  • Differential Algal Consumption by Three Species of <I>Fissurella</I
    BULLETIN OF MARINE SCIENCE. 46(3): 735-748.1990 DIFFERENTIAL ALGAL CONSUMPTION BY THREE SPECIES OF FISSURELLA(MOLLUSCA:GASTROPODA)AT ISLA DE MARGARITA, VENEZUELA Craig J. Franz ABSTRACT Visual observations and gut analyses were used to determine types of food ingested by Fissurella nimbosa (Linnaeus, 1758), F. nodosa (Born, 1778), and F. barbadensis (Gmelin, 1791) at Isla de Margarita, Venezuela. Although these animals have a wide variety of algal sources from which to select and on which they appear to feed in an opportunistic fashion, specific food preferences exist. Fissurella nodosa prefers encrusting microalgae and diatoms; F. nimbosa ingests laminar sheets of predominantly brown algae; F. barbadensis feeds on a wide variety of algae but often selects coralline algae of which it ingests entire branches. In zones of overlap, it is hypothesized that competition for food among Fissurella species is minimal due to resource allocation through food preference. Laboratory experiments indicate that all three congeners can ingest a greater variety of algal types than they normally consume in the field. Differential food consumption indicates significantly more elaborate niche par- titioning among tropical intertidal Fissure/la than was previously known. Studies of comparative feeding among congeneric predators may provide insight into the manner by which organisms partition their environment. This partitioning may be achieved through spatial segregation, temporal allocation, or dietary pref- erence. In situations of spatial overlap and temporal feeding similarity, a unique opportunity exists to evaluate the way in which food preferences may help establish an individual's niche. In these circumstances, dietary studies of co-occurring congeners provides information concerning the partitioning of community food resources.

Nielsena,*, Daniel Frassinettib, Klaus Bandela aGeologisch-Pala¨ontologisches Institut und Museum, Universita¨t Hamburg, Bundesstrasse 55, 20146 Hamburg, Germany bMuseo Nacional de Historia Natural, Casilla 787, Santiago, Chile Abstract Species of Vetigastropoda (Fissurellidae, Turbinidae, Trochidae) and one species of Neritimorpha (Neritidae) from the Navidad area, south of Valparaı´so, and the Arauco Peninsula, south of Concepcio´n, are described. Among these, the Fissurellidae comprise Diodora fragilis n. sp., Diodora pupuyana n. sp., two additional unnamed species of Diodora, and a species resembling Fissurellidea. Turbinidae are represented by Cantrainea sp., and Trochidae include Tegula (Chlorostoma) austropacifica n. sp., Tegula (Chlorostoma) chilena n. sp., Tegula (Chlorostoma) matanzensis n. sp., Tegula (Agathistoma) antiqua n. sp., Bathybembix mcleani n. sp., Gibbula poeppigii [Philippi, 1887] n. comb., Diloma miocenica n. sp., Fagnastesia venefica [Philippi, 1887] n. gen. n. comb., Fagnastesia matanzana n. gen. n. sp., Calliostoma mapucherum n. sp., Calliostoma kleppi n. sp., Calliostoma covacevichi n. sp., Astele laevis [Sowerby, 1846] n. comb., and Monilea riorapelensis n. sp. The Neritidae are represented by Nerita (Heminerita) chilensis [Philippi, 1887]. The new genus Fagnastesia is introduced to represent low-spired trochoideans with a sculpture of nodes below the suture, angulated whorls, and a wide umbilicus. This Miocene Chilean fauna includes genera that have lived at the coast and in shallow, relatively warm water or deeper, much cooler water. This composition therefore suggests that many of the Miocene formations along the central Chilean coast consist of displaced sediments.

  • Rocky Shore Snails As Material for Projects (With a Key for Their Identification)
    Field Studies, 10, (2003) 601 - 634 ROCKY SHORE SNAILS AS MATERIAL FOR PROJECTS (WITH A KEY FOR THEIR IDENTIFICATION) J. H. CROTHERS Egypt Cottage, Fair Cross, Washford, Watchet, Somerset TA23 0LY ABSTRACT Rocky sea shores are amongst the best habitats in which to carry out biological field projects. In that habitat, marine snails (prosobranchs) offer the most opportunities for individual investigations, being easy to find, to identify, to count and to measure and beng sufficiently robust to survive the experience. A key is provided for the identification of the larger species and suggestions are made for investigations to exploit selected features of individual species. INTRODUCTION Rocky sea shores offer one of the best habitats for individual or group investigations. Not only is there de facto public access (once you have got there) but also the physical factors that dominate the environment - tides (inundation versus desiccation), waves, heat, cold, light, dark, salinity etc. - change significantly over a few metres in distance. As a bonus, most of the fauna and flora lives out on the open rock surface and patterns of distribution may be clearly visible to the naked eye. Finally, they are amongst the most ‘natural’ of habitats in the British Isles; unless there has been an oil spill, rocky sea shores are unlikely to have been greatly affected by covert human activity. Some 270 species of marine snail (Phylum Mollusca, Class Gastropoda; Sub-Class Prosobranchia) live in the seas around the British Isles (Graham, 1988) and their empty shells may be found on many beaches. Most of these species are small (less than 3 mm long) or live beneath the tidemarks.

Rhodes University. BP94 Grahamstown. 6140 South Africa * These authors contributed equally to this work Abstract: In this paper, we first reviewed the trophic ecology studies carried out on Laminaria digitata beds, at two rocky areas of Northern Brittany (France), Batz Island and Ar Pourven, displaying contrasted ecological conditions. The general trophic structure did not vary between the two sites, with a wide diversity of filter-feeders and predators, and only 14% of grazers. The results of stable isotope analyses allow drawing a simplified model for the food web associated to L. digitata beds. Kelp-derived organic matter is channeled into two distinct trophic pathways, the particle feeding-based and the grazing-based, which are coupled with higher trophic levels. The L. digitata detritic pathway contributes most to the diet of filter-feeders inhabiting sheltered sites.
