Department of Zoology and Aquaculture, Acharya Darwin Ch. and P Padmavathi Nagarjuna University Nagarjuna Nagar, Abstract Andhra Pradesh, India Among the various groups represented in the macrobenthic fauna of the Bay of Bengal at Prakasam P Padmavathi district, Andhra Pradesh, India, molluscs were the dominant group. Molluscs were exploited for Department of Zoology and industrial, edible and ornamental purposes and their extensive use has been reported way back from time Aquaculture, Acharya immemorial. Hence the present study was focused to investigate the diversity of Molluscan fauna along Nagarjuna University the Paleru and Moosy backwaters of Prakasam district during 2016-17 as these backwaters are not so far Nagarjuna Nagar, explored for malacofauna. A total of 23 species of molluscs (16 species of gastropods belonging to 12 Andhra Pradesh, India families and 7 species of bivalves representing 5 families) have been reported in the present study. Among these, gastropods such as Umbonium vestiarium, Telescopium telescopium and Pirenella cingulata, and bivalves like Crassostrea madrasensis and Meretrix meretrix are found to be the most dominant species in these backwaters. Keywords: Malacofauna, diversity, gastropods, bivalves, backwaters 1. Introduction Molluscans are the second largest phylum next to Arthropoda with estimates of 80,000- 100,000 described species [1]. These animals are soft bodied and are extremely diversified in shape and colour.

HARDING Department of Fisheries Science, Virginia Institute of Marine Science, P. O. Box 1346, Gloucester Point, Virginia 23062 ABSTRACT Planktonic larvae of benthic fauna that can grow quickly in the plankton and reduce their larval period duration lessen their exposure to pelagic predators and reduce the potential for advection away from suitable habitats. Veined rapa whelks (Rapana venosa, Muricidae) lay egg masses that release planktonic veliger larvae from May through August in Chesapeake Bay, USA. Two groups of veliger larvae hatched from egg masses during June and August 2000 were cultured in the laboratory. Egg mass incubation time (time from deposition to hatch) ranged from 18–26 d at water temperatures between 22°C and 27°C.

Species description Species name Rapana venosa, (Valenciennes, 1846) – Veined rapa whelk Synonyms Purpura venosa Valenciennes, 1846; Rapana thomasiana Crosse, 1861; ?Rapana marginata (Valenciennes, 1846); ?Rapana pechiliensis Grabau & King, 1928; Rapana pontica Nordsieck, 1969. Common names Veined rapa whelk, Asian rapa whelk (USA, UK); Thomas’ whelk (English common name for Black Sea whelks identified as R. thomasiana); Cocozza, Bobolone (IT); Geaderde stekelhoorn (NL); Bai top shell (commercial name for Bulgarian Black Sea specimens); Akanishi (JP). Taxonomic note The genus Rapana is sometimes referred to the family Muricidae (e.g., DAISIE, 2006), sometimes to Thaididae (e.g., Koutsoubas & Voultsiadou-Koukoura, 1991; Mann & Harding, 2000). According to World Register of Marine Species (WoRMS) the family should be Muricidae, and the Thaididae is considered a synonym of Rapaninae, a subfamily of Muricidae (see Bouchet & Rocroi, 2005). Identification Rapana venosa is a large, 9-16 cm shell length, species with a heavy, strongly sculptured shell. Specimens up to 17.5 cm have been recorded in the Black Sea (Micu et al., 2008). The spire is relatively short, less than half the height of the aperture.

This record represents a transoceanic range expansion for this carnivorous species. This species has previously been introduced to the Black Sea, Adriatic Sea, and Aegean Sea. Ballast water transport of larval stages from the eastern Mediterranean or Black Sea is the suspected vector of introduction into the Chesapeake Bay; 650 adult specimens in the size range 68-165 mm shell length (SL) have been collected from hard sand bottom in depths ranging from 5 to 20 m at salinities of 18-28 ppt. The absence of small individuals from local collections is probably related to bias in collection methods. Age of the specimens could not be determined. R. venosa is probably capable of reproducing in the Chesapeake Bay. Egg cases ofR.

This record is the first for the North Sea and The Netherlands. In September, a second veined whelk ended up in the nets of an Eurokotter in the central southern North Sea (the wider Thames estuary) and in November a third one was caught off Scheveningen again. These records - together with reports of more specimens occasionally being fished - indicate that this ferocious invasive East Asian gastropod has established a (small) population in the North Sea. This paper describes the three records, discusses the ways Rapana may have reached the North Sea and the possible impact on the marine ecosystem and local aquacultures of bivalve shells.

Note Scanning Electron Microscope Studies on the Radula Teeth of Four

Fish., 63(1) : 140-145, 2016 140 DOI:10.21077/ijf.2016.63.1.21949-22 Note Scanning electron microscope studies on the radula teeth of four species of marine gastropods from the Gulf of Mannar, India V.VENKATESAN1, P. RAMESHKUMAR2 AND A. BABU3 1ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Kochi - 682 018, Kerala, India 2Regional Centre of ICAR-Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Mandapam Camp - 623 520, Tamil Nadu, India 3Centre for Advanced Studies in Marine Biology, Annamalai University, Parangipettai - 608 502, Tamil Nadu, India ABSTRACT In this study scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to elucidate the surface morphology of radula teeth of four species of marine gastropods belonging to muricids and tonnoideans from the Gulf of Mannar. The species studied were Tonna dolium (Linne, 1758), Phalium glaucum (Linne, 1758), Murex virgineus (Roding, 1798) and Rapana rapiformis (Born, 1778). The radulae of muricid gastropods were of stenoglossan type (1+R+1) while the radulae of tonnoidean gastropods were of taenioglossate type (2+1+R+1+2). Very large radula and solid teeth in all four species indicate that they are well adapted to capture of prey and showed characteristic representation of the sharp and pointed apex. The shafts of the teeth of R. rapiformis, T. dolium and M virgeneus are thickened and expanded at the base to form a butt and the basal spur as well as their marginal and central teeth are sickle shaped. Radulae of both groups are well suited for tearing and rasping. The examination of the central tooth, the lateral and marginal ones, by SEM provides further information for species differentiation.
