Atlantic Shell Collection ATLANTIC SHELL COLLECTION Collect a specimen of the following organisms and label each with a spot carrying the respective number of the organism. Spots may be painted on with enamel or glued on with Avery "Spots: and covered with clear nail polish. Look up the scientific name of each and write it in its proper form after the common name. List the phylum and class of each organism and the habitat from which it comes. DO NOT KILL ANY ORGANISM TO COMPLETE THIS EXERCISE! Wash each shell at the main dock and dry before applying your numbered adhesive Avery spot. DO NOT MARK OR DEFACE ANY BOOK TO COMPLETE THIS EXERCISE! Scientific names consist of two parts, hence they are binomial. The example we will use here is the name of humans. The first part is the name [Homo] of the genus in which the organism is classified and the second part of the binomen is called the trivial name [sapiens]. The two names together constitute the name of a species, called a specific name [Homo sapiens]. The genus name is always capitalized. The trivial name should not appear without the genus name [although H. sapiens can be used after the initial citation of Homo sapiens in a text]. The trivial name is never capitalized, even if derived from a proper name. Both are always italicized or underlined to set them apart in other text. Usage dictates that the person who named a species and the date of publication is also written with the binomen [Homo sapiens Linneaus 1758]. This provides a bibliographic trail to search out the original reference. Names may be found in text and reference books or on the Internet. Complete this exercise on the computer as a spreadsheet in Excel and list your photograph number, too. Common Name Scientific Name Phylum Class Habitat 1. Coquina Shells 2. Angel Wings 3.

FISHER* AND DAVID B. RUDDERS Virginia Institute of Marine Science, College of William and Mary, PO Box 1346, Gloucester Point, VA 23062 ABSTRACT Channeled whelks, Busycotypus canaliculatus, support commercial fisheries throughout their range along the US Atlantic seaboard. Given the modest amounts of published information available on channeled whelk, this study focuses on understanding the temporal and spatial variations in growth and reproductive biology in the Mid-Atlantic region. Channeled whelks were sampled from three inshore commercially harvested resource areas in the US Mid-Atlantic: Ocean City, MD (OC); Eastern Shore of Virginia (ES); and Virginia Beach, VA (VB). The largest whelk measured 230-mm shell length (SL) and was recorded from OC.

Signed: Date: 12/09/2014 i Determination of the Abundance and Population Structure of Buccinum undatum in North Wales Zara Turtle Abstract A mark-recapture study and fisheries data analysis for the common whelk, Buccinum undatum, was undertaken for catches on a commercial fishing vessel operating from The fishing location, north Wales, from June-July 2014. Laboratory experiments were conducted on B.undatum to investigate tag retention rates and behavioural responses after being exposed to a number of treatments. Thick rubber bands were found to have a 100 % tag retention rate after four months. Riddling, tagging and air exposure do not affect the behavioural responses of B.undatum. The mark-recapture study was used to estimate population size and movement. 4007 whelks were tagged with thick rubber bands over three tagging events.

  • Os Nomes Galegos Dos Moluscos
    A Chave Os nomes galegos dos moluscos 2017 Citación recomendada / Recommended citation: A Chave (2017): Nomes galegos dos moluscos recomendados pola Chave. http://www.achave.gal/wp-content/uploads/achave_osnomesgalegosdos_moluscos.pdf 1 Notas introdutorias O que contén este documento Neste documento fornécense denominacións para as especies de moluscos galegos (e) ou europeos, e tamén para algunhas das especies exóticas máis coñecidas (xeralmente no ámbito divulgativo, por causa do seu interese científico ou económico, ou por seren moi comúns noutras áreas xeográficas). En total, achéganse nomes galegos para 534 especies de moluscos. A estrutura En primeiro lugar preséntase unha clasificación taxonómica que considera as clases, ordes, superfamilias e familias de moluscos. Aquí apúntase, de maneira xeral, os nomes dos moluscos que hai en cada familia. A seguir vén o corpo do documento, onde se indica, especie por especie, alén do nome científico, os nomes galegos e ingleses de cada molusco (nalgún caso, tamén, o nome xenérico para un grupo deles). Ao final inclúese unha listaxe de referencias bibliográficas que foron utilizadas para a elaboración do presente documento. Nalgunhas desas referencias recolléronse ou propuxéronse nomes galegos para os moluscos, quer xenéricos quer específicos. Outras referencias achegan nomes para os moluscos noutras linguas, que tamén foron tidos en conta. Alén diso, inclúense algunhas fontes básicas a respecto da metodoloxía e dos criterios terminolóxicos empregados. 2 Tratamento terminolóxico De modo moi resumido, traballouse nas seguintes liñas e cos seguintes criterios: En primeiro lugar, aprofundouse no acervo lingüístico galego. A respecto dos nomes dos moluscos, a lingua galega é riquísima e dispomos dunha chea de nomes, tanto específicos (que designan un único animal) como xenéricos (que designan varios animais parecidos).

    Common Life in the Marine Biome Instructions: Scientists use dichotomous keys to organize and identify specimens. Dichotomous means dividing into two parts – a dichotomous key provides two choices in each step. For example: to divide a package of multi-coloured pens into two groups, you might decide to divide the pens by “has blue ink” and “does not have blue ink”. Work together at each station and use the available tools and key information to identify the different specimens. Record your answers on your results page. Station 1 – Echinoderms 1. a. Specimen has arms…………………………………………………………………….………..go to 2 b. Specimen does not have arms………………………………………………..………….go to 4 2. a. Specimen usually has 5 arms………………………..……………………………..…...go to 3 b. Specimen usually has more than 5 arms (when intact)………………………………………………………………………………………Common sun star 3. a. Specimen has a central, armoured disc with long, thin arms…………………………………………………………………………………………...Daisy brittle star b. Specimen does not armoured disc, and has large, thicker arms………………………………………………………………………………………………………….Sea star There are different species of sea star in Nova Scotian waters. Often, the easiest identification relates to colour. For example, the northern sea star and Forbes’ sea star can both have colorful bodies (purple, tan, red, etc.), however the northern sea star has a pale yellow madreporite and the Forbes’ sea star has a bright orange madreporite. 4. a. Specimen is round and flat with short, fuzz-like spines (live) or smooth without spines (dead)…..………………………………………………………………....Sand dollar b. Specimen has a dome shape with long, thicker spines (live) or lacks spines (dead).…………………………………………………………………………..Green sea urchin Common Life in the Marine Biome Page 2 of 4 Station 2 – Gastropods 1.

Although their roots trace back to over 500 million years ago, there are currently over 9,000 species of bivalves, with many of them edible. These filter feeders have evolved to include a hard and heavy hinged shell to protect them from predators and other elements. This armor makes them slow-moving and, unfortunately for them, easy to catch. In the case of venus clams, la-la, and cockles, bivalves can be cheap and plentiful. But in the case of oysters, scallops, and abalone, bivalves can be among the most luxurious and expensive foods. These interesting animals can be found in virtually every body of water (such as salty oceans, brackish lakes, and freshwater canals); can be farmed or wild caught; can be eaten raw or cooked; and can be found all over the world.
