Abstract:

Marine gastropods of the family Naticidae are worldwide distributed and known for their unusual predatory habits. Due to their wide distribution, the naticids are worldwide studied and known like predators of intertidal bivalves. The present study demonstrates the predation of the naticid gastropod Natica marochiensis on the bivalve Donax striatus in the northeastern region of Brazil.

Abstract:

AbstractTaxonomic status of several members of the family Naticidae is extremely vague because of its simple shell morphology. Conventional taxonomic classification schemes suggest that most of the morphological characters tend to be homoplastic and exhibit convergence. Such morphological convergence complicates naticid taxonomy and makes it difficult to understand the evolutionary history of this group; several unrelated taxa are often misidentified as naticids, thereby exaggerating the actual diversity of this group. Here, we employ a standard landmark-based approach to understand the pattern of morphological evolution of this family. Ordination methods such as principal components analysis and canonical variate analysis were used to create morphospaces, and disparity was quantified using variance and range. Our results reveal that when naticids are compared with their sister taxon, Ampullinidae, the two families show significant differences in their average shapes, despite their superficial resemblances. Among naticids, although the mean shapes of the individual subfamilies are different, overall, the family Naticidae has displayed extreme morphological conservatism from the Jurassic to the Holocene. Interestingly, this conservatism has been unaffected by taxonomic changes—neither the extinction of the subfamily Gyrodinae nor the appearance of the subfamily Sininae affected this morphological conservatism. Naticids have always shown strong ecological preference toward an infaunal mode of life and strict behavioral selectivity in handling and preying upon infaunal organisms, and this ecological and behavioral conservatism could have enabled them to diversify without undergoing a change in their basic Bauplan.

Abstract:

We investigated the occurence of members of the predatory caenogastropod family Naticidae in the littoral of the island of Giglio, Tuscany, Italy. We recorded a total of 8 species, all but one represented by both empty shells and living specimens. As most studies of Mediterranean naticids are based solely on empty shells, we here provide images of living animals for 7 out of the 8 species encountered; for several of these species this is the first photographic documentation of the animal. Our survey included a systematic collection of egg masses (”sand collars”) which were hatched in the laboratory. The larvae obtained as well as the sand collars themselves were used for molecular analysis of the species based on gene fragments of mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (COI), histone 3 (H3), the mitochondrial 16S rRNA (16S), and 18S rRNA (18S). We show that such molecular analysis allows the confirmation of the identity of naticid species without having access to adult specimens or shells. This approach identified one additional naticid species for which no adult specimens or shells were found. Additionally, our molecular analysis allows consideration of naticid phylogeny.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on traces of drilling predation in the middle Miocene gastropod assemblage of the Zaprešić Brijeg locality, Croatia, which provides further insight into the palaeoecology of the south-western margin of the Pannonian Basin System during the Badenian. The analyzed gastropod shells were collected in the first half of the 20th century, and are housed in the Croatian Natural History Museum (CNHM) in Zagreb. The CNHM Zaprešić Brijeg collections contain 11063 gastropod shells, of which 1024 have been identified as drilled (9.3% of the sample), with 633 successfully drilled, 113 unsuccessfully drilled, and 278 multiply drilled shells. The most represented families are Potamididae, Nassariidae, Clavatulidae, Turritellidae, Cerithiidae, Muricidae and Naticidae. The gastropod families Naticidae and Muricidae are recognized as the probable predators based on the shape of the drill holes. Middle Miocene (Badenian) gastropods drilling frequency at Zaprešić Brijeg is 5.72%, which is lower than the recorded Badenian gastropods drilling frequency in the Central Paratethys, while the overall gastropod prey effectiveness from the studied locality (15.15%) is higher than the average of the neighbouring Badenian localities in the Central Paratethys. Among the most represented gastropods at this locality, the highest drilling frequency occurs in the infaunal suspension feeders Turritellidae (14.45%), which mostly show traces of the naticid drilling.

Abstract:

AbstractNaticid taxonomy is in a state of flux owing to non-descript shell morphology and frequent convergence. Inadequate preservation of naticid body fossils has further complicated the matter in determining the true affinity and the exact time of origin of the clade. As a result, a plethora of classificatory schemes of naticid phylogeny and times of origin has been proposed. In many previous studies, true naticid affinities of fossils have been sought based on single or a few morphological characters, which are susceptible to poor preservation. In the present paper, we have attempted a holistic reappraisal of naticid taxonomy based on an extensive database of shell morphological characters and identified many distinct family- and subfamily-specific characters that survived fossilization. This approach has enabled us to identify three new naticid species from the Late Jurassic horizons of Kutch, India, thus extending back the time of origin of the family Naticidae by 30 Ma.Analysis of character matrix data reveals that the present species—Gyrodes mahalanobisi new species, Euspira jhuraensis new species, and Euspira lakhaparensis new species—belong to two subfamilies, Gyrodinae and Polinicinae. The occurrence of typical naticid drill holes on various coeval gastropod and bivalve taxa along with these body fossils provides strong supporting evidence for the naticid affinity of these forms.UUID http://zoobank.org/94188d64-075b-4bd0-8303-1ce9a0d86eb0

Abstract:

The present work is one of several planned articles on updating information on the biodiversity of malacofauna and palaeogeography of the Middle-Late Eocen Tavda Sea, which existed in the Western Siberia. Paper contains data on fossil species diversity of the family Naticidae of the Middle and Late Eocene West Siberian Sea and on drill holes. The drill holes indicate predator activity, prey of Naticidae and influence of abiotic factors on their behavior. Previously the invertebrate macroauna of the Eocene of Western Siberia was not studied. As a result, the biodiversity, paleogeography and paleoecology remained incompletely studied. This requires additional collecting, generalization and systematization of paleontological material.

Abstract:

AbstractPolinices marambioensis is a naticid gastropod which is the most common constituent in fossil accumulations in the upper section of the Cucullaea I Allomember (Middle Eocene) of the La Meseta Formation in James Ross Basin, Antarctic Peninsula. This species was an important predator of infaunal bivalves and gastropods, including other naticids. The aim of this work was to assess the pattern of predation and cannibalistic behaviour of P. marambioensis. A total of 2648 specimens of P. marambioensis were examined for drill holes, which were assigned to Oichnus paraboloides. Drilling frequency data were measured as a proxy for predation intensity and statistical analyses were performed. Further, the site of each drill hole was established according to the morphological features of the shell on each specimen to assess possible preference of predators for the site of perforation. Results suggest that P. marambioensis is an efficient cannibalistic predator for a specific size range of prey (8–22 mm), and drill holes are distributed preferentially in two specific sectors of their shells. This selective cannibalistic prey behaviour in P. marambioensis affected not only the dynamics of their populations but the ecological structure of the community in which they lived.

Abstract:

AbstractAs predators, Naticidae (Gastropoda) can shape marine soft-sediment communities. Thus understanding of the reproductive biology and development of moonsnails is of great importance. Most moonsnails lay large egg masses, known as sand or egg collars, which are freely distributed on sand or muddy sediments. Here we report upon the abundance of egg collars of two naticid species, Amauropsis islandica and Euspira pallida, from the high-latitude White Sea, as well as describe the morphology of egg collars and hatching success, with a brief description of juvenile feeding in A. islandica. While in the subtidal zone, the egg collars of E. pallida were 10 times more abundant than of A. islandica, the egg collars of the latter species were the only ones that occur in the intertidal zone. The morphology of an egg collar of E. pallida differed from the literature descriptions by having a plicated basal margin. The number of egg capsules inside the collars was twice as high in A. islandica compared with E. pallida, but they were smaller. Amauropsis islandica hatchlings were larger and hatching success was more than twice that in E. pallida. We suggest that these characteristics promote the high abundance of A. islandica populations observed on some tidal flats of the White Sea. Surprisingly, A. islandica juveniles could perform non-drilling feeding in the first month after hatching. This study fills the gap in the knowledge of naticid reproductive biology at high latitudes.

Abstract:

AbstractWe document and quantify one of the oldest predator–prey interactions between naticid gastropods and molluscan prey, on the basis of drill holes in shells, from the Late Jurassic (Oxfordian) beds of Kutch, western India. Previously, many workers recorded naticid-like drill holes on prey taxa from the Triassic and the Jurassic, but in the absence of associated naticid body fossils, they remained equivocal.The present gastropod community is dominated by turritellines (98% of the sample) that form the turritelline-dominated assemblage, and the naticid drilling predation is restricted almost entirely to turritellines among gastropods. Confamilial naticid predation takes place occasionally. Within the bivalve community, corbulids and nuculids are most abundant and are drilled more often than other taxa. These observations indicate that prey selection was opportunistic and based solely on availability. Drilling intensities at both assemblage and lower taxon levels are low. Behavioral stereotypy of naticid predation in some cases is moderately high.Turritellines are often the preferred prey of naticid gastropods since the late Early Cretaceous. These two groups form a recurrent association reflecting prey–predator interaction. Here we suggest that both turritellines and naticids evolved during the Jurassic, and the prey–predator interaction between them was established shortly thereafter. Among bivalves, corbulids also became important prey of naticids in the same spatiotemporal framework. Corbulids are older than naticids and first appeared during the Middle Jurassic. After their first encounter with naticids, corbulids evolved conchiolin layers within the valves to resist predation.

Abstract:

Naticid gastropods of the Chesapeake Group of Maryland, like extant naticids, apparently were cannibalistic. This cannibalism did not result from the absence of bivalve prey or from the ineptitude of the predator, as some previous authors have suggested. Instead, predation on Chesapeake Group naticids was a predictable result of prey selection to maximize energy gain per foraging time.This study examines predation onLunatia heros(530 specimens) andPolinices duplicatus(340 specimens) from the St. Marys Formation of the Chesapeake Group. Predation on naticids displayed the same characteristics as predation on bivalve prey, including selectivity of prey size and drillhole site. The two naticid species were differentially attacked, based on their relative cost-benefit ratios and escape sizes. Cannibalism is not anomalous; it is the expected result of selective predation, and is inhibited primarily by the high mobility of naticid prey.

Abstract:

The effects of diesel oil on burying and crawling behaviour in the intertidal gastropod Polinices incei are presented. Burying was examined by recording the number of animals buried after exposure to pollutant for 30 min and 24 h. Crawling activity was estimated by measuring the total length of track left in the sediment by a given number of snails over a set time. Both activities were reduced in the presence of diesel oil. Concentrations required to produce a significant response in terms of burial after 30 min and of crawling activity were greater than the 96-h LD50. Only the burying response after 24 h paralleled the 96-h LD50; its potential as an indicator of lethal effects is discussed.

Abstract:

Adult Polinices pulchellus were collected from the field and held in aquaria under ambient conditions. Egg collars laid by P. pulchellus were cultured at 14°C and 20°C and larval development after hatching was documented photographically. Planktotrophic Polinices pulchellus veligers hatched from egg collars cultured at 20°C after nine to ten days and after 14 to 15 days at 14°C. Veligers spent most of their time close to the water surface and began feeding within one hour of hatching. Repeated attempts to raise larvae to metamorphic competency at 14°C were unsuccessful. Morphological changes, most notably in the colour and size of the velum and foot, were observed in larvae raised at 20°C. During the first 25 days of larval development the velum broadened and bifurcated into four velar arms, the distal regions of which acquired a deep red coloration. By day 40 the foot had increased considerably in size and the degree of black pigmentation. By day 45 pediveligers were competent to metamorphose to the juvenile stage. Exposure to sediment from the adult habitat induced metamorphosis, larvae lost their vela and became benthic juveniles. Within three days of metamorphosis, juvenile snails drilled the bivalve Lasaea adansoni (∼2 mm), later drilled Cerastoderma edule (∼4 mm), and displayed cannibalistic behaviour. Larvae survived for ∼6 months in the absence of a suitable settlement cue.

Abstract:

The naticid gastropod predator–prey system has been cited as a possible example of coevolution. Previous work indicated that Miocene bivalves from the Chesapeake Group responded to naticid drilling with a predation-avoidance strategy of gradual thickness increase over evolutionary time. The present study examined whether the predators, Euspira heros (Say) and Neverita duplicata (Say), coevolved by increasing their efficiency in response to prey adaptation.Neither predator showed significant trends in most characters thought to affect predator efficiency, including measures of globosity and aperture size relative to shell height. Stasis occurred for all such characters except Euspira aperture height, which showed a statistically significant decrease of 9 percent through the section. Morphologic trends occurred in two additional characters, shell thickness relative to height, and shell height. Euspira increased in thickness by 63 percent through the section; Neverita decreased in thickness by 37 percent (through slightly less section) and simultaneously increased mean height by 60 percent.The size increase exhibited by Neverita could be interpreted as a coevolutionary response to increased prey defenses. Naticids are subject to predation by other naticids, however; the trends in size and thickness may be viewed instead as an evolutionary strategy to escape naticid predation, including cannibalism. Although the possibility of coevolution is difficult to eliminate, Chesapeake Group naticids appear to have evolve more in response to their own predators than to evolution of their prey.

Abstract:

AbstractDrillholes made by naticid and muricid gastropods are frequently used in evolutionary and ecological studies because they provide direct, preservable evidence of predation. The muricid Ecphora is common in many Neogene Atlantic Coastal Plain assemblages in the United States, but is frequently ignored in studies of naticid predation. We used a combination of Pliocene fossil, modern beach, and experimentally derived samples to evaluate the hypothesis that Ecphora was an important source of drillholes in infaunal bivalve prey shared with naticids. We focused on the large, thick-shelled venerid, Mercenaria, which is commonly drilled by naticids today. Laboratory experiments, modern beach samples, and the published literature confirm that naticids preferentially drill near the umbo (significant clumping of holes), show a significant correlation between prey size and predator size (estimated by outer borehole diameter), and prefer Mercenaria <50 mm antero-posterior width when other prey are present. Fossil samples containing Ecphora (with or without other large muricids) show no drillhole site stereotypy (no significant clumping, greater variability in placement), no significant predator: prey size correlation, drilled prey shells larger than the largest modern naticids could produce in an experimental setting, and drillholes larger in diameter than those estimated for the largest Pliocene naticids, thus supporting our hypothesis. Substantial overlap in the placement of holes drilled by naticids and muricids, however, made identifying predators from drillhole position problematic. The lack of overlapping ranges of prey shell thickness between fossil and other samples precluded the use of drillhole morphology to establish predator identity (e.g., ratio of inner borehole diameter to outer borehole diameter, drillhole angle). Whereas the difficulty in determining predator identity from drillholes limits the types of analyses that can be reliably performed in mixed-predator assemblages, recognizing Ecphora as a prominent drilling predator creates the opportunity to investigate previously unrecognized questions.

Abstract:

Predatory marine snails and their prey provide a unique look at many aspects of predation events, allowing behavioral inference and studies of coevolution. This study examines differential predation patterns, rates, and success of two co-occurring gastropod predator families which drill two co-occurring species of Turritella (Turritellidae: Gastropoda) in the Gulf of California. Both naticid and muricid predators, identified by the shapes of their respective boreholes, attacked the thinner-shelled Turritella leucostoma more frequently than the thicker-shelled Turritella gonostoma. Both species were drilled more frequently and more successfully by naticid, as compared to muricid, predators. Naticids drilled prey in the 40- to 70-mm size class most frequently. Prey over 100 mm in length were relatively safe from all drilling predators. Predator size (estimated by borehole diameter) in naticids was correlated with prey size in both species, but for a given-sized prey, predators on T. gonostoma were proportionally larger. There was no size correlation for muricid predators. Unsuccessful attempts (incomplete drilling) were started on the suture more often than were completed holes, for both predator families on both prey species. Naticids began drilling T. leucostoma on the suture significantly less than expected by chance. We looked for possible changes over evolutionary time by analyzing prey shells from Pleistocene and Recent storm deposits. We found no evidence of change in any aspect of implied predatory behavior over the past 100 k.y.

Se reporta que los cangrejos ermitaños tienen mayor preferencia por las conchas de la familia Naticidae, según datos recopilados es la concha más abundante en el área. En playa el Retén a 28 individuos de la familia Diogenidae, se les midieron parámetros como peso del individuo, peso y volumen de la concha. Al aplicar el coeficiente de correlación de Spearman a las variables peso del individuo y la relación peso- volumen de la concha, no se evidencia correlación entre el peso del organismo y la relación peso-volumen de la concha (p= 0,386), por lo que la disponibilidad de conchas es el parámetro que mejor explica la ocupación de conchas en playa El Retén. Esta investigación constituye un primer esfuerzo en el área y permite un conocimiento base de los patrones ecológicos que interactúan en la selección de conchas por cangrejos ermitaños.

Abstract:

This study reports on the diversity and distribution of mangrove gastropods from Kuala Selangor Nature Park sampled from August to November 2017. The line transect with quadrat method was employed to sample gastropods which were handpicked from the various mangrove structures (root, stem, branch) and mangrove floor within 5m x 5m quadrats. Nineteen gastropod taxa were recorded from the Bruguiera, mixed (Bruguiera, Avicennia & Rhizophora), and Avicennia & Rhizophora zones. The Ellobiidae (Elobium aurisjudae and Cassidula aurisfelis), Potamidae (Cerithedia obtusa, Cerithidea cingulata and Telescopium telescopium), Muricidae (Chicoreus capucinus) and Naticidae (Nerita balteata) were the most distributed gastropod families at the study site. Gastropod horizontal distribution varied between tree zones (Bruguiera; Bruguiera-Avicennia-Rhizophora; and Avicennia-Rhizophora) and tree type (Brugueira, Rhizophora and Avicennia), while gastropod vertical distribution varied based on height on tree (0 – 120cm) and sub-habitats (roots, floor and trunk) as shown by the principle components analysis (PCA) biplots. The Margalef’s species richness (D=2.90) and Shannon-Weiner diversity (H’=2.32) was low which is typical of mangroves that are mature while Pielou’s evenness (J=0.77) was high implying lack of dominance by specific gastropod taxa.

Abstract:

The fossil record from Seymour Island, Antarctic Peninsula, provides a record of biotic response to the onset of global climatic cooling during the Eocene. Using drilling traces—small, round holes preserved on prey shells—we examined the effect of a cooling pulse 41 Ma on the cannibalistic behaviour of predatory naticid gastropods. We predicted that cannibalistic attacks would decline in response to the cooling climate, reflecting reduced activity levels, energy requirements and constraints on the chemically aided drilling process of the naticids. Surprisingly, however, cannibalism frequencies did not change. This counterintuitive result is best explained by a sharp reduction in durophagous (shell-crushing) predation in shallow-benthic communities in Antarctica that also occurred as the climate cooled. Reduced durophagous predation may have created a less-risky environment for foraging naticids, stimulating cannibalistic behaviour. The change in the top-down control exerted by shell-crushing predators on naticids may have counteracted the direct, negative effects of declining temperatures on the predatory performance of naticids. Our results suggest that the long-term consequences of climate change cannot be predicted solely from its direct effects on predation, because the temperature can have large indirect effects on consumer–resource interactions, especially where risk-effects dominate.

Abstract:

Mangrove in marine ecosystem have function to help continuing food chain directly, provide food for benthics organism, include macrozoo and microzoo, and ephiphyte and indirectly as habitat, nursery ground and spawning ground (Nontji (1993), Valiela et al, (2001). This research analyzed macrozoobenthics community in mangrove forest, Penyu Island, Tanjung Benoa, and counting correlation between mangrove density and macrozoobenthics abundance. 4 mangroves species (Bruguiera gymnorrhiza, Rhizopora mucronata, Rhizopora stylosa dan Sonneratia alba) and 22 macrozoobenthics genus (Cvpraeidae, Naticidae, Cerithiidae, Mathildidae, Mitridae, Columbellidae, Buccinidae, Neritidae, Fasciolariidae, Smaragdinellidae, Littorinidae, Trochidae, Costellariidae, Terebridae, Opisthobranchia, Pyramidellomorpha, Littorinidae, Conidae, Thaididae, Potamididae, Turritellidae, Nassariidae) were identified from 3 stasions over the Island. Rhizopora stylosa have the highest importance index in Penyu Island mangroves community and than Bruguiera gymnorrhiza. The highest abundance documented in station 1 for 385.2 ind/m2 and then station 2 for 271.58 ind/m2 and the lowest is station 3 247.71 ind/m2. Cerithium sp recorded as dominant species and Turritella cochlea and Cyprae kieneri as inferior species. Macrozoobenthos community in Penyu Island is being stable base d on high diversity index, moderate eveness index and low dominance index. The regression equation acquired Y = -60.524X + 119.94 and revealed correlation 40.05% and explain 16.04% macrozoobenthics varians. From the study inconclusive there are no correlation between mangroves density and macrozoobenthics abundance.

Abstract:

Two life positions of fossil naticid opercula are recognized in Pliocene deposits of Hokkaido, northern Japan. In one position, the operculum seals the aperture. In the other position, the operculum is pressed against the shell base adjacent to the aperture. The death position of the head-foot mass can be reconstructed from the two opercular positions, which coincide, respectively, to naticids that died with the head-foot mass retracted into the shell, and those that died with it entirely extended from the shell.

Abstract:

AbstractParatectonatica tigrina employs three predatory tactics against bivalve prey: wall-drilling, edge-drilling and non-drilling (suffocation) tactics. In this study, we conducted laboratory experiments to examine the predator–prey interactions between the naticid gastropod P. tigrina and two species of bivalve prey, Ruditapes philippinarum and Meretrix lusoria, and to investigate how predatory tactics differ for the bivalve species. Predation success increased with the shell weight ratio between predator and prey, however, there was no significant difference among prey species. The shell weight ratio significantly differed (P < 0.05) between predatory tactics against R. philippinarum, but not against M. lusoria, implying that P. tigrina determines its predatory tactics based on the shell weight ratio for R. philippinarum. However, we observed that feeding duration was not influenced by shell weight ratio or prey species, even though data were separated for each predatory tactic. These results suggest that there is no difference in feeding efficiency based on shell weight ratio between prey species and between predatory tactics. Paratectonatica tigrina may alter its predatory tactics suitably depending on the prey species and the relative size difference, despite the same feeding efficiency.

ABSTRACT Mapping of Phanerozoic rocks at 1:250,000 scale by joint teams from the Saudi Arabian Deputy Ministry for Mineral Resources and the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières since 1980 has covered most of the Jurassic outcrops in central Saudi Arabia. Stratigraphic, sedimentologic and paleogeographic studies provided a precise framework for collected gastropod faunas that could be calibrated against ammonite zones and sequence-stratigraphic zones. Of more than 600 samples collected, about 440 gastropod specimens could be determined on at least a generic level. Their age range is from Bajocian to Oxfordian–Kimmeridgian. They correspond to 26 genera and 35 species from the Euomphalidae, Ataphridae, Pseudomelaniidae, Coelostylinidae, Procerithiidae, Nerineidae, Purpurinidae, Aporrhaidae, Naticidae, Acteonidae, Retusidae, and Akeridae families. Twelve species are new, and three (Kosmomphalus and Bifidobasis in the Euomphalidae, and Striatoonia in the Pseudomelaniidae) were proposed for new taxa of generic or subgeneric rank. Most of the identified species are of Middle Jurassic age, mainly Bathonian and Callovian and only six are Late Jurassic. All species are typical of an internal platform environment (upper infralittoral), in a lagoonal to back-reef setting, but some also colonized the external platform in the lower infralittoral fore-reef zone. Paleogeographically, most of the species are related to European and Sinai faunas; only seven are equivalent to North African or East African faunas, and one only was reported from Madagascar.
