Location The Balearic Islands, Western Mediterranean. Methods A 2461-bp DNA sequence dataset was generated from one nuclear and two mitochondrial gene fragments in 87 specimens, covering all nominal taxa of the genus Allognathus. Through maximum-likelihood and Bayesian phylogenetic methods along with a Bayesian molecular clock, we examined the evolutionary history of the group. Ancestral distribution ranges were estimated for divergence events across the tree using a Bayesian approach. We also used genetic species-delimitation models to determine the taxonomy of Allognathus. Results We provided the first molecular phylogeny of Allognathus, a genus endemic to the Balearic Islands. The origin of the genus in the Balearic Islands was dated to the middle Miocene based on palaeogeographical events in the Western Mediterranean. During the late Miocene and Pliocene, several diversi- fication events occurred within the archipelago. The ancestral range of Allogna- thus was reconstructed as the north-eastern Tramuntana Mountains of Mallorca.

E-18071, Granada, Spain Received 14 September 2005; received in revised form 25 November 2005; accepted 21 February 2006 Available online 11 April 2006 Abstract Iberus gualtieranus gualtieranus is an arid-dwelling land snail that needs to use karstic fissures as refuge in order to survive in arid environments. Karstic fissures are primarily on vertical rocky walls. Because displacement is costly to terrestrial gastropods, it is predictable that this snail will move on vertical substrates near its refuges. However, this species eats primarily phanerogam plants, which are placed on bare soil in horizontal surfaces. Thus, it is also predictable that this snail will move on horizontal substrates far of its refuges. In the present study, this contradiction is examined. Results show that this snail moves far of its refuges to forage on horizontal substrates, while is sheltered in fissures on vertical and rocky surfaces. This suggests that the need of a refuge for survive imposes on this species a habitat use based in the alternation of two microhabitats: vertical and rocky substratum when inactive, and horizontal and bare soil when active. r 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

    VENUS 66 (3-4): 127-145, 2008 Systematic Revision of the Subgenus Luchuhadra (Pulmonata: Camaenidae: Satsuma) Occurring in the Central Ryukyu Archipelago Yuichi Kameda* and Makoto Kato Graduate School of Human and Environmental Studies, Kyoto University, Yoshida-Nihonmatsu- cho, Sakyo, Kyoto 606-8501, Japan;* [email protected] Abstract: Satsuma (Luchuhadra) largillierti is an arboreal land snail endemic to Okinawa Island, Japan, and its extensive geographic variation in shell morphology has long caused taxonomic confusion. A recent molecular phylogenetic study demonstrated that S. largillierti and the two species endemic to Okinoerabu Island, S. erabuensis and S. sooi, are more correctly re-organized into two species that are anatomically and genetically distinct. To confirm the taxonomic status and nomenclature of these species, we examined the available type materials and corresponding descriptions. We suggest that the above species be treated as S. eucosmia and S. largillierti, that S. sooi become a synonym of S. largillierti, and that S. erabuensis is reduced to a subspecies of S. eucosmia. We also present revised morphological descriptions of the four Luchuhadra species that range from Iheya Island off Okinawa Island to the Miyako Islands, which are here confirmed as distinct based on both morphological and molecular data. Keywords: discriminant analysis, genital morphology, Satsuma amanoi, Satsuma hemihelvus, Satsuma iheyaensis, Satsuma omoro Introduction The subgenus Luchuhadra (Camaenidae: Satsuma) is an arboreal group of land snails endemic to the middle Ryukyu Archipelago in the southwestern part of Japan. Luchuhadra currently consists of 11 extant species (Minato, 1988), which are regarded as having largely distinct morphologies (Minato, 1976, 1980, 1982a, 1984, 1987; Azuma, 2000).

Many studies focus on the functional drivers which have been regarded as a major force in shell evolution. There is, however, a scarcity in studies that aim at understanding shell form evolution with respect to their ontogeny. Hence, we investigated the evolution of shell form in the micro-landsnail genus Plectostoma (Diplommatinidae) from the viewpoint of shell ontogeny. We examined the aperture ontogeny profiles that describe how aperture form and growth trajectory change along the shell ontogeny, and how the aperture ontogeny profiles relate to the observed shell forms.

  • The Importance of Moisture in the Activity Patterns of the Arid-Dwelling Land Snail Iberus Gualtieranus
    THE IMPORTANCE OF MOISTURE IN THE ACTIVITY PATTERNS OF THE ARID-DWELLING LAND SNAIL IBERUS GUALTIERANUS Gregorio Moreno-Rueda* Estación Experimental de Zonas Áridas (CSIC), La Cañada de San Urbano, Ctra. Sacramento s/n, 04120, Almería, Spain ABSTRACT Weather is one of the prime determinants of activity patterns in snails. Given that snails are hydrophilic and ectothermic, they may be active only when meteorological conditions provide a relatively warm and moist environment. Consequently, both temperature and moisture are among the main factors governing the activity of snails and slugs. However, the relative importance of temperature and moisture varies geographically. For example, in arid Mediterranean environments, moisture may strongly limit activity, while temperature may not. In this study, I examine the activity patterns of the land snail Iberus gualtieranus in an arid environment in SE Spain. This snail showed nocturnal activity, being rarely found during the day, and was active in autumn and winter, but not during spring and summer. Temperature was correlated with the activity of this snail, but this correlation disappeared on controlling for moisture (correlated with temperature). Thus, the effect of temperature on activity was mediated by its effect on moisture. Moisture, therefore, was the most important determinant of activity, explaining 18.4% of variance in number of active individuals. When season, daytime, temperature, and moisture were considered in a full model, moisture explained the seasonal variation in activity, but not the entire daytime variation. That is, after moisture was controlled for, a portion of variance in circadian activity remained explained only by daytime (night vs. day). These results support that, in an arid environment, moisture is the main factor determining activity, especially seasonal activity.
