Trends present in the original data were used to verify the direction of timing change (acceleration or retardation) relative to the compression and expansion patterns of each grid. Cell lineage originations that are accelerating between OTUs or HTUs produce compressions in the grid (2q11, 3q1, 4Q), while cell lineages that are decelerating between configurations cause expansion of the grid (1q1 and 1q11).

  • Evolution of Large Body Size in Abalones (Haliotis): Patterns and Implications
    Paleobiology, 31(4), 2005, pp. 591±606 Evolution of large body size in abalones (Haliotis): patterns and implications James A. Estes, David R. Lindberg, and Charlie Wray Abstract.ÐKelps and other ¯eshy macroalgaeÐdominant reef-inhabiting organisms in cool seasÐ may have radiated extensively following late Cenozoic polar cooling, thus triggering a chain of evolutionary change in the trophic ecology of nearshore temperate ecosystems. We explore this hypothesis through an analysis of body size in the abalones (Gastropoda; Haliotidae), a widely distributed group in modern oceans that displays a broad range of body sizes and contains fossil representatives from the late Cretaceous (60±75 Ma). Geographic analysis of maximum shell length in living abalones showed that small-bodied species, while most common in the Tropics, have a cosmopolitan distribution, whereas large-bodied species occur exclusively in cold-water ecosys- tems dominated by kelps and other macroalgae. The phylogeography of body size evolution in extant abalones was assessed by constructing a molecular phylogeny in a mix of large and small species obtained from different regions of the world. This analysis demonstrates that small body size is the plesiomorphic state and largeness has likely arisen at least twice. Finally, we compiled data on shell length from the fossil record to determine how (slowly or suddenly) and when large body size arose in the abalones. These data indicate that large body size appears suddenly at the Miocene/Pliocene boundary. Our ®ndings support the view that ¯eshy-algal dominated ecosys- tems radiated rapidly in the coastal oceans with the onset of the most recent glacial age.

E-mail: [email protected] 2Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa, P.O. Box 467, Wellington, New Zealand. E-mail [email protected] Abstract Thirteen new species of Scissurellidae (Scissurella regalis n. sp., Sinezona mechanica n. sp., Sinezona platyspira n. sp., Sinezona enigmatica n. sp., Sinezona wanganellica n. sp., Satondella azonata n. sp., Satondella bicristata n. sp.), Anatomidae (Anatoma amydra n. sp., Anatoma kopua n. sp., Anatoma megascutula n. sp., Anatoma tangaroa n. sp.), and Larocheidae (Larochea spirata n. sp., Larocheopsis macrostoma n. sp.) are described, all of which occur in New Zealand waters. The greatest geographic source of new taxa is the islands and underwater features off northern New Zealand. The new shell-morphological term “sutsel” is introduced for the area between the SUTure and the SELenizone. Keywords: new species, shell, radula, New Zealand, Indo-Malayan Archipelago Introduction The molluscan fauna of New Zealand is relatively well-known, based on the monographs by Powell (1979), and the inventories by Spencer & Willan (1995) and Spencer et al. (2009, 2011). The scissurellids have received some recent attention by Marshall (1993, 2002). Extensive collecting in the New Zealand region and large scale sediment sorting (by B.A.M.) over the last 35 years have yielded over 20,000 specimens of scissurellids and anatomids, including a number of undescribed species, which are here described.

Based upon the ranges of the extant species, the climate seems to have been warmer than today. This diverse subtropical fauna can be found in patches in southeastern North Carolina and northeastern South Carolina. It is roughly equivalent to the modern fauna of central South Carolina to North Florida, however, there was dramatic faunal turnover about 1.7 MYA and the modern Carolinian fauna is much more similar to the modern Caribbean fauna than the Waccamaw Formation fossils are to equivalent age Caribbean faunas. Fossils have been known from the Lower Waccamaw Formation since prehistory. Although the first scientific study was Tuomey and Holmes, 1856, no single monograph exists. Roughly 40% of the species are extant. The species derive from multiple habitats, including 30-50 m sandy-bottom shelf, cementing bivalve reef, 10-20 m sandy- bottom shelf, surf to subtidal, saltmarsh, muddy-bottom sound, inlet, and freshwater to brackish.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The taxonomy, paleo-ecology and biogeography of the highly diverse “Cabarruyan” fauna are explored further. Eight spe- cies of three vetigastropod families are discussed here, one of which is described as new: Zeidora geigeri nov. spec. The other seven species were previously described from Recent material and three of these are also known from other fossil deposits. Most of the species still occur around the Philippines today. Key words: Fossil, new species, taxonomy, Indo-West Pacific, Cabarruyan Introduction The Indo-West Pacific is well-known for its richness in marine biodiversity. The fossil record of this region can elucidate the antiquity of this marine hotspot and the context of its origin (Renema et al. 2008). The highly diverse “Cabarruyan” fauna from the Plio-Pleistocene of the Pangasinan province, the Philippines, is well suited to shed light on the diversification of the marine fauna of the area. This paper continues the taxonomic investigation of the “Cabarruyan” fauna. The holoplanktonic gastropods (Pterotracheoidea, Janthinoidea, Thecosomata and Gymnosomata) of this fauna were previously treated in Janssen (2007) and the vetigastropod families Colloniidae, Seguenziidae, Calliotropidae, Calliostomatidae, Trochidae, Solariellidae and Turbinidae were covered in Helwerda et al.

GEIGER AND LINDSEY T. GROVES Department of Biological Sciences, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, 90089-0371, <[email protected]>, and Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County, Sections of Malacology and Invertebrate Paleontology, 900 Exposition Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90007, <[email protected]> ABSTRACT—Compared to their Recent counterparts, fossil abalone are rare and poorly known. Their taxonomy is problematic, because most of the 35 fossil species have been described from single specimens and shell characteristics of Recent species are extremely plastic. Thus, the use of fossil species in phylogeny is questionable. Abalone first appear in the Upper Cretaceous (Maastrichian) with one species each in California and the Caribbean, are unknown in the Paleocene, and appear again in the late Eocene and Oligocene of New Zealand and Europe. They are regularly found from the late Miocene to the Recent in tropical to temperate regions worldwide. Most records are from intensely studied areas: SW North America, Caribbean, Europe, South Africa, Japan, and Australia. Despite their highest present-day diversity being found in the Indo-Pacific, their scarcity in the fossil record in this region is remarkable. The family may have originated in the central Indo-Pacific, Pacific Rim, or Tethys. An extensive list of all known fossil records including new ones from Europe and western North America is given. Fossil and Recent abalone both apparently lived in the shallow, rocky sublittoral in tropical and temperate climates.

  • A Phylogeny of Vetigastropoda and Other Archaeogastropods

DOI: 10.1111/j.1744-7410.2010.00198.x A phylogeny of Vetigastropoda and other ‘‘archaeogastropods’’: re-organizing old gastropod clades Stephanie W. Aktipisa and Gonzalo Giribet Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology and Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, USA Abstract. The phylogenetic relationships among the ‘‘archaeogastropod’’ clades Patellogastro- poda, Vetigastropoda, Neritimorpha, and Neomphalina are uncertain; the phylogenetic place- ment of these clades varies across different analyses, and particularly among those using morphological characteristics and those relying on molecular data. This study explores the re- lationships among these groups using a combined analysis with seven molecular loci (18S rRNA, 28S rRNA, histone H3, 16S rRNA, cytochrome c oxidase subunit I [COI], myosin heavy-chain type II, and elongation factor-1a [EF-1a]) sequenced for 31 ingroup taxa and eight outgroup taxa. The deep evolutionary splits among these groups have made resolution of stable relationships difficult, and so EF-1a and myosin are used in an attempt to re-examine these ancient radiation events. Three phylogenetic analyses were performed utilizing all seven genes: a single-step direct optimization analysis using parsimony, and two-step approaches using par- simony and maximum likelihood. A single-step direct optimization parsimony analysis was also performed using only five molecular loci (18S rRNA, 28S rRNA, histone H3, 16S rRNA, and COI) in order to determine the utility of EF-1a and myosin in resolving deep relationships. In the likelihood and POY optimal phylogenetic analyses, Gastropoda, Caenogastropoda, Neritimorpha, Neomphalina, and Patellogastropoda were monophyletic.

  • 3 Patterns of Diversity and Distribution of Aquatic Invertebrates and Their Parasites
    Comp. by: Amoudha Stage: Proof Chapter No.: 3 Title Name: MorandkranovandLittlewood Date:25/10/14 Time:11:09:36 Page Number: 39 3 Patterns of diversity and distribution of aquatic invertebrates and their parasites Tommy L. F. Leung, Camilo Mora and Klaus Rohde 3.1 Introduction The majority of animals on this planet are invertebrates, and a great number of them are found in aquatic habitats including freshwater, brackish or marine environments. It is likely that they also harbour a significant fraction of all parasite biodiversity. While there have been some sporadic research efforts directed at investigating the parasite fauna of aquatic invertebrates over many decades, what we know about their diversity, ecology and distribution is still relatively limited and based largely on host– parasite systems which are limited both in terms of their taxonomic diversity, habitat and geographic regions (see Kinne, 1980–1985 and Rohde, 2005 for overviews). One reason why less research effort has been directed towards investigating parasites of invertebrates compared with those of mammals, birds or fish is that with the exception of some mollusc and crustacean species, the majority of aquatic invertebrates are of little commercial value and there have been few incentives for researchers to investigate their parasites or other potential disease agents. Another reason why we have only limited knowledge of invertebrate host–parasite systems is our incomplete knowledge of the hosts themselves, many of which remain undescribed. In general our knowledge of vertebrate diversity is far greater than that of invertebrates, and consequently we know more about the parasites of those hosts than of invertebrates (Poulin & Morand, 2004).
