Reef Building Mediterranean Vermetid Gastropods: Disentangling the Dendropoma Petraeum Species Complex J

TEMPLADO1, A. RICHTER2 and M. CALVO1 1 Museo Nacional de Ciencias Naturales (CSIC), José Gutiérrez Abascal 2, 28006 Madrid, Spain 2 Oviedo University, Faculty of Biology, Dep. Biology of Organisms and Systems (Zoology), Catedrático Rodrigo Uría s/n, 33071 Oviedo, Spain Corresponding author: [email protected] Handling Editor: Marco Oliverio Received: 21 April 2014; Accepted: 3 July 2015; Published on line: 20 January 2016 Abstract A previous molecular study has revealed that the Mediterranean reef-building vermetid gastropod Dendropoma petraeum comprises a complex of at least four cryptic species with non-overlapping ranges. Once specific genetic differences were de- tected, ‘a posteriori’ searching for phenotypic characters has been undertaken to differentiate cryptic species and to formally describe and name them. The name D. petraeum (Monterosato, 1884) should be restricted to the species of this complex dis- tributed around the central Mediterranean (type locality in Sicily). In the present work this taxon is redescribed under the oldest valid name D. cristatum (Biondi, 1857), and a new species belonging to this complex is described, distributed in the western Mediterranean. These descriptions are based on a comparative study focusing on the protoconch, teleoconch, and external and internal anatomy. Morphologically, the two species can be only distinguished on the basis of non-easily visible anatomical features, and by differences in protoconch size and sculpture. -

OPPOSITE: Captain Tabletop corals hide shy fish Gavin maneuvers below, and boulder corals, eight through a channel. meters across, shelter coral trout big enough to feed my extended family. Tiny baby reef fish dart inside the protective arms of a branching staghorn coral, while bright red fan corals filter the passing currents for tasty plankton morsels. SOut in the deeper waters, the reef drops hundreds of meters to the sea floor. Harmless whitetip reef sharks rest in small caves, and mysterious garden eels protrude from sandy areas like fingers, retracting as I approach. Predators like barracuda and tuna loiter, seemingly surprised to see us, while a young manta ray banks around us for an inspection.

What Kind of Crisis?”1 which concluded that the two dominant characteristics of the Sudanese state are (a) the extreme economic and political inequality between a hyper-dominant centre and peripheries that are weak and fragmented and (b) the failure of any single group or faction within the centre to exercise effective control over the institutions of the state, but who nonetheless can collectively stay in power because of their disproportionate resources. -
Kimberley Marine Biota. History and Environment
RECORDS OF THE WESTERN AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM 84 001–018 (2014) DOI: 10.18195/issn.0313-122x.84.2014.001-018 SUPPLEMENT Kimberley marine biota. History and environment Barry Wilson Research Associate, Department of Aquatic Zoology, Western Australian Museum, Locked Bag 49, Welshpool DC, Western Australia 6986, Australia. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT – The remote tropical Kimberley region of Western Australia is introduced, its physical marine environment, habitats and classifi cation into bioregions are described, and its marine science history is summarised. An introduction to the ongoing Western Australian Museum marine biological survey program and its objectives are also provided. The geology, metocean conditions and climate of the region are summarised. A primary division of the Kimberley coastline is noted with a northern section dominated by Proterozoic meta-sedimentary and igneous rocks (Kimberley and Bonaparte Gulf Bioregions) and a southern section dominated by Mesozoic and Cainozoic sedimentary rocks (King Sound and Canning Bioregions). In the former section inner shelf seabed sediments overlying the inundated Yampi Plateau are principally of terrestrial origin while in the Canning Bioregion they are principally marine carbonates. On the middle and outer shelf (Oceanic Shoals and North West Shelf Bioregions) sediments are primarily marine carbonates. Along the shelf margin the water is clear and oligotrophic and subject to the Indonesian Through Flow current that originates in the western Pacifi c. The coastal zone is macrotidal, currents are predominantly tide driven and the coastal water is turbid and probably nutrient rich. These environmental differences and the different connectivity regimes account for distinctive offshore and coastal reef communities. KEYWORDS: marine flora, marine fauna, habitats, geology, ocean currents, climate, species distributions, biogeographic affi nities, IMCRA Bioregions, science history INTRODUCTION traditional lands in their care under the Healthy The Kimberley is the northernmost part Country program. -
