Population Structure, Distribution and Harvesting of Southern Geoduck, Panopea Abbreviata, in San Matías Gulf (Patagonia, Argentina)
Scientia Marina 74(4) December 2010, 763-772, Barcelona (Spain) ISSN: 0214-8358 doi: 10.3989/scimar.2010.74n4763 Population structure, distribution and harvesting of southern geoduck, Panopea abbreviata, in San Matías Gulf (Patagonia, Argentina) ENRIQUE MORSAN 1, PAULA ZAIDMAN 1,2, MATÍAS OCAMPO-REINALDO 1,3 and NÉSTOR CIOCCO 4,5 1 Instituto de Biología Marina y Pesquera Almirante Storni, Universidad Nacional del Comahue, Guemes 1030, 8520 San Antonio Oeste, Río Negro, Argentina.

SUMMARY: Southern geoduck is the most long-lived bivalve species exploited in the South Atlantic and is harvested by divers in San Matías Gulf. Except preliminary data on growth and a gametogenic cycle study, there is no basic information that can be used to manage this resource in terms of population structure, harvesting, mortality and inter-population compari- sons of growth. Our aim was to analyze the spatial distribution from survey data, population structure, growth and mortality of several beds along a latitudinal gradient based on age determination from thin sections of valves. We also described the spatial allocation of the fleet’s fishing effort, and its sources of variability from data collected on board. Three geoduck beds were located and sampled along the coast: El Sótano, Punta Colorada and Puerto Lobos. Geoduck ages ranged between 2 and 86 years old. Growth patterns showed significant differences in the asymptotic size between El Sótano (109.4 mm) and Puerto Lobos (98.06 mm). -
John Day Fossil Beds National Monument
ISSUE VIII JANUARY 2007 NARG Newsletter North America Research Group Northwest Fossil Fest Recap Last August NARG held it's first annual Northwest Fossil Fest held at INSIDE THIS ISSUE the Rice Museum in Hillsboro Oregon. The goal of the Fest was to NW Fossil Fest Recap 1 promote, educate, showcase fossils Radiocarbon Dating Fund 3 from the Pacific NW, and to have John Day Fossil Beds fun, all of which was accomplished. National Monument 3 Taxonomy Report #6 5 The tagline for the Fest is “Inspire, Inquire, Interact” and nothing What is “Fossil Search and Rescue? inspires more than displaying some of the amazing fossils specimens that Oregon Fossils have been found in the Pacific NW. Plants of the Jurassic Period 7 Tami Smith making a batch of Trilobite Cookie Many guests where surprised at the Trilobite Morphology 8 wide range of life forms that once lived where we do today. Inquiry minds want to know and we had a top-notch line up of guest speakers such as Dr. Dr. Ellen Morris Bishop, Dr. Jeffrey A. Myers, and Dr. William. N. Orr. This was a great opportunity for guest not only to learn more about the paleontology and geology of Oregon but also to meet 3 of the leading professionals in these fields. More Trilobite Cookie making There were many ways to interact, from the fossil preparation area where demonstrations took place on tools and techniques used to prepare fossils, to fossil identification, and of course all the kids activities that NARG setup. The Screen for Shark Teeth was probably the biggest hits and over 1000 Bone Valley shark teeth where given away. -
Small Scale Clam Farming in Washington
S m a l l - S c a l e CLAM Farming For PleaSure and ProFit in WaShington According to one Native American tale, the first humans arrived in the Pacific Northwest by stepping out of a clam shell. Since those ancient times, clams have had central roles in shaping the cultures and economies of the Pacific Northwest. For many shoreline property owners or leaseholders in Washington, clam farming is an enjoyable and sometimes profitable way to remain connected with the rich aquacultural legacy of the state. It is also a good way for them to become more aware of coastal processes such as sedimentation and erosion and to be vigilant for Spartina cordgrass, European green crab and other unintentionally introduced marine organisms. Two clam species — native littleneck clams and Manila clams — are routinely farmed in Washington. This publication introduces shoreline property owners and leaseholders to these two species and describes methods for growing clams for consumption. 1 2 IntroducIng two PoPular clams Three clam species — native littleneck clams (Protothaca staminea), Manila clams (Venerupis japonica) and geoduck clams (Panope abrupta) — are routinely farmed in Washington. Successful cultivation of geoduck clams entails different farming strategies and, as such, is not described in this introductory document. Native littleneck clams have been an important food On Washington beaches, Manila clams thrive in source of Northwest coastal Indian tribes. These clams protected bays and inlets on relatively stable have relatively thick shells that can attain a length of beaches with mixtures of gravel, sand, three inches. They can grow to a harvestable size in mud and shell. -

China (Received January 3, 2015; revised March 2, 2015; accepted December 29, 2015) © Ocean University of China, Science Press and Spring-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2016 Abstract Seasonal variation of biochemical components in clam (Saxidomus purpuratus Sowerby 1852) was investigated from March 2012 to February 2013 in relation to environmental condition of Sanggou Bay and the reproductive cycle of clam. According to the histological analysis, the reproductive cycle of S. purpuratus includes two distinctive phases: a total spent and inactive stage from November to January, and a gametogenesis stage, including ripeness and spawning, during the rest of the year. Gametes were generated at a low temperature (2.1℃) in February. Spawning took place once a year from June to October. The massive spawning occurred in August when the highest water temperature and chlorophyll a level could be observed. -
List of Bivalve Molluscs from British Columbia, Canada
List of Bivalve Molluscs from British Columbia, Canada Compiled by Robert G. Forsyth Research Associate, Invertebrate Zoology, Royal BC Museum, 675 Belleville Street, Victoria, BC V8W 9W2; [email protected] Rick M. Harbo Research Associate, Invertebrate Zoology, Royal BC Museum, 675 Belleville Street, Victoria BC V8W 9W2; [email protected] Last revised: 11 October 2013 INTRODUCTION Classification rankings are constantly under debate and review. The higher classification utilized here follows Bieler et al. (2010). Another useful resource is the online World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS; Gofas 2013) where the traditional ranking of Pteriomorphia, Palaeoheterodonta and Heterodonta as subclasses is used. This list includes 237 bivalve species from marine and freshwater habitats of British Columbia, Canada. Marine species (206) are mostly derived from Coan et al. (2000) and Carlton (2007). Freshwater species (31) are from Clarke (1981). Common names of marine bivalves are from Coan et al. (2000), who adopted most names from Turgeon et al. (1998); common names of freshwater species are from Turgeon et al. (1998). Changes to names or additions to the fauna since these two publications are marked with footnotes. Marine groups are in black type, freshwater taxa are in blue. Introduced (non-indigenous) species are marked with an asterisk (*). Marine intertidal species (n=84) are noted with a dagger (†). Quayle (1960) published a BC Provincial Museum handbook, The Intertidal Bivalves of British Columbia. Harbo (1997; 2011) provided illustrations and descriptions of many of the bivalves found in British Columbia, including an identification guide for bivalve siphons and “shows”. Lamb & Hanby (2005) also illustrated many species. -
