Tellina external striations or ribs, and deep pallial inquinata and T. irus, initially described as sinuses (Coan and Valentich-Scott 2007). different species (the former with eastern When holding closed shell in both hands with Pacific distribution, the latter with western), the hinged area up and the ligaments toward were synonymized in the genus you, the right valve is in the right hand (Fig. 4) Heteromacoma. Later, this synonymization (Keen and Coan 1974). was reversed based on characters of shell Body: morphology and Macoma inquinata Color: (previously, and confusingly, called M. irus) Interior: Ligament is long, strong, was deemed a member of the genus narrow, and prominent (Figs. 1, 4). It is not Macoma, with an eastern Pacific distribution seated on a nymph, but is entirely external while H. irus, remained a Heteromacoma, with (Tellinidae, Coan and Valentich-Scott 2007). a the western Pacific (see Keen 1962; Coan Exterior: 1971). Thus, known synonyms for M. Byssus: inquinata include T. inquinata as well as M. Gills: irus. Subspecific designations are also Shell: Shape ovate or subovate, but not sometimes seen (e.g. Macoma circular. Posterior end is narrower and less heteromacoma inquinata, Kabat and O’Foighil rounded than anterior end. Shell is heavy, 1987). Macoma inquinata is the name almost not fragile and inflated, with subcentral exclusively used in current intertidal guides umbones (Fig. 1).

  • Mitochondrial Genomes of the Baltic Clam Macoma Balthica (Bivalvia
    Saunier et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology ( DOI 10.1186/s12862-014-0259-z RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Mitochondrial genomes of the Baltic clam Macoma balthica (Bivalvia: Tellinidae): setting the stage for studying mito-nuclear incompatibilities Alice Saunier1*, Pascale Garcia1, Vanessa Becquet1, Nathalie Marsaud2, Frédéric Escudié2 and Eric Pante1* Abstract Background: Allopatric divergence across lineages can lead to post-zygotic reproductive isolation upon secondary contact and disrupt coevolution between mitochondrial and nuclear genomes, promoting emergence of genetic incompatibilities. A previous FST scan on the transcriptome of the Baltic clam Macoma balthica highlighted several genes potentially involved in mito-nuclear incompatibilities (MNIs). As proteins involved in the mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation(OXPHO)chainarepronetoMNIsandcancontributetothemaintenanceofgeneticbarriers,the mitochondrial genomes of six Ma. balthica individuals spanning two secondary contact zones were sequenced using the Illumina MiSeq plateform. Results: The mitogenome has an approximate length of 16,806 bp and encodes 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs and 22 tRNAs, all located on the same strand. atp8, a gene long reported as rare in bivalves, was detected. It encodes 42 amino acids and is putatively expressed and functional. A large unassigned region was identified between rrnS and tRNAMet and could likely correspond to the Control Region. Replacement and synonymous mutations were mapped on the inferred secondary structure of all protein-coding genes of the OXPHO chain. The atp6 and atp8 genes were characterized by background levels of replacement mutations, relative to synonymous mutations. However, most nad genes (notably nad2 and nad5) were characterized by an elevated proportion of replacement mutations. Conclusions: Six nearly complete mitochondrial genomes were successfully assembled and annotated, providing the necessary roadmap to study MNIs at OXPHO loci.

This process aims to achieve the Good Environmental Status (GES) through the elaborated 11 Ecological Objectives and their respective common indicators. Since 2008, Contracting Parties to the Barcelona Convention have adopted the EcAp and agreed on a roadmap for its implementation. First phases of the EcAp process led to the accomplishment of 5 steps of the scheduled 7-steps process such as: 1) Definition of an Ecological Vision for the Mediterranean; 2) Setting common Mediterranean strategic goals; 3) Identification of an important ecosystem properties and assessment of ecological status and pressures; 4) Development of a set of ecological objectives corresponding to the Vision and strategic goals; and 5) Derivation of operational objectives with indicators and target levels.

  • Molecular Phylogeny of the Bivalve Superfamily Galeommatoidea
    Goto et al. BMC Evolutionary Biology 2012, 12:172 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2148/12/172 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Molecular phylogeny of the bivalve superfamily Galeommatoidea (Heterodonta, Veneroida) reveals dynamic evolution of symbiotic lifestyle and interphylum host switching Ryutaro Goto1,2*, Atsushi Kawakita3, Hiroshi Ishikawa4, Yoichi Hamamura5 and Makoto Kato1 Abstract Background: Galeommatoidea is a superfamily of bivalves that exhibits remarkably diverse lifestyles. Many members of this group live attached to the body surface or inside the burrows of other marine invertebrates, including crustaceans, holothurians, echinoids, cnidarians, sipunculans and echiurans. These symbiotic species exhibit high host specificity, commensal interactions with hosts, and extreme morphological and behavioral adaptations to symbiotic life. Host specialization to various animal groups has likely played an important role in the evolution and diversification of this bivalve group. However, the evolutionary pathway that led to their ecological diversity is not well understood, in part because of their reduced and/or highly modified morphologies that have confounded traditional taxonomy. This study elucidates the taxonomy of the Galeommatoidea and their evolutionary history of symbiotic lifestyle based on a molecular phylogenic analysis of 33 galeommatoidean and five putative galeommatoidean species belonging to 27 genera and three families using two nuclear ribosomal genes (18S and 28S ribosomal DNA) and a nuclear (histone H3) and mitochondrial (cytochrome oxidase subunit I) protein-coding genes. Results: Molecular phylogeny recovered six well-supported major clades within Galeommatoidea. Symbiotic species were found in all major clades, whereas free-living species were grouped into two major clades. Species symbiotic with crustaceans, holothurians, sipunculans, and echiurans were each found in multiple major clades, suggesting that host specialization to these animal groups occurred repeatedly in Galeommatoidea.
