There is no shell. The tiny MOLLUSCA solenogasters have bristle-like spicules over Chitons, bivalves, sea snails, sea almost the whole body, a groove on the underside of the body, and no gills.

Aceptado el 5-VII-2003 ABSTRACT Among the biological material collected during the 1998-2001 “INVEMAR-Macrofauna” campaigns aboard the R/V Ancón along the upper zone of the continental slope of the Colombian Caribbean, at depths ranging from 200 to 520 m, a total of 104 gastropod species were obtained. Besides 18 not yet identified species, but including one recently described new species ( Armina juliana Ardila and Díaz, 2002), 48 species were not pre - viously known from Colombia, 18 of which were also unknown from the Caribbean Sea. Of the 36 families represented, Turridae was by far the richest in species (26 species). An annotated list of the taxa recorded is provided, as well as illustrations of those recorded for the first time in the area.

ARAKAWA Miyajima Aquarium, Hiroshima, Japan With 7 Text-figures Since Lister (1678) revealed specific differences existing among some molluscan faecal pellets, several works on the same line have been published during last three decades by various authors, i.e. MooRE (1930, '31, '31a, '31b, '32, '33, '33a, '39), MANNING & KuMPF ('59), etc. in which observations are made almost ex­ clusively upon European and American species. But yet our knowledge about this subject seems to be far from complete. Thus the present work is planned to enrich the knowledge in this field and based mainly on Japanese species as many as possible. In my previous paper (ARAKAWA '62), I have already given a general account on the molluscan faeces at the present level of our knowledge in this field to­ gether with my unpublished data, and so in the first part of this serial work, I am going to describe and illustrate in detail the morphological characters of faecal pellets of molluscs collected in the Inland Sea of Seto and its neighbour­ ing areas. Before going further, I must express here my hearty thanks first to the late Dr. IsAo TAKI who educated me to carry out works in Malacology as one of his pupils, and then to Drs.

  • (Gastropoda, Mollusca) Egg Capsules
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Micromorphological details and identifcation of chitinous wall structures in Rapana venosa (Gastropoda, Mollusca) egg capsules Verginica Schröder1, Ileana Rău 2*, Nicolae Dobrin3, Constanţa Stefanov3, Ciprian‑Valentin Mihali4, Carla‑Cezarina Pădureţu2 & Manuela Rossemary Apetroaei5 The present study evaluated the structural and ultrastructural characteristics of Rapana venosa egg capsules, starting from observations of their antifouling activity and mechanical resistance to water currents in mid‑shore habitats. Optical microscopy, epifuorescence, and electron microscopy were used to evaluate the surface and structure of the R. venosa egg capsules. These measurements revealed an internal multilamellar structure of the capsule wall with in‑plane distributions of layers with various orientations. It was found that the walls contained vacuolar structures in the median layer, which provided the particular characteristics. Mechanical, viscoelastic and swelling measurements were also carried out. This study revealed the presence and distribution of chitosan in the capsule of R. venosa. Chitosan identifcation in the egg capsule wall structure was carried out through SEM–EDX measurements, colorimetric assays, FT‑IR spectra and physical–chemical tests. The biopolymer presence in the capsule walls may explain the properties of their surfaces as well as the mechanical resistance of the capsule and its resistance to chemical variations in the living environment. Rapana venosa (Valenciennes, 1846) is an invasive marine neogastropod in Europe and North and South Amer- ica. Native to the Sea of Japan, Yellow Sea, East China Sea and Bohai Bay, R. venosa was accidentally introduced through ballast water into the Mediterranean Sea, Azov Sea, Adriatic Sea, Aegean Sea and Black Sea1,2.

  • Chilean Marine Mollusca of Northern Patagonia Collected During the Cimar-10 Fjords Cruise

ABSTRACT The tip of the South American cone is one of the most interesting Subantarctic areas, both biogeographically and ecologically. Nonetheless, knowledge of the area’s biodiversity, in particular that of the subtidal marine habitats, remains poor. Therefore, in 2004, a biodiversity research project was carried out as a part of the cruise Cimar-10 Fjords, organized and supported by the Chilean National Oceanographic Committee (CONA). The results of the subtidal marine mollusk surveys are presented herein. The samples were collected aboard the Agor 60 “Vidal Gormaz” in winter 2004. The study area covered the northern Chilean Patagonia from Seno de Relocanví (41º31’S) to Boca del Guafo (43º49’S), on the continental shelf from 22 to 353 m depth. The Mollusca were collected at 23 sampling sites using an Agassiz trawl. In total, 67

  • Gastropoda, Buccinidae), a Reappraisal
    Beets, Notes on Buccinulum, a reappraisal, Scripta Geol., 82 (1986) Notes on Buccinulum (Gastropoda, Buccinidae), a reappraisal C. Beets Beets, C. Notes on Buccinulum (Gastropoda, Buccinidae), a reappraisal. — Scripta Geol., 82: 83-100, pis 6-7, Leiden, January 1987 An attempt was made to assemble what is known at present of Buccinulum in the Indo-Western Pacific Region, fossil and Recent, more scope being offered by the discovery of new Miocene fossils from Java and Sumatra, and the recognition of further fossil species from India and Burma. This induced comparisons with, and revisions of some of the fossil and living species occurring in adjacent zoogeographical provinces. The Recent distribution of the subgenus Euthria appears to be much more extensive than when recorded by Wenz (1938-1944), the minimum enlargement encompassing an area stretching from the eastern Indian Ocean to Japan, via the Philippines and Ryukyu Islands. The knowledge of its fossil distribution, in the Indopacific Region long confined to Javanese Eocene, has likewise greatly expanded by discoveries made in Neogene to Quaternary of India, Burma, Indonesia (Sumatra, Java, Madura, and Borneo), the Philippines, New Hebrides, Fiji?, Ryukyu Islands, and Japan. The relevant data were tabulated. New taxa described are: Buccinulum pendopoense and B. sumatrense, both from presumed Preangerian of Sumatra, and B. walleri sedanense from the Rembangian of Java. It is proposed to include Ornopsis, which was described from the Upper Cretaceous of North America, as a subgenus of Buccinulum. It may well be ancestral to Euthria, considering its similarity to certain of the latter's fossil and living species.
