ABSTRACT The metacommunity framework integrates species-specific responses to environmental gradients to detect emergent patterns of mesoscale organization. Abiotic char- acteristics (temperature, precipitation) and associated vegetation types change with elevation in a predictable fashion, providing opportunities to decouple effects of environmental gradients per se from those of biogeographical or historical origin. Moreover, expected structure is different if a metacommunity along an elevational gradient is molded by idiosyncratic responses to abiotic variables (expectation = Gleasonian structure) than if such a metacommunity is molded by strong habitat preferences or specializations (expectation = Clementsian structure). We evaluated metacommunity structure for 13 species of gastropod from 15 sites along an ele- vational transect in the Luquillo Experimental Forest of Puerto Rico. Analyses were conducted separately for the primary axis and for the secondary axis of corre- spondence extracted via reciprocal averaging. The metacommunity exhibited quasi-Clementsian structure along the primary axis, which represented a gradient of gastropod species specialization that was unassociated with elevation.

New characters on shell, anatomy of soft parts, and a review of the genus distribution in South America, as well as clarification on S. brasiliana distributional area are provided in the present study. Solaropsis brasiliana is diagnosed by its globose, solid, and hirsute shell, with periphery obsoletely angular, bursa copulatrix with a thick, long diverticulum, a thick, long flagellum and a penis retractor muscle forked, with the vas deferens passing through it. This compiled information was used to test the phylogenetic position of S. brasiliana within South American Pleurodontidae through a cladistics analysis. In the phylogenetic hypothesis obtained, S. brasiliana is sister group of S. gibboni (Pfeiffer 1846) and the monophyly of the genus Solaropsis Beck is also supported. Here, we sustain that the distribution of S.

We evaluated metacommunity structure for 13 species of gastropod from 15 sites along an ele- vational transect in the Luquillo Experimental Forest of Puerto Rico. Analyses were conducted separately for the primary axis and for the secondary axis of corre- spondence extracted via reciprocal averaging. The metacommunity exhibited quasi-Clementsian structure along the primary axis, which represented a gradient of gastropod species specialization that was unassociated with elevation.

  • Land Snail Diversity in Brazil

Salvador Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, Wellington, New Zealand. E-mail: [email protected] Salvador R.B. (2019) Land snail diversity in Brazil. Strombus 25(1–2): 10–20. Abstract: Brazil is a megadiverse country for many (if not most) animal taxa, harboring a signifi- cant portion of Earth’s biodiversity. Still, the Brazilian land snail fauna is not that diverse at first sight, comprising around 700 native species. Most of these species were described by European and North American naturalists based on material obtained during 19th-century expeditions. Ear- ly 20th century malacologists, like Philadelphia-based Henry A. Pilsbry (1862–1957), also made remarkable contributions to the study of land snails in the country. From that point onwards, however, there was relatively little interest in Brazilian land snails until very recently. The last de- cade sparked a renewed enthusiasm in this branch of malacology, and over 50 new Brazilian spe- cies were revealed. An astounding portion of the known species (circa 45%) presently belongs to the superfamily Orthalicoidea, a group of mostly tree snails with typically large and colorful shells. It has thus been argued that the missing majority would be comprised of inconspicuous microgastropods that live in the undergrowth. In fact, several of the species discovered in the last decade belong to these “low-profile” groups and many come from scarcely studied regions or environments, such as caverns and islands.

  • Actividad Diaria De Polymita Muscarum
    REVISTA CUBANA DE CIENCIAS BIOLÓGICAS http://www.rccb.uh.cu ARTÍCULO ORIGINAL Actividad diaria de Polymita muscarum (Gastropoda: Cepolidae) en un agroecosistema: relación con factores climáticos y duración del apareamiento Daily activity of Polymita muscarum (Gastropoda: Cepolidae) in an agroecosystem: relationship with climatic factors and mating duration Bernardo Reyes-Tur1, Libertad A. Flores-Ricardo1, Alejandro Fernández-Velázquez2 1Departamento de Biología y RESUMEN Geografía, Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Exactas, Universi- El clima global cambia de manera acelerada; por tanto, el conocimiento de dad de Oriente los ciclos de actividad diaria, y su relación con los factores climáticos y la biología reproductiva, es cardinal para la conservación y el manejo de los moluscos terrestres. Sin embargo, no existen estudios sobre el tema para el 2Centro de Investigaciones y molusco arborícola cubano Polymita muscarum (Cepolidae). En consecuen- Servicios Ambientales y Tecno- cia, el objetivo del presente estudio fue caracterizar el ritmo diario de activi- dad de P. muscarum, así como su relación con la temperatura, la humedad lógicos. CISAT-CITMA relativa y la duración del apareamiento. Además, se evaluó la asignación de tiempo para el apareamiento en función del ciclo diario. La investigación se realizó en septiembre y octubre-2012, en un agroecosistema de Yaguajay, Banes, Holguín. Cada mes se determinó la cantidad de individuos adultos Autor para correspondencia: activos durante recorridos de 30 min, cada 1 h, entre 24-29 h, en una parce- [email protected] la fija de 119 m2. Se detectó un patrón diario de actividad de tipo unimodal. Además, para ambos meses se demostró regresión lineal múltiple significati- va entre el log10 (cantidad de individuos adultos activos + 1,5) y las variables climáticas analizadas.
