Shorter but thicker: analysis of internal growth bands in shells of intertidal vs. subtidal Antarctic limpets, Nacella concinna, reflects their environmental adaptation
(Springer, 2020-02)
The limpet Nacella concinna is a dominant macroinvertebrate along the coastal Antarctic Peninsula with two ecotypes inhabiting intertidal and subtidal areas, respectively. The ecological aim of the study was to understand ...
Morphological shell variation of Zidona dufresnei (Caenogastropoda: Volutidae) from the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Desarrollo Pesquero, 2020)
The volutid gastropod Zidona dufresnei is an important fishery resource from the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean. This species exhibits strong interpopulation differences in life history features, which lead to postulate the ...
Biogeographic shell shape variation in trophon Geversianus (gastropoda: muricidae) along the Southwestern Atlantic coast
(Society for Sedimentary Geology, 2018-11)
Broad-scale latitudinal morphological trends in gastropods along the southwestern Atlantic coast are scant, since the majority of studies have focused on local scales. Here, we evaluate biogeographic shell shape variation ...
Does Shell shape variation play a role in conservation of the long-lived freshwater bivalve Diplodon chilensis (Bivalvia, Hyriidae)?
(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2017-12)
Freshwater bivalves of the order Unionoida display an uncommon phenotypic plasticity with high interpopulation and intrapopulation morphological variability, which could be advantageous for coping with habitat modifications. ...
