Research Article ECOLOGICAL STATUS OF PIRENELLA CINGULATA (GMELIN, 1791) (GASTROPOD: POTAMIDIDAE) IN MANGROVE HABITAT OF GHOGHA COAST, GULF OF KHAMBHAT, INDIA Devendra Solanki, Jignesh Kanejiya and *Bharatsinh Gohil Department of Life Sciences, Maharaja Krishnakumarsinhji Bhavnagar University, Bhavnagar 364 002 * Author for Correspondence ABSTRACT Studies on mangrove associated organisms were one of the old trends to studying mangrove ecosystems and their productivities. Seasonal status and movement of Pirenella cingulata according to habitat change studied from mangroves of Ghogha coast from December 2014 to November 2015. The maximum density (4.4/m2 area) of Pirenella cingulata reported during winter and lowest during monsoon (0.20/ m2 area). This mud snail was observed dependent on the mangrove during adverse climatic conditions during summer and monsoon seasons. Temperature and dissolved oxygen levels influence the density of P. cingulata. Keywords: Pirenella cingulata, Mangroves, Seasonal Conditions, Ghogha Coast INTRODUCTION Indo-West Pacific oceans are popular for the molluscan diversity, but despite more than two centuries of malacology, the basic knowledge about mangrove associated biota is still inadequate (Kiat, 2009). The mangroves are not only trees but itself an ecosystem comprises associated fauna, the biotope surrounded by the trees extensions like soil, stem, substrate, shade, tidal range etc., and are influential to the distribution of malacofauna (Lozouet and Plaziat, 2008). Indian coastline comprises three gulfs, namely Gulf of Kachchh and Gulf of Khambhat in west site while Gulf of Mannar in southeast side.

  • Avicennia Marina Mangrove Forest
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published June 6 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Resource competition between macrobenthic epifauna and infauna in a Kenyan Avicennia marina mangrove forest J. Schrijvers*,H. Fermon, M. Vincx University of Gent, Department of Morphology, Systematics and Ecology, Marine Biology Section, K.L. Ledeganckstraat 35, B-9000 Gent, Belgium ABSTRACT: A cage exclusion experiment was used to examine the interaction between the eplbenthos (permanent and vls~tlng)and the macroinfauna of a high intertidal Kenyan Avicennia marina man- grove sediment. Densities of Ollgochaeta (families Tubificidae and Enchytraeidae), Amphipoda, Insecta larvae, Polychaeta and macro-Nematoda, and a broad range of environmental factors were fol- lowed over 5 mo of caging. A significant increase of amphipod and insect larvae densities in the cages indicated a positive exclusion effect, while no such effect was observed for oligochaetes (Tubificidae in particular), polychaetes or macronematodes. Resource competitive interactions were a plausible expla- nation for the status of the amphipod community. This was supported by the parallel positive exclusion effect detected for microalgal densities. It is therelore hypothesized that competition for microalgae and deposited food sources is the determining structuring force exerted by the epibenthos on the macrobenthic infauna. However, the presence of epibenthic predation cannot be excluded. KEY WORDS: Macrobenthos . Infauna . Epibenthos - Exclusion experiment . Mangroves . Kenya INTRODUCTION tioned that these areas are intensively used by epiben- thic animals as feeding grounds, nursery areas and Exclusion experiments are a valuable tool for detect- shelters (Hutchings & Saenger 1987).In order to assess ing the influence of epibenthic animals on endobenthic the importance of the endobenthic community under communities.

R. China 2Institute of Ecology, Zhejiang Normal University, Yingbin Avenue 688, Jinhua, Zhejiang 321004, P. R. China Abstract.- The effect of saltmarsh cordgrass, Spartina alterniflora (Poales: Poaceae) invasion stage on Cerithidea cingulata (Caenogastropoda: Potamididae) distribution was studied in 2007 at the eastern tidal flat of Lingkun Island, Wenzhou Bay, China. The distribution pattern of C. cingulata was aggregated during each season, as shown in experiments utilizing Taylor's power regression and Iowa's patchiness regression methods (P < 0.001). Two- way ANOVA indicated that densities were significantly affected by S. alterniflora invasion stage (P < 0.001), however, no significant season effect was found (P = 0.090) and on the interaction between the seasons (P = 0.939). The density distribution during the invasion stage was significantly different in each season as shown in one-way ANOVA. Pearson’s correlation coefficient analysis of density data indicated that the highest densities occurred in habitats at the initial invasion stage during summer. The peak in C. cingulata density during spring, autumn and winter occurred in habitats where invasion was classified as initial, whereas the lowest densities occurred in the stage of invasion completed during each season.
