  • "National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary."
    Intro 1996 National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands The Fish and Wildlife Service has prepared a National List of Vascular Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1996 National Summary (1996 National List). The 1996 National List is a draft revision of the National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands: 1988 National Summary (Reed 1988) (1988 National List). The 1996 National List is provided to encourage additional public review and comments on the draft regional wetland indicator assignments. The 1996 National List reflects a significant amount of new information that has become available since 1988 on the wetland affinity of vascular plants. This new information has resulted from the extensive use of the 1988 National List in the field by individuals involved in wetland and other resource inventories, wetland identification and delineation, and wetland research. Interim Regional Interagency Review Panel (Regional Panel) changes in indicator status as well as additions and deletions to the 1988 National List were documented in Regional supplements. The National List was originally developed as an appendix to the Classification of Wetlands and Deepwater Habitats of the United States (Cowardin et al.1979) to aid in the consistent application of this classification system for wetlands in the field.. The 1996 National List also was developed to aid in determining the presence of hydrophytic vegetation in the Clean Water Act Section 404 wetland regulatory program and in the implementation of the swampbuster provisions of the Food Security Act. While not required by law or regulation, the Fish and Wildlife Service is making the 1996 National List available for review and comment.

  • Taphonomic Signatures on Some Intertidal Molluscan Shells from Tarut Bay (Arabian Gulf, Saudi Arabia)
    Pakistan J. Zool., vol. 47(1), pp. 125-132, 2015. Taphonomic Signatures on Some Intertidal Molluscan Shells from Tarut Bay (Arabian Gulf, Saudi Arabia) Amel El Gendy,1 Saleh Al-Farraj2 and Magdy El-Hedeny3* 1Department of Zoology, Faculty of Science, Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt 2Department of Zoology, College of Science, King Saud University, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 3Vice Rectorate for Business Development, King Saud University P.O. Box 2454, Riyadh 11451, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Abstract.- The present contribution documented a molluscan assemblage (bivalves and gastropods) collected from the intertidal water of Tarut Bay, east coast of Saudi Arabia and assessed the degree of post-mortal alteration of the shell material. In this assemblage, bivalve shells were totally dominated by disarticulated valves and had significant taphonomic alteration in their shells. Four principal taphonomic attributes were analysed: encrustation, bioerosion, fragmentation and abrasion. Three types of encrusters were recorded on shells of the present study: balanoids, polychaetes and bivalves (Spondylus and oysters). Amongst, balanoid barnacles represented the most common encrusters that were recorded in both gastropod and bivalve shells. It was observed that each encruster attached on the host as a single epibiont and no share with other epibionts on the same host. Bioerosion traces in shells were predominately those of clionid sponges and gastropods. They were represented by the ichnogenera Entobia and Oichnus. The presence of drill holes assigned to the ichnospecies Oichnus simplex Bromley, 1981 were made by muricid gastropods which are common in the study area. Fragmentation was mainly resulted from biological processes (bird predation) on the brittle-shelled bivalve species Vepricardium asiaticum.

  • (Gastropoda: Hydrobiidae): a Morphostatic Radiation of Freshwater Gastropods in Southeastern Australia
    © Copyright Australian Museum, 2003 Records of the Australian Museum, Supplement 28 (2003): 1–109 ISBN 0-7347-2313-X Revision of the Snail Genus Austropyrgus (Gastropoda: Hydrobiidae): A Morphostatic Radiation of Freshwater Gastropods in Southeastern Australia STEPHANIE A. CLARK1, ALISON C. MILLER AND WINSTON F. PONDER Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney NSW 2010, Australia 1 current address: Department of Biological Sciences, Biodiversity & Systematics, University of Alabama, Box 870345, Tuscaloosa, AL 35487, Unites States of America [email protected] · [email protected] · [email protected] ABSTRACT. The species that comprise a morphostatic radiation in southeastern Australia of the hydrobiid genus Austropyrgus Cotton are described using shell, opercular, anatomical and radular characters, and the genus is redefined. The previously described taxa have been included under several generic names, including Fluvidona (now a separate genus), Rivisessor, Pupiphryx and Angrobia, which are now treated as synonyms of Austropyrgus. Seventy-four species are described from southeastern Australia, fifty- seven of them new. These are grouped into six informal morphological groups to aid identification. Two recently described outlying species, A. bunyaensis from Mt Bunya, southern Queensland and A. centralia from Dalhousie Springs, northern South Australia, are not included in this revision. Members of the genus are typically found in streams, although a few species live in springs, rivers or lakes. A large number of the species have restricted distributions and several are known only from single locations. In southern New South Wales, Victoria and South Australia Austropyrgus is the dominant native freshwater hydrobiid genus whereas in Tasmania it is often sympatric with the native freshwater hydrobiid genera Beddomeia and/or Phrantela.

Picardal Palawan, Philippines College of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, Western Philippines University Rafael M. Picardal and Roger G. Dolorosa Roger G. Dolorosa Abstract College of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, Western Philippines With the rising pressure of urbanization to biodiversity, this study aimed to obtain baseline information University on species richness of gastropods and bivalves in two protected bays (Turtle and Binunsalian) in Puerto Princesa City, Philippines before the establishment of the proposed mega resort facilities. A total of 108 species were recorded, (19 bivalves and 89 gastropods). The list includes two rare miters, seven recently described species and first record of Timoclea imbricata (Veneridae) in Palawan. Threatened species were not encountered during the survey suggesting that both bays had been overfished. Turtle Bay had very low visibility, low coral cover, substantial signs of ecosystem disturbances and shift from coral to algal communities. Although Binunsalian Bay had clearer waters and relatively high coral cover, associated fish and macrobenthic invertebrates were of low or no commercial values. Upon the establishment and operations of the resort facilities, follow-up species inventories and habitat assessment are suggested to evaluate the importance of private resorts in biodiversity restoration. Keywords: Binunsalian Bay, bivalves, gastropods, Palawan, species inventory, Turtle Bay 1. Introduction Gastropods and bivalves are among the most fascinating groups of molluscs that for centuries have attracted hobbyists, businessmen, ecologists and scientists among others from around the globe.

  • Hydrobiidae Descriptions
    An Ecological, Morphological and Molecular Investigation of Beddomeia Species (Gastropoda: Hydrobiidae) in Tasmania Karen Richards BScEd, Melbourne College of Advanced Education BAppSc (Hons), Deakin University A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Tasmania September 2010 ii Declaration This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma by the University or any other institution. To the best of my knowledge the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person except where acknowledgement is made in the text. Karen Richards Date Statement of Authority of Access This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying is permitted in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Karen Richards Date iii iv Abstract Narrow-range endemic species are thought to have naturally small distributions, limited by size, mobility, dispersal capabilities, specific habitat requirements and biogeographical boundaries. Many narrow range taxa are poorly reserved and most threatened freshwater invertebrate taxa in Tasmania, including the majority of Beddomeia species, fall into this category. Management of such taxa is reliant on informed ecological data which is not currently available for many freshwater invertebrates. To address the need for more detailed information on one such group of aquatic invertebrates, this study obtained spatial and ecological data for a number of Beddomeia species and identified habitat variables that together explained the snail distributions. A combination of geology, catchment size, forest type, flow and disturbance were identified as significant explanatory variables of Beddomeia presence within a river catchment.

  • The Gastropod Fauna Along the Bushehr Province Intertidal Zone of the Persian Gulf
    Journal of the Persian Gulf (Marine Science)/Vol. 3/No. 9/September 2012/10/33-42 The Gastropod Fauna along the Bushehr Province Intertidal Zone of the Persian Gulf Kohan, Ahmadreza*; Badbardast, Zahra; Shokri, Mohammadreza Faculty of Biological Science, Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, IR Iran Received: April 2012 Accepted: July 2012 © 2012 Journal of the Persian Gulf. All rights reserved. Abstract The gastropod fauna of Bushehr Province intertidal zone at the Persian Gulf were identified following an investigation starting spring 2009 until winter 2011. Bushehr coastline is a 673.62 km stretch along the northern and northeastern coast of the Persian Gulf. Sampling took place from Deylam at Bushehr-Khuzestan borderlines, extending southeastward through Genaveh, Bushehr, Bolkheyr, Kabgan, Dayer and Nayband at Bushehr-Hormozgan provincial borderlines. A total of 87 gastropod species from 54 families were identified. The most frequent family with 7 spp. was Trochidae, followed by Strombidae (4 spp.), Pyramidellidae, Potamididae, Olividae and Epitoniidae (3 spp. each).The most frequent species was Planaxis sulcatus observed in all 7 stations, followed by Turitella fultoni, Thais mutabilis and Thais savignyi occurring in 6 stations. The Jaccard Similarity measure showed the highest similarity for Genaveh and Bushehr (0.818) and the lowest similarity for Genaveh and Deylam (0.152).This study provided the first comprehensive list of Gastropoda species occurring in Bushehr Province intertidal zones yet. Keywords: Gastropoda fauna, Intertidal zone, Distribution, Bushehr, Persian Gulf 1. Introduction habitats ranging from the deepest ocean basins to the supra-littoral. The class Gastropoda, large taxonomic class Marine gastropod species of the Persian Gulf are within the phylum Mollusca, consists of snails and highly varied and abundant forming an important slugs (Bouchet et al., 2005).

  • Marsupial' Freshwater
    Zoosyst. Evol. 85 (2) 2009, 199–275 / DOI 10.1002/zoos.200900004 Diversity and disparity ‘down under’: Systematics, biogeography and reproductive modes of the ‘marsupial’ freshwater Thiaridae (Caenogastropoda, Cerithioidea) in Australia Matthias Glaubrecht*,1, Nora Brinkmann2 and Judith Pppe1 1 Museum fr Naturkunde Berlin, Department of Malacozoology, Invalidenstraße 43, 10115 Berlin, Germany 2 University of Copenhagen, Institute of Biology, Research Group for Comparative Zoology, Universitetsparken 15, 2100 Copenhagen, Denmark Abstract Received 11 May 2009 We systematically revise here the Australian taxa of the Thiaridae, a group of freshwater Accepted 15 June 2009 Cerithioidea with pantropical distribution and “marsupial” (i.e. viviparous) reproductive Published 24 September 2009 modes. On this long isolated continent, the naming of several monotypic genera and a plethora of species have clouded both the phylogenetical and biogeographical relation- ships with other thiarids, in particular in Southeast Asia, thus hampering insight into the evolution of Australian taxa and their natural history. Based on own collections during five expeditions to various regions in Australia between 2002 and 2007, the study of rele- vant type material and the comparison with (mostly shell) material from major Australian museum collections, we describe and document here the morphology (of adults and juve- niles) and radulae of all relevant thiarid taxa, discussing the taxonomical implications and nomenclatural consequences. Presenting comprehensive compilations of the occurrences for all Australian thiarid species, we document their geographical distribution (based on over 900 records) with references ranging from continent-wide to drainage-based pat- terns. We morphologically identify a total of eleven distinct species (also corroborated as distinct clades by molecular genetic data, to be reported elsewhere), of which six species are endemic to Australia, viz.
