MoUusca, Polyplacophora, taxon list, bibliography ABSTRACT. This paper lists species-group names of Récent and fossil Polyplacophora (MoUusca) that were published after 1998 (for the Récent species) and 1987 (for the fossil species). A total of 171 species were since then introduced, of which 123 are attributed to valid fossil taxa and 48 to valid Récent taxa. The authorship and complète références are provided for each species-group name. INTRODUCTION Considerazioni suUa famiglia Leptochitonidae Dali, 1889 (MoUusca: Polyplacophora). III.

S.: Morphology and systematic position of Tryblidium Canadense Whiteaves, 1884 (Mollusca) from the Silurian of North America. Bull. geol. Soc. Denmark, vol. 38, pp. 43-51. Copenhagen, April 25th, 1990. https://doi.org/10.37570/bgsd-1990-38-04 The nomenclative history of Tryblidium canadense Whiteaves, 1884, a large, oval, univalved mollusc originally described from the Silurian Guelph Formation of Ontario, is reviewed. Following comparison to Archinace/la Ulrich & Scofield, 1897, in which genus it has generally been placed for almost a century, Whiteaves' species is redescribed and assigned to a new gastropod genus, Guelphinace/la.

Shell Microstructures in Early Cambrian Molluscs
Shell microstructures in Early Cambrian molluscs ARTEM KOUCHINSKY Kouchinsky, A. 2000. Shell microstructures in Early Cambrian molluscs. - Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 45,2, 119-150. The affinities of a considerable part of the earliest skeletal fossils are problematical, but investigation of their microstructures may be useful for understanding biomineralization mechanisms in early metazoans and helpful for their taxonomy. The skeletons of Early Cambrian mollusc-like organisms increased by marginal secretion of new growth lamel- lae or sclerites, the recognized basal elements of which were fibers of apparently aragon- ite. The juvenile part of some composite shells consisted of needle-like sclerites; the adult part was built of hollow leaf-like sclerites. A layer of mineralized prism-like units (low aragonitic prisms or flattened spherulites) surrounded by an organic matrix possibly existed in most of the shells with continuous walls. The distribution of initial points of the prism-like units on a periostracurn-like sheet and their growth rate were mostly regular. The units may be replicated on the surface of internal molds as shallow concave poly- gons, which may contain a more or less well-expressed tubercle in their center. Tubercles are often not enclosed in concave polygons and may co-occur with other types of tex- tures. Convex polygons seem to have resulted from decalcification of prism-like units. They do not co-occur with tubercles. The latter are interpreted as casts of pore channels in the wall possibly playing a role in biomineralization or pits serving as attachment sites of groups of mantle cells. Casts of fibers and/or lamellar units may overlap a polygonal tex- ture or occur without it. -

STEBBINS 1,* and DOUGLAS J. EERNISSE 2 1 City of San Diego Marine Biology Laboratory, Metropolitan Wastewater Department, San Diego, CA, USA 2 Department of Biological Science, California State University, Fullerton, CA, USA Abstract: About 36 species of chitons possibly occur at depths greater than 30 m along the continental shelf and slope of the Southern California Bight (SCB), although little is known about their distribution or ecology. Nineteen species are reported here based on chitons collected as part of long-term, local benthic monitoring programs or less frequent region-wide surveys of the entire SCB, and these show little overlap with species that occur at depths typically encountered by scuba divers. Most chitons were collected between 30-305 m depths, although records are included for a few from slightly shallower waters. Of the two extant chiton lineages, Lepidopleurida is represented by Leptochitonidae (2 genera, 3 species), while Chitonida is represented by Ischnochitonidae (2 genera, 6-9 species) and Mopaliidae (4 genera, 7 species). -

Muscle scars in For cellia (Gastropoda; Pleurotomariacea) from the Carboniferous of England JOHN S. PEEL Peel, J. S.: Muscle scars in Porcellia (Gastropoda; Pleurotomariacea) from the Carboniferous of England. DGF Bull. geol. Soc. Denmark, vol. 35, pp. 53-58, Copenhagen, October, 29th, 1986 Two shell retractor muscles are described on an internal mould of Porcellia woodwardi, a pleurotomaria- cean gastropod from the Carboniferous of England. The scars are located at the junction between the um bilical wall, and the apical surface and the basal surface, respectively. Similar positioning of muscle scars in Bellerophon of the same age reflects morphological convergence of the planispiral, anisostrophic Por cellia with the planispiral, but isostrophic Bellerophon. It is concluded that the shape of muscle scars, in detail, can not contribute to solving the question of the systematic position of Bellerophon. John S. Peel, Grønlands Geologiske Undersøgelse, Øster Voldgade 10. DK-1350 København K, Denmark, January 8th, 1986. The bellerophontiform molluscs are a complex of its single pair of circumbilical muscles and the more than fifty isostrophically coiled genera of single pair of shell-attachment muscles of some uncertain systematic position. While traditionally extant, slit-bearing pleurotomariaceans. Other considered to be gastropods, an extended debate bellerophontiform molluscs have been conside exists in the literature as to whether or not this red to be monoplacophorans after comparison position should be maintained, or if the group between their multiple pairs of muscle scars and should be transferred in part, or as an entity, to the discrete pairs of muscle scars in the living the Monoplacophora. The central theme in this monoplacophoran Neopilina Lemche 1957, or its debate concerns the presence or absence of tor immediate, but ancient relatives Pilina Koken sion. -

SKOVSTED1 5 6 1Department of Palaeobiology, Swedish Museum of Natural History, P.O. Box 50007, 7 SE-104 05, Stockholm, Sweden. 8 2Palaeoecosystems Group, Department of Earth Sciences, Durham University, Durham 9 DH1 3LE, UK. 10 11 Mobergellans were one of the first Cambrian skeletal groups to be recognized yet have 12 long remained one of the most problematic in terms of biological function and affinity. 13 Typified by a disc-shaped, phosphatic sclerite the most distinctive character of the 14 group is a prominent set of internal scars, interpreted as representing sites of former 15 muscle attachment. Predominantly based on muscle scar distribution, mobergellans 16 have been compared to brachiopods, bivalves and monoplacophorans, however a 17 recurring theory that the sclerites acted as operculum remains untested. Rather than 18 correlate the number of muscle scars between taxa, here we focus on the percentage of 19 the inner surface shell area that the scars constitute. We investigate two mobergellan 20 species, Mobergella holsti and Discinella micans comparing the Cambrian taxa with the 21 muscle scars of a variety of extant and fossil marine invertebrate taxa to test if the 22 mobergellan muscle attachment area is compatible with an interpretation as operculum. 23 The only skeletal elements in our study with a comparable muscle attachment 24 percentage are gastropod opercula. Complemented with additional morphological 25 information, our analysis supports the theory that mobergellan sclerites acted as an 26 operculum presumably from a tube-living organism. -
