging from the egg capsule because they feed on other juveniles and small gastropods which were placed in the tanks.

Av. Benavides 5400, Surco. P.O. Box 18-131. Lima, Perú. Abstract: Peru is an ecologically diverse country, with 84 life zones in the Holdridge system and 18 ecological regions (including two marine). 1910 molluscan species have been recorded. The highest number corresponds to the sea: 570 gastropods, 370 bivalves, 36 cephalopods, 34 polyplacoforans, 3 monoplacophorans, 3 scaphopods and 2 aplacophorans (total 1018 species). The most diverse families are Veneridae (57spp.), Muricidae (47spp.), Collumbellidae (40 spp.) and Tellinidae (37 spp.). Biogeographically, 56 % of marine species are Panamic, 11 % Peruvian and the rest occurs in both provinces; 73 marine species are endemic to Peru. Land molluscs include 763 species, 2.54 % of the global estimate and 38 % of the South American esti- mate. The most biodiverse families are Bulimulidae with 424 spp., Clausiliidae with 75 spp. and Systrophiidae with 55 spp. In contrast, only 129 freshwater species have been reported, 35 endemics (mainly hydrobiids with 14 spp. The paper includes an overview of biogeography, ecology, use, history of research efforts and conser- vation; as well as indication of areas and species that are in greater need of study.

  • Moluscos Bivalvos Y Gastrópodos Asociados a Los Manglares Del Pacífico Centroamericano
    Moluscos bivalvos y gastrópodos asociados a los manglares del Pacífico Centroamericano Jorge Arturo Jiménez§ Universidad Nacional, Costa Rica Los moluscos representan una alta diversidad en ambientes de manglar. La información relacionada con este grupo ha sido incorporada en una publicación adicional (Cruz y Jiménez, 1994). La distribución de las especies de moluscos dentro del manglar, muestra patrones espaciales claramente diferenciables que permiten dividir los manglares en tres zonas típicas: a) La zona estuarina Está compuesta por los canales mareales, por los playones que quedan al descubierto en las mareas bajas y por la laguna estuarina adyacente. En esta zona, los organismos viven inmersos en el agua constantemente y se exponen al aire por cortos períodos de tiempo. Las almejas Chione subrugosa y Protothaca asperrima se encuentran en los playones mareales de la zona estuarina. Gastrópodos carnívoros, tales como Melongena patula y Natica cheminitzii se constituyen en los moluscos predadores más importantes en estos playones. Por otra parte, la definición que describe al molusco como una especie típica de ambientes de manglar, se complica especialmente al analizar los elementos que se encuentran en la zona estuarina. Debido a sus características ecológicas, esta zona presenta una variedad de ambientes y, consecuentemente, gran cantidad de especies que también se encuentran en áreas alejadas del manglar 1 tales como bivalvos y gastrópodos, los cuales habitan bajo el lodo, las barras arenosas y las zonas rocosas de las desembocaduras de los estuarios o de las deltas que poseen manglares asociados. b) La zona externa del bosque Está influenciada por inundaciones mareales diarias. El componente arbóreo dominante se conforma de especies de los géneros Rhizophora y Reluciera.

  • 1 Northwest Florida Species List
    NORTHWEST FLORIDA SPECIES LIST This list, which contains shells found in the onshore and offshore waters of the Florida Panhandle, was prepared by the members of the Gulf Coast Shell Club. The list is arranged alphabetically by family. The numbers to the left of the shell name refer to the corresponding species as found in American Seashells, Second Edition by Dr R. Tucker Abbott. An asterisk indicates that a name change to the family, species, genus, (or all) has occurred since publication. Shells annotated with a superscript 1 indicate form names that may or may not be valid but are useful for identification. Shells annotated with a superscript 2 are shells from the 1994 Keeler and Robertson survey of the Apalachicola Marine Estuary and immediate offshore areas and represent species not currently held by GCSC members but that are deemed native to our area. Common name for the shell and its normal adult size range columns are included. There are 635 shells (including forms) on this list as of the latest update in March, 2013. Our thanks go to Dr. Harry Lee of the Jacksonville Shell Club for his assistance in this compilation. A caution: Any list of this type is subject to frequent name changes as the science involved progresses.

  • Check List and Occurrence of Marine Gastropoda Along the Palk Bay Region, Southeast Coast of India
    Available online at www.pelagiaresearchlibrary.com Pelagia Research Library Advances in Applied Science Research, 2013, 4(1): 195-199 ISSN: 0976-8610 CODEN (USA): AASRFC Check list and occurrence of marine gastropoda along the palk bay region, southeast coast of India Elaiyaraja C, Rajasekaran R* and Sekar V. Centre of Advanced Study in Marine Biology, Faculty of Marine Sciences, Annamalai University, Parangipettai, Tamil Nadu, India _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The marine biodiversity of the southeast coast of India is rich and much of the world’s wealth of biodiversity is found in highly diverse coastal habitats. A present study was carried out on marine gastropod accessibility among Palk Bay region of Tamilnadu coastline to identify, quantify and assess the shell resources potential for development of a small-scale shell industry. A large collection of marine gastropod was made among the coastal line of Mallipattinam and Kottaipattinam found 61 species (25 families) of marine gastropods over a 12 months period from Aug- 2011 to July- 2012. A totally of 61 species belonging to 55 species of 40 genera were recorded at station 1 and 56 species belonging to 41 genera were identified at station 2. Most of the species were common in both landings centre with slight differences but some species like Turritella duplicate, Strombus canarium, Cyprae onyxadusta, Marginella angustata, and Harpa major were available in station 1 not available in station 2. The present study revealed that the occurrence of marine gastropods species along the Palk Bay region of Tamilnadu coastline. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION Though marine science has established much attention in Tamilnadu coastline in the recent years, marine mollusks studies are still overseen by many researchers.

  • Evolution, Distribution, and Phylogenetic Clumping of a Repeated Gastropod Innovation
    Zoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2017, 180, 732–754. With 5 figures. The varix: evolution, distribution, and phylogenetic clumping of a repeated gastropod innovation NICOLE B. WEBSTER1* and GEERAT J. VERMEIJ2 1Department of Biological Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada T6G 2E9 2Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences, University of California, Davis, CA 95616, USA Received 27 June 2016; revised 4 October 2016; accepted for publication 25 October 2016 A recurrent theme in evolution is the repeated, independent origin of broadly adaptive, architecturally and function- ally similar traits and structures. One such is the varix, a shell-sculpture innovation in gastropods. This periodic shell thickening functions mainly to defend the animal against shell crushing and peeling predators. Varices can be highly elaborate, forming broad wings or spines, and are often aligned in synchronous patterns. Here we define the different types of varices, explore their function and morphological variation, document the recent and fossil distri- bution of varicate taxa, and discuss emergent patterns of evolution. We conservatively found 41 separate origins of varices, which were concentrated in the more derived gastropod clades and generally arose since the mid-Mesozoic. Varices are more prevalent among marine, warm, and shallow waters, where predation is intense, on high-spired shells and in clades with collabral ribs. Diversification rates were correlated in a few cases with the presence of varices, especially in the Muricidae and Tonnoidea, but more than half of the origins are represented by three or fewer genera. Varices arose many times in many forms, but generally in a phylogenetically clumped manner (more frequently in particular higher taxa), a pattern common to many adaptations.
