A Cenozoic Record of Deep Oceanic Zn Isotopic Composition in Ferromanganese Crusts
Water plays a critical role in erosion and sediment transport and this relationship is most
evident in the hyperarid Atacama Desert of Northern Chile, a region characterized by …

Testing the influence of sediment depth on drilling behaviour of Neverita duplicata (Gastropoda: Naticidae), with a review of alternative modes of predation by naticids
Predatory naticid gastropods typically attack other infaunal molluscs by drilling holes that
record their activities in the shells of their prey. Other modes of naticid predation, which need …

The microbiota of moon snail egg collars is shaped by host-specific factors
ABSTRACT Moon snails (Family: Naticidae) lay eggs using a mixture of mucus and
sediment to form an egg mass commonly referred to as an egg collar. These egg collars do …

Gastropod skeletal defences: land, freshwater, and sea compared
G Vermeij - Vita Malacologica, 2015 - repository.naturalis.nl
Predation is a primary agency of natural selection affecting the evolution of skeletal form in
gastropods. The nature of antipredatory defence depends on how predators attack their prey …

Identifying gastropod spawn from DNA barcodes: possible but not yet practicable
Identifying life stages of species with complex life histories is problematic as species are
often only known and/or described from a single stage. DNA barcoding has been touted as …

First elucidation of the life cycle in the family Brachycladiidae (Digenea), parasites of marine mammals
Digeneans of the family Brachycladiidae are cosmopolitan parasites restricted to marine
mammals. Their life cycles are unknown. Phylogenetically, Brachycladiidae are closely …

Family Naticidae (Gastropoda) from the Upper Jurassic of Kutch, India and a critical reappraisal of taxonomy and time of origination of the family
Naticid 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 …
