ABSTRACT Coastal ecosystems have high biodiversity, where Indonesia is one of the countries with the highest diversity of marine organisms in the world, so the study of mangrove snails Cassidula angulifera (Gastropoda: Ellobiidae) has been conducted in September 2020 on the beach Payum Merauke Regency Papua Province with the aim as a basic data in mangrove management in Indonesia, especially in Merauke Regency which is reviewed from population structure, environmental characteristics and determining factors of distribution and density of mangrove snail C. angulifera. Data of mangrove conch C. angulifera and mangrove forest Payum Merauke beach collected by making transect lines and plots drawn from the reference point (outer mangrove stand) and perpendicular to the shoreline to the mainland. Furthermore, to find out the environmental and factors that determine the distribution and density of mangrove snails C. angulifera on the beach Payum Merauke Regency of Papua Province analyzed using PCA. The results showed that for the population structure, the highest density of mangrove snail C. angulifera is at Station 2 (40.67 ind/m2), while the lowest is at Station 3 (5 ind/ m2), then the distribution pattern is classified as uniform (Iδ < 1). For environmental characteristics of mangrove snail C. angulifera on the beach Payum Merauke Regency of Papua Province shows that the density of mangroves is classified as high (> 1000 ind/ha), the water temperature ranges from 28.33 - 31.67°C, DO 5.60 – 7.67 mg/L, pH 6.83 – 7.53, salinity 29.33 – 30.00‰, and form two groups. As for the determining factor of distribution and density of mangrove snails C. angulifera on the beach Payum Merauke Regency of Papua Province is influenced by water temperature, DO, and mangrove density.

Corresponding Author: *3 Sherkhane UD, e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The present research paper provides an account of gross anatomy of reproductive system in snail L. acuminata. Results obtained shows that the reproductive system of L. acuminata consists of three divisions: (1) The ovotestis or hermaphroditic gland and its duct i.e., the hermaphroditic duct, (2) The female genital tract and (3) The male genital tract. The female duct system consists of the oviduct, the uterus, the vagina and associated accessory glands which include the albumen gland, the muciparous gland and oothecal gland. The male duct system consists of the vas efferens, the prostate gland, vas deferens and the copulatory organ the Penial complex. We hope that the results obtained will be highly useful to understand reproductive anatomy and taxonomy of freshwater gastropods. Key Words: Lymnaea acuminata, Anatomy, Reproductive system. INTRODUCTION Freshwater pulmonate snail Lymnaea acuminata Lamarck, 1822 (Mollusca: Gastropoda: Pulmonata) is abundantly available in various parts of Indian subcontinent (Subba Rao, 1989). The reproductive system of freshwater gastropods varies greatly from one group to another and their reproductive strategies also vary greatly. A considerable diversity exists in the internal anatomy of the reproductive tracts of gastropods which is of taxonomic importance.

PEDIPEDINAE (GASTROPODA: ELLOBIIDAE) FROM HONG KONG Ant6nio M. de Frias Martins Departamento de Biologia, Universidade dos A~ores,P-9502 Ponta Delgada, Siio Miguel, A~ores,Portugal ABSTRACT Two species of Pedipedinae are recorded for the first time from Hong Kong and are here provisionally referred to as Pedipes jouani Montrouzier, 1862 and Microtralia alba (Gassies, 1865), described from New Caledonia. A descriptive study of the reproductive and nervous systems was conducted and confirms previous studies that both genera are consubfamilial. The distribution and dispersal of the species is discussed. INTRODUCTION The Indo-Pacific Ellobiidae are particularly well represented by conspicuous, mangrove- dwelling, macroscopic species, relatively few of which have been studied anatomically. Koslowsky (1933) presented a detailed description of Melampus boholensis 'H. and A. Adams' Pfeiffer, 1856. Morton (1955) described the anatomy of Pythia Roding, 1798, Ellobium Roding, 1798 [E.aurisjudae (L. 1758)l and of the small pedipedinian Marinula King, 1832 [M.filholi Hutton, 18781.

  • Reproductive Cycle in an Ellobiid Snail Cassidula Nucleus A
    Indian J. Fish., 45(3) : 301-305, Jul.-Sep., 1998 Reproductive cycle in an ellobiid snail Cassidula nucleus A. SHANMUGAM Centre of Advanced Study in Marine Biology, Parangipettai - 608 502, India ABSTRACT The histology of the ovotestis and the reproductive cycle of Cassidula nucleus which shows protandry were studied. This ellobiid snail attains the first sexual maturity at a size of 16.0 mm (shell length). Since it is a protandric hermaphrodite the male and female genital ducts are fully developed alternatively. The male phase starts in September (premonsoon) when the male reproductive system is fully developed. The female reproductive ducts start developing in November (monsoon). Upto the end of January (postmonsoon) the bursa copulatrix is filled with mucous only. The penis and the anterior part of the vas deferens are distinct during the male phase only. From February onwards copulation takes place, mostly during night. Following this, the egg-laying starts from middle of April (first part of summer season) and extends for another month. In the beginning of July the snails enter into the spent stage and remain upto August during which time no sex cells are present in the ovotestis. The cycle is repeated for the subsequent year.

  • Johannes Thiele and His Contributions to Zoology. Part 2. Genus-Group Names (Mollusca)
    NEMOURIA Occasional Papers of the Delaware Museum of Natural History NUMBER 39 SEPTEMBER 30, 1991 JOHANNES THIELE AND HIS CONTRIBUTIONS TO ZOOLOGY. PART 2. GENUS-GROUP NAMES (MOLLUSCA) Kenneth J. Boss 1 and Rudiger Bieler2 ABSTRACT. This is the second part of a series on the German zoologist Johannes Thiele (1860-1935) and comprises a critical listing of the genus-group taxa which he described as new to malacology. Each of these names is accompanied by author and bibliographic references, original status, type-species with its original binominal spelling and bibliographic source and some data on subsequent taxonomic placements. Thiele introduced a total of 291 such names in the Phylum Mollusca, distributed as follows: 11 Aplacophora; 39 Polyplacophora; 200 Gastropoda (138 Prosobranchia; 20 Opisthobranchia and 42 Pulmonata); 31 Bivalvia; 10 Cephalopoda; there were no new scaphopod or monoplacophoran names. Of these, later authors recognized as valid 85 at the generic level, 110 at the subgeneric level; 71 are considered to be synonyms, and the remaining 25 are unjustified emendations or errors. INTRODUCTION As part of a series on the scientific contributions of Johannes Thiele, the eminent German zoologist, we provide here an alphabetical listing and analysis of all the genus-group taxa introduced by him in his publications on mollusks as delineated by Bieler & Boss (1989). A total of 291 names is included in the following format: (1) genus-group name; (2) author(s); (3) year of publication; (4) condensed bibliographic reference; (5) original status as given by Thiele; (6) subsequent status 1Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Serial Publication Cambridge, Massachussetts 02138, U.S.A.
