Abstract:

A diverse mollusc fauna from the Bastion Formation (Early Cambrian, middle Dyeran Stage) of North-East Greenland includes fifteen species (thirteen helcionelloids and two bivalves), adding considerable detail to the known fossil record of Early Cambrian molluscs from Laurentia. The occurrence of secondarily phosphatized shell surfaces together with phosphatic internal moulds in acid resistant residues allows new morphological details to be observed in several taxa. The fauna shows affinity to contemporaneous faunas from the Taconic allochthon of the eastern United States, but also to mollusc f

Abstract:

ABSTRACTMolluscs from the Middle and Upper Ordovician succession of Girvan, SW Scotland are common and diverse in some localities. The mollusc fauna consists mainly of gastropods, bivalves and various univalved molluscs (mimospirids and tergomyans), along with scarcer polyplacophorans, rostroconchs and cephalopods. The present study gives an overview of the distribution and palaeoecology of bivalves, gastropods and univalved molluscs and compares them with mollusc faunas worldwide. Gastropods, mimospirids and tergomyans are present from the Darriwilian (mid Llanvirn) onwards in both siliciclas

A late Burdigalian bathyal mollusc fauna from the Vienna Basin (Slovakia)This is the first record of a bathyal mollusc fauna from the late Early Miocene of the Central Paratethys. The assemblage shows clear affinities to coeval faunas of the Turin Hills in the Mediterranean area and the Aquitaine Basin in France. The overall biostratigraphic value of the assemblage is hard to estimate due to the general very poor knowledge of Miocene bathyal faunas. Several species, however, are known from deep water deposits of the Middle Miocene Badenian stage as well. This implies Early Miocene roots of par

Aquatic alien species (AAS) have had a major impact on freshwater ecosystems, including Lake Naivasha in Kenya. Here, the ecosystem has undergone tremendous changes and multiple species introductions over the past 100 years, and molluscs have experienced a major decline in species diversity. The East African Rift Lakes have experienced a steady rise in lake levels since 2010. We investigated the impact of recent ecosystem changes on the lakes’ molluscs by determining the current mollusc diversity and its composition.

These substances can affect the vegetation and animals occurring in the water and the surrounding area.

Two drill cores in the area of the ancient lake were analysed to establish the sedimentological succession and the depositional environments using sub-fossil assemblages (molluscs and ostracods).

Abstract:

The study was conducted to asses the aquatic faunal diversity in the Ratargul Swamp Forest during the period from November 2014 to October 2015. For the systematic study of aquatic fauna, the quadrate method along with transect was used where 4 transects were selected in the swamp forest each with 5 stations based on topography and vegetation. A total of 24 species of aquatic fauna belonging to 18 families were identified during the period, which were crustaceans (7), molluscs (4), fishes (12) and annelid (1). Among them, fishes were the most dominant and abundant groups. The crustaceans, moll

Abstract:

Composition, trophic structure, and species-substrate relationships of molluscan assemblages inhabiting different hard bottom habitats (Sabellaria alveolata reef, photophilic bottoms, Phyllophora crispa sciaphilic assemblage, and coralligenous bioconstruction) were studied in two different sites of the Tyrrhenian Sea. In particular, molluscs from the Sabellaria alvevolata (Linnaeus, 1767) reef and coralligenous concretion were investigated, testing the hypothesis that bioconstructions increase the diversity and abundance of associated biota compared to the surrounding habitats. A total of 3134

Overall, our updated list of molluscs from Gravitelli includes 101 taxa (some identified only at generic level), of which five are new Plio-Pleistocene records and one (Toroi

Samples were taken between August 1995 and July 1996 in São Francisco (mainland) and Engenho d'Água (São Sebastião Island) beaches. A pronounced decrease in abundance and diversity of molluscs was associated with changes in the structure of the environment, caused by sea storms in the beginning of the summer (December), and by the increase of waste water discharge in this same period.

Abstract:

Studies of the effects of biodiversity on ecosystem function (BDEF) have largely found positive, saturating relationships. However, these studies have been criticised for generating species loss randomly when real extinctions are strongly biased toward rare species. We investigated BDEF relationships in the mollusc fauna of an intertidal rock platform at Griffiths Point, San Remo, south-east Victoria, Australia. Field surveys found that areas with the lowest function (mollusc biomass) were associated with lowest diversity. Excluding individual species from experimental enclosures affected func
