Marine Boring Bivalve Mollusks from Isla Margarita, Venezuela

Fundación La Salle de Ciencias Naturales. Apartado 144 Porlama,. Isla de Margarita, Venezuela. ABSTRACT Marine endolithic and wood-boring bivalve mollusks living in rocks, corals, wood, and shells were surveyed on the Caribbean coast of Venezuela at Isla Margarita between 2004 and 2008. These surveys were supplemented with boring mollusk data from malacological collections in Venezuelan museums. A total of 571 individuals, corresponding to 3 orders, 4 families, 15 genera, and 20 species were identified and analyzed. The species with the widest distribution were: Leiosolenus aristatus which was found in 14 of the 24 localities, followed by Leiosolenus bisulcatus and Choristodon robustus, found in eight and six localities, respectively. The remaining species had low densities in the region, being collected in only one to four of the localities sampled. The total number of species reported here represents 68% of the boring mollusks that have been documented in Venezuelan coastal waters. This study represents the first work focused exclusively on the examination of the cryptofaunal mollusks of Isla Margarita, Venezuela. KEY WORDS Shipworms, cryptofauna, Teredinidae, Pholadidae, Gastrochaenidae, Mytilidae, Petricolidae, Margarita Island, Isla Margarita Venezuela, boring bivalves, endolithic. INTRODUCTION The lithophagans (Mytilidae) are among the Bivalve mollusks from a range of families have more recognized boring mollusks. -

Invertebrate ID Guide
11/13/13 1 This book is a compilation of identification resources for invertebrates found in stomach samples. By no means is it a complete list of all possible prey types. It is simply what has been found in past ChesMMAP and NEAMAP diet studies. A copy of this document is stored in both the ChesMMAP and NEAMAP lab network drives in a folder called ID Guides, along with other useful identification keys, articles, documents, and photos. If you want to see a larger version of any of the images in this document you can simply open the file and zoom in on the picture, or you can open the original file for the photo by navigating to the appropriate subfolder within the Fisheries Gut Lab folder.

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.

Morphological Description of Cyrtopleura Costata (Bivalvia: Pholadidae) from Southern Brazil

Simone² ¹ Universidade Federal do Paraná (UFPR), Setor de Ciências Biológicas, Departamento de Zoologia (DZOO), Programa de Pós-Graduação em Zoologia. Curitiba, PR, Brasil. ORCID: http://orcid.org/0000-0002-3031-783X. E-mail: [email protected] ² Universidade de São Paulo (USP), Museu de Zoologia (MZUSP). São Paulo, SP, Brasil. ORCID: http://orcid.org/0000-0002-1397-9823. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract. The aim of the study is to describe in detail, for the first time, the internal and external anatomy of Cyrtopleura costata, which displays ellipsoid and elongated valves with beige periostracum, the anterior adductor muscle unites the valves in the pre- umbonal region, with abduction capacity in its dorsal half, sparing the ligament. Two accessory valves are identified: the mesoplax (calcified) located in the umbonal region; and the protoplax (corneus) above the anterior adductor muscle. Internally there is a pair of well-developed apophysis that supports the labial palps and the pedal muscles, and support part of the gills. The posterior half of mantle ventral edge is fused and richly muscular, working as auxiliary adductor muscle. The siphons are completely united with each other, the incurrent being larger than the excurrent. The foot is small (about ⅛ the size of the animal). The kidneys extend laterally on the dorsal surface, solid, presenting a brown/reddish color. The style sac is well developed and entirely detached from the adjacent intestine. The intestine has numerous loops and curves within the visceral mass. The fecal pellets are coin-shaped. -

INTRODUCTION, SYSTEMATIC SURVEY AND PAGE REFERENCES The first part of this work, published in 1969, is a general introduction to the Suriname marine Mollusca; in the second part, published in 1971, the Bivalvia and Scaphopoda were treated; in this third and last part the Gastropoda and Cephalopoda are dealt with. The system adopted in this part is that of Thiele (1929, 1931), but more or less altered at several places, in nomenclature as well as in se- quence. The holotypes of the species described by the author (1965, 1966, 1968, 1971a and in this paper) are placed in the Rijksmuseum van Na- tuurlijke Historie at Leiden, except the holotype of Solariorbis guianensis Altena which is in the Surinaams Museum at Paramaribo. The Suri- naams Museum holds also paratypes of the other new species described by the author and specimens of about all the species found on the shell ridges, washed ashore, or dredged off the coast of Suriname as far as they were mentioned in Part II and III of this publication. Many persons, who here helpful to me by sending specimens or identi- fying them, were mentioned in Part I and II of this paper. -
Spisula Solidissima): a Step Towards Diversifying the New Jersey Shellfish Aquaculture Sector
THERMAL TOLERANCE OF JUVENILE ATLANTIC SURFCLAMS (SPISULA SOLIDISSIMA): A STEP TOWARDS DIVERSIFYING THE NEW JERSEY SHELLFISH AQUACULTURE SECTOR Michael P. Acquafredda*, Daphne Munroe, Lisa M. Calvo, Michael P. De Luca Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, Haskin Shellfish Research Laboratory, 6959 Miller Avenue, Port Norris, New Jersey 08349 [email protected] New Jersey shellfish aquaculture is currently limited to two species: the northern quahog (=hard clam) (Mercenaria mercenaria) and the eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica); however, shellfish farmers eager to diversify have expressed interest in culturing new species. The Atlantic surfclam (Spisula solidissima) represents an ideal target species for diversification because it is native, grows rapidly, and fits into the established farming framework. To optimize the husbandry techniques required for sustainable and profitable farming, it is necessary to gain a thorough understanding of how temperature impacts the performance of the surfclam throughout its different developmental stages. This study examined the effects of five different temperatures (≈18˚C, 20˚C, 23˚C, 24˚C, and 26˚C) on the growth and survival of juvenile surfclams (shell length = 0.69–3.00 mm). Three independent cohorts were tracked for several weeks and cultured using downweller and upweller systems. Shell length and survival estimates were collected 2–3 times per week. Results suggest that colder temperatures reduce clam mortality, while temperatures between 20 and 24˚C promote the greatest growth. The parentage of each cohort also had a significant impact on growth and survival, suggesting there is a genetic component to surf clam thermal tolerance. These findings and the results from our on-going surfclam aquaculture optimization studies will be incorporated into a manual of best practices.
