  • Reconnaître Les Principaux Bivalves Fouisseurs Ou Foreurs Au Moyen De Leurs Siphons
    Reconnaître les principaux bivalves fouisseurs ou foreurs au moyen de leurs siphons. 56 espèces Clé de détermination des 20 taxons les plus gros Yves MÜLLER Yves Müller Mai 2016 Reconnaître les principaux bivalves fouisseurs ou foreurs au moyen de leurs siphons. Dans la quasi-totalité des ouvrages traitant des mollusques lamellibranches (ou mollusques bivalves), ce sont les coquilles qui sont décrites (la conchyologie) avec principalement la description des charnières pour la classification. Pour les parties molles (la malacologie) ce sont les branchies qui sont utilisées. Ce qui n’est pas très accessible au plongeur même photographe ! Selon Martoja (1995) 75 % des espèces de bivalves vivent dans les fonds meubles. Certaines espèces trahissent leur présence par leurs siphons qui affleurent à la surface du sédiment, mais il est difficile, au cours d’une plongée, d’identifier les bivalves enfouis dans le sédiment. D’autres espèces de bivalves vivent dans des substrats durs (bois, roche). Ils forent alors une loge dans ce substrat et en général seuls les siphons sont visibles. Le même problème se pose, à quelle espèce appartiennent les siphons ? Selon Bouchet et al. (1978 :92): « Les siphons constituent un moyen de détermination des bivalves aussi fiable que la coquille et la charnière ». Des auteurs anciens comme Deshayes (1844-1848), Forbes et Hanley (1850-1853), Jeffreys (1863, 1865) et Meyer & Möbius (1872) et quelques autres plus récents comme Owen (1953 ; 1959), Purchon (1955a, b), Holme (1959) et Amouroux (1980) ont décrit les siphons de plusieurs espèces. La plupart des espèces de bivalves mesurent entre un et plusieurs centimètres mais les siphons sont pour la plupart courts ou très fins et rétractiles au moindre danger, donc difficilement observables en plongée.

  • The Earliest Bioturbators As Ecosystem Engineers
    Downloaded from http://sp.lyellcollection.org/ by guest on September 27, 2021 Engineering the Cambrian explosion: the earliest bioturbators as ecosystem engineers LIAM G. HERRINGSHAW1,2*, RICHARD H. T. CALLOW1,3 & DUNCAN MCILROY1 1Department of Earth Sciences, Memorial University of Newfoundland, Prince Philip Drive, St John’s, NL, A1B 3X5, Canada 2Geology, School of Environmental Sciences, University of Hull, Cottingham Road, Hull HU6 7RX, UK 3Statoil ASA, Stavanger 4035, Norway *Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: By applying modern biological criteria to trace fossil types and assessing burrow mor- phology, complexity, depth, potential burrow function and the likelihood of bioirrigation, we assign ecosystem engineering impact (EEI) values to the key ichnotaxa in the lowermost Cambrian (Fortunian). Surface traces such as Monomorphichnus have minimal impact on sediment properties and have very low EEI values; quasi-infaunal traces of organisms that were surficial modifiers or biodiffusors, such as Planolites, have moderate EEI values; and deeper infaunal, gallery biodiffu- sive or upward-conveying/downward-conveying traces, such as Teichichnus and Gyrolithes, have the highest EEI values. The key Cambrian ichnotaxon Treptichnus pedum has a moderate to high EEI value, depending on its functional interpretation. Most of the major functional groups of mod- ern bioturbators are found to have evolved during the earliest Cambrian, including burrow types that are highly likely to have been bioirrigated. In fine-grained (or microbially bound) sedimentary environments, trace-makers of bioirrigated burrows would have had a particularly significant impact, generating advective fluid flow within the sediment for the first time, in marked contrast with the otherwise diffusive porewater systems of the Proterozoic.

Description: Travertine is a chemical sedimentary rock formed by precipitation of carbonate minerals often influenced by microbial activity. Travertine is composed of aragonite and calcite, although iron and organic impurities can alter its color to yellow, grey, brown and even red. Travertine deposits are located either in hot or cold springs in karst areas. Water dissolves limestone at depth and become saturated with CO2. The CO2 makes the water acidic. As the groundwater resurfaces, a sudden drop in pressure causes the release of CO2 and crystallization of calcium carbonate.

Tel.: +44 1752 633272; fax: +44 1752 633102 E-mail address: [email protected] Abstract Estuarine clams Scrobicularia plana were sampled from 108 intertidal locations around the English Channel and adjacent areas. Although S. plana is believed to be a strict gonochorist, 58% of the populations sampled included intersexed individuals (described as male clams exhibiting ovotestis). Over the entire region, on average, 8.6% of male clams exhibited intersex, although proportions of affected males ranged from 0% to 53% depending on location. The severity of intersex was assessed using a simple classification scale, with the majority of individuals showing low levels of impact. Sex ratios were significantly skewed at some sites. There were no significant relationships between the incidence and severity of intersex; or of associations with size or parasitism of individual clams. Intersex in S. plana is a useful tool to assess endocrine disruptive effects in estuaries, although mechanisms of impact and causative agents remain uncertain. Keywords: Intersex, endocrine disruption, Scrobicularia plana, sex ratio, English Channel 1. Introduction Intersex In gonochoristic (dioecious) organisms, intersex is defined as the abnormal condition of being intermediate between male and female sexes, a hermaphrodite.

Abstract: The factors involved in promoting long life are extremely intriguing from a human perspective. In part by confronting our own mortality, we have a desire to understand why some organisms live for centuries and others only a matter of days or weeks. What are the factors involved in promoting long life? Not only are questions of lifespan significant from a human perspective, but they are also important from a paleontological one. Most studies of evolution in the fossil record examine changes in the size and the shape of organisms through time. Size and shape are in part a function of life history parameters like lifespan and growth rate, but so far little work has been done on either in the fossil record. The shells of bivavled mollusks may provide an avenue to do just that. Bivalves, much like trees, record their size at each year of life in their shells. In other words, bivalve shells record not only lifespan, but also growth rate.

  • Pursuing the Quest for Better Understanding the Taxonomic Distribution of the System of Doubly Uniparental Inheritance of Mtdna
    Pursuing the quest for better understanding the taxonomic distribution of the system of doubly uniparental inheritance of mtDNA Arthur Gusman1, Sophia Lecomte2, Donald T. Stewart3, Marco Passamonti4 and Sophie Breton1 1 Department of Biological Sciences, Université de Montréal, Montréal, Québec, Canada 2 Department of Biological Sciences, Université de Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France 3 Department of Biology, Acadia University, Wolfville, Nova Scotia, Canada 4 Department of Biological Geological and Environmental Sciences, University of Bologna, Bologna, Italy ABSTRACT There is only one exception to strict maternal inheritance of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in the animal kingdom: a system named doubly uniparental inheritance (DUI), which is found in several bivalve species. Why and how such a radically different system of mitochondrial transmission evolved in bivalve remains obscure. Obtaining a more complete taxonomic distribution of DUI in the Bivalvia may help to better understand its origin and function. In this study we provide evidence for the presence of sex-linked heteroplasmy (thus the possible presence of DUI) in two bivalve species, i.e., the nuculanoid Yoldia hyperborea (Gould, 1841) and the veneroid Scrobicularia plana (Da Costa, 1778), increasing the number of families in which DUI has been found by two. An update on the taxonomic distribution of DUI in the Bivalvia is also presented.

  • Does Polyxenous Symbiosis Promote Sympatric Divergence? a Morphometric and Phylogeographic Approach Based on Oxydromus Okupa (Annelida, Polychaeta, Hesionidae)

Meca Centre d’Estudis Avançats de Blanes (CEAB-CSIC), Carrer d’Accés a la Cala Sant Francesc 14, 17300 Blanes (Girona), Catalunya, Spain [email protected] Pilar Drake Instituto de Ciencias Marinas de Andalucía (ICMAN-CSIC), Avenida República Saharaui 2, Puerto Real 11519, Cádiz, Spain Daniel Martin Centre d’Estudis Avançats de Blanes (CEAB-CSIC), Carrer d’Accés a la Cala Sant Francesc 14, 17300 Blanes (Girona), Catalunya, Spain Abstract The polychaete Oxydromus okupa lives in association with the bivalves Scrobicularia plana and Maco- mopsis pellucida in the intertidal of Río San Pedro (CI = Cádiz Intertidal) and adjacent to CHipiona (CH) harbour, and in the subtidal of the Bay of Cádiz (CS = Cádiz Subtidal). We analyse these populations morphometrically, ecologically (including infestation characteristics) and genetically (intertidal popula- tions, 16S and ITS-1 genes). We consider “host”, “environment” and the combined “host and environment” as possible factors of interpopulation variability. Morphometry revealed three well-defined clusters for CI, CH and CS, showing intergroup phenotypic differences ranging from 35 to 50%. Hosts shell lengths ranged between 26 and 36 mm for S. plana and 20 and 28 mm for M. pellucida. The infestation of small M. pellucida by juvenile O. okupa suggests they show an active size segregation behaviour. The intertidal seems to be less favourable (infestation rate <25% vs. up to 65% in the subtidal), and did not show recent bottleneck events.
