The combination of mountain landforms and heavy precipitations generates favorable conditions for landslides, which play an important role in nature, with effects on ecosystem function diversity. Gastropods, due to their abundance, diversity, sensitivity environmental factors low dispersibility, are excellent organisms study the natural anthropogenic perturbations. objectives this were conduct ...

Many bivalves and gastropods from marine reducing environments such as deep ocean hydrothermal vents seeps host chemosynthetic bacteria in a nutritional symbiosis. Despite their functional similarities, the distribution of chemosymbiosis these two mollusk classes is surprisingly uneven: number bivalve species known to symbionts more than twenty times that gastropods, chemosymbiotic are reported...
