ZooKeys 604: 13–30. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.604.8976 Abstract The Atlantidae (shelled heteropods) is a family of microscopic aragonite shelled holoplanktonic gastro- pods with a wide biogeographical distribution in tropical, sub-tropical and temperate waters. The arago- nite shell and surface ocean habitat of the atlantids makes them particularly susceptible to ocean acidifica- tion and ocean warming, and atlantids are likely to be useful indicators of these changes. However, we still lack fundamental information on their taxonomy and biogeography, which is essential for monitoring the effects of a changing ocean.

They are part of the class Gastropoda and located in the order Ophistobranchia. The pteropods are divided into the orders Thecosomata and Gymnosomata. They are small to medium sized animals, ranging from little more than 1mm for example in many members of the Genus Limacina to larger species such as Cymbulia peroni, which reaches a pseudoconch length of 65mm. The mostly shell bearing Thecosomata are known from about 74 recent species worldwide and are divided into five families. The Limacinidae are small gastropods with a sinistrally coiled shell; they can completely retract their body into the shell. Seven recent species of the genus Limacina are known. The Cavoliniidae is the largest of the thecosomate families with about 47 species with quite unusually formed shells.

  • The Space Between: How We Understood, Valued, and Governed the Ocean Through the Process of Marine Science and Emerging Technologies
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Samantha Newton for the degree of Master of Arts in Environmental Arts and Humanities presented on December 11, 2018. Title: The Space Between: How We Understood, Valued, and Governed the Ocean Through the Process of Marine Science and Emerging Technologies Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Jacob Darwin Hamblin Ian Angell, in the New Barbarian Manifesto, wrote “A ‘brave new world’ is being forced upon unsuspecting societies by advances in information technology.” It would seem then, that technological advances happen automatically and have a life of their own. There is a logic to technological advancements that is outside human control, so people tend to react to and accommodate technological change, rather than try to reverse or redirect it. Angell’s idea draws a line between two academic theories—either technology shapes people (technological determinism) or people shape technology (social constructionism). Although other scholars, like Tommy Tranvik and Bruno Latour, propose a hybrid approach to understanding the role of science and technology in contemporary culture. Tranvik argues that merging determinism and constructionism can show a more accurate depiction of reality, and in Aramis, or The Love of Technology Latour illustrates that technology and society co-develop. The combination of these two claims is a good starting point to further understand the powerful process of knowledge production, as it shapes and is shaped by the sciences, emerging technology, resource management, and environmental value. This thesis argues that a reflexive relationship unfolded between the use of pteropods in the sciences, and their role in popular representation. Marine researchers assigned value to pteropods according to their research goals and the technologies available, which constrained the questions researchers asked about pteropods.

Relying Atlantidae on a small (< 14 mm), delicate aragonite shell and living in the upper ocean means that, in common with Atlanta pteropods, atlantids are likely to be affected by imminent ocean changes. Variable shell morphology and Cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 (mtCO1) widespread distributions indicate that the family is more diverse than the 23 currently known species. DNA barcoding Uncovering this diversity is fundamental to determining the distribution of atlantids and to understanding Planktonic gastropods their environmental tolerances.

PREFACE The object of the present Work is to explain the manner in which the Collection of Mollusca and their shells is arranged in the British Museum, and especially to give a short account of the chief characters, derived from the animals, by which they are dis- tributed, and which it is impossible to exhibit in the Collection. The figures referred to after the names of the species, under the genera, are those given in " The Figures of Molluscous Animals, for the Use of Students, by Maria Emma Gray, 3 vols. 8vo, 1850 to 1854 ;" or when the species has been figured since the appear- ance of that work, in the original authority quoted. The concluding Part is in hand, and it is hoped will shortly appear. JOHN EDWARD GRAY. Dec. 10, 1856. ERRATA AND CORRIGENDA. Page 43.
