Parachondria neglectus is a land snail of the Annulariidae family, endemic to Cuba and microlocalized in Granma province. In the present research, the temporal dynamics of age-related subniche and some aspects of the reproductive biology of a P. neglectus population, located in Manzanillo-Granma-Cuba, were characterized.

Using fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the animal diet of black rails, yellow rails, and soras
We used fecal DNA metabarcoding to investigate the diet of yellow rails, Eastern black rails, and sora during the non‐breeding season. Arthropods, particularly ants, were prevalent in their diets, suggesting possible interactions with invasive red imported fire ants.

The snail Trochita trochiformis is a mollusk captured on the coasts of Jalisco and Guerrero of the Mexican Pacific. Despite its importance in artisanal fisheries, information on its population parameters is still being determined. This research aimed to determine the diameter-weight relationship, sex ratio, cohorts, and growth of this species ...

Large‐Scale Environmental Drivers of Kelp Biofouling Based on Literature Data
Our findings from data compiled from a systematic literature review and databases of marine data show that kelp biofouling species are linked to environmental conditions and specifically temperature for bryozoans, salinity for gastropods, and the type of kelp population (wild vs. not wild) for hydrozoans.

The evolutionary history and ecological adaptation of Capulus danieli (Littorinimorpha, Capulidae) [PDF]
Capulus danieli, a distinct member of Capulidae, with a limpet-shaped shell, exhibits a unique ecological behaviour by attaching and drilling onto the shells of scallops, distinguishing itself from other members of the gastropod class, offering a compelling case for evolutionary and ecological study. This ...

ABSTRACTThe gastropod radula is highly diverse in structure in comparison with that of other mollusсs. The main radular types in the different phylogenetic groups of gastropods differ not only in the general morphology and configuration of the teeth but also in the mode of tooth synthesis and the ultrastructure of the formation zone.
