Belgium. SUMMARY: The gastropod family Hipponicidae comprises widely distributed but poorly known sedentary species. On the beach-rock of the coral reefs of Laing Island (Papua New Guinea) live rich populations of several gastropod Turbo species of which many specimens have attached to their shell a hipponicid gastropod attributed to a new species, Antisabia juliae. This new species, described in this paper, appears to have adapted its mode of life on live turbinids in several ways result- ing in morphological changes (thin basal plate loosely adherent to the supporting shell, functional eyes, very long snout, functional radula, small osphradium) and ethological changes (foraging behaviour: it appears to feed on the epiphytic com- munity growing on the host, in the vicinity of the “host” shell). Except for these characteristics, the mode of life appears quite similar to that of other hipponicid species with few big females surrounded by several much smaller males. Development occurs within the egg mass inside the female shell and a few young snails escape at the crawling stage. Key words: Mollusca, Gastropoda, ecology, Hipponicidae, Papua New Guinea, Indopacific. RESUMEN: BIOLOGÍA Y DESCRIPCIÓN DE ANTISABIA JULIAE SP.

Teknika Selatan, Sekip Utara, Yogyakarta 55281 * Corresponding author, email: [email protected] Submitted: 04 December 2020; Accepted: 07 June 2021; Published online: 15 July 2021 ABSTRACT Turbo snails have important roles in the ecosystem as prey for predators, and decomposition of dead objects, and it is starting to decrease. This is quite worrying so that conservation efforts must be carried out immediately. Turbo snail species found in Sepanjang Beach, Gunungkidul are Turbo crassus and Turbo setosus. The aims of this study were to determine food preferences, the relationship between body size and fecundity, analyze egg quality based on proximate levels of the two species, and meat proximate of T. crassus and T. setosus. Samples were taken from Sepanjang Beach, Gunungkidul. Food preference was observed using the sedgwick rafter, fecundity was counted using the gravimetric method. Moisture content, protein content, fat content, ash, and carbohydrate content of both species eggs and meat were determined with proximate analysis at the UGM Central Laboratory for Food and Nutrition Studies. The results showed that the dominant food for T. setosus was Phaeophyta, whereas the dominant food for T. crassus was Microcoleus sp. and Phaeophyta. The fecundity of both Turbo species is exponentially positively correlated with all body sizes. -

MASTALLER Ruhr-Universität Bochum, Lehrstuhl für Spez. Zoologie Bochum, West-Germany With one text-figure and one table ABSTRACT This study summarizes field observations and collections of the molluscan fauna of the coastal and offshore reefs in the area of Port Sudan, Central Red Sea. In spite of the fact that some families of this group were described from several areas of the Red Sea, there exists only little information on the entire faunal composition of this region. 282 species of Amphineura, Gastropoda, and Bivalvia, collected and studied in nine localities are listed according to their habitats. Moreover, descriptions of the prominent members of typical molluscan assemblages are given for 13 habitats and microhabitats which differ in their morphological structures and in their hydrographic and physiographic conditions. Emphasis is placed on further studies on the trophic interactions within certain habitats. INTRODUCTION Although there is a considerable number of taxonomie literature on some molluscan families in the Indo-West-Padfic (Abbott, i960; Burgess, 1970; Cernohorsky, 1967; Habe, 1964; Kira, 1962; Powell, 1964; Rosewater, 1965), there is comparatively scarce information for the Red Sea. After the exten• sive surveys and descriptions of Issel, 1869, Hall & Standen, 1907, Jickeli, 1874, Shopland, 1902, and Sturany, 1901, 1903, in more recent times only a few studies were published on the entire faunal composition of molluscs in this region. Most of these publications deal with certain families, sometimes they also give information about their zoogeographical distribution in the Red Sea: Thus the cypraeids seem to yield the best information on their occurrence throughout the region (Foin, 1972; Mienis, 1971b; O'Malley, 1971; Schilder, 1965). -

No significant differences were found in mean oocyte sizes either between different sections in an ovary or between ovaries with different gonad bulk indices (GI: percentage gonad area to the total cross- sectional area of the gonad-digestive gland) when GI exceeded 50%. The number of oocytes per unit weight was significantly different among different portions in an ovary, and this could be attributed to the difference in the specific gravity of oocytes. The maximum number of oocytes in an ovary was estimated between 1.279 •~ 106 and 7.523 •~ 106 for females of 12.5-19.3 cm in shell width. The main spawning season was August-November in Tokunoshima I, and July-November in the Yaeyama Island Group. Mature individuals were found during all seasons in both localities. The relationship between the spawning activity and the lunar cycle was examined for T. marmoratus from Tokunoshima I., but the relationship was not found.

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. -
Mollusca of New Caledonia
Plate 12 Mollusca of New Caledonia Virginie HEROS, Pierre LOZOUET, Philippe MAESTRATI, Rudo von COSEL, Delphine BRABANT, Philippe BOUCHET Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Paris [email protected] The first record of a land mollusc (Placostyllls fibratus (Martyn, 1789» from New Caledonia can unequivocally be traced to the voyage of Cook that discovered the island in 1774. By contrast, the marine molluscs of New Caledonia ironically remained out of reach to European natural history cabinets until well jnto the 19th century. New Caledonia remained untouched by the circum navigating expeditions of the 1830-1840s onboard, e.g., the Astrolabe, the Zilie or the Uranie. Seashells may have been collected in New Caledonia by whalers and other merchants in search of sandalwood or beche-de-mer, and then traded, but by the time they reached European conchologists, all indication of their geographical origin had faded away. It is impossible to tell whether Indo-West Pacific species originally described from localities such as «Mers du Sud» or «Southern Seas» were originally collected in, e.g., Fiji, Tahiti, Australia or New Caledonia. However, even if New Caledonian shells may have arrived on the European market or in cabinets, it must have been in very small amount, as such an emblematic species of the New Caledonia molluscan fauna as Nalltilus maeromphalus was not named until 1859. In fact, it was not until Xavier Montrouzier set foot in New Caledonia that the island was placed on the map of marine conchology. From there on, three major periods can be recognized in the history of New Caledonia marine malacology. -
The Biodiversity of Marine Gastropods of Thailand in the Late Decade
Malaysian Journal of Science 32 (SCS Sp Issue) : 47-64 (2013) The Biodiversity of Marine Gastropods of Thailand in the Late Decade. Kitithorn Sanpanich1*and Teerapong Duangdee2 1Institute of Marine Science, Burapha University, Tambon Saensook, Amphur Moengchonburi, Chonburi, 20131 Thailand. 2Department of Marine Science, Faculty of Fisheries, Kasetsart University, Bangkok, 10900 Thailand. *[email protected] (Corresponding author) ABSTRACT This study is mainly based on the collection of marine gastropods along the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand which had been carried out along the coastline in 55 sites from the province of Chonburi to Trad during April 2005 – December 2009. As many habitats as possible were examined at each sites from sandy beaches, muddy sand, rocky shore, and coral reefs. A total of 306 species of gastropods were collected and had been classifi ed in53families 116genera.The most widespread species were Planaxis sulcatus (Planaxidae) and Polinices mammilla (Naticidae) found in 37 sites, followed by Echinolittorina malaccana (Littorinidae) in 35 sites. The highest diversity was 187 species in Trat whereas Koh Mark had the most abundance in this area. The lowest diversity was in Chanthaburi, 88 species, whereas Koh Nomsoa was the most abundant site.The diversity of gastropods in Chonburi was 152 species, whereas Koh Samaesarn and Koh Juang were the most abundant site. 137 species had been found in Rayong and Koh Munnai was the most abundant site. The data from this study had been compared with the resent studies in the late decade from the west coast of the Gulf of Thailand and Andaman Sea.The total gastropods in the late decade were 454 species 205 genera 69 families.
