  • CAN the ENVIRONMENT INDUCE INTRA-VARIETY CHANGES of Helix Pomatia CONCHOLOGICAL FEATURES?
    Analele Universităţii din Oradea - Fascicula Biologie Tom. XVIII, Issue: 2, 2011, pp. 140-145 CAN THE ENVIRONMENT INDUCE INTRA-VARIETY CHANGES OF Helix pomatia CONCHOLOGICAL FEATURES?

Abstract. Inter- and intra-specific genetically and phenotypically determined variations in snail morphological features are well documented. The same may be true even within the same species variety. The snails (Helix pomatia var. Banatica) were collected from two distinct sites, placed 100 km one from another and characterized by different climatic conditions (rainfall level, altitude, annual average temperature, and subtype of temperate climate): Oraviţa and Timişoara area. Using bi - and tridimensional data processing, statistical, and biochemical analyses we assessed the cumulated actions of environmental factors on intra - variety changes of shell morphological features in relation to origin area. Formula proposed for shell tri-dimensional processing (shell volume) provided a reliable and faster method to assess variations among shell height, width, and depth than the multiple analyses of each feature apart. Similarly, aperture bi-dimensional processing (aperture area) successfully replaced the separated statistical analyses of aperture height and depth.

  • Life Cycles of Clausiliids of Poland – Knowns and Unknowns
    A N N A L E S Z O O L O G I C I (Warszawa), 2008, 58(4): 857-880 LIFE CYCLES OF CLAUSILIIDS OF POLAND – KNOWNS AND UNKNOWNS TOMASZ K. MALTZ1 and ANNA SULIKOWSKA-DROZD2 1Museum of Natural History, Wrocław University, Sienkiewicza 21, 50-335 Wrocław, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Invertebrate Zoology and Hydrobiology, University of Łódź, Banacha 12/16, 90-237 Łódź, Poland; e-mail: [email protected] Abstract.— Among the 24 native clausiliids, 15 were subject to laboratory observations. Eleven of them were found to be oviparous, three – egg retainers and one – ovoviviparous. Batches, containing most often one to about a dozen of partly calcified, ellipsoidal or spherical eggs, appeared usually in the spring and autumn (in non-hibernating individuals throughout the year). Probably the main factors determining the onset of reproduction are humidity and temperature while the photoperiod has no significant effect. The incubation period is ca. two weeks (room temperature), the hatching is synchronous or asynchronous. Cases of intra-batch and inter-batch cannibalism were observed. The minimum time from hatching/birth till adult size is ca. 3–9 months and after further 5–8 months the snails start producing eggs/babies. Clausiliids are iteroparous. Anatomical studies on the development of the reproductive system show that just before lip completion the reproductive system is still incompletely developed. Penis, epiphallus and spermatheca develop within the first month after growth completion (which would indicate attainment of ability to copulate), and the reproductive system becomes wholly mature only after a few months.

  • Life Cycle and Population Dynamics of Helicodonta Obvoluta (O. F. Müller, 1774) (Gastropoda: Pulmonata: Helicidae)
    Vol. 11(3/4): 63–88 LIFE CYCLE AND POPULATION DYNAMICS OF HELICODONTA OBVOLUTA (O. F. MÜLLER, 1774) (GASTROPODA: PULMONATA: HELICIDAE) TOMASZ KRZYSZTOF MALTZ Museum of Natural History, Wroc³aw University, Sienkiewicza 21, 50-335 Wroc³aw, Poland (e-mail: [email protected]) ABSTRACT: Lifecycleof Helicodonta obvoluta (O. F. Müll.) was studied in the field and in laboratory. Mating lasts 2–3 hrs and includes: meeting of the partners, recognition, courtship dance, copulation, resting phase and parting. No spermatophores were observed upon dissection of a total of 90 adult individuals which seems to indicatethat H. obvoluta does not produce them. The egg-laying snail embeds anterior part of its body 4–6 mm deep in rotting timber. The egg-laying lasts from about a dozen hours to two days. Freshly laid eggs are white, calcified, slightly translucent and get opaque in a few days. They are slightly oval, of 2.10–2.85 mm major and 2.00–2.60 mm minor diameter. In laboratory, eggs are laid in spring (March-June) and autumn (August-November), in the field, the egg-laying periods are somewhat shorter (April-beginning of June, end of August-beginning of October). Most laboratory snails laid eggs only once in their lifetime, the maximum number of egg-laying periods was four. The percentage of hatching eggs in laboratory is ca. 59%. The number of eggs per clutch ranges from 9 to 27. The incubation period ranges from 14 to 31 days, and is shorter for spring (14–18 days) compared to autumn (19–23 days) clutches.

  • Latitudinal Variation of Body Size in Land Snail Populations and Communities Jeffrey C
    chapter two Latitudinal Variation of Body Size in Land Snail Populations and Communities Jeffrey C. Nekola, Gary M. Barker, Robert A. D. Cameron, and Beata M. Pokryszko ergmann’s rule states the tendency for body size to positively cor- Brelate with latitude within groups of closely related animals (Berg- mann 1847; Rensch 1938; Mayr 1956; James 1970). While there has been much discussion about the appropriate taxonomic groups and scales where this pattern is expected to operate, there is little question that it applies to most endothermic vertebrates (e.g., Blackburn et al. 1999). However, not only are the underlying mechanisms still the subject of considerable debate (Ashton et al. 2000), but it is also less clear if this pattern should be expected for ectothermic invertebrates. This is be- cause while larger ectothermic bodies experience lowered heat loss rates due to smaller surface-to-volume ratios, they will also experience corre- spondingly lower heat absorption rates (Cushman et al. 1993). It should thus not be surprising that general body size vs. latitude re- lationships have not been forthcoming for these species. While positive body size–latitude relationships have been identifi ed in ants (Cushman et al. 1993; Kaspari and Vargo 1995), marine isopods (Poulin 1995b), copepods (Poulin 1995a), amphipods (Poulin and Hamilton 1995), and monogoneans (Poulin 1996), marine bivalves tend to have largest body sizes at midlatitudes (Roy and Martien 2001). While Northern Hemi- sphere butterfl ies possess positive body size correlations with increasing latitude, Southern Hemisphere taxa demonstrate a negative relationship (Barlow 1994; Hawkins and Lawton 1995).

    HELIX LUTESCENS ROSSMÄSSLER, 1837 (GASTROPODA: PULMONATA: HELICIDAE) – ITS STRUCTURE, BIOLOGY AND ECOLOGY EL¯BIETA KORALEWSKA-BATURA Department of General Zoology, Institute of Environmental Sciences, Adam Mickiewicz University, Fredry 10, 61-701 Poznañ, Poland ABSTRACT: Helix lutescens Rossmässler, 1837 is a xerothermophilous species. It reaches its NW distribution bor- der in SE Poland. The studies, carried out in 1990–1997, involved the distribution of H. lutescens in Poland, its biology and ecology. Besides, shell structure and internal organs were studied, with special reference to differ- ences between H. lutescens and the related H. pomatia L. In H. lutescens the shell is roundish-conical, of a yellow- ish-white colour and much smaller than that of H. pomatia. The body is greyish and covered with numerous wrinkles and grooves; fine, whitish granules are located in the grooves, especially in those that form two deli- cate light streaks along the darker back of the animal; these streaks are characteristic of the species. The repro- ductive system of H. lutescens is of a structure similar to that in H. pomatia, but the duct of the gametolythic gland never bears a diverticle while flagellum, epiphallus and penis in adults are pigmented. The diurnal activ- ity of H. lutescens varies seasonally, depending on environmental factors (air temperature and relative humid- ity in ground layer, and substratum humidity – dew point). The reproductive activity reaches its peak in May and June. Courtship and copulation are in accordance with the typical helicid pattern. The copulation lasts ca. 15 mins, and the entire mating process takes over 3 hrs. Eggs are laid in nests dug in the soil, the mean number of eggs per nest being 35.
