Abstract:

Like most classifications of molluscan shell microstructure published during the past 25 years (e.g., MacClintock, 1967; Kobayashi, 1964, 1971; Taylor, Kennedy and Hall, 1969, 1973; Grégoire, 1972a), the present one is based largely on Bøggild's (1930) monographic work, redefined from a modern perspective of combined light and scanning electron microscopy. However, this is the first attempt to integrate shell microstructure terminology for mollusks with that employed by students of bryozoan and brachiopod shell microstructure (e.g., Williams, 1968a,b, 1970, 1973; Williams and Wright, 1970; Arm

Abstract:

Coastal ecosystems, encompassing various habitats such as mangroves, coral reefs, beaches, cliffs, lagoons, and estuaries, are vital for the diversity of life. Mollusks, belonging to the phylum Mollusca in the animal kingdom, play a significant role in coastal ecosystems. They serve as important members of the food chain and exhibit remarkable ecological adaptations to various habitats. This research aims to investigate the diversity of mollusks at Kelwa and Shirgaon beaches in Palghar district, Maharashtra. The study will reveal the molluscan diversity at these specific locations, providing i

Abstract:

In 1795, Georges Cuvier proposed a new classification of invertebrate animals based on anatomical data. He created a new concept of mollusks as representatives of a unique type of morphological organization of animals. Before Cuvier, the name "mollusks" was used only for cephalopods without external shells and slugs, whereas all shelled mollusks were placed in another taxon, Testacea. The Cuvier's works (1795a, b, 1798) are considered here as the starting point of transformation of classical conchology (= study of shells) into modern malacology (= study of molluscous animals as whole organisms

Phylogenies are essential for organizing knowledge on biological diversity, structuring classifications, and providing insights into evolutionary events. Worldwide phylogenetic studies on mollusks emerged in the late 1980s, while in Brazil, phylogenetic analyses of mollusks started around 2000. For unknown reasons, phylogenies of lower hierarchical taxa, such as subfamilies, tribes, and genera, are not common in Malacology. Here, we analyzed articles published by malacologists and evaluated the proportion of alpha taxonomic reviews compared to phylogenetic systematic studies conducted at Brazi

Nudibranchs, often called sea slugs, are a group of soft-bodied marine gastropod mollusks that shed their shells after their larval stage. With their body structure that is very similar between one suborder and another, sometimes it is hard to tell apart the suborder of a nudibranch. In this work, we make an Image Classification model for determining the suborder of a nudibranch using deep learning algorithms DenseNet and EfficientNet. The experiment is conducted using Google Colaboratory environment. For DenseNet, we use 121, 169, and 201 layers; meanwhile, we only use the baseline algorithm

Corals are colonial animals within the Phylum Cnidaria that form coral reefs, playing a significant role in marine environments by providing habitat for fish, mollusks, crustaceans, sponges, algae, and other organisms. Global climate changes are causing more intense and frequent thermal stress events, leading to corals losing their color due to the disruption of a symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic endosymbionts. Given the importance of corals to the marine environment, monitoring coral reefs is critical to understanding their response to anthropogenic impacts. Most coral monitoring ac

The “primitive,” “minor” or “lesser” classes of the Mollusca comprise four groups that are typically recognized at the class level in most classification schemes. These classes are: (1) the Aplacophora, (2) the Monoplacophora, (3) the Polyplacophora, and (4) the Scaphopoda. Members of these classes are bilaterally symmetrical and typically possess a ventral muscular foot and a dorsal epidermal tissue (the mantle) that secretes a calcareous covering. Between these two structures lie the viscera. The space that develops between the mantle and the foot of the mollusc is referred to as the mantle

The attention in the article is paid to the key species research importance. Their classification was discussed in our article published in “Studia Biologica” (Y. Tsaryk, O. Reshetylo, I. Tsaryk, Biol. Stud. 2019: 13(1); 161–168). The main emphasis was made on ecological key species, while other categories were analyzed as well (protective, social etc.). A row of potential key species in different ecosystems was proposed based on the original field research. So, such phytophagous insects like the alder leaf beetles Agelastica alni, Linaeidea aenea, and the mother of pearl moth Patania ruralis

O cultivo de moluscos marinhos é uma atividade de grande importância no Brasil proporcionando a geração de emprego e renda para pescadores artesanais e comunidades pesqueiras, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento local. Entretanto, este tipo de cultivo ainda é realizado de forma bastante artesanal com intensa utilização de mão de obra. Diante disso, este estudo teve por objetivo realizar uma descrição das posturas e movimentos de maricultores durante a realização da atividade de classificação de ostras.

Abstract:

Definition and classification probably rank second only to marriage as a source of controversy, but it is not in that spirit in which I want to write; I only want to show that there may be more than one viewpoint about Mollusca. Problems of definition and classification are different. Workers may agree on the defintions of phyla and classes, yet disagree on their arrangement. Definition and classification each have two separate and distinct phases: the work itself on developing a concept; and the general acceptance of this concept. New ideas by their very nature go against prevailing opinion;

CHARACTERISTICS AND BIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF Scaphopoda (MOLLUSCS). Scaphopoda are bilaterally symmetrical marine molluscs, commonly known as the "tusk shells" because their shells are conical. There are approximately 900 species of Scaphopoda, found in soft silty marine sediments, which they burrow in search of food. Scaphopoda feeds on microorganisms, their diet dominated by foraminiferans. Hermaphroditic scaphopoda has been reported but rare. The biodiversity of Scaphopoda had been underestimated because the taxonomic and biological aspects of scaphopoda have not been well studied. Classificat

Achieving consensus on the definition of the Mollusca is fortunately not prerequisite to the exercise of taxonomic classification and phylogenetic analysis. Definitions emerge from analysis, and it is therefore germane to consider the ways in which analytic procedures and underlying assumptions may affect growth of knowledge of the Mollusca.

Coastal biodiversity plays a crucial role in maintaining the stability and productivity of marine ecosystems. Among the key contributors to these systems are marine invertebrates, particularly molluscs and crustaceans, which fulfil important ecological functions such as nutrient cycling, water filtration, and forming part of the marine food web. However, scientific data on the diversity of marine invertebrates in many Indonesian coastal regions remains limited, especially in remote areas like Labuhan Lalar Village, West Sumbawa Regency.

Standardised collecting at 15 sites yielded 7302 individuals representing 58 mollusc species.

Abstract:

Repetitive DNA sequences, satellite DNAs (satDNAs) and transposable elements (TEs) are essential components of the genome landscape, with many different roles in genome function and evolution. Despite significant advances in sequencing technologies and bioinformatics tools, detection and classification of repetitive sequences can still be an obstacle to the analysis of genomic repeats. Here, we summarize how specificities in repetitive DNA organizational patterns can lead to an inability to classify (and study) a significant fraction of bivalve mollusk repetitive sequences.

Here we elaborate the classification of Terebridae based on a recently published molecular phylogeny of 154 species, plus characters of the shell and anterior alimentary system.

The Middle Cambrian lophotrochozoans Odontogriphus omalus and Wiwaxia corrugata have been interpreted as stem-group members of either the Mollusca, the Annelida, or a group containing Mollusca + Annelida. The case for each classification rests on the organisms' unusual mouthparts, whose two to three tooth-rows resemble both the molluscan radula and the jaws of certain annelid worms. Despite their potential significance, these mouthparts have not previously been described in detail.
