Naticid gastropods live and forage in the intermareal zone, and are commonly known to prey on bivalve mollusks. Understanding the interspecific predatory relationship of mollusks is important for the functional characterization of the trophic chain. The objective was to study the predation among the naticid gastropod Natica marochiensis on the biva...

Length-weight relationships of three freshwater mussel species (Hyriidae), Eastern Amazon: the length-weight relationships allow important biological estimates for the fisheries management of species. Through this relationship, it is possible to estimate the weight of the individuals by their lengths, from which the biomass of the studied populatio...

In the study, we compare the shell shape morphometrics in four species of neritid gastropods ( Nerita fulgurans , Nerita tessellata , Nerita peloronta and Nerita versicolor ), collected in Accra Beach (Barbados Island). We tested the hypothesis that the morphometric ratios can be used as a tool in the taxonomic determination among these four specie...

Abstract In the last decades the oyster faming stands out as the main mitigating measure to the decline of the fishery, as it presents socio-economic and environmental viability. However, for the success of the activity, it is necessary to understand the stages of cultivation, as well as the growth performance of the species to be cultivated. The p...

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...

O biofouling é um dos principais problemas que acometem cultivos de ostras. Neste estudo, objetivou-se testar a hipótese de que a riqueza e a abundância do macrobentos que compõe o biofouling estão associadas à área de superfície da ostra Crassostrea tulipa cultivada no rio Urindeua, Pará. Para tanto, realizaram-se nove coletas entre maio de 2016 e...

Os recursos pesqueiros (e.g., peixes, crustáceos e moluscos) compõem a dieta alimentar das populações, pois representa uma fonte de proteína. Neste contexto, os moluscos bivalves apresentam elevada importância ecológica e socioeconômica, principalmente para comunidades que vivem as margens dos rios. Desta forma, o presente trabalho registra a utili...

The widespread occurrence of marine gastropods in coastal regions is a straightforward evidence of successful adaptation to different environments. In the Caribbean Sea, as one of Conservation International’s biodiversity hotspots, little is known about the gastropod fauna, especially in the Eastern Caribbean. The present study contributed to bridg...

Nos ambientes aquáticos, sejam de água doce ou ambiente costeiro, um componente biológico de grande destaque é a fauna bentônica (ou simplesmente, bentos). O bentos é composto por representantes de diversos filos, que vivem em contato (sobre ou incluso) com o substrato durante toda a vida ou parte dela. A fauna bentônica é composta por animais que...

Macroecology provides a novel conceptual framework for analysis of the distribution and abundance of organisms at very large scales. Its rapid development in recent years has been driven primarily by studies of terrestrial taxa; the vast potential of marine systems to contribute to the macroecological research effort remains largely untapped. Inter...

This study examines whether or not biogeographical and/or managerial divisions across the European seas can be validated using soft-bottom macrobenthic community data. The faunal groups used were: all macrobenthos groups, polychaetes, molluscs, crustaceans, echinoderms, sipun- culans and the last 5 groups combined. In order to test the discriminati...

Local species diversity may be determined by processes operating locally, such as disturbance, predation and competition, or by regional processes, such as environmental structuring or history. Classical theory focusing on competition predicts that the species combining to form communities will be less similar to each other than they would be if th...

The pan-European MacroBen database was used to compare the AZTI Marine Biotic Index (AMBI) and the Benthic Quality Index (BQIES), 2 biotic indices which rely on 2 distinct assessments of species sensitivity/tolerance (i.e. AMBI EG and BQI E[S50]0.05) and which up to now have only been compared on restricted data sets. A total of 12 409 stations wer...

There is much speculation about the easternmost distribution of Alloteuthis subulata. It is very common in the North Sea and regularly, although not abundant, occurring in the Kattegat, whereas recordings from the Baltic Sea are sparse and mostly anecdotic. Here we report on an unusual collection of 18 specimens which were sampled in January 2001 i...
