  • Coralliophiline Diversity at Mid-Atlantic Seamounts (Neogastropoda, Muricidae, Coralliophilinae)
    BULLETIN OF MARINE SCIENCE, 79(1): 205–230, 2006 NEW TAXA PAPER CORALLIOPHILINE DIVERSITY AT MID ATLANTIC SEAMOUNTS NEOGASTROPODA, MURICIDAE, CORALLIOPHILINAE Marco Oliverio and Serge Gofas ABSTRACT Eleven species of the Coralliophilinae were identified on seamounts of the NE Atlantic and in the Azores. The species-level taxonomy is reviewed with empha- sis on the protoconch species-specific characters. The Meteor group of seamounts yielded six species (plus two unidentified), with 3–6 species found sympatrically. Babelomurex atlantidis is described as new, Coralliophila aedonia (Watson, 1886), Babelomurex sentix (Bayer, 1971) and B. dalli (Emerson and D’Attilio, 1963) are re- ported for the first time in the mid-North Atlantic. Species which were found either abundant (C. aedonia, B. sentix, B. atlantidis) or reproducing (B. dalli) are assumed to form established populations on the mid-Atlantic seamounts. In the Lusitanian group of seamounts only Gorringe yielded more than one species; all species are shared either with the European mainland or with the Canary Islands, and there is no evidence for established populations. The coralliophiline species found on the seamounts showed evidence of planktotrophic larval development; at least two are amphiatlantic, which illustrates the role of the seamounts as stepping stones in transoceanic dispersal. Some species are not known outside the seamounts, but this may be explained by the increased availability of bathyal hard bottoms rather than by limitations to dispersal. The Coralliophilinae include ca. 200 species of coral eating gastropods, distributed worldwide in tropical and temperate seas. Their placement within the family Muri- cidae, close to Rapaninae s.l. is strongly supported by molecular data (Oliverio and Mariottini, 2001a; Oliverio, Cervelli and Mariottini, 2002).

  • Coral-Eating Snail Drupella Cornus Population Increases in Kenyan Coral Reef Lagoons
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published December 1 Mar. Ecol. Prog. Ser. Coral-eating snail Drupella cornus population increases in Kenyan coral reef lagoons T. R. McClanahan The Wildlife Conservation Society, Coral Reef Conservation Project, PO Box 99470, Mombasa, Kenya ABSTRACT: Data from a study of corallivorous snails in 8 Kenyan coral-reef lagoons sampled at 3 time intervals over a 6 yr period suggest that Drupella cornus populations have increased on Kenyan reefs. This increase was greatest in heavily fished reefs and a transition reef (converted to a park in about 1990) but less pronounced in the unfished parks and a reserve (restricted fishing). The abundance of corallivorous snails was better predicted by the abundance of their predators than the abundance of their coral food. The 2 most abundant species, Coralhophjla violacaea and D. cornus, were associated with the coral genus Porites although D. cornus was found on a wider variety of coral genera than C. violacea. D. cornus was most abundant on fished reefs with the exception of l reef where C. violacea was dominant and persisted at high population densities over the study period. Observed population increases in Kenya and western Australia may be due to oceanic conditions which improved D. cornus recruitment success during the late 1980s. KEY WORDS: Fishing .

It was identified as Hirtomurex nakamurai Kosuge, 1985 based on external mor­ phological characteristics. The Coralliophilinae species, commonly known as coral snails, are broadly distributed in tropical and temperate oceans from shallow subtidal zones up to 1,000 m in depth. To date, only four Coralliophila species in the subfamily Coralliophilinae have been reported from Korean waters. Prior to this report, Hirtomurex species has not been reported from Korean waters yet. As a result of this study, a total of five species in two genera of subfamily Coralliophilinae are recorded as Korean mollusk fauna.

Diving observations and collections of benthic observations using scuba and snorkel were made at six stations in Pago Pago Harbor, two stations in Fagatele Bay, and one station each in Vatia Bay and Fagasa Bay. The purpose of this survey was to determine the full complement of organisms greater than 0.5 mm in size, including benthic algae, macroinvertebrates and fishes, occurring at each site, and to evaluate the presence and potential impact of nonindigenous (introduced) marine species.
