Picardal Palawan, Philippines College of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, Western Philippines University Rafael M. Picardal and Roger G. Dolorosa Roger G. Dolorosa Abstract College of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, Western Philippines With the rising pressure of urbanization to biodiversity, this study aimed to obtain baseline information University on species richness of gastropods and bivalves in two protected bays (Turtle and Binunsalian) in Puerto Princesa City, Philippines before the establishment of the proposed mega resort facilities. A total of 108 species were recorded, (19 bivalves and 89 gastropods). The list includes two rare miters, seven recently described species and first record of Timoclea imbricata (Veneridae) in Palawan. Threatened species were not encountered during the survey suggesting that both bays had been overfished. Turtle Bay had very low visibility, low coral cover, substantial signs of ecosystem disturbances and shift from coral to algal communities. Although Binunsalian Bay had clearer waters and relatively high coral cover, associated fish and macrobenthic invertebrates were of low or no commercial values. Upon the establishment and operations of the resort facilities, follow-up species inventories and habitat assessment are suggested to evaluate the importance of private resorts in biodiversity restoration. Keywords: Binunsalian Bay, bivalves, gastropods, Palawan, species inventory, Turtle Bay 1. Introduction Gastropods and bivalves are among the most fascinating groups of molluscs that for centuries have attracted hobbyists, businessmen, ecologists and scientists among others from around the globe.

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given a general account on the molluscan faeces at the present level of our knowledge in this field to­ gether with my unpublished data, and so in the first part of this serial work, I am going to describe and illustrate in detail the morphological characters of faecal pellets of molluscs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.

  • Seagrass-Reef Ecosystem Connectivity of Fish and Invertebrate Communities in Zamboanguita, Philippines
    Seagrass-reef ecosystem connectivity of fish and invertebrate communities in Zamboanguita, Philippines Naomi Westlake BSc. Marine Biology 2020/21 Project Advisor: Dr Stacey DeAmicis SEAGRASS-REEF CONNECTIVITY IN THE PHILIPPINES Seagrass-reef ecosystem connectivity of fish and invertebrate communities in Zamboanguita, Philippines Westlake, Naomi School of Science and Engineering, University of Plymouth, Devon, PL4 8AA [email protected] ABSTRACT Seagrass meadows are important coastal marine ecosystems that are frequently found in close proximity to coral reefs, and temporarily play host to a wide range of reef species for many reasons. Seagrass populations are declining globally, and these losses pose a great risk to areas such as South- East Asia where the livelihoods of people are heavily dependent on seagrass-reef systems. Hence, seagrass ecosystem management within these regions is extremely important. The aim of this study was to gain a greater understanding of seagrass-reef ecosystem connectivity within the Indo-Pacific, and to use findings to inform future marine reserve planning in the region. Visual census belt surveys (n = 140) were conducted within the Seagrass, Interface and Reef zones of three Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) in Zamboanguita, Philippines, with fish and invertebrate communities compared across zones. Species diversity trends varied across sites, as did fish abundance, fish biomass, and fish community composition trends. For Malatapay and Lutoban South MPAs, fish assemblages did not differ across zones, and Seagrass and Reef zones shared approximately 20 % of species, indicating high ecosystem connectivity. Presumed habitat uses by fish at these sites include foraging and nursery grounds, as well as potential breeding by a pair of longface emperors.

  • Marine Gastropods of American Samoa Introduction
    Micronesica 41(2):237–252, 2011 Marine gastropods of American Samoa D.P. Brown Isle Royale National Park, Houghton, MI 49931 Abstract—Collected for food for over 3,000 years by the indigenous Samoan people, marine gastropods in American Samoa have never been collected and cataloged for science. This study documents 385 marine gastropods from 50 families occurring in the U.S. territory of American Samoa. Ten of these are listed by genus only and one by family. The num- ber of gastropods currently reported is likely significantly underestimated and a conservative estimate of the richness yet to be discovered. Introduction Molluscs have been collected in Samoa since the earliest inhabitants arrived some 3,000 years ago (Craig et al 2008, Kramer 1994, Kirch and Hunt, 1993, Nagaoka 1993). Much of this reef gleaning was directed at the cephalopods, the large and colorful giant clams (Tridacna spp.) and the larger marine snails such as Trochus spp, Lambis spp., Cassis spp., Turbo spp., and Tutufa spp., although any marine mollusc was likely taken if found (Munro 1999). While the limited archeological evidence provides an initial species list, this long history of the use of marine molluscs provided a very limited understanding of the marine gastro- SRGVRIWKHDUFKLSHODJR(YHQDIWHU(XURSHDQFRQWDFWIHZVHULRXVRUDPDWHXUVKHOO collectors made the long voyage to the S. Pacific to catalog the gastropoda. Until very recently, and before the advent of SCUBA, much of the gastropod knowledge in the area came from the shallow depths available to free-divers, what could be dredged off the bottom, and what washed onto the shore. The first organized sci- entific investigations into the Samoan gastropods weren’t carried out until the 18th century by the La Perouse expedition.

Y. Low Abstract. An annotated checklist of the Mollusca from the Australian Indian Ocean Territories (IOT) of Christmas Island (Indian Ocean) and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands is presented. The checklist combines data from all previous studies and new material collected during the recent Christmas Island Expeditions organised by the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum (formerly the Raffles Museum of Biodiversty Resarch), Singapore. The checklist provides an overview of the diversity of the malacofauna occurring in the Cocos (Keeling) / Christmas Island ecoregion. A total of 1,178 species representing 165 families are documented, with 760 (in 130 families) and 757 (in 126 families) species recorded from Christmas Island and the Cocos (Keeling) Islands, respectively. Forty-five species (or 3.8%) of these species are endemic to the Australian IOT. Fifty-seven molluscan records for this ecoregion are herein published for the first time. We also briefly discuss historical patterns of discovery and endemism in the malacofauna of the Australian IOT. Key words.

This iconic group comprises Strombidae over 130 species, including many large and charismatic species. The family Strombidae is of particular interest, Xenophoroidea largely due to its commercial importance and wide distribution in tropical and subtropical waters. Although a Mitochondrial genome few strombid mitochondrial genomes have been sequenced, data for the other four Recent families in Strom­ Systematics Phylogenetics boidea are lacking. In this study we report seven new stromboid mitogenomes obtained from transcriptomic and genomic data, with taxonomic representation from each Recent stromboid family, including the first mitoge­ nomes for Aporrhaidae, Rostellariidae, Seraphsidae and Struthiolariidae.

SUMMARY This study provides a checklist of the distribution and relative abundance of Strombidae from the near- shore environment of Green Island, Queensland, Australia. Historical records indicate that this island has not been surveyed for at least half a century. We used an opportunistic sighting survey method, where we walked the path of the receding tidal line around the island, counting and measuring all species that we observed directly. We also recorded the substrate on which each individual was collected as sand, sand-seagrass or seagrass. Eleven species of Strombidae were found. The survey provided the first record of Ministrombus athenius (Duclos, 1844) from North Queensland. This study provides base-line data on the presence and distribution of near-shore Stromboidea that will enable future studies to detect and monitor changes in the composition of near-shore strombid species. INTRODUCTION the Great Barrier Reef, little is known of localised correlated effects of anthropogenic Studies of species distributions can provide activity on species distribution patterns essential information for the long-term (Mapstone et al.

SIMONE ABSTRACT A detailed comparative morphology of the following 21 species is made: 1) Strombidae: Strombus pugilis (Brazil), S. alatus (Florida, USA), S. gracilior (form Panama, Pacific coast), Eustrombus goliath (Brazil), E. gigas (Caribbean), Aliger costatus, A. gallus (northeastern Brazil), Tricornis raninus (Carib- bean); Conomurex luhuanus, Canarium urceus, Lambis lambis, Terebellum terebellum (all Australia), Tibia insulaechorab (Pakistan); 2) Struthiolariidae: Struthiolaria papulosa (New Zealand), Tylospira scutulata (Australia); 3) Aporrhaidae: Cuphosolenus serresianus new comb., Aporrhais occidentalis and A. pespelicani (North Atlantic and Europe); 4) Xenophoridae: Onustus caribaeus and Xenophora conchyliophora (West Atlantic) and O. indicus (Australia). The three former families are usually consid- ered members of the superfamily Stromboidea, while the Xenophoridae are included in their own super- family Xenophoroidea. A phylogenetic (cladistic) analysis is undertaken, based on 102 characters (255 states); with some basal Caenogastropoda as the main outgroup. A single most parsimonious tree was obtained (length: 209, CI: 74; RI: 86) as follows: ((T. scutulata – S. papulosa) (C. serresianus ((A. occidentalis
