Oxidative stress indicators in populations of the gastropod Buccinanops globulosus affected by imposex
(Cambridge University Press, 2015-12)
The gastropod Buccinanops globulosus is commonly used as a bioindicator of tributyltin (TBT) contamination due to its high imposex incidence in maritime traffic areas. The aim of this study was to evaluate both oxidative ...
Shell shape variation in the Nassariid Buccinanops globulosus in northern Patagonia
(Springer, 2013-09)
Morphological variation among natural populations is a phenomenon commonly observed in marine invertebrates and well studied, particularly, in shelled gastropods. The nassariid Buccinanops globulosus is interesting to study ...
Age estimation methods in the marine gastropod Buccinanops globulosus comparing shell marks and opercula growth rings
(Taylor & Francis As, 2016-09)
Age determination in gastropods is an essential tool for understanding the main aspects of population dynamics that allow for the formation of fisheries policies. Small-scale fisheries of the nassariid gastropod Buccinanops ...
PAHs contamination in edible gastropods from north Patagonian harbor areas
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2018-10)
PAHs are persistent pollutants released into the environment by fossil fuels burning and leak during petroleum operations. Associated with suspended particles upon entering marine ecosystem are accumulated by benthic fauna. ...
Variability of imposex development and reproductive alterations in the Patagonian gastropod Buccinanops globulosus inhabiting a polluted harbour area
(Museo Argentino de Ciencias Naturales "Bernardino Rivadavia", 2015-10)
El objetivo de este trabajo fue estudiar parámetros reproductivos y desarrollo de imposex en el caenogasterópodo Buccinanops globulosus que habita en una zona portuaria de alto tráfico marítimo y con presencia de contaminantes. ...
Description of the radula of buccinanops globulosus (Neogastropoda, Nassariidae) and an assessment of its variability in northern Patagonian gulfs
(Institute of Malacology, 2010-10)
The variation observed in the number of cusps (rachidian and laterals) and in height of central rachidian cusps among and within populations of B. globulosus do not involves the general radular morphology. These differences ...
Comparative study of the female gametogenic cycle in three populations of Buccinanops globulosus (Caenogastropoda: Nassariidae) from Patagonia
(Springer, 2015-03)
The populations of Buccinanops globulosus from three different sites of northern Patagonia were compared in the female reproductive cycle over a 2-year study period (September 2006–August 2008). These populations differed ...
Sexual dimorphism in the shell of a nassariid gastropod. A 3D geometric morphometrics approach
(Cambridge University Press, 2017-03)
Among gastropods, dimorphism is reported in shell size, radular characteristic, and to a lesser extent in shell shape. The relationship of dimorphic characters of the shell with spawning is scarcely studied in literature. ...
Acute toxicity of tributyltin to encapsulated embryos of a marine gastropod
(Taylor & Francis, 2018-01)
The marine gastropod Buccinanops globulosus is known to have high imposex incidence in areas moderately polluted by tributyltin (TBT). Acute toxicity was previously studied in adults but no information is known about ...
