MALACOLOGICAL SOCIETY of AUSTRALASIA VICTORIAN BRANCH INDEX to BRANCH BULLETINS Nos. 1 to 276 Following Alan Monger's Lead In 1 MALACOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF AUSTRALASIA VICTORIAN BRANCH INDEX TO BRANCH BULLETINS Nos. 1 to 276 Following Alan Monger’s lead in 1975, bulletins to the end of 2014 are now incorporated. We repeat Alan's hopes that "current members will be inspired to produce notes or jottings for future editions". First Bulletin date was 19 Aug., 1968. As previously, repetitive Branch notices, annual elections and other procedural matters, library notices, requests for exchanges, dive notes, monthly meeting reports, (these two latter are in most issues and are good reading) collections for sale and names of visitors are excluded. Financial statements, Presidents' reports and lists of office-bearers appear each year in early issues. Names of office-bearers and dates are at least approximately correct: Branch Chairman: 1969-1975 Robert Burn 1976-1978 Brian Smith 1979-1983 Don Cram 1984 - 1986 Ray Macpherson 1987-1990 Jack Austin 1981-1996 Fred Bunyard 1997 Jack Austin 1998—2011 Fred Bunyard (Michael Lyons has acted as Chairman from 2012) Sec/Treasurer: 1969-1972 Fay Murray 1973 - 1975 Robert Haynes 1976- 2005 Edna Tenner 2005--2014 Michael Lyons Bulletin Editor: Jean Dyke, Barbara Neilsen, Ken Bell, Robyn Willington, Don and Val Cram Librarian: Barbara Neilsen, Alena Glaister, Norm Cryer, Alena Bubinicek, Simon Wilson. Club Tutor: Rob Burn is our one and only, since 1987. The references shown are Bulletin No. and page then author of the article. A complete set is on-line and may be downloaded.

    PRO NATURA NOVARA ONLUS GRUPPO MALACOLOGICO NOVARESE (Gianfranco Vischi) ([email protected]) n. 23 agosto 2015 La UMBILIA Armeniaca di R. Paolo Cesana Nella vasta famiglia delle Cypree, spiccano tra le ''medio-grandi'' forme australiane, quelle appartenenti alla ''tribù'' delle umbiliinae; consideriamo quindi il genere Umbilia armeniaca con le sue forme e/o sottospeci. La Umbilia armeniaca armeniaca (Verco, J. C. 1912) è la specie base, che vive sui fondali molli, in prevalenza tra le alghe, in acque profonde, sempre al di sotto dei 25 m. E' specie del sud e sud-vest dell'Australia, che va da Perth ad Adelaide. L'animale ha, sembra, una dieta mista, un po’ detritivora (detriti e residui) e un po’ spongivora. La sua conchiglia è simile a quella della sua cugina hesitata, ma più enflata e leggera, con la parte anteriore meno ''affusolata''. La fossula è più marcata, poco depressa; la dentatura è poco evidente e assente verso la estremità posteriore sul lato columellare, ben marcata invece nella parte anteriore; l'apertura è molto curvata verso l'estremità posteriore. La colorazione varia dal raro bianco al rosa salmone (tipico) con lievi maculature dorsali e sui lati, la base è sul beige-rosato o aranciato con un'rea più colorata dal lato columellare. La conchiglia ha una misura che varia tra i 65 e i 120 mm. circa. Passiamo ora alle poche sottospeci o ''forme'' che per le lievi differenze che si possono riscontrare fra loro, farò una breve carrellata di esse; - la Umbilia armeniaca westralica (Raibaudi Massilia, 1980) globosa, ha forma e caratteristica simile alle altre armeniache, la colorazione lucida varia dal bianco-giallastro al salmone rosato, al bruno, con sparse maculazioni varie sul dorso e i lati; come dice il suo nome, vive a sud ovest dell'Australia, la conchiglia è lunga circa 70 - 100 mm.

  • Mass Spectrometry Imaging Reveals New Biological Roles for Choline
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Mass spectrometry imaging reveals new biological roles for choline esters and Tyrian purple precursors Received: 17 March 2015 Accepted: 27 July 2015 in muricid molluscs Published: 01 September 2015 David Rudd1, Maurizio Ronci2,3, Martin R. Johnston4, Taryn Guinan2, Nicolas H. Voelcker2 & Kirsten Benkendorff5 Despite significant advances in chemical ecology, the biodistribution, temporal changes and ecological function of most marine secondary metabolites remain unknown. One such example is the association between choline esters and Tyrian purple precursors in muricid molluscs. Mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) on nano-structured surfaces has emerged as a sophisticated platform for spatial analysis of low molecular mass metabolites in heterogeneous tissues, ideal for low abundant secondary metabolites. Here we applied desorption-ionisation on porous silicon (DIOS) to examine in situ changes in biodistribution over the reproductive cycle. DIOS-MSI showed muscle-relaxing choline ester murexine to co-localise with tyrindoxyl sulfate in the biosynthetic hypobranchial glands. But during egg-laying, murexine was transferred to the capsule gland, and then to the egg capsules, where chemical ripening resulted in Tyrian purple formation. Murexine was found to tranquilise the larvae and may relax the reproductive tract. This study shows that DIOS-MSI is a powerful tool that can provide new insights into marine chemo-ecology. Secondary metabolites are known to chemically mediate intra- and interspecies interactions between organisms1. In molluscs, secondary metabolites have been detected and identified during mate attraction2, defence3,4, predatory behaviour5, anti-fouling6,7 and reproduction8. The importance of understanding the mechanisms behind these chemical interactions within a species cannot be underestimated, particularly when specific secondary metabolites impart a competitive advantage.

  • 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.

Moltschaniwskyj2 1Institute of Antarctic and Southern Ocean Studies, University of Tasmania, PO Box 252-77, Hobart, Tasmania 7001, Australia 2School of Aquaculture, Tasmanian Aquaculture and Fisheries Institute, University of Tasmania, Locked Bag 1-370, Launceston, Tasmania, 7250, Australia ABSTRACT: Seasonal growth rates and size- and age-at-maturity were analysed for the small near- shore tropical loliginid squid Loliolus noctiluca off North Queensland, Australia, over a period of 2 yr. Age of individuals was determined using daily statolith increments. The life cycle of L. noctiluca off North Queensland was just over 4 mo. Analysis of growth found that growth was non-asymptotic, and the form of the curve; exponential, linear or log-linear, depended on sex and season that individuals were caught. Winter-caught individuals were the fastest growing and achieved the largest size com- pared with summer or autumn-caught individuals. Furthermore, females grew faster than males dur- ing the winter. The patterns of growth of L. noctiluca were compared between tropical North Queensland and temperate New South Wales. The temperate individuals lived longer and had slower growth rates. There was also a marked seasonal influence on the onset of sexual maturity among the North Queensland population, with the fastest growing winter-caught individuals matur- ing later than the autumn or summer individuals. L. noctiluca has a large latitudinal range from New Guinea to Tasmania, this study, and published work, suggests a trend towards increased lifespan and decreased growth rate with increasing latitude.

CORNISH. 1897. INTRODUCTION. During the past few years large collections of the shells of Lifu and Uvea have been made by the Rev. James and Mrs. Hadfield, and have been consigned to several Manchester conchologists. By the kindness of Messrs. R. 1 ). Darbishire, R. Cairns, and W. Moss, a very complete series of these shells has been presented to the Manchester Museum, which possesses in addition the types of the majority of the new species here described, though a few remain in Mr. Melvill's cabinet. They have been arranged for exhibition, and a list of them, with notes and descriptions of new species, was drawn up by Mr. J. Cosmo Melvill (a member of the Committee of the Manchester Museum), and Mr. R. Standen (of the Museum staff). As the collection is one of the largest and most important that has been received in this country from the Loyalty Islands, it has been thought desirable to afford the naturalists of Manchester and elsewhere an opportunity of obtaining separate copies of this catalogue, and it has therefore been reprinted from 'The Journal of Conchologv' and issued as one of the Museum Handbooks.

VERMEIJ A B The limpet form in gastropods: evolution, distribution, and implications for the comparative study of history GEERAT J. VERMEIJ* Department of Earth and Planetary Science, University of California, Davis, Davis, CA,USA C D Received 19 April 2015; revised 30 June 2016; accepted for publication 30 June 2016 The limpet form – a cap-shaped or slipper-shaped univalved shell – convergently evolved in many gastropod lineages, but questions remain about when, how often, and under which circumstances it originated. Except for some predation-resistant limpets in shallow-water marine environments, limpets are not well adapted to intense competition and predation, leading to the prediction that they originated in refugial habitats where exposure to predators and competitors is low. A survey of fossil and living limpets indicates that the limpet form evolved independently in at least 54 lineages, with particularly frequent origins in early-diverging gastropod clades, as well as in Neritimorpha and Heterobranchia. There are at least 14 origins in freshwater and 10 in the deep sea, E F with known times ranging from the Cambrian to the Neogene.
