  • The Genera Moelleria Jeffreys, 1865, and Spiromoelleria Gen. Nov. in the North Pacific, with Description of a New Species of Spiromoelleria (Gastropoda: Turbinidae)
    THE VELIGER © CMS, Inc., 1984 The Veliger 27(2):219-226 (October 5, 1984) The Genera Moelleria Jeffreys, 1865, and Spiromoelleria gen. nov. in the North Pacific, with Description of a New Species of Spiromoelleria (Gastropoda: Turbinidae) by RAE BAXTER Box 96, Bethel, Alaska 99559 AND JAMES H. McLEAN Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, Los Angeles, California 90007 Abstract. Two genera of minute turbinid gastropods in the subfamily Homalopomatinae, Moelleria Jeffreys, 1865, and Spiromoelleria gen. nov., are here called the Moelleria group. These genera differ from other homalopomatine genera in having a calcareous operculum with a multispiral pattern on its exterior surface, having the operculum unable to retract deeper than flush with the apertural margin, and lacking the apertural denticle of Homalopoma and related genera. Moelleria is monotypic for M. costulata (Moller, 1842), which has a circumboreal, offshore distribution. It has coalescing axial sculp­ ture of a kind unknown in other living trochacean genera. Spiral sculpture is characteristic of only two shallow-water North Pacific species in the new genus Spiromoelleria: S. quadrae (Dall, 1897), the type species, and S. kachemakensis spec. nov. Moelleria drusiana Dall, 1919, is synonymized with S. quadrae. The three species are sympatric in the Gulf of Alaska. and species have already been included in a checklist of INTRODUCTION the mollusks of Alaska (BAXTER, 1983); they are first Two SPECIES until now assigned to Moelleria Jeffreys, validated here. 1865, have major differences in sculpture, although these Collections examined include those of Rae Baxter (RB), differences have not previously been thought to merit ge­ the University of Alaska, Fairbanks (UAF), the Califor­ neric distinction.

  • 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.

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.

    SMALL SHELLS FROM DREDGINGS OFF THE SOUTHEAST COAST OF THE UNITED STATES BY THE UNITED STATES FISHERIES STEAMER "ALBATROSS" IN 1885 AND 1886 By William H. Dall Honorary Curator of Mollusks, United States National Museum In 1885 the United States Fisheries steamer Albatross made a series of dredgings along the southeastern coast of the United States, One of the stations, No. 2415, was off the coast of Georgia in north lati- tude 30° 44', and west longitude 79° 26', with a depth of 440 fath- oms (948 meters), in broken coral, coarse sand, and broken shell, bottom temperature 45.6° F. (7.5° C). The following year a similar dredging was made off Fernandina, Fla., at station 2668, in north latitude 30° 58' and west longitude 79° 38', with a depth of 294 fathoms (678 meters) in gray sand and broken coral, bottom temperature 46.3° F. (8.2° C). The material obtained was sifted, the larger shells taken out and the comparatively fine residue retained for its content of minute shells, foraminifera, etc. This residue was chiefly composed of frag- ments of the test of barnacles and echinoderms, the sand having been sifted out, and the fragments of coral, if any, removed; at all events none were found in it. Many of the contents had evidently been crushed or broken by the teeth of fishes. The pteropod remains had been derived from the surface, and very few of the other specimens had been alive when dredged. The total amount of material from off Georgia was somewhat more than a pint, and that from off Fer- nandina about twice as much.

ZooKeys 791: 47–70. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.791.22587 Abstract The list of marine invertebrate biodiversity living in the southern tip of South America is compiled. In particular, the living invertebrate organisms, reported in the literature for the Argentine Sea, were checked and summarized covering more than 8,000 km of coastline and marine platform. After an exhaustive lit- erature review, the available information of two centuries of scientific contributions is summarized. Thus, almost 3,100 valid species are currently recognized as living in the Argentine Sea. Part of this dataset was uploaded to the OBIS database, as a product of the Census of Marine Life-NaGISA project.

    SCIENTIFIC RESULTS OF EXPLORATIONS BY THE U. S. FISH COMMISSION STEAMER ALBATROSS. [Published by permission of lion. Marshall McDonald, Commissioner of Fisheries.] No. VII.—PRELIMINARY REPORT ON THE COLLECTION OF MOLLUSCA AND BRACHIOPODA OBTAINED IN 1887-'S8. BY William Healev Dall, A. M.. Curator of the Department of Mollusks. (With Plates V to XIV.) Before proceeding to discuss the particular specimens obtained on the voyage of the U. S. Fish Commission steamer Albatross from Fortress Monroe in Chesapeake Bay to Magellan Straits and northward to Cal- ifornia, it may not be improper to say a few words on the conditions under which the deep-sea Mollusks exist, and the reasons why a study of these animals is important for science. In order that their existence may be maintained, the abyssal mollusks require oxygen to aerate their circulation, food to eat, and a foot-hold upon which they may establish themselves. It is necessary that the conditions should be such as will not prevent the development of the eggs by which successive generations are propagated. That they do permit it may be assumed from the very fact that mollusks in large uumbers have been shown beyond all question to exist on the oceanic floor wherever it has been explored. Formerly, when dredging with the usual appliances in small boats, 100 fathoms (GOO feet) was considered extremely deep. If one stauds at the foot of the great Washington obelisk and looks up, the idea of collecting a satisfactory representation of the insects and plants on the ground at its base by dragging a 0-foot trawl or dredge by a line let down from the apex of the monument strikes one as preposterous.
