We report for the first time from Persian Gulf (Kish Island, Iran). Maximum length is 5 mm in Persian Gulf. We can observe H. cyanomarginata only 2-3 days in March in each year in Kish Island (Iranian Waters).

The shell is bubble-shaped, colored translucent whitish or yellowish, fragile, smooth, with no traces of ornamentation. The spawn is a translucent ribbon with whitish capsules laid in a one and half turn spiral laid flat on the substrate. There are toxic compounds with significant activity as feeding deterrents in H. cyanomarginata. It is probable that this a lessepsian migrant which has entered the Mediterranean from the Red Sea via the Suez Canal. Food: Haminoea cyanomarginata feeds on diatoms and on filamentous algae. Distribution: Haminoea cyanomarginata originated in the Indo- West Pacific or the Mediterranean. It has already been found in Sudan, Greece, Turkey, Italy, Red Sea and Oman Sea. H. cyanomarginata has seen in Persian Gulf for the first time..

  • Zum Auftreten Der Kopfschildschnecke Haminoea Solitaria (SAY 1822) Im Bereich Der Deutschen Ostseeküste
    1 Mitt. dtsch. malakozool. Ges. 99 1 – 20 Frankfurt a. M., Juni 2018 Zum Auftreten der Kopfschildschnecke Haminoea solitaria (SAY 1822) im Bereich der deutschen Ostseeküste WOLFGANG WRANIK & MANUEL ANTONIO E. MALAQUIAS Abstract: The presence of the Cephalaspidean gastropod Haminoea solitaria (SAY 1822) is reported for the first time on the Baltic coast of Germany. In August 2016 a larger number of specimens were recorded in a shallow area of the island of Poel (Wismar Bay, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany). Snails were found bur- rowing just under the surface of fine-grained sediments and reproducing by gelatinous egg balls anchored on the substrate. Records of smaller specimens of the snail in the Flensburg Firth and in the Kiel Bay in Octo- ber/November 2016 and spring 2017 from deeper areas (about 10 m), records in other shallow parts of the Wis- mar Bay, at Travemuende and at Neustadt/Holstein in 2017 and a possible record from Tjärnö, Sweden (North- ern Skagerrak), indicate, that the species is already well established in European waters and that its range is probably larger than currently known. It might be that it has remained undetected in other areas due to its bur- rowing lifestyle and difficulties in identification. H. solitaria, belonging to the family Haminoeidae, is native to the West Atlantic coast of North America where it occurs in shallow brackish and salt water from the Gulf of Saint Lawrence (Canada) to Florida (USA). European specimens were studied based on shells, live animals, external morphology and anatomy aided by scanning electron microscopy and molecular sequencing.

Some species live on both solid and sedimentary substrates, although how these substrate generalists resist detachment from materials with fundamentally different mechanical properties is not well studied. We used field observations and flow tank experiments to compare the capabilities and tactics of Haminoea vesicula, an opisthobranch gastropod, when exposed to destabilizing flow on its native sand and eelgrass. Velocities of outgoing and incoming spring tides in the tidal creeks and over and within eelgrass beds where H. vesicula live at False Bay, San Juan Island, WA ranged from 1 to 30 cm/s. In a flow tank, snails’ resistance to current depended on substrate and orientation. On eelgrass, snails moving into flow maintained their position at velocities exceeding 40 cm/s, but were more vulnerable when facing away or sideways to flow (falling off at mean velocities of 25 and 32 cm/s respectively). In the latter orientation, snails would often rotate into flow by hooking onto the leading edge of eelgrass with the anterior edge of the cephalic shield. In this position, snails resisted flows exceeding 40 cm/s.

We report on a long-term collection ofOpisthobranchia assembled from the atolls of Bikini, Enewetak, Kwajalein, Rongelap, and Ujelang . Fifty-seven new records for the Marshall Islands are recorded, raising to 103 the number of species reported from these islands.

  • 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.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.
