In total, 205 species-group names are available and not permanently invalid. However, estimating the actual species diversity of Siphonaria has remained challenging, mainly because past authors have interpreted differently the variation of shell characters...
متن کاملA checklist of land snails from the west coast islands of Sabah, Borneo (Mollusca, Gastropoda)
Sabah, situated in one of the world's biodiversity hotspots, has the largest number of islands in Malaysia with more than 500 of various sizes and degrees of isolation. However, information on the islands' biodiversity is limited. This study provides an up-to-date checklist of land snail species found on 24 west coast islands in Sabah. A total of 67 species (nearly 20% of the total number of la...
متن کاملShort - term sediment trap fluxes from Chatham Rise , southwest Pacific Ocean
Sediment trap, nephelometer, and particulate matter (PM) data were collected in the vicinity of the Subtropical Convergence, north of Chatham Rise (42-43”S), southwest Pacific Ocean, in austral autumn 1992. Free-floating cylindrical sediment traps were deployed below the euphotic zone at 200-, 300-, and 500-m water depths. Increases in total mass flux and concomitant proportional decreases in o...
متن کاملIntraoceanic subduction spanned the Pacific in the Late Cretaceous–Paleocene
The notorious ~60° bend separating the Hawaiian and Emperor chains marked a prominent change in the motion of the Pacific plate at ~47 Ma (million years ago), but the origin of that change remains an outstanding controversy that bears on the nature of major plate reorganizations. Lesser known but equally significant is a conundrum posed by the pre-bend (~80 to 47 Ma) motion of the Pacific plate...
