Abstract:

Late Permian gastropod fauna in the Mt. Everest (Qomolangma) region, southern Tibet (Xizang), China is poorly known. This paper describes a small gastropod fauna collected by one of the authors (SSZ) from the upper part of the Qubuerga Formation at the Qubu section. The section is located at about 30 km north of Mt. Everest (Fig. 1). Although a limited number of specimens is available, the fauna is more diverse than all previously reported gastropod faunas (e.g., Yu, 1975) from southern Tibet. Description of the gastropod fauna in the Mt. Everest region adds significant data for understanding

Abstract:

Gastropods (Mollusca: Gastropoda) are an important component of soft-bottom faunas in temperate latitudes. The diversity and distribution of gastropod fauna on sedimentary substrata at the Ensenada de Baiona (Galicia, NW Iberian Peninsula) was studied by means of quantitative sampling. The total number of species was similar to that found in other Galician “rias” dominated by sandy sediments and greater than in other “rias”. whose sediments are mostly muddy. Gastropod assemblages in gravelly and sandy bottoms of the inlet were, in general, more diverse than those in mud

This catalogue of 194 gastropod taxa is based on the collection of Danian gastropods from the Baunekule facies, Faxe Formation in eastern Denmark. The gastropod fauna is extremely rich and well preserved. Most of the gastropods (106 species) are referred to genus level only, 9 morphotypes to even higher taxonomical levels and 79 gastropods are referred to species level. The gastropods are classified following Bouchet & Rocroi (2005) as 4 different clades: Vetigastropoda (represented by 26 species and 10 superfamilies), Caenogastropoda (represented by 142 species and 17 superfamilies), Hete

The species richness of major clades and functional groups among gastropods, a key element of Modern Evolutionary Fauna (MEF), underlines the dominant role of carnivorous Caenogastropoda and Heterobranchia, including small ectoparasites and micrograzers, at modern tropical latitudes. Neogastropoda are active predators that radiated in the Cretaceous, but their early Mesozoic MEF roots are poorly understood. The escalation hypothesis emphasises prey–predator interactions as gastropods’ macroevolutionary drivers during the Mesozoic Marine Revolution but overlooks the significance of highly diver

This research was conducted in April 2015 and aimed to determine the composition and distribution of mangrove mollusks, especially gastropods, in Lombok Island. The method used is purposive sampling and visual encounter. Observations were carried out at six statio

Abstract:

The late Cenozoic history of mollusks in the tropical and subtropical Western Atlantic has traditionally been viewed as one of decreasing species richness via a series of more or less discrete extinction episodes, from a Mio-Pliocene peak to the depauperate (relative to the Eastern Pacific) fauna of today. These extinction episodes have been interpreted by some authors as responses to climatic deterioration, especially climatic cooling associated with northern hemisphere glaciation.Two new species-level compilations of gastropods suggest, however, that this traditional scenario may be oversimp

These gastropod are known to occur in freshwaters environments, thus consolidating the hypothesis of a non-influence of brackish water on the upper Miocene deposits of the Acre Basin.

A synthesis of current research suggests several trends in deep sea taphonomy. First, epibiosis (the condition of having bionts on exoskeletons that is not obligate) appears to decrease with increasing depth. Epibionts, such as serpulid polychaetes and barnacles that take advantage of ephemeral hard substrates offered by crab exoskeletons, sea urchin spines or gastropod shells, appear to be more diverse and common at depths of less than 500 m. At abyssal depths, microbial communities on living shells are common and may contribute to the breakdown of molluscan periostracum. These communities ma
