How the mollusc got its scales: convergent evolution of the molluscan scleritome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Radiation of dramatically disparate forms among the phylum Mollusca remains a key question in metazoan evolution, and requires careful evaluation of homology of hard parts throughout the deep fossil record. Enigmatic early Cambrian taxa such as Halkieria

Differentielle Expression und molekulare Evolution von Mollusken-Hämocyanin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Molekularbiologische und biochemische Untersuchungen an den zwei Gastropoden-Arten Haliotis tuberculata und Haliotis asinina zeigten, dass diese jeweils zwei unterscheidbare Hämocyanin-Isoformen (HtH1/HaH1 und HtH2/HaH2) besitzen, die in ...

Chiton phylogeny (Mollusca Polyplacophora) and the placement of the enigmatic species Choriplax grayi (H. Adams & Angas)

open access: yes, 2013
Shallow marine chitons (Mollusca:Polyplacophora:Chitonida) are widespread and well described from established morphoanatomical characters, yet key aspects of polyplacophoran phylogeny have remained unresolved.

Aesthete Pattern Diversity in Chiton Clades (Mollusca: Polyplacophora): Balancing Sensory Structures and Strength in Valve Architecture

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 285, Issue 11, November 2024.
Synchrotron X‐ray μCT reveals the internal structures of chiton shells. Dense sensory channels of the aesthete network evolved from simpler vertical configurations found in Lepidopleurida to more complex, coalescing networks in Chitonida. ABSTRACT Chitons possess the most elaborate system of shell pores found in any hard‐shelled invertebrate.

On the Permian Chitonidæ [PDF]

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Geological Society of London
The discovery of Chiton Loftusianus at Tunstall Hill, in 1844, by Messrs. Loftus and King, introduced the family Chitonidæ into the List of the Permian Fauna*. For several years this species remained its sole representative; but in 1856 another species was found in the same locality, and in ...

Feasting in mussel farms fattens up snapper (Chrysophrys auratus) compared to snapper in adjacent natural habitats

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 4, Issue 2, April 2024.
Abstract The presence of wild fish in and around aquaculture habitats is often assumed a response to food resources within these habitats, either from input feed, the presence of cultured species, and/or the assemblage of biofouling that naturally colonises aquaculture structures.
