KeyWord單: Inquísitor, Brachytoma, Thrridae, new record, n. sp., Taiwan. INTRODUCTION Jnquisitor and Brachytoma of 翎討 ids are dis仕ibuted in Indo-Pacific. Jnquisitor are mainly found in West Pacific from Australia to Japan and South African Waters. Brachytoma are mainly found in Tropical lndian Ocean from Oman, India to South China Sea. Taiwan is located at the mìddle of the v.乍到 Pacific Link and near the end of the Tropical Indian Ocean Link. Taiwan is also located in the subtropical zone between the Philippines and Japan. Hence, a lot of Jnquisitor and some Brachytoma from both temperate zone and tropical zone are available ín Taiwan Waters. The separation of Jnquisitor and Brachytoma is the first problem to be solved when FarnHy Turridae is separated into Farnilies Turridae, Clavid尉, Pseudomelatomidae and Mange1iidae (Chang 1995). lnquisitor andβrachytoma have similar protoconch and shell morphology, both Thiele (1929心 935) and Powell (1966) put them as synonymy. Some βrac equ凶lÏ 討s i扭 limbs 戶j oi泌ne叫d tωo forrn a central channel. Kilbum doubted that the teeth may be modified wishbone teeth (Taylor et al. 1993). If so, both lnquisitor and Brachytoma should be combined together into a sìn容le group. There are many genera such as lnquisitor, Funa" Pseudoinquisitor, Brachytoma, Ptychobela and Compsodrillia (Mammilaedrillìa) used for the group of shel1s whose conchological features are listed as follows: 1. Shell, medium sized, 11-65mm, elongate fusiforrn with tall spire of comparatively light built, 2. Scu1pture of stron忍 axials crossed by spiral cords and threads below a concave shoulder sulcus. Subsutural cord, strong, weak or obsolete. 3. Ape從ure , narrowly ovate-pyriforrn contracted narrowly below to a short to moderately long anterior canal. Outer lip, thin with more or less a stromboid notch at the lower pa哎, 4. Sinus, U翩 shaped on shoulder slope with a parietal cal1us p揖 d. A dorsal varix, apart, near or at the sinus, 5. Protoconch, conical ofup to 5 smoo也 whorls , usually 2刁 whorls , 雀,瓜, 6. Color, white, yellow to chocola峙, mostly yellow, and ir--Eph-- 7. Opercul凶n , leaf-shaped with terrninal nucleus. The type of radula of 也早 se species m益y be modified duplex or tubular, toxoglossate-like. Thiele •• (1929) located these shells under subfamily Brachytominae (now belonging to Mangeliidae). Powell (1966) put them under subfamily Clavinae (now Clavinae + Crassispirinae). In 1988, Kilbum put those having modified duplex radula into subfamily Crassisipirinae and in 1989, he found that the tubular radula of some shells 挂re forrned from two compone泌的 afo口至1 of modified duplex typ然 not 仕ue * :To whom correspondence and reprint requests should be addressed. 通訊作者:]6.文降,中央研究設動物研究所,靈北市南海區研究院路 2 段 128 號 14 C.

(1993) placed this group of shells under subfamily Crassispinae of Family Turridae but not under his Conid配合忽略 eliìdae + Conidae). It is so hard to separate those above mentioned 伊nera that many different genera have been used for a sin答 le species usually by the previous authors. In this papeζwe prefer use Inquisitor for all the other genera (Funa, Pseudoinquisìtor, Brachyton嗨 , Ptychobe俗 , Compsodrillia and Mammilaedrillia.

E-mail: [email protected] 2 Department of Zoology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, U.K. E-mail: [email protected] (Accepted 21 October 1999) Abstract Four main types of radula are found within the gastropod superfamily Conoidea. Type 1, the Clavidae type has ®ve teeth in each row with comb-like laterals and ¯at pointed marginals. Type 2, the Turridae type has two or three teeth in a row with the marginals comprised of teeth with the duplex or wishbone form. Type 3, the Pseudomelatomidae/Pervicaciinae type has two or three teeth in a row with the marginals curved and solid. Type 4, the hypodermic type has two hollow, enrolled, marginal teeth in each row with the radular membrane reduced or absent. Study of the maturing teeth along the radular membrane in gastropods with the Type 2 radula shows that the duplex teeth are not formed from two separate elements but develop from a ¯at plate, by thickening of the tooth edges and elevation of the posterior edge from the membrane. Semi-enrolled and enrolled teeth of Pilsbryspira, Imaclava and Toxiclionella develop in a similar way. In Conidae where a vestigial radular membrane is attached only at the base of the teeth, the teeth are enrolled from ®rst formation in the radular sac.

Zoosystema2\ (2): 171-198. ABSTRACT The foregut anatomy of 20 species, belonging to eight genera, of the sub­ family Cochlespirinae is described. A cladistic analysis based on several most important characters (morphology of proboscis, position of buccal sphinc­ ters, histology of venom gland, position of the venom gland opening, struc­ ture of muscular bulb, and morphology of radular teeth) revealed three more or less well-defined groups within the subfamily. The main feature characte­ rizing the subfamily as a whole and separating groups within it, appeared to be the structure of venom gland and its muscular bulb. The subgenus KEYWORDS Cochlespirinae, Sibogasyrinx of the genus Leucosyrinx was shown to deserve a genus status.

Romagna, 26: 1-80 giugno 2008 ISSN 1123-6787 Cesare Tabanelli ASSOCIAZIONI DI PALEOCOMUNITÁ BATIALI A MOLLUSCHI BENTONICI NEL PLIOCENE DELLA ROMAGNA Metodologie ed indicazioni per nuove tematiche Riassunto L’autore analizza l’importanza che i fattori temperatura e batimetria hanno sulla distribuzione del bentos marino. Esamina poi i riferimenti bibliografici secondo i quali durante il Pliocene il Mare Mediterraneo era contrassegnato da una circolazione delle acque di tipo oceanico. Stando a questo modello erano presenti due corpi d’acqua aventi peculiarità termiche diverse: uno superiore di acque temperate calde (termosfera) ed uno inferiore di acque profonde fredde (psicrosfera). Conseguentemente essi dovevano essere separati da una zona di transizione (termoclino). Attualmente in Mediterraneo vige invece uno stato di omotermia calda. L’autore propone quindi di inquadrare le paleocomunità a molluschi bentonici relative al piano batiale, in tre diversi tipi di associazioni così denominate: - Associazione delle Paleocomunità soggette all’influenza della Termosfera (A.P.T.). - Associazione delle Paleocomunità soggette all’influenza della Psicrosfera (A.P.P.). - Associazione delle Paleocomunità Interposte (A.P.I.), ubicate nella zona del termoclino. Le prime due associazioni sono soprannominate “primarie” e le relative specie, sulla base dei dati riscontrati in campagna e desunti dalla bibliografia, vengono distinte in “esclusive” e “preferenziali”. Con il termine “abituali” sono state invece indicate quelle specie euriterme capaci di adattarsi sia sui fondali sottoposti all’influenza della termosfera che della psicrosfera. Questa suddivisione in categorie ha condotto alla realizzazione della tabella 1. Questa tiene conto solo delle specie ritrovate nei depositi profondi della successione romagnola e conseguentemente fa riferimento anche a dati inediti.

  • Mollusca, Gastropoda : Family Mitridae )
    MITRES OF INDIAN WATERS~ (Mollusca, Gastropoda : Family Mitridae_) By H. C. RAY, M.So., D. Phil., F.Z.S.I., Zoologioal Survey of India, Jabakusum House, Caloutta. (Plates I-III.) INTRODUCTION. A detailed review of the litera,ture on Mitridae shows that Indian 1Vlitres have so far been treated only casually along with other marine molluscs by several workers, namely, von Frauenfeld1, Nevill2, Smith3, Thurston4, Melvill and Abercrombie 5, Melvill and Sykes6, Melvill and Standen7, Preston8, Melvill9, Burton10, Crichton1!, Gravely 12, Horne1l13, PatiP4 and Satyamurti15• But no separate aocount dealing with the Indian Mitridae has hitherto been published in line with the regional studies as attempted by Garrett (Mitridae of Raro­ tonga and Polynesia)16, Dautzenberg and Bouge (Mitridae of New Caledonia)17, Dautzen­ berg (Mitrida,e of Netherland East Indies)18, Allan (Mitres of Australia)19 and Laseron (Mitras of New South Wa.Ies)20. The latter type of work is essentially needed for workers in this Gountry. Such a work would be still more useful, if necessary details relating to the number of species and varieties inhabiting the area, such as, tHeir up-to-date nomen­ clature and synonymy, classification, distinctive features of diagnosis and affinity, type­ loeality and range of distributioJJ, etc., are also included; this has been attempted in the present paper.

The potential of conoidean toxins has been realized with the distribution of the first Conus (cone snail) drug, Prialt (ziconotide), an analgesic used to alleviate chronic pain in HIV and cancer patients. Cone snail toxins (conotoxins) are highly variable, a consequence of a high mutation rate associated to duplication events and positive selection. As Conus and terebrids diverged in the early Paleocene, the toxins from terebrids (teretoxins) may demonstrate highly divergent and unique functionalities. Recent analyses of the Terebri- dae, a largely distributed family with more than 300 described species, indicate they have evolutionary and phar- macological potential. Based on a three gene (COI, 12S and 16S) molecular phylogeny, including ~50 species from the West-Pacific, five main terebrid lineages were discriminated: two of these lineages independently lost their venom apparatus, and one venomous lineage was previously unknown.
