Page 1/34 Abstract Background Photosymbiotic associations between metazoan hosts and photosynthetic dinoagellates are crucial to the trophic and structural integrity of many marine ecosystems, including coral reefs. Although extensive efforts have been devoted to study the short-term ecological interactions between coral hosts and their symbionts, long-term evolutionary dynamics of photosymbiosis in many marine animals are not well understood. Within Bivalvia, the second largest class of mollusks, obligate photosymbiosis is found in two marine lineages: the giant clams (subfamily Tridacninae) and the heart cockles (subfamily Fraginae), both in the family Cardiidae. Morphologically, giant clams show relatively conservative shell forms whereas photosymbiotic fragines exhibit a diverse suite of anatomical adaptations including attened shells, leafy mantle extensions, and lens-like microstructural structures. To date, the phylogenetic relationships between these two subfamilies remain poorly resolved, and it is unclear whether photosymbiosis in cardiids originated once or twice.

  • Supplement – December 2017 – Survey of the Literature on Recent
    A Malacological Journal ISSN 1565-1916 No. 36 - SUPPLEMENT DECEMBER 2017 2 SURVEY OF THE LITERATURE ON RECENT SHELLS FROM THE RED SEA (third enlarged and revised edition) L.J. van Gemert* Summary This literature survey lists approximately 3,050 references. Shells are being considered here as the shell bearing molluscs of the Gastropoda, Bivalvia and Scaphopoda. The area does not only comprise the Red Sea, but also the Gulf of Aden, Somalia and the Suez Canal, including the Lessepsian species in the Mediterranean Sea. Literature on fossils shells, particularly those from the Holocene, Pleistocene and Pliocene, is listed too. Introduction My interest in recent shells from the Red Sea dates from about 1996. Since then, I have been, now and then, trying to obtain information on this subject. Some years ago I decide to stop gathering data in a haphazard way and to do it more properly. This resulted in a first survey of approximately 1,420 and a second one of 2,025 references (van Gemert, 2010 & 2011). Since then, this survey has again been enlarged and revised and a number of errors have been corrected. It contains now approximately 3,050 references. Scope In principle every publication in which molluscs are reported to live or have lived in the Red Sea should be listed in the survey. This means that besides primary literature, i.e. articles in which researchers are reporting their finds for the first time, secondary and tertiary literature, i.e. reviews, monographs, books, etc are to be included too. These publications were written not only by a wide range of authors ranging from amateur shell collectors to professional malacologists but also people interested in the field of archaeology, geology, etc.

  • On Bivalve Phylogeny: a High-Level Analysis of the Bivalvia (Mollusca) Based on Combined Morphology and DNA Sequence Data
    Invertebrate Biology 12 I(4): 27 1-324. 0 2002 American Microscopical Society, Inc. On bivalve phylogeny: a high-level analysis of the Bivalvia (Mollusca) based on combined morphology and DNA sequence data Gonzalo Giribet'%aand Ward Wheeler2 ' Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology, Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University; 16 Divinity Avenue, Cambridge, Massachusetts 021 38, USA Division of Invertebrate Zoology, American Museum of Natural History, Central Park West at 79th Street, New York, New York 10024, USA Abstract. Bivalve classification has suffered in the past from the crossed-purpose discussions among paleontologists and neontologists, and many have based their proposals on single char- acter systems. More recently, molecular biologists have investigated bivalve relationships by using only gene sequence data, ignoring paleontological and neontological data. In the present study we have compiled morphological and anatomical data with mostly new molecular evi- dence to provide a more stable and robust phylogenetic estimate for bivalve molluscs. The data here compiled consist of a morphological data set of 183 characters, and a molecular data set from 3 loci: 2 nuclear ribosomal genes (1 8s rRNA and 28s rRNA), and 1 mitochondria1 coding gene (cytochrome c oxidase subunit I), totaling -3 Kb of sequence data for 76 rnollu bivalves and 14 outgroup taxa). The data have been analyzed separately and in combination by using the direct optimization method of Wheeler (1 996), and they have been evaluated under 1 2 analytical schemes. The combined analysis supports the monophyly of bivalves, paraphyly of protobranchiate bivalves, and monophyly of Autolamellibranchiata, Pteriomorphia, Hetero- conchia, Palaeoheterodonta, and Heterodonta s.I., which includes the monophyletic taxon An- omalodesmata.

Loka Konservasi Biota Laut, Pusat Penelitian Oseanografi, Lembaga Ilmu Pengetahuan Indonesia (LIPI), Tual Maluku Tenggara 97611 Received: 30th November 2007. Accepted: 6th December 2008. ABSTRACT Giant clams are the largest bivalves in the world that maintain a mutual relationship with zooxanthellae. Individual giant clam can harbor heterogeneous zooxanthellae, at least four taxa in genus Symbiodinium. The Symbiodinium lives in the zooxanthellal tubular system, a tube structure arising from one of the diverticular duct of the clam’s stomach. Since the numbers of zooxanthellae is the one of some significant factors contributing to the clams growth and survival, the giant clams need to adjust the number of zooxanthellae for physiological reason with unclear mechanism. The important role of the symbiotic relationship to the clams can be seen on the survival, growth and nutrition of the clams. There are at least two significant factors determining the symbiosis, i.e. water temperature in related with level of light intensities and ammonium-phosphate rate. Some topic is still unclear, i.e. the determination of species in genus Symbiodinium, the mechanism for adjusting the population numbers of the algae and what kind of environmental factors determining the symbiosis. Thereby further research is still needed to clarify those missing. © 2008 Jurusan Biologi FMIPA UNS Surakarta Key words: giant clams, zooxanthellae, Symbiodinium, symbiosis.

We exposed 27 isolates of symbiotic dino¯agellates simultaneously to UV-B/A and PAR, and subsequently determined the MAAs present in cell extracts and in the media. The algae used included 24 isolates of Symbiodinium spp. originating from jelly®shes, sea anemones, zoanthids, scleractinians, octocorals, and bivalves, and three others in the genera Gymnodinium, Gloeodinium and Amphidinium from a jelly®sh, an hydrocoral and a ¯atworm, respectively. In this study, all of the phylotype A Symbiodinium spp. synthesized up to three identi®ed MAAs. None of the 11 cultured phylotypes B and C Symbiodinium spp. synthesized MAAs. The three non-Symbiodinium symbionts also synthesized up to three MAAs. The results support a conclusion that phylotype A Symbiodinium spp.

The upper Miocene mollusc collection from Monti Livornesi, Italy, collected more than a century ago, is confronted with new collections coming from the same localities of Popogna and Quarata. The study concerns the comparison of abundance data of three distinct fossil assemblages from the three vertically-stacked stratigraphic units called Luppiano, Rosignano and Raquese, of upper Tortonian-early Messinian age. Literature and museologi- cal data allowed to attribute most museum specimens to one and only one fossil assemblage. Museum collections preserve roughly the same dominant species, with similar ranks as the new quantitative field collections.

Close examination of this material has lindamaesae spec. nov., a new cardiid from Ascen- led to the conclusion that the Ascension population of A. sion Island (Bivalvia, Cardiidae). – Basteria 83 (1-3): media is specifically different.

The material for this study almost exclusively originates It is compared with the related Americardia media (Lin- from the collection efforts made by Judith Brown (jb), Sa- naeus, 1758), A. lightbourni Lee & Huber, 2012, A. columbel­ rah Browning-Lee (sbl) and Peter Wirtz (pw) during vari- la Lee & Huber, 2012 and A. speciosa (A. Adams & Reeve, ous expeditions to Ascension Island between 2015 and 2018. 1850). Besides limited beach collecting, numerous scuba dives down to 35 m depth were performed at multiple sites. With Key words: Bivalvia, Cardiidae, Americardia, new species, the prevailing southeast winds, diving largely focussed at tropical South Atlantic Ocean, Ascension. sites located north and west of the island. In addition to handpicking, shell grit samples were taken from various depths. INTRODUCTION Unless stated otherwise, the used morphological termi- nology follows Lee & Huber (2012).
