  • Rocky Shore Snails As Material for Projects (With a Key for Their Identification)
    Field Studies, 10, (2003) 601 - 634 ROCKY SHORE SNAILS AS MATERIAL FOR PROJECTS (WITH A KEY FOR THEIR IDENTIFICATION) J. H. CROTHERS Egypt Cottage, Fair Cross, Washford, Watchet, Somerset TA23 0LY ABSTRACT Rocky sea shores are amongst the best habitats in which to carry out biological field projects. In that habitat, marine snails (prosobranchs) offer the most opportunities for individual investigations, being easy to find, to identify, to count and to measure and beng sufficiently robust to survive the experience. A key is provided for the identification of the larger species and suggestions are made for investigations to exploit selected features of individual species. INTRODUCTION Rocky sea shores offer one of the best habitats for individual or group investigations. Not only is there de facto public access (once you have got there) but also the physical factors that dominate the environment - tides (inundation versus desiccation), waves, heat, cold, light, dark, salinity etc. - change significantly over a few metres in distance. As a bonus, most of the fauna and flora lives out on the open rock surface and patterns of distribution may be clearly visible to the naked eye. Finally, they are amongst the most ‘natural’ of habitats in the British Isles; unless there has been an oil spill, rocky sea shores are unlikely to have been greatly affected by covert human activity. Some 270 species of marine snail (Phylum Mollusca, Class Gastropoda; Sub-Class Prosobranchia) live in the seas around the British Isles (Graham, 1988) and their empty shells may be found on many beaches. Most of these species are small (less than 3 mm long) or live beneath the tidemarks.

  • Age and Growth of Two Sympatric Squid Loligo Vulgaris and Loligo Forbesi, in Galician Waters (North-West Spain)
    J. Mar. Biol. Ass. U.K. (1999), 79, 697^707 Printed in the United Kingdom Age and growth of two sympatric squid Loligo vulgaris and Loligo forbesi, in Galician waters (north-west Spain) F. Rocha and A. Guerra Instituto de Investigaciones Marinas (CSIC), Eduardo Cabello 6, 36208 Vigo, Spain Age and growth of Loligo vulgaris and L. forbesi were studied by the examination of growth increments in 96 and 135 selected (white zone 510%) statoliths, respectively. Squid were obtained by monthly sampling from the catches of commercial trawling and hand-jigs in Galician waters (north-west Spain) between February 1991 and October 1993. Mantle length (ML) of L. vulgaris ranged from 70 to 480 mm and varied between 70 and 685 mm in L. forbesi. A negative allometry between statolith length and ML or body weight (BW) was found in both species. Sexual dimorphism was apparent in both species, males grew faster and longer than females. The statolith analysis suggests that growth patterns of L. vulgaris and L. forbesi in Galician waters are di¡erent. The exploited population of L. vulgaris was composed of two groups: one formed by individuals hatched in winter^spring and another by specimens hatched in summer^autumn. Squid hatched in winter^spring reached larger sizes at the same age than those hatched in summer^autumn. These two groups were also observed in L. forbesi. However, squid of this species hatched in winter^spring were smaller than those hatched in summer^autumn at the same age. Reasons for this discrepancy are discussed. The life span of L.

  • Patellid Limpets: an Overview of the Biology and Conservation of Keystone Species of the Rocky Shores
    Chapter 4 Patellid Limpets: An Overview of the Biology and Conservation of Keystone Species of the Rocky Shores Paulo Henriques, João Delgado and Ricardo Sousa Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/67862 Abstract This work reviews a broad spectrum of subjects associated to Patellid limpets’ biology such as growth, reproduction, and recruitment, also the consequences of commercial exploitation on the stocks and the effects of marine protected areas (MPAs) in the biology and populational dynamics of these intertidal grazers. Knowledge of limpets’ biological traits plays an important role in providing proper background for their effective man- agement. This chapter focuses on determining the effect of biotic and abiotic factors that influence these biological characteristics and associated geographical patterns. Human exploitation of limpets is one of the main causes of disturbance in the intertidal ecosys- tem and has occurred since prehistorical times resulting in direct and indirect alterations in the abundance and size structure of the target populations. The implementation of MPAs has been shown to result in greater biomass, abundance, and size of limpets and to counter other negative anthropogenic effects. However, inefficient planning and lack of surveillance hinder the accomplishment of the conservation purpose of MPAs. Inclusive conservation approaches involving all the stakeholders could guarantee future success of conservation strategies and sustainable exploitation. This review also aims to estab- lish how beneficial MPAs are in enhancing recruitment and yield of adjacent exploited populations. Keywords: Patellidae, limpets, fisheries, MPAs, conservation 1.

  • The Shell Midden of Pico Ramos and the Exploitation of Molluscs in the Cantabrian Region (Northern Spain)
    The shell midden of Pico Ramos and the exploitation of molluscs in the Cantabrian region (northern Spain) 1 Igor Gutiérrez-Zugasti 1 Instituto Internacional de Investigaciones Prehistóricas de Cantabria, Universidad de Cantabria. Edificio Interfacultativo, Avda. Los Castros s/n. 39005 Santander, Spain. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Human groups exploited molluscs during the Mesolithic-Neolithic transition (MNT) at Pico Ramos. Results show that the most exploited species were limpets and topshells collected in rocky open shores, while other species were collected in estuaries. Therefore, different environments were exploited by human groups. This pattern is related to the location of the cave in the mouth of the estuary. The exploitation pattern suggests that collection was carried out in several short visits to the cave. The characteristics of the accumulation also fit the pattern of intensification identified in the region, which show that molluscs were important for human groups during the Mesolithic and the early Neolithic. However, it is difficult to establish if Pico Ramos was used by hunter-gatherers resisting the introduction of agriculture and domestication, or if on the contrary it was a specialized site used by food producers for hunting-fishing-gathering activities. Keywords: shell midden; archaeomalacology, Mesolithic Neolithic transition, hunter-fisher-gatherers, Cantabrian region. 1. Introduction coexisted with the first evidence of neolithization.

The inshore 19 recreational fishery in the southern waters Mallorca (Balearic Islands) concentrates 20 within a narrow, well-delineated area and takes place during a very specific period of 21 the day (sunset). Another closely related species, Loligo reynaudii, displays a daily 22 activity cycle during the spawning season (“feeding-at-night and spawning-in-the-day”). 23 Here, the hypothesis that L. vulgaris could display a similar daily activity pattern has 24 been tested using acoustic tracking telemetry. Two tracking experiments during May- 25 July 2010 and December 2010-March 2011 were conducted, in which a total of 26 squid 26 were tagged. The results obtained suggested that L. vulgaris movements differ between 27 day and night. The squid seem to move within a small area during the daytime but it 28 would cover a larger area from sunset to sunrise.
