Signed: (Simon Reeves) Date: 1/12/2017 II 20/7/18 ABSTRACT Ecologists have long been interested in determining the role biotic relationships play in natural systems. Even Darwin envisioned natural systems as "bound together by a web of complex relations”, noting how “complex and unexpected are the checks and relations between organic beings” (On the Origin of Species, 1859, pp 81-83). Any event or phenomenon that alters the implicit balance in the web of interactions, to any degree, can potentially facilitate a re-organisation in structure that can lead to a wholescale change to the stability of a natural system. As a result of the increasing diversity and intensity of anthropogenic stressors on ecosystems, previously well-understood biotic interactions and emergent ecological functions are being altered, requiring a reappraisal of their effects.

  • The Recent Mollusca of Tasmania
    J View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Tasmania Open Access Repository THE RECENT MOLLUSCA OF TASMANIA, By Mary Lodder. Tasmania may be considered fairly rich in recent mol- luscan species, as she possesses nearly 700 marine forms, with about 100 terrestrial and fresh-water kinds besides. Very many o* ^e species in all branches are extremely small, requiring much careful search in order to obtain them, and microscopical examination to reveal their char- acteristics, their beauties of form, sculpture, and colouring. But such work is well repaid by the results, whilst, doubt- less, there are still various species to be discovered in the less well-known parts of the island, for many of the recog- nised forms are very local in their habitats, and, in numerous cases, their minuteness renders them so difficult to find that even an experienced collector niay overlook them. On the other hand, some of the marine species afford a strong contrast by the great size to which they at- tain, the most remarkable being Valuta mamilla (Gray), which is a foot long when full grown, and broad in propor- tion ; but adult specimens are rarely found in good preserva- tion. The young examples are much prettier as regards colour and markings, having brown bands and dashes on a creamy-yellow ground externally, -while the interior is of a rich yellow, and highly enamelled ; the large mamillary nucleus (which was thought to be a deformity in the first specimen discovered) is always a striking characteristic, giving a curious appearance to the very young shells.

  • 國立中山大學海洋生物研究所碩士論文指導教授︰劉莉蓮博士台灣西海岸蚵岩螺（Thais Clavigera）
    國立中山大學海洋生物研究所碩士論文 指導教授︰劉莉蓮博士 台灣西海岸蚵岩螺（Thais clavigera） 之族群遺傳結構 研究生︰謝榮昌撰 中華民國 九十 年 六 月 二十九 日 台灣西海岸蚵岩螺（Thais clavigera） 之族群遺傳結構 國立中山大學海洋生物研究所碩士論文摘要 研究生：謝榮昌 指導教授︰劉莉蓮博士 本文係利用蛋白質電泳技術，分析台灣西海岸蚵岩螺（Thais clavigera）族 群遺傳結構；探討地點（香山、台西、布袋、七股），成熟度（成熟、未成熟） 以及時間（1999.7~2000.3、2000.11）三因子，對蚵岩螺族群遺傳結構之影響。 結果顯示 11 個基因座中，僅 Ark、Lap-1、Lap-2、Pgm-1 四個為多型性基因座。 地點間平均基因異質性（mean heterozygosity, H）介於 0.100~0.129 之間，遺傳距 離（genetic distance , D）介於 0.0005~0.0029 之間，因此台灣西海岸蚵岩螺可視 為同一族群。但族群分化現象仍然存在，分化差異是由 Ark 基因座造成，依族群 分化差異排序為香山、布袋、台西、七股。此外，Ark 基因座之異質性在四個地 點都有隨著蚵岩螺體型的增大有提高的趨勢，平均基因異質性亦有相同的趨勢， 而不同採樣時間對遺傳結構的影響不大。由本實驗結果推測，蚵岩螺生殖生態和 環境因子（環境品質和地形），可能是造成台灣西海岸蚵岩螺族群遺傳結構相似 度高的重要因素。 III Genetic structure of populations of oyster drill（Thais clavigera） along the west coast of Taiwan Yung-Chang Hsieh （Advisor : L. L. Liu ） Institute of Marine Biology, National Sun Yat-sen University, Kaohsiung 804, Taiwan, R. O. C. Thesis abstract The genetic structure of oyster drill Thais clavigera along the west coast of Taiwan were assayed by starch gel electrophoresis. Factors of locality（i.e. Shainsan, Taisi, Budai, Chiku）,maturity（i.e. mature, immature） and sampling time （i.e.1999.7~2000.3, 2000.11） were analyzed to evaluate their effects on drill‘s genetic structure . Four of the eleven investigated enzyme loci were polymorphic , i.e. Ark, Lap-1, Lap-2, and Pgm-1. Among the four populations , the mean heterozygosity （H）and genetic distances（D） ranged from 0.100 to 0.129 and from 0.0005 to 0.0029, respectively. Therefore, T. clavigera along the west coast of Taiwan belongs to the same population.
