Appendix X: Year 1 results: feeding ecology of the introduced predatory snail Euglandina rosea Feeding ecology of the introduced predatory snail Euglandina rosea (Férussac) in Hawai‘i: implications for the preservation of native land snail species
Introduction The introduction of the land snail Euglandina rosea, which feeds exclusively on snails, has been implicated as a major factor influencing the decline of the native Hawaiian land snail fauna (Hadfield 1986). It was introduced to Hawaii in 1955 to control populations of another introduced snail, Achatina fulica, the giant African snail (Davis & Butler 1964, Simberloff 1995, Civeyrel ...
متن کاملSalinity-induced heterokairy in an upper-estuarine population of the snail Radix balthica (Mollusca: Pulmonata)
Climate change is predicted to increase sea level and cause saline intrusion of coastal freshwaters. This will have consequences for freshwater organisms inhabiting such areas; developmental phenotypic plasticity may facilitate the persistence of freshwater species under such scenarios of increased salinity. Here we investigated developmental plasticity under different salinity treatments (S = ...
متن کاملLand snails (Mollusca: Gastropoda) of India: status, threats and conservation strategies
The tropics have faced massive biodiversity loss due to intensive anthropogenic activities such as changes in land use and degradation of environment. Recent reports suggest that the tropics are losing biodiversity at an alarming rate (Sodhi 2008). Much of this biodiversity loss has been reported for vertebrates and plants. However, there is very little knowledge on the extent of loss in lesser...
متن کاملdevelopment and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle
in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
