Thus, to describe possible phenotypic diversity, a total of 90 venerid bivalves (30 specimens for each species) were photographed on their right valves. Canonical variate analysis (CVA), multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), principal component analysis (PCA) and Kruskal-Wallis tests showed significant difference between species based on the Fourier coefficients. This study showed significant variations in the shape of the right external valve of the shell. CVA plot generated show separation of populations examined indicating significant difference between groups. Observed differences in the external shell shapes of different venerid bivalve species were based in the umbo, anterior margin, shell width, length depth and anterior margin depression. Results suggest hypothesized variable factors behind the disparity of the external shell shape which include habitat differences, environment and genotype interactions. Herewith, the use of Elliptic Fourier (EF) analysis proved to be useful in effective quantification of inter-specific variation between species.

This process aims to achieve the Good Environmental Status (GES) through the elaborated 11 Ecological Objectives and their respective common indicators. Since 2008, Contracting Parties to the Barcelona Convention have adopted the EcAp and agreed on a roadmap for its implementation. First phases of the EcAp process led to the accomplishment of 5 steps of the scheduled 7-steps process such as: 1) Definition of an Ecological Vision for the Mediterranean; 2) Setting common Mediterranean strategic goals; 3) Identification of an important ecosystem properties and assessment of ecological status and pressures; 4) Development of a set of ecological objectives corresponding to the Vision and strategic goals; and 5) Derivation of operational objectives with indicators and target levels.

Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia Received 22 October 2018; accepted 26 April 2019 Available online 16 May 2019 KEYWORDS Summary The paper presents preliminary results of monitoring the population of the bivalve Population; Chamelea gallina, which is the main source of biogenic carbonates for the Anapa bay bar beaches Biomass; (the Black Sea). It is shown that by 2017, the biomass of the clams decreased more than twice compared to 2010, but began to increase in 2018. The average sizes of C. gallina are clearly Shell length; Age; divided in terms “year” — “section” — “age”. At the same time, interannual variations of the average size are very strong in all age groups. The average shell length of C. gallina significantly Rapana venosa; increased in 2018 compared to 2016, and especially — to 2017. This may be caused by the Black Sea population decline of the predator Rapana venosa feeding on clams. Geographic differences in the shell length between sections are not directly related to the distribution of biogenic elements (nitrogen and phosphorus). The differences in longevity and shell size between C. gallina from the Anapa region and distant populations from the other parts of the distribution area are likely related to its significant negative correlation with the growth rate, which in turn negatively correlates with latitude.

Lecce-Monteroni 73100 Lecce RESEARCH ARTICLE ITALY Abstract 1 - Lagoons are ecotones between freshwater, marine and terrestrial biotopes, characterized by internal ecosystem heterogeneity, due to patchy spatial and temporal distribution of biotic and abiotic components, and inter-ecosystem heterogeneity, due to the various terrestrial-freshwater and freshwater-marine interfaces. 2 - Here, we carried out an analysis of environmental heterogeneity and benthic macro-invertebrate guilds in a sample of 26 Italian lagoons based on literature produced over a 25 year period.. 3 - In all, 944 taxonomic units, belonging to 13 phyla, 106 orders and 343 families, were recorded. Most species had a very restricted geographic distribution range. 75% of the macroinvertebrate taxa were observed in less than three of the twenty-six lagoons considered. 4 - Similarity among macroinvertebrate guilds in lagoon ecosystems was remarkably low, ranging from 10.5%±7.5% to 34.2%±14.4% depending on the level of taxonomic resolution. 5 - Taxonomic heterogeneity was due to both differences in species richness and to differences in species composition: width of seaward outlet, lagoon surface area and water salinity were the most important factors affecting species richness, together accounting for up to 75% of observed inter-lagoon heterogeneity, while distance between lagoons was the most significant factor affecting similarity of species composition.

    * SYNOPSIS OF thp: family venerid.t^ and of the NORTH AMERICAN RECENT SPECIES. B}^ WiLiJAM Hkai;ky Dall, Honontrji ('iirator, Division of Mollnsks. This synopsis is one of a series of similar summaries of the families of bivalve mollusks which have been prepared by the writer in the course of a revision of our Peleeypod fauna in the light of th(^ material accumulated in the collections of the United States National Museum. While the lists of species are made as complete as possible, for the coasts of the United States, the list of those ascribed to the Antilles, Central and South America, is pro])ably subject to considerable addi- tions when the fauna of these regions is better known and the litera- ture more thoroughly sifted. No claim of completeness is therefore made for this portion of the work, except when so expressly stated. So many of the southern forms extend to the verge of our territory that it was thought well to include those known to exist in the vicinity when it could l)e done without too greatly increasing the labor involved in the known North American list.
