However, little 15 is known about these planktonic veligers and identification of the larval state of many Cymatiidae 16 is challenging at best. Here we describe the first high-quality scanning electron microscopy images 17 of the developing veliger larvae of Monoplex pilearis and Monoplex parthenopeus (Gastropoda: 18 Cymatiidae). The developing shell of Monoplex veligers was captured by SEM, showing plates 19 secreted to form the completed shell. The incubation time of the two species was recorded and 20 found to be different; M. parthenopeus took 24 days to develop fully and hatch out of the egg 21 capsules, whereas M. pilearis took over a month to leave the egg capsule. Using scanning electron 22 microscopy and geometric morphometrics, the morphology of veliger larvae was compared. No 23 significant differences were found between the shapes of the developing shell between the two 24 species; however, it was found that M. pilearis was significantly larger than M.

ZooKeys 963: 1–36. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.963.52234 Abstract An increase in richness of benthic marine mollusks towards high latitudes has been described on the Pacific coast of Chile in recent decades. This considerable increase in diversity occurs specifically at the beginning of the Magellanic Biogeographic Province. Within this province lies the Strait of Magellan, considered the most important channel because it connects the South Pacific and Atlantic Oceans. These characteristics make it an interesting area for marine research; thus, the Strait of Magellan has histori- cally been the area with the greatest research effort within the province.

  • Large-Scale Gene Flow in the Barnacle Jehlius Cirratus and Contrasts with Other Broadly-Distributed Taxa Along the Chilean Coast
    Large-scale gene flow in the barnacle Jehlius cirratus and contrasts with other broadly-distributed taxa along the Chilean coast Baoying Guo1 and John P. Wares2 1 College of Marine Science and Technology, Zhejiang Ocean University, Zhoushan, Zhejiang, China 2 Department of Genetics and Odum School of Ecology, University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA ABSTRACT We evaluate the population genetic structure of the intertidal barnacle Jehlius cirratus across a broad portion of its geographic distribution using data from the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I (COI) gene region. Despite sampling diversity from over 3,000 km of the linear range of this species, there is only slight regional structure indicated, with overall 8CT of 0.036 (p < 0:001) yet no support for isolation by distance. While these results suggest greater structure than previous studies of J. cirratus had indicated, the pattern of diversity is still far more subtle than in other similarly-distributed species with similar larval and life history traits. We compare these data and results with recent findings in four other intertidal species that have planktotrophic larvae. There are no clear patterns among these taxa that can be associated with intertidal depth or other known life history traits.

The capsule wall is laminated and its dimensions change during develop- ment. Dissolution of the capsule wall releases dissolved organic matter (DOM) into the intracapsular fluid, providing a nutritional source for the embryo. The capsule wall of Acanthina monodon is composed of three layers, a thin outer layer with projections to the exterior, a thicker intermediate layer containing vacuoles and a thin inner layer that gives rise to the hatching plug.

Here we confirm the identification and establishment of a recently-detected population of Crepipatella in northern Spain. Because their shells do not have many diagnostic features, introductions of calyptraeids are often accompanied by confusion about the identity and therefore origin of the species in question. We use DNA sequence data and developmental observations to verify the species identity of this population as the South American species Crepipatella dilatata. The apparently rapid spread of this species, which lacks a larval stage, may be due to human action. Key words: Galicia, Crepidula, barcode, COI, direct development, exotic species Several species of calyptraeid gastropods and is now widespread in Korea, Japan, and (slipper limpets, cup-and-saucer limpets, and hat Hong Kong (Choe and Park 1992; Ekawa 1985; limpets) have been introduced and established Morton 1987).

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Crepipatella occulta n. sp. is described from the intertidal zone in northern Chile. This species is morphologically cryptic with two other Crepipatella species from Chile, Crepipatella dilatata (Lamarck, 1822) and Crepipatella peruviana (Lamarck, 1822) (a senior synonym of C. fecunda), with respect to adult shell morphology and anatomy. However, Crepipatella occulta is clearly distinguishable from both of them on the basis of embryonic development. It can be distinguished from Crepipatella peruviana, a planktotroph, and Crepipatella dilatata, a direct developer with uncleaved nurse eggs, because it has direct devel- opment with developing nurse embryos that are consumed before the juveniles hatch. Genetic data from DNA sequences also support the distinct status of this species, and show that the South African species C. capensis (Quoy & Gaimard, 1832–33) is more closely related to C. dilatata and C.
