CLENCH CURATOR OF MOW.USKS, HARVARD UNIVERSITY INTRODUCTION The following report is based largely upon the extensive collection of Pacific island mollusks in Bernice P. Bishop Museum. The study was made possible by a Yale-Bishop Museum Fellowship which was granted for the winter of 1940-1941. Upon my return to Cambridge, the collection of mollusks in my charge was reviewed for additional data for the two families considered in this paper. I am exceedingly grateful to the Yale University Committee and to the Trustees of Bishop Museum for this fellowship and for the rare opportunity to study in the Hawaiian Islands. The value to the individual scientist of an opportunity of this sort far transcends the published results of a single report. Such an experience with the chance of seeing new and different animals and plants in the field and under totally different conditions naturally tends to shift preconceived viewpoints obtained from other field experience.

  • Dangling Shells and Dangerous Spiders: Malacophagy and Mimicry in Terrestrial Gastropods
    Folia conchyliologica , n°7 , Février 2011 Dangling shells and dangerous spiders: malacophagy and mimicry in terrestrial gastropods 2 par Abraham S.H. BREURE Abstract . ─ Shells dangling on lines attached to a substratum may be either empty shell in use by spiders, or gastropods in hibernation. Previous data on dangling gastropods and malacophagy by spiders and harvestmen are summarized and discussed. Some new observations on dangling shells are reported from various localities in the West Indies. Keywords . ─ Gastropoda, Annulariidae, Cyclophoridae, Araneae, Opiliones, malacophagy, mimicry, Malaysia, West Indies. Résumé . – Les coquilles suspendues par des fils attachés à un substrat peuvent être soit des coquilles vides utilisées par les araignées, soit des gastéropodes en hivernation. Les données antérieures sur les gastéropodes suspendus et la malacophagie par les araignées et les opilions sont résumées et discutées. Quelques nouvelles observations sur les coquilles suspendues sont signalées dans diverses localités des Antilles. Mots clés . ─ Gastropoda, Annulariidae, Cyclophoridae, Araneae, Opiliones, malacophagie, mimétisme, Malaysie, Antilles. Introduction Recently DEELEMAN -REINHOLD (2009) published an observation that she, as an arachnologist, made some years ago when collecting spiders in rainforests in Borneo. She observed shells of Alycaeus (Cyclophoridae), dangling on lines attached to limestone slabs. This behaviour was cursorily reported by SCHILTHUIZEN et al . (1999). However, as Deeleman-Reinhold found eight spiderlings inside the 22 shells observed, behind the operculum, she suggested that the shells were possibly used for shelter or deposition of eggs. More generally, observations on spider-gastropod interaction are usually limited to prey-predator relationships. Although spiders have been reported in entomological literature to predate on gastropods (for a review, see NYFELLER & S YMONDSON , 2001; see also ACOSTA & M ACHADO , 2007), this is hardly reported in malacological literature (DU PREEZ , 2001; POLLARD & J ACKSON , 2004).

Index 45 OTRODUCTIO^. OBJECTS. The want of a complete and consistent list of the principal subdivisions of the mollusks having been experienced for some time, and such a list being at length imperatively needed for the arrangement of the collections of the Smithsonian Institution, the present arrangement has been compiled for that purpose. It must be considered simply as a provisional list, embracing the results of the most recent and approved researches into the systematic relations and anatomy of those animals, but from which innova- tions and peculiar views, affecting materially the classification, have been excluded.

  • The Diversity of Land Snail Fauna in Chonburi Province, Eastern Thailand
    Kasetsart J. (Nat. Sci.) 42 : 256 - 263 (2008) The Diversity of Land Snail Fauna in Chonburi Province, Eastern Thailand Pratin Boonngam*, Pongrat Dumrongrojwattana and Surin Matchacheep ABSTRACT Land snails diversity were investigated in several habitats in Chonburi Province, Eastern Thailand. Snails were collected from 14 areas throughout Chonburi Province. A total of 16 families 29 genera and 48 species were recorded, 22 of which had been previously reported. The others could be identified into genus level and at least nine of them are being proposed as new to science. Key words: land snail, Gastropoda, Chonburi province INTRODUCTION snail were reported for Chonburi Province previously by Panha (1996) Hemmen and Land snails belong to the Phylum Hemmen (2001) Panha and Burch (2005). The Mollusca, Class Gastropoda and include two present study was undertaken to update the species groups prosobranchs and pulmonates. list of land snails in Chonburi Province. Prosobranchs, frequently have heavily calcified shells and opercula covering the aperture or MATERIALS AND METHODS opening or their shells. Pulmonates, lack opercula and used lung in gas exchange process. As Specimens were collected from several herbivores, snails eat many kinds of fresh and dead habitats in Chonburi Province. Methods consisted leaves and are eaten by many animals such as some of collecting soil samples where shells or predacious insects, snakes, birds and small fragments of shells were found, or where snails mammals. They live under leaves, litter, logs, were suspected to be present. Limestone soils are stones and trash. Some land snails carry serve as by far the richest source of snails in Chonburi hosts for some parasites such as Hemiplecta Province.

    Rec. zool. Surv. India: 105 (Part 1-2) : 83-95, 2005 CHECKLIST OF TERRESTRIAL GASTROPODS OF TAMIL NADU, INDIA RAJENDRA, G. MAVINKURVE, SANDHYA, P., P. SHANBHAG AND N. A. MADHYASTHA* Malacology Centre, Poornaprajna College, Udupi-576 101, Karnataka, India E-mail: [email protected];[email protected]; sps [email protected] INTRODUCTION Molluscs fonn an important constituent of leaf litter and soil biota. They are an ideal group for monitoring site specific environmental impact assessment studies because of their limited migration patterns. Majority of them remain undiscovered or under described, partly because of insufficient exploration and partly because of their often minute sizes (Emberton, 1995). Unfortunately, for the last 75 years or so, in South India, no attention has been paid for this important group with exceptions of some localized reviews and publications [(Tonapi and Mulhekar, 1963; Tonapi 1971; Subba Rao and Mitra, 1979, 1986; Madhyastha et ai., 2003, 2005; Mavinkurve et ai., 2004a, (in press); Sandhya et ai., (submitted)]. The works of Ramanan (1900) and Sathyamurthi (1960) are the preliminary source for those interested in the terrestrial molluscs of Tamil Nadu. This work is in continuation of the checklist for the land snails of the southern states that is being fonnulated (Mavinkurve et al., 2004b). STUDY AREA Situated on the southeastern side of the Indian peninsula, the state of Tamil Nadu has an area of 130,058 sq Ian. The landmass of the state can be divided into two natural divisions: (i) The eastern coastal plain (ii) The hilly region along the north and the west. Along the whole length of the western part, at a distance from the sea varying from 80 to 160 km runs the Western Ghats range, a steep and rugged mass averaging 1220 metres above the sea level.

  • And Freshwater Molluscs of the Seychelles, with Consequences for Taxa from Africa, Madagascar, India, the Philippines, Jamaica, and Europe
    B72(4-6)_totaal-backup_corr:Basteria-basis.qxd 15-9-2008 10:34 Pagina 93 BASTERIA, 72: 93-110, 2008 Notes on the nomenclature of some land- and freshwater molluscs of the Seychelles, with consequences for taxa from Africa, Madagascar, India, the Philippines, Jamaica, and Europe Ruud A. BANK & Henk P.M.G. MENKHORST c/o National Museum of Natural History Naturalis, P.O. Box 9517, NL 2300 RA Leiden, The Netherlands; [email protected] & [email protected] The nomenclature of the non-marine molluscs of the Seychelles islands (western Indian Ocean) as used in the 2006 treatise by Gerlach is critically reviewed. Notes are given regarding the use of brackets, publication dates, spelling of species-group names, overlooked genus-group names, and overlooked homonyms and synonyms in species-group names. A revised bibliog- raphy is presented. The Philippine species Steatodryas cepoides should be called Pachya cepoides; the European species now known as Petasina unidentata (Draparnaud, 1805) should be called Petasina monodon (A. Férussac, 1807). For Edouardia sensu auctt. (non Gude, 1914), a group of taxa living in Africa, Madagascar and India, the name Gittenedouardia is introduced. The nomen novum Annularia rosenbergi is introduced for the Jamaican species Turbo pulcher W. Wood, 1828 nec Dillwyn, 1817. Key words: Gastropoda Pulmonata, Acavidae, Stylodonta, Bradybaenidae, Pachya, Steatodryas, Hygromiidae, Petasina, Cerastidae, Conulinus, Edouardia, Gittenedouardia, Annulariidae, Annularia, synonymy, nomenclature, Seychelles, Philippines, Africa, India, Madagascar, Europe. INTRODUCTION Taxonomy (and thus biology as a whole) needs a universal and unambiguous lan- guage for the designation of taxa, and this language is provided by the codes of nomen- clature.
