(UPD, Philippines) in September 2003 for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Marine Biology within the School of Marine Biology and Aquaculture James Cook University ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to describe the distribution of coral reef and shore gastropods in the Philippines, using the species rich taxa, Nerita, Clypeomorus, Muricidae, Littorinidae, Conus and Oliva. These taxa represent the major gastropod groups in the intertidal and shallow water ecosystems of the Philippines. This distribution is described with reference to the McManus (1985) basin isolation hypothesis of species diversity in Southeast Asia. I examine species-area relationships, range sizes and shapes, major ecological factors that may affect these relationships and ranges, and a phylogeny of one taxon. Range shape and orientation is largely determined by geography. Large ranges are typical of mid-intertidal herbivorous species. Triangualar shaped or narrow ranges are typical of carnivorous taxa. Narrow, overlapping distributions are more common in the central Philippines. The frequency of range sizesin the Philippines has the right skew typical of tropical high diversity systems.

  • THE LISTING of PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS Guido T
    August 2017 Guido T. Poppe A LISTING OF PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS - V1.00 THE LISTING OF PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS Guido T. Poppe INTRODUCTION The publication of Philippine Marine Mollusks, Volumes 1 to 4 has been a revelation to the conchological community. Apart from being the delight of collectors, the PMM started a new way of layout and publishing - followed today by many authors. Internet technology has allowed more than 50 experts worldwide to work on the collection that forms the base of the 4 PMM books. This expertise, together with modern means of identification has allowed a quality in determinations which is unique in books covering a geographical area. Our Volume 1 was published only 9 years ago: in 2008. Since that time “a lot” has changed. Finally, after almost two decades, the digital world has been embraced by the scientific community, and a new generation of young scientists appeared, well acquainted with text processors, internet communication and digital photographic skills. Museums all over the planet start putting the holotypes online – a still ongoing process – which saves taxonomists from huge confusion and “guessing” about how animals look like. Initiatives as Biodiversity Heritage Library made accessible huge libraries to many thousands of biologists who, without that, were not able to publish properly. The process of all these technological revolutions is ongoing and improves taxonomy and nomenclature in a way which is unprecedented. All this caused an acceleration in the nomenclatural field: both in quantity and in quality of expertise and fieldwork. The above changes are not without huge problematics. Many studies are carried out on the wide diversity of these problems and even books are written on the subject.

  • The Genital Systems of Trivia Arctica and Trivia Monacha (Prosobranchia, Mesogastropoda) and Tributyltin Induced Imposex1
    Zoo1. Beitr. N. F. 34 (3): 349 - 374 (1992) (Institut für Spezielle Zoologie und Vergleichende Embryologie der Westfälischen Wilhelms-Universität Münster) The genital systems of Trivia arctica and Trivia monacha (Prosobranchia, Mesogastropoda) and tributyltin induced imposex1 EBERHARD STROBEN, CHRISTA BROlVlMEL, JORG OEHLMANN and PIO FIORONI Received June 17 , 1992 Summary The mesogastropod prosobranchs Trivia arctica and T. monacha collected along the coast of Brittany and Normandy between 1988 and 1992 exhibit imposex or pseudohermaphroditism (occurrence of male parts in addition to the female genital system) in response to tributyltin (TBT) pollution. Beside some normal females (stage 0) different imposex stages according to the classification of FIORONI et a1. (1991) (3 a, 3 band 4 for T. arctica and 3b and 4 for T. monacha) (Fig. 1) can be distinguished and are documented with scanning electron micrographs for the first time. Additional al­ terations of the genital tract e.g. excrescences on the vas deferens, a coiled oviduct, a bi- or trifurcated penis or several penes (2 - 5) are described. Neither TBT-induced sterilization nor sex change occur. TBT accumulation in soft parts shows sex-related differences. The VDS (vas deferens sequence) index, uncubed RPS (relative penis size) index and average female penis length of a population are dependent from TBT con­ centrations in ambient sea water and TBT body burden. A statistical study, based on an analysis of natural populations of T. arctica, T. monacha and Nucella lapillus allows a comparison of the specific TBT sensitivity of the three TBT bioindicators. N. lapillus exhibits a lower threshold for imposex development and a higher TBT sen­ sitivity, but both Trivia species proved to be suitable TBT bioindicators.

    Taxonomic study on the molluscs collected in Marion-Dufresne expedition (MD55) to SE Brazil: Xenophoridae, Cypraeoidea, mitriforms and Terebridae (Caenogastropoda) Luiz Ricardo L. SIMONE Carlo M. CUNHA Museu de Zoologia da Universidade de São Paulo, caixa postal 42494, 04218-970 São Paulo, SP (Brazil) [email protected] [email protected] Simone L. R. L. & Cunha C. M. 2012. — Taxonomic study on the molluscs collected in Marion-Dufresne expedition (MD55) to SE Brazil: Xenophoridae, Cypraeoidea, mitriforms and Terebridae (Caenogastropoda). Zoosystema 34 (4): 745-781. http://dx.doi.org/10.5252/z2012n4a6 ABSTRACT The deep-water molluscs collected during the expedition MD55 off SE Brazil have been gradually studied in some previous papers. The present one is focused on samples belonging to caenogastropod taxa Xenophoridae Troschel, 1852, Cypraeoidea Rafinesque, 1815, mitriforms and Terebridae Mörch, 1852. Regarding the Xenophoridae, Onustus aquitanus n. sp. is a new species, collected off the littoral of Espírito Santo and Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 430-637 m depth (continental slope). The main characters of the species include the small size (c. 20 mm), the proportionally wide shell, the white colour, the short peripheral flange, the oblique riblets weakly developed and a brown multispiral protoconch. This appears to be the smallest living species of the family, resembling in this aspect fossil species. In respect to the Cypraeoidea, the following results were obtained: family Cypraeidae Rafinesque, 1815: Erosaria acicularis (Gmelin, 1791) and Luria cinerea (Gmelin, 1791) had the deepest record, respectively 607-620 m and 295-940 m, although the samples were all dead, eroded shells. Family Lamellariidae d’Orbigny, 1841: a total of three lots were collected, provisionally identified as Lamellaria spp.

Conids are well known for being active predators on worms, fishes, and even other snails. Cones are venomous gastropods, meaning that they use a sophisticated cocktail of hundreds of toxins, named conotoxins, to subdue their prey. Although this venom has been studied for decades, most of the effort has been focused on Indo-Pacific species. Thus far, Atlantic species have received little attention despite recent radiations have led to a hotspot of diversity in West Africa, with high levels of endemic species. In fact, the Atlantic Chelyconus ermineus is thought to represent an adaptation to piscivory independent from the Indo-Pacific species and is, therefore, key to understanding the basis of this diet specialization. We studied the transcriptomes of the venom gland of three individuals of C. ermineus. The venom repertoire of this species included more than 300 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.

  • Comparative Analysis of Chromosome Counts Infers Three Paleopolyploidies in the Mollusca
    GBE Comparative Analysis of Chromosome Counts Infers Three Paleopolyploidies in the Mollusca Nathaniel M. Hallinan* and David R. Lindberg Department of Integrative Biology, University of California Berkeley *Corresponding author: E-mail: [email protected]. Accepted: 8 August 2011 Abstract The study of paleopolyploidies requires the comparison of multiple whole genome sequences. If the branches of a phylogeny on which a whole-genome duplication (WGD) occurred could be identified before genome sequencing, taxa could be selected that provided a better assessment of that genome duplication. Here, we describe a likelihood model in which the number of chromosomes in a genome evolves according to a Markov process with one rate of chromosome duplication and loss that is proportional to the number of chromosomes in the genome and another stochastic rate at which every chromosome in the genome could duplicate in a single event. We compare the maximum likelihoods of a model in which the genome duplication rate varies to one in which it is fixed at zero using the Akaike information criterion, to determine if a model with WGDs is a good fit for the data. Once it has been determined that the data does fit the WGD model, we infer the phylogenetic position of paleopolyploidies by calculating the posterior probability that a WGD occurred on each branch of the taxon tree. Here, we apply this model to a molluscan tree represented by 124 taxa and infer three putative WGD events. In the Gastropoda, we identify a single branch within the Hypsogastropoda and one of two branches at the base of the Stylommatophora.

  • Some Economically Important Bivalves and Gastropods Found in the Island of Hadji Panglima Tahil, in the Province of Sulu, Philippines
    International Research Journal of Biological Sciences ___________________________________ ISSN 2278-3202 Vol. 2(7), 30-36, July (2013) Int. Res. J. Biological Sci. Some Economically Important Bivalves and Gastropods found in the Island of Hadji Panglima Tahil, in the province of Sulu, Philippines Sharon Rose M. Tabugo 1, Jocelyn O. Pattuinan 1, Nathanie Joy J. Sespene 1 and Aldren J. Jamasali 2 1Department of Biological Sciences,College of Science and Mathematics, MSU-Iligan Institute of Technology, Iligan City 2Mindanao State University- Jolo, SULU Available online at: www.isca.in Received 17th April 2013, revised 26 th April 2013, accepted 4th May 2013 Abstract The Philippines is a haven of a rich diversity of marine organisms. Unraveling this diversity had posed a tremendous challenge. The existing security threat in some areas of the archipelago had led to a dearth of information with regard to the diversity of organisms especially the islands located in the province of Sulu. Marine mollusc studies are still among those that are overseen by many researchers. To date, there is still a lack of basic information such as diversity and species checklist that make it impossible to assess the rate of population lost among existing marine molluscs. There is no published information on the actual number of marine shelled molluscan species in the area. This work assessed, described and identified some economically important molluscs in the island of Hadji Panglima Tahil, in the province of Sulu, Philippines. There were a total of 18 molluscs (marine bivalves & gastropods) species found and identified in the island. The molluscs served as food, ornaments and as source of livelihood by residents in the area, which is separated by sea from Jolo, the capital municipality of the province.

  • Mollusca, Gastropoda
    Contr. Tert. Quatern. Geol. 32(4) 97-132 43 figs Leiden, December 1995 An outline of cassoidean phylogeny (Mollusca, Gastropoda) Frank Riedel Berlin, Germany Riedel, Frank. An outline of cassoidean phylogeny (Mollusca, Gastropoda). — Contr. Tert. Quatern. Geo!., 32(4): 97-132, 43 figs. Leiden, December 1995. The phylogeny of cassoidean gastropods is reviewed, incorporating most of the biological and palaeontological data from the literature. Several characters have been checked personally and some new data are presented and included in the cladistic analysis. The Laubierinioidea, Calyptraeoidea and Capuloidea are used as outgroups. Twenty-three apomorphies are discussed and used to define cassoid relations at the subfamily level. A classification is presented in which only three families are recognised. The Ranellidae contains the subfamilies Bursinae, Cymatiinae and Ranellinae. The Pisanianurinae is removed from the Ranellidae and attributed to the Laubierinioidea.The Cassidae include the Cassinae, Oocorythinae, Phaliinae and Tonninae. The Ranellinae and Oocorythinae are and considered the of their families. The third the both paraphyletic taxa are to represent stem-groups family, Personidae, cannot be subdivided and for anatomical evolved from Cretaceous into subfamilies reasons probably the same Early gastropod ancestor as the Ranellidae. have from Ranellidae the Late Cretaceous. The Cassidae (Oocorythinae) appears to branched off the (Ranellinae) during The first significant radiation of the Ranellidae/Cassidaebranch took place in the Eocene. The Tonninae represents the youngest branch of the phylogenetic tree. Key words — Neomesogastropoda, Cassoidea, ecology, morphology, fossil evidence, systematics. Dr F.
