  • Benthic Invertebrate Community Monitoring and Indicator Development for Barnegat Bay-Little Egg Harbor Estuary
    July 15, 2013 Final Report Project SR12-002: Benthic Invertebrate Community Monitoring and Indicator Development for Barnegat Bay-Little Egg Harbor Estuary Gary L. Taghon, Rutgers University, Project Manager [email protected] Judith P. Grassle, Rutgers University, Co-Manager [email protected] Charlotte M. Fuller, Rutgers University, Co-Manager [email protected] Rosemarie F. Petrecca, Rutgers University, Co-Manager and Quality Assurance Officer [email protected] Patricia Ramey, Senckenberg Research Institute and Natural History Museum, Frankfurt Germany, Co-Manager [email protected] Thomas Belton, NJDEP Project Manager and NJDEP Research Coordinator [email protected] Marc Ferko, NJDEP Quality Assurance Officer [email protected] Bob Schuster, NJDEP Bureau of Marine Water Monitoring [email protected] Introduction The Barnegat Bay ecosystem is potentially under stress from human impacts, which have increased over the past several decades. Benthic macroinvertebrates are commonly included in studies to monitor the effects of human and natural stresses on marine and estuarine ecosystems. There are several reasons for this. Macroinvertebrates (here defined as animals retained on a 0.5-mm mesh sieve) are abundant in most coastal and estuarine sediments, typically on the order of 103 to 104 per meter squared. Benthic communities are typically composed of many taxa from different phyla, and quantitative measures of community diversity (e.g., Rosenberg et al. 2004) and the relative abundance of animals with different feeding behaviors (e.g., Weisberg et al. 1997, Pelletier et al. 2010), can be used to evaluate ecosystem health. Because most benthic invertebrates are sedentary as adults, they function as integrators, over periods of months to years, of the properties of their environment.

  • The Eye Fluke Philophthalmus Hegeneri (Digenea: Philophthalmidae)
    Kuwait J. Sci. Eng. 3171) pp. 119-133, 2004 The eye ¯uke Philophthalmus hegeneri Digenea: Philophthalmidae) in Kuwait Bay J. ABDUL-SALAM, B. S. SREELATHA AND H. ASHKANANI Department of Biological Sciences, Kuwait University, P. O. Box 5969, Safat, Kuwait 13060 ABSTRACT The eye ¯uke Philophthalmus hegeneri Penner and Fried, 1963 was reared from cercariae developing in the marine snail Cerithium scabridum in Kuwait Bay. Infected snails released megalurous cercariae which readily encysted in characteristically ¯ask-shaped cysts. Adult ¯ukes were recovered from the ocular orbit of experimentally infected domestic ducklings inoculated with excysted metacercariae. The adult and larval stages of the ¯uke are described and compared with those of the other marine-acquired Philophthalmus species. The metacercaria of the Kuwaiti isolate of P. hegeneri diers from those of an American isolate from Batillaria minima in the Gulf of Mexico in the process of encystment, and metacercarial cyst shape resembles those of P. larsoni from a congeneric snail, C. muscarum, from Florida, suggesting a close relationship. The present record signi®cantly extends the known geographical range of P. hegeneri and implicates a new intermediate host. Keywords: Digenea; Metacercaria; Philophthalmus hegeneri; Cerithium scabridum; Kuwait Bay. INTRODUCTION Members of the genus Philophthalmus Loose, 1899 7Philophthalmidae Travassos, 1918) are widely distributed eye ¯ukes of aquatic birds. The life cycle of Philophthalmus has been established through studies on species utilizing freshwater or marine snails as intermediate host 7Fisher & West 1958, Penner & Fried 1963, Howell & Bearup 1967, McMillan & Macy 1972, Dronen & Penner 1975, Radev et al. 2000). Although more than 36 Philophthalmus species have been reported, only P.

  • Archaeomalacological Data and Paleoenvironmental
    ARCHAEOMALACOLOGICAL DATA AND PALEOENVIRONMENTAL RECONSTRUCTION AT THE JUPITER INLET I SITE (8PB34A), SOUTHEAST FLORIDA by Jennifer Green A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of The Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Florida Atlantic University Boca Raton, FL May 2016 Copyright 2016 by Jennifer Green ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis has been a journey of growth and exploration. There are several people who deserve recognition for my path of success. First, and foremost, I could have never gotten to where I am without the love and never-ending support of my parents. My dad initially stimulated my interest in archaeology as a kid. He took me to see my first site on Captiva Island during a vacation, and since then I was hooked. In addition, my mom has always been there to listen, and provide compassion and support in any way needed. My thesis advisor Dr. Arlene Fradkin deserves special recognition. If not for her agreeing to take me on as a Master’s student, I may have never gotten the opportunity to grow as a scholar. Her meticulous zooarchaeological practices have imprinted on me and have provided the baseline for all of my future endeavors. The time she has spent side- by-side with me proof-reading all of my documents has granted me several awards and grants throughout my studies, for which I am extremely thankful. Dr. Clifford Brown is one of the most brilliant men I know and his comprehensive knowledge of archaeological science will always amaze me.

  • Molluschi Tonna Galea (Linnaeus , 1758) Regno Animali Fam. Tonnidae
    MOLLUSCHI Tonna galea (Linnaeus , 1758) regno animali fam. Tonnidae Fonte immagine foto Apnea World Data la taglia, questo mollusco non passa certo inosservato, con i 13-20 centimetri di diametro della sua conchiglia, che possono, negli esemplari eccezionalmente grandi, essere ampiamente superati. Alla grandezza della conchiglia non corrisponde però un grande peso della stessa, perché il guscio degli esemplari di questa specie è molto sottile, anche se piuttosto robusto, e quindi molto più leggero rispetto a quello di altri molluschi di simile taglia. La conchiglia mostra una bocca emisferica o ovale e ampia, con il margine segnato da rilievi corrispondenti a fasce spirali, ed un colore chiaro, biancastro con bande gialle o marroncino, talvolta in così gran numero da coprire la tonalità biancastra di fondo. Le piccole bande si sviluppano nel senso delle spire della conchiglia. Talvolta, invece, la tonalità di base può essere più scura, ossia giallastra, marroncino o anche rosata, e le bande, di conseguenza, appaiono più scure o meno evidenti rispetto al colore di fondo. La forma del guscio è bombata e rigata, a causa delle numerose coste o fasce, rilevate e appiattite all’apice, che si sviluppano nel senso delle spire della conchiglia. Fonte immagine Sub Rimini Gian Neri - www.biologiamarina.org Nelle conchiglie sviluppate si possono contare circa una ventina di fasce spirali in corrispondenza dei giri più grossi. Il mollusco è molto grande ed ha una livrea screziata con colore di base bianco o biancastro e numerose screziature irregolari di colore scuro, generalmente marroni o nerastre. Il piede è potente ed usato dall’animale per muoversi sui fondali sabbiosi, sui quali predilige spostarsi alla ricerca di prede.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PATTERNS IN
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: PATTERNS IN DIVERSITY AND DISTRIBUTION OF BENTHIC MOLLUSCS ALONG A DEPTH GRADIENT IN THE BAHAMAS Michael Joseph Dowgiallo, Doctor of Philosophy, 2004 Dissertation directed by: Professor Marjorie L. Reaka-Kudla Department of Biology, UMCP Species richness and abundance of benthic bivalve and gastropod molluscs was determined over a depth gradient of 5 - 244 m at Lee Stocking Island, Bahamas by deploying replicate benthic collectors at five sites at 5 m, 14 m, 46 m, 153 m, and 244 m for six months beginning in December 1993. A total of 773 individual molluscs comprising at least 72 taxa were retrieved from the collectors. Analysis of the molluscan fauna that colonized the collectors showed overwhelmingly higher abundance and diversity at the 5 m, 14 m, and 46 m sites as compared to the deeper sites at 153 m and 244 m. Irradiance, temperature, and habitat heterogeneity all declined with depth, coincident with declines in the abundance and diversity of the molluscs. Herbivorous modes of feeding predominated (52%) and carnivorous modes of feeding were common (44%) over the range of depths studied at Lee Stocking Island, but mode of feeding did not change significantly over depth. One bivalve and one gastropod species showed a significant decline in body size with increasing depth. Analysis of data for 960 species of gastropod molluscs from the Western Atlantic Gastropod Database of the Academy of Natural Sciences (ANS) that have ranges including the Bahamas showed a positive correlation between body size of species of gastropods and their geographic ranges. There was also a positive correlation between depth range and the size of the geographic range.

  • CONE SHELLS - CONIDAE MNHN Koumac 2018
    Living Seashells of the Tropical Indo-Pacific Photographic guide with 1500+ species covered Andrey Ryanskiy INTRODUCTION, COPYRIGHT, ACKNOWLEDGMENTS INTRODUCTION Seashell or sea shells are the hard exoskeleton of mollusks such as snails, clams, chitons. For most people, acquaintance with mollusks began with empty shells. These shells often delight the eye with a variety of shapes and colors. Conchology studies the mollusk shells and this science dates back to the 17th century. However, modern science - malacology is the study of mollusks as whole organisms. Today more and more people are interacting with ocean - divers, snorkelers, beach goers - all of them often find in the seas not empty shells, but live mollusks - living shells, whose appearance is significantly different from museum specimens. This book serves as a tool for identifying such animals. The book covers the region from the Red Sea to Hawaii, Marshall Islands and Guam. Inside the book: • Photographs of 1500+ species, including one hundred cowries (Cypraeidae) and more than one hundred twenty allied cowries (Ovulidae) of the region; • Live photo of hundreds of species have never before appeared in field guides or popular books; • Convenient pictorial guide at the beginning and index at the end of the book ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The significant part of photographs in this book were made by Jeanette Johnson and Scott Johnson during the decades of diving and exploring the beautiful reefs of Indo-Pacific from Indonesia and Philippines to Hawaii and Solomons. They provided to readers not only the great photos but also in-depth knowledge of the fascinating world of living seashells. Sincere thanks to Philippe Bouchet, National Museum of Natural History (Paris), for inviting the author to participate in the La Planete Revisitee expedition program and permission to use some of the NMNH photos.
