Abstract:
The Muricanthus radix/ambiguus/nigritus complex includes species with a great diversity of shell shapes and shared habitats in various regions, which has raised questions and doubts about the current taxonomic classification of these species. Muricanthus nigritus, M. radix, and M. ambiguus are three similar-looking black and white murex found commonly on the west coast of North and South America. The wide variety of morphological patterns within and between these species makes the classification of specimens difficult by visual observation. To this day, controversy persists over whether M. rad

Abstract:
Biological parameters, in addition to physical parameters, are important in determining past ecology, taphonomy and the effects of human intervention. Research conducted on a Recent community of gastropods and two late Pleistocene fossil assemblages from Puerto Penasco, Mexico, reveal a complex pattern of interrelationships among gastropod shell users. First, shell representation is biased in the intertidal of Puerto Penasco, Mexico, because of a complex mosaic of secondary shell occupants. Hermit crabs (five species) represent almost half (47%) of the intertidal gastropod shell resource avail

Abstract:
Scanning electron microscopic studies (SEM) revealed that the radula of Muricanthus kuesterianus resembled that of Muricanthus virgineus in most details. But there were some apparent differences. In Muricanthus kuesterianus rachidian tooth have a broad base than that of Muricanthus virgineus. The base of the median cusp was broad, short, stout and pointed straight towards the anterior end. The left lateral cusp elongated, sharp, slightly bent and pointed outwards and the right lateral cusp dorso ventrally flattened and the anterior end small, slightly pointed. In between the median and left la

Abstract:
Background: Currently, there is no fishery regulation for Hexaplex (Muricanthus) nigritus in northwestern Mexico. The size composition of gastropod H. nigritus was recorded from five islands of Navachiste Bay, Sinaloa (Gulf of California, Mexico). Methods: Samples were taken every two months from February to December 2018. Islands established a georeferenced GPS station: Guasayeye, La Huitussera, Tesobiate, El Metate and San Lucas, Sinaloa, Mexico. The snail H. nigritus was collected in the littoral zone of the islands during the low tide syzygy tides. The organisms were collected directly at
