Tertiary and Quaternary Fossil Pyramidelloidean Gastropods of Indonesia
Tertiary and Quaternary fossil pyramidelloidean gastropods of Indonesia E. Robba Robba, E. 2013. Tertiary and Quaternary fossil pyramidelloidean gastropods of Indonesia. Scripta Geo- logica, 144: 1-191, 1 appendix, 1 table, 25 plates. Leiden, April 2013. E. Robba, Università di Milano Bicocca, Dipartimento di Scienze Geologiche e Geotecnologie, Piazza della Scienza 4, 20126 Milano, Italy ([email protected]). Key words – Gastropoda, Pyramidelloidea, taxonomy. The pyramidelloidean gastropods newly collected from one stratigraphic section and two spot localities in the Rembang anticlinorium (Middle Miocene, northeastern Java) are described and those of various ages in the collections of the Naturalis Biodiversity Center in Leiden are reviewed. A total of 111 species are covered in this paper; another 22 taxa dealt with by previous authors, of which the material was not available, are briefly commented on in an appendix. The “Rembangian” (Middle Miocene) assemblage consists of 89 spe- cies. Four are identified as formerly described species, namelyLeucotina speciosa (Adams), Megastomia regina (Thiele), Exesilla dextra (Saurin) and Exesilla splendida (Martin); 52 are proposed as new; most of the others almost certainly represent previously undescribed species, but cannot be named because of inadequate ma- terial. Parodostomia jogjacartensis (Martin), Parodostomia vandijki (Martin) and Pyramidella nanggulanica Finlay, described from the Eocene deposits of Java, seem to be restricted to that epoch. The Neogene fauna appears to be composed almost entirely of extinct species. Only Leucotina speciosa (Adams), Megastomia regina (Thiele), Longchaeus turritus (Adams), Pyramidella balteata (Adams), Exesilla dextra (Saurin) and Nisiturris alma (Thiele) are still present in modern Indo-West Pacific faunas. Most Neogene species seem to be endemic of the Indonesian Archipelago; relationships with other West Pacific fossil faunas have been noted for only a few taxa.

Aceptado el 12-III-2012 ABSTRACT The finding of some specimens of a small pyramidellid along the Mediterranean coasts of Turkey, Israel and Cyprus, previously reported off the south-eastern coast of Turkey (Buzzu- rro & Greppi, 1996; Buzzurro et al., 2001) as Hinemoa cylindrica (de Folin, 1879), indu- ced us to revise this identification. Hinemoa cylindrica is of Indo-Pacific origin and has been originally attributed to the genus Jaminea Brown, 1827 (not Risso, 1826). Later, it has been transferred to the genus Hinemoa Oliver, 1915 (Buzzurro et al., 2001). Howe- ver, some details of its morphology do not agree with the description and figure of Jami- nea cylindrica given by de Folin (1879). For a more suitable generic placement, we com- pared the species to the members of some closely resembling taxa in Pyramidellidae Gray, 1840 (e.g., Cingulina, A.Adams, 1860, Hinemoa Oliver, 1915, Miralda A. Adams, 1864, Odetta de Folin, 1870 and Oscilla Adams A., 1861). Its morphological characte- ristics have led us to assign it to the genus Oscilla as a new species.

The material was collected in the Turkish Levantine and Aegean Seas, and the Sea of Marmara at depths varying from 0.5 to 1302 m between the years 1996 and 2012. The examination of the collected material revealed four species of Anisocycla (A. gradata, A. nitidissima, A. pointeli and A. striatula), five species of Eulimella (E. acicula, E. neoattenuata, E. scillae, E. ventricosa and E. unifasciata), one species of Puposyrnola (P. minuta), two species of Syrnola (S. fasciata and S. lendix) and twelve species of Turbonilla (T. acuta, T. acutissima, T. hamata, T. jeffreysi, T. lactea, T. micans, T. paucistriata, T. pseudogradata, T.pumila, T. pusilla, T. rufa and T. striatula).

Exotic Molluscs in the Mediterranean Basin: Current Status and Perspectives
Oceanography and Marine Biology: an Annual Review 2003, 41, 237–277 © R.N. Gibson and R.J.A. Atkinson, Editors Taylor & Francis EXOTIC MOLLUSCS IN THE MEDITERRANEAN BASIN: CURRENT STATUS AND PERSPECTIVES SERGE GOFAS1 & ARGYRO ZENETOS2 1Departamento de Biologia animal, Facultad de Ciencias – E-29071 Málaga, Spain e-mail: [email protected] 2National Centre for Marine Research, P.O. Box 712, Mavro Lithari, GR-19013 Anavissos, Greece e-mail: [email protected] Abstract An updated synthesis is presented for the records of introduced Mollusca in the Mediterranean basin. The rationale for taking molluscan records as signiﬁcant is discussed. The Mediterranean Sea, with some 1800 native species of Mollusca, currently houses 139 exotic species, of which 85 form established populations, 52 are aliens recorded once or twice, and two are questionable. Ten species (the gastropods Cerithium scabridum, Rhinoclavis kochi, Strom- bus persicus and Bursatella leachi and the bivalves Pinctada radiata and Brachidontes pharao- nis in the eastern Mediterranean, the gastropod Rapana venosa and the bivalves Anadara inaequivalvis, Musculista senhousia, and Xenostrobus securis in the northern Adriatic and the western Mediterranean lagoons) are locally invasive. The bulk of the introduced species (118 species, of which 70 are established, 46 aliens, and two questionable) are species of Indo–Paciﬁc origin found mainly in the eastern basin of the Mediterranean. Among these species, some which live in the Suez Canal are most likely to have spread by their own means through this waterway (these are the “lessepsian immigrants” in the most restricted sense). For other species, the intervention of transport by ship hulls or ballast water can be suspected.
