  • Evolutionary Patterns and Consequences of Developmental Mode in Cenozoic Gastropods from Southeastern Australia
    Evolutionary patterns and consequences of developmental mode in Cenozoic gastropods from southeastern Australia Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Kirstie Rae Thomson September 2013 ABSTRACT Gastropods, like many other marine invertebrates undergo a two-stage life cycle. As the adult body plan results in narrow environmental tolerances and restricted mobility, the optimum opportunity for dispersal occurs during the initial larval phase. Dispersal is considered to be a major influence on the evolutionary trends of different larval strategies. Three larval strategies are recognised in this research: planktotrophy, lecithotrophy and direct development. Planktotrophic larvae are able to feed and swim in the plankton resulting in the greatest dispersal potential. Lecithotrophic larvae have a reduced planktic period and are considered to have more restricted dispersal. The planktic period is absent in direct developing larvae and therefore dispersal potential in these taxa is extremely limited. Each of these larval strategies can be confidently inferred from the shells of fossil gastropods and the evolutionary trends associated with modes of development can be examined using both phylogenetic and non-phylogenetic techniques. This research uses Cenozoic gastropods from southeastern Australia to examine evolutionary trends associated with larval mode. To ensure the species used in analyses are distinct and correctly assigned, a taxonomic review of the six families included in this study was undertaken. The families included in this study were the Volutidae, Nassariidae, Raphitomidae, Borsoniidae, Mangeliidae and Turridae. Phylogenetic analyses were used to examine the relationships between taxa and to determine the order and timing of changes in larval mode throughout the Cenozoic.

Pályázati azonosító: 204113/00520 Az örökös, Bába Károly Tamás eladásra kínálta fel édesapja, dr. Bába Károly puhatestű- gyűjteményét. A gyűjtemény a 2007-es állapot szerint (Dr. Bába Károly ekkor hunyt el) a 3742 fajt tartalmazott 12 350 tételben. Egy leltári tétel természetesen számos példányt foglal magába, így a gyűjtemény darabszáma jóval nagyobb. Főbb csoportok lelőhely szerinti bontásban: szárazföldi világanyag, sósvízi anyag (Atlanti-óceán, Fekete-tenger, Földközi-tenger, Csendes- óceán), illetve magyarországi szárazföldi és vízi puhatestűek. A gyűjtemény az ország egyik legnagyobb magángyűjteménye volt. Tudományos jelentősége mellett eszmei értékét emeli, hogy jelentős része magyar malakológus gyűjtése, illetve, hogy az anyag a világ olyan területeiről származik, ahol az instabil politikai helyzet, a háborús bizonytalanság, a háború, illetve a gyűjtési tilalom következtében jelenleg már nem lehet gyűjteni, amit tetéz, hogy a természetvédelmi előírások következtében számos fajt napjainkban tilos begyűjteni.

One attempt to promote tourism is throcugh the biodiversity of its fauna. This study aims are to summarize the diversity of gastropoda and made a checklist to make it easier studied. Museum collections and twenty-four works of literature were used as the data source. A total of 73 families and 292 species of gastropoda were documented from 29 locations. About 29% of them have their representation in the museum collections. The list dominated by marine (65%), following by terrestrial (15%), mangrove (6%), and freshwater species (5%). Twenty-two species are new records for Lombok Island. The most diverse family, Neritidae, which occupies wider habitat is represented by nine percent. Littoraria scabra is the most widely distributed species which occurs in 12 locations. The five most diverse locations were marine habitats which popular for tourism destinations. This study contributes to the development of marine ecotourism in Lombok. Keywords: diversity, gastropoda, Lombok, marine ecotourism INTISARI Lombok, pulau yang terletak di Kepulauan Sunda Kecil, terkenal sebagai tujuan pariwisata. Salah satu usaha untuk mempromosikan pariwisata ialah melalui keragaman faunanya.

Darragh Natural History Division, Museum of Victoria, 285 Russell Street, Melbourne, Victoria 3000, Australia Abstract Darragh, T.A. 1988. A revision of the Tertiary Volutidae (Mollusca: Gastropoda) of south- eastern Australia. Memoirs of the Museum of Victoria 49: 195-307. The Volutidae of Australia consists of 18 genera or subgenera of which five are known only as fossils and three only in the living fauna. (Twenty other genus group taxa have been syn- onymised.) The fossil genera can be grouped according to their affinity as: Cosmopolitan: Lyria (Late Oligocene-Recent), Athleta (Late Paleocene) and Scaphella (Aurinia) (Late Eocene). Endemic (the dominant element): Livonia (Late Oligocene-Recent), Ericusa (Late Oligo- cene-Recent), Nannamoria (Late Oligocene-Recent) and Amoria (Middle Miocene-Recent). Neozelandic: Alcithoe (Alcithoe) (Late Miocene, Late Pliocene), Alcithoe (Waihaoia) (Late Eocene-Middle Miocene). Indo-Pacific or Tethyan: Cymbiola (Late Oligocene-Recent), Mitreoia (Late Eocene) and Lep- loscapha (Middle Miocene, Recent). The living volutes of the Southern Australian region are almost entirely derived from the Southern Australian Tertiary volute fauna. Twenty-two new species group taxa are proposed: Lyria acuticostulata (E-M Mioc), L. mitraeformis crassicosta (E Pleist.), Mitreoia salapu- tium (L Eoc), Scaphella (Aurinia) johannae (L Eoc), Notovoluta variculifera (L Eoc), N. capitonica (L Eoc), N. verconis medicata (E Pleist.), N. kreuslerae occulta (E Pleist.), N. linigera (E Mioc), N.

INTRODUCTION About two years ago, during one of the many philosophical “attacks” on our minds, as we all have once in a while, I thought there is a huge change going on in shell collecting. And it is evident that the new generation has no solid backbone in col- lecting shells – as did the older generation. The reasons for that are obvious: the old generation relied on painful and difficult communication systems and much of their knowledge was acquired through “real” talks with often “older and wiser” concholo- gists. This mainly happened during multiple conchological gatherings. In Belgium for example, we got 3 such gatherings a month, and many among us seldom skipped a re- union.

POIRIERIA Vol 9 Part 1 June 1977 JALCIS ( PICTOBALCIS ) APTICULATA (Sowerby) While the shells of our small, very slender species of the genus Bale is are invariably white - sometimes porcellanous and sometimes glossy - we seem to have gained fairly recently a species which is delightfully different. This is Pictobalcis articulata ., first recorded from New South Wales, and now not infrequently collected in beach drifts from Cape Maria .to at least as far South as Whangaruru. The first examples recorded in New Zealand were collected in 1971. The subgenus was apparently erected to contain those species which sport a colour pattern, and articulata has a very pleasing one - a central band of chestnut from which narrow chevrons extend from both sides , reaching almost to the sutures, Size of Cape Maria specimen. ' while from each varix runs a vertical stripe on the base of the shell. Ground colour is porcellanous white. The largest examples I have seen came from Cape Maria van Diemen and measured just over '30mm x which is considerably larger than the type specimen from Australia. The molluscs belonging to this genus are parasitic - mostly on echinoderms, but v;e dOj in fact, know very little about the hosts of our own New Zealand. species , most of which are no more than 5 or 6 ram in length. * * * * * A NOTE ON DREDGING OFF TOLAGA BAY R, M.

  • The Cone Collector N°26
    THE CONE COLLECTOR #26 December 2014 THE Note from CONE the Editor COLLECTOR Dear friends, Editor The year 2014 has been quite rich with interesting events and António Monteiro publications for Cone lovers. Layout For one thing, we had our 3rd International Cone Meeting, André Poremski held in Madrid in the first weekend in October, and what a Contributors great meeting it was! The organization was flawless, the talks Michel Balleton were mightily interesting, the ambiance was excellent, the Bill Fenzan weather was brilliant. What more can one ask for? You will Joaquin M. Inchaustegui read more about it in the present issue of TCC. Janine Jacques Gavin Malcolm Shortly before that, Alan Kohn’s long awaited book on Western Andrea Nappo Atlantic Cones was published at last. Controversial in some José Rosado respects (such as resorting to the use of a single genus, or the David Touitou John K. Tucker criteria for specific separation or synonymizing), it is an impor- Erasmus M. Vogl tant work that will fuel much discussion. You will also read a few comments in the following pages. In our usual section “Who’s Who in Cones”, you will get to know Gavin Malcolm a little better. As usual, there is also a detailed list of recent publications and newly described taxa. Several other articles will, I hope, be of interest to everybody. So, without further ado, enjoy the new issue of TCC!
