  • 22 April 2013 the Note from CONE the Editor COLLECTOR Dear Friends
    THE CONE COLLECTOR #22 April 2013 THE Note from CONE the Editor COLLECTOR Dear friends, Editor The project “The Cone Collector” is still under seven years old António Monteiro and yet when I look at all we have achieved so far I cannot help thinking that we have probably exceeded expectations. Layout André Poremski We started modestly – as becomes any serious project – back in Contributors October 2006, with our newsletter aimed at all those who are Carlos Afonso interested in studying or collecting Cones, from professional Jim Cootes biologists to amateur collectors. Today we can proudly display Remy Devorsine a total of twenty-four numbers of TCC, two hugely successful Sébastien Dutertre international meetings and a website that brings together an Günther Herndl unparalleled wealth of information on Cones. Joaquin M. Inchaustegui Bruce Livett As a matter of fact, after the uploading in our website (at www. Philippe Quiquandon Christopher Roux theconecollector.com ) of the important and vastly updated Manuel Jiménez Tenorio and augmented work by Mike Filmer’s involving taxonomy and Will van Damme nomenclature, we now have at the same address Paul Kersten’s Alessandro Zanzi extremely useful and well-known Checklist, enriched with new images and much more detailed information than before. This is the work of a team – the names of Manuel Jimenez Tenorio, Bill Fenzan, John Tucker, Gavin Malcolm, Mike Filmer, Paul Kersten and André Poremski readily come to my mind as front row collaborators of TCC, but all others who have contributed with articles, photos, opinions, suggestions and unfailing support deserve equal credit! The project belongs to all and can only survive with the continued support of all.

Accepted: July 28, 2018 Data deposition: Raw RNA seq data: SRA database: project number SRP139515 (SRR6983161-SRR6983169) Abstract The transcriptome of the venom duct of the Atlantic piscivorous cone species Chelyconus ermineus (Born, 1778) was determined. The venom repertoire of this species includes at least 378 conotoxin precursors, which could be ascribed to 33 known and 22 new (unassigned) protein superfamilies, respectively. Most abundant superfamilies were T, W, O1, M, O2, and Z, accounting for 57% of all detected diversity. A total of three individuals were sequenced showing considerable intraspecific variation: each individual had many exclusive conotoxin precursors, and only 20% of all inferred mature peptides were common to all individuals. Three different regions (distal, medium, and proximal with respect to the venom bulb) of the venom duct were analyzed independently. Diversity (in terms of number of distinct members) of conotoxin precursor superfamilies increased toward the distal region whereas transcripts detected toward the proximal region showed higher expression levels.

    Phylum Mollusca 1. Snail Movement Marine snails such as Littorina littorea, L. obtusata, and L. saxatilus can be collected in the rocky intertidal year round. Refer to the photographs of the three species of Littorina in the MITZI Image Library. L. saxatilus lives in the upper rocky intertidal in rock crevices and may also be found in upper tide pools. L. obtusata is common on the surface of or underneath brown algae (Ascophyllum or Fucus )in the brown algal zone while the periwinkle Littorina littorea is abundant in the mid to lower rocky intertidal as well as in upper to mid tide level tidal pools. <<Activity>> Waves of muscular contractions on the bottom of the foot move most marine gastropods snails. Place a marine snail (Littorina littorea, L. obtusata, L. saxatilus) in a glass dish filled with seawater. Allow time for the foot to attach to the bottom of the dish, and then pour out the water, invert the dish and examine under a dissecting microscope. The waves of muscle contraction should be obvious. On the basis of your observations describe in depth how the animal moves in a forward direction. Freshwater snails can be substituted for marine forms. 2. Snail Feeding-Radula Tracks As snails move forward the radula is extended from the mouth and rocked back and forth over the substratum. The radula teeth scrape the surface directing food into the mouth. The scrape marks can be observed as snails move across a glass plate coated with India ink or a suitable substitute. Freshwater snails can be substituted for marine snails.

Attenuiconus cies of Sandericonus, which was also present in the bot- marileeae was collected at substantially greater depths than any tle samples. of its Caribbean congeners. Only A. aureonimbosus,fromthe northeastern Gulf of Mexico, inhabits comparable depths. Like all species of Attenuiconus, nearly all specimens A. marileeae SYSTEMATICS have one or more major repaired breaks indicative of unsuccess- ful attacks by crustaceans.

Vermeij; e-mail: [email protected] Downloaded from (Received 5 September 2013; accepted 10 February 2014) ABSTRACT The shells of many marine gastropods have ventrally directed serrations (serial projections) at the edge http://mollus.oxfordjournals.org/ of the adult outer lip. These poorly studied projections arise as extensions either of external spiral cords or of interspaces between cords. This paper describes taxonomic, phylogenetic, architectural and func- tional aspects of serrations. Cord-associated serrations occur in cerithiids, strombids, the personid Distorsio anus, ocenebrine muricids and some cancellariids. Interspace-associated serrations are phylo- genetically much more widespread, and occur in at least 16 family-level groups. The nature of serration may be taxonomically informative in some fissurellids, littorinids, strombids and costellariids, among other groups. Serrated outer lips occur only in gastropods in which the apex points more backward than upward, but the presence of serrations is not a necessary byproduct of the formation of spiral sculp- tural elements.

  • Rumahlatu D., Leiwakabessy F., 2017 Biodiversity of Gastropoda in the Coastal Waters of Ambon Island, Indonesia
    Biodiversity of gastropoda in the coastal waters of Ambon Island, Indonesia Dominggus Rumahlatu, Fredy Leiwakabessy Biology Education Study Program, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education Science, Pattimura University, Ambon, Indonesia. Corresponding author: D. Rumahlatu, [email protected] Abstract. Gastropods belonging to the mollusk phylum are widespread in various ecosystems. Ecologically, the spread of gastropoda is influenced by environmental factors, such as temperature, salinity, pH and dissolved oxygen. This research was conducted to determine the correlation between the factors of physico-chemical environment and the diversity of gastropoda in coastal water of Ambon Island, Indonesia. This research was conducted at two research stations, namely Station 1 at Ujung Tanjung Latuhalat Beach and Station 2 at coastal water of Waitatiri Passo. The results of a survey revealed that the average temperature on station 1 was 31.14°C while the average temperature of ° station 2 was 29.90 C. The average salinity at Station 1 was 32.02%o whereas the salinity average at Station 2 was 30.31%o. The average pH in station 1 and 2 was 7.03, while the dissolved oxygen at station 1 was 7.68 ppm which was not far different from that in station 2 with the dissolved oxygen of 7.63 ppm. The total number of species found in both research stations was 65 species, with the types of gastropoda were found scattered in 48 genera, 19 families and 7 orders. The most commonly found gastropods were from the genus of Nerita and Conus. 40 species were found in station 1 and 40 species were found in station 2.

Thesis Committee: Names Signatures Jon-Paul Bingham (Chair) ___________________________ Harry Ako ___________________________ Cynthia Hunter ___________________________ ii Acknowledgements The author would like to take a moment to appreciate a notable few out of the army of supporters who came out during this arduously long scholastic process without whom this work would never have been. First and foremost, a “thank you” is owed to the USDA TSTAR program whose funds kept the snails alive and solvents flowing through the RP-HPLC. Likewise, the infrastructure, teachings and financial support from the University of Hawai‘i and more specifically the College of Tropical Agriculture and Human Resources provided a fertile environment conducive to cutting edge science. Through the 3 years over which this study took place, I found myself indebted to two distinct groups of students from Dr. Bingham’s lab. Those who worked primarily in the biochemical laboratory saved countless weekend RP-HPLC runs from disaster through due diligence while patiently schooling me on my deficiencies in biochemical processes and techniques.
