This paper focuses on traces of drilling predation in the middle Miocene gastropod assemblage Zaprešić Brijeg locality, Croatia, which provides further insight into palaeoecology south-western margin Pannonian Basin System during Badenian. The analyzed shells were collected first half 20th century, and are housed Croatian Natural History Museum (CNHM) Zagreb. CNHM collections contain 11063 shel...

The last 7000 years of environmental history for Paoay Lake and its surrounding landscape is examined through the analysis of pollen, diatoms, charcoal, mineral magnetics and AMS dating. Basal sediments contain shells of Cerithiidae and the saline-tolerant diatom Diploneis indicating that this was an estuarine environment before becoming a freshwater lake after 6000 BP. Pollen analysis shows th...

The Cerithioidea is a very diverse group of gastropods with ca. 14 extant families and more than 200 genera occupying, and often dominating, marine, estuarine, and freshwater habitats. While the composition of Cerithioidea is now better understood due to recent anatomical and ultrastructural studies, the phylogenetic relationships among families remain chaotic. Morphology-based studies have pro...

Penelitian ini dilakukan pada ketiga pulau kecil yang ada di Bangka Belitung yaitu Pulau Putri, Panjang dan Semujur. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk mengetahui keanekaragaman bivalvia gastropoda berdasarkan karakteristik masing-masing pulau. Metode digunakan metode Purposive sampling dengan teknik transek garis pengambilan tegak lurus terhadap pantai. Stasiun terdiri dari 3 stasiun 5 plot pencup...

The fronds of marine macroalgae play an important role in coastal ecosystems because the algae banks are utilized as a microhabitat by different taxa, including molluscs, one of the most abundant and diverse animals of marine ecosystems. In this study, we characterized the malacofauna associated with the macroalgae Gracilaria domingensis (Kützing) Sonder ex Dickie 1874 and Gracilaria cuneata Ar...

Komunitas gastropoda sangat penting sebagai komponen dalam rantai makanan dan dekomposisi di ekosistem mangrove. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mendeskripsikan struktur komunitas (komposisi spesies, pola sebaran, kepadatan, indeks keanekaragaman) pada mangrove Pulau Padaidori, Kepulauan Padaido, Kabupaten Biak Numfor. Ada dua stasiun yang dipilih dilakukan pengambilan sampel. Periode sampel ber...
