In this perspective, the numerical extrapolation applied to incomplete “S.A.D.” can effectively compensate for S.A.D.s incompleteness, when having to deal with substantially incomplete samplings. Indeed, almost as much information can be released from extrapolated “S.A.D.s” as would be obtained from truly complete “S.A.D.s”, although the taxonomic identities of unrecorded species remain of course ignored by numerical extrapolation. To take full advantage of this new approach, a recently developed procedure allowing the least- biased numerical extrapolation of “S.A.D.s” has been applied to three partially sampled gastropods communities associated to coral-reef in Mannar Gulf (S-E India).

Among the molluscs some have pronounced pharmacological activities or other properties which are useful in biomedical area. Methods: In the present study glycosaminoglycans was isolated from two marine gastropods such as Babylonia spirata and Phalium glaucum. Results: The isolated glycosaminoglycans were quantified in crude samples and they were estimated as 8.7 gm/kg & 5.3 gm/kg crude in Babylonia spirata and Phalium glaucum respectively. Both the gastropods showed the anticoagulant activity of the crude samples 134 USP units/mg and 78 USP units/mg correspondingly in B. spirata and P. glaucum. In the agarose gel electrophoresis using acetate buffer, the band of the crude samples studied showed the band with similar mobility to standard heparin sulfate. FTIR analysis reveals the presence of anticoagulant substance signals at different ranges. Conclusion: Among the two gastropods B. spirata showed more anticoagulant activity than that of P. glaucum. Keywords: B. spirata, P. glaucum Anticoagulant activity, Agarose gel electrophoresis, FTIR INTRODUCTION heparin-like compounds in molluscs were observed by [21-25] studied in-vitro anticoagulant activities of alginate sulphate and its Commonly glycosaminoglycans are classified based on their quaterized derivates.

Kondisi Faktor Abiotik Ekosistem perairan dapat dipengaruhi oleh suatu kesatuan faktor lingkungan, yaitu biotik dan abiotik. Faktor abiotik merupakan faktor alam non-organisme yang mempengaruhi proses perkembangan dan pertumbuhan makhluk hidup. Dalam penelitian ini, dilakukan analisis faktor abiotik berupa faktor kimia dan fisika. Faktor kimia meliputi derajat keasaman (pH). Sedangkan faktor fisika meliputi suhu dan salinitas air laut.

  • THE LISTING of PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS Guido T
    August 2017 Guido T. Poppe A LISTING OF PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS - V1.00 THE LISTING OF PHILIPPINE MARINE MOLLUSKS Guido T. Poppe INTRODUCTION The publication of Philippine Marine Mollusks, Volumes 1 to 4 has been a revelation to the conchological community. Apart from being the delight of collectors, the PMM started a new way of layout and publishing - followed today by many authors. Internet technology has allowed more than 50 experts worldwide to work on the collection that forms the base of the 4 PMM books. This expertise, together with modern means of identification has allowed a quality in determinations which is unique in books covering a geographical area. Our Volume 1 was published only 9 years ago: in 2008. Since that time “a lot” has changed. Finally, after almost two decades, the digital world has been embraced by the scientific community, and a new generation of young scientists appeared, well acquainted with text processors, internet communication and digital photographic skills. Museums all over the planet start putting the holotypes online – a still ongoing process – which saves taxonomists from huge confusion and “guessing” about how animals look like. Initiatives as Biodiversity Heritage Library made accessible huge libraries to many thousands of biologists who, without that, were not able to publish properly. The process of all these technological revolutions is ongoing and improves taxonomy and nomenclature in a way which is unprecedented. All this caused an acceleration in the nomenclatural field: both in quantity and in quality of expertise and fieldwork. The above changes are not without huge problematics. Many studies are carried out on the wide diversity of these problems and even books are written on the subject.

The genus Babylonia revisited (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Buccinidae). Zool. Verh. Leiden 345, 31.x.2003: 151-162, figs 1-24.— ISSN 0024-1652/ISBN 90-73239-89-3. E. Gittenberger & J. Goud, Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum, Postbus 9517, NL 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands (e-mail: [email protected]) Key words: Gastropoda; Buccinidae; Babylonia; Plio/Pleistocene; recent; taxonomy; new species; distri- bution. Taxonomic and biogeographic data on Babylonia and Zemiropsis, published after the 1981 monograph on Babylonia by Altena & Gittenberger, are summarized and new data are added. Babylonia and Zemiropsis are characterized and considered most closely related genera. Babylonia lani spec. nov. and Babylonia umbilifusca spec. nov. are introduced as new to science. Babylonia leonis Altena & Gittenberger, 1972, described from pliocene-pleistocene deposits, is reported as an extant species. The enigmatic “Babylonia” rosadoi is considered a Zemiropsis species on the basis of both shell morphology and distribution. Introduction While revising the buccinid genus Babylonia Schlüter, 1838, Altena & Gittenberger (1981) distinguished 11 extant species, two of which polytypic with two subspecies each, and 12 fossil and extinct species. Six recent species are also known as miocene or younger fossils. Five fossil species are known from the Mediterranean region. The old- est Babylonia species are from eocene deposits in Italy. The genus apparently originated in the Tethys Sea and became extinct in the Mediterranean region after the Miocene. The three actually most common species, viz. Babylonia areolata, B. japonica and B. spira- ta, have continuous ranges.

Conids are well known for being active predators on worms, fishes, and even other snails. Cones are venomous gastropods, meaning that they use a sophisticated cocktail of hundreds of toxins, named conotoxins, to subdue their prey. Although this venom has been studied for decades, most of the effort has been focused on Indo-Pacific species. Thus far, Atlantic species have received little attention despite recent radiations have led to a hotspot of diversity in West Africa, with high levels of endemic species. In fact, the Atlantic Chelyconus ermineus is thought to represent an adaptation to piscivory independent from the Indo-Pacific species and is, therefore, key to understanding the basis of this diet specialization. We studied the transcriptomes of the venom gland of three individuals of C. ermineus. The venom repertoire of this species included more than 300 conotoxin precursors, which could be ascribed to 33 known and 22 new (unassigned) protein superfamilies, respectively. Most abundant superfamilies were T, W, O1, M, O2, and Z, accounting for 57% of all detected diversity.
