This study deals with detailed morphology and anatomy of 4 species of Scaphopoda and 5 species of protobranch Bivalvia. Both classes are traditionally grouped in the taxon Diasoma, which has been questioned by different methodologies, such as molecular ...

ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

Zooarchaeological Analysis of an Atoll Assemblage From Central Micronesia
ABSTRACT There has been a dearth of archaeological research on atolls in the central‐eastern Caroline Islands of Micronesia. This has limited our understanding of pre‐contact subsistence and settlement strategies in these more marginal and remote environments, particularly in regards to zooarchaeological data.

Sulphide-induced metal precipitation in the mantle edge of Macoma balthica (Bivalvia, Tellinidae) - a means of detoxification [PDF]
The blackening of tissues or mucus of benthic animals from sulphidic environments is a remarkable phenomenon whose ecological interpretation is disputed. In the Baltic clam Macoma balthica the mantle edge turned black after sulphide exposure owing to numerous precipitates in the extracellular matrix underneath the epidermal cells.

The Sanriku‐oki forearc basin along the Northeast Japan arc was transferred from the Cretaceous to Paleogene bay‐to‐estuarine basin restricted by the uplifted trench slope break to the Neogene open‐marine deltaic to slope basin due to a large‐scale subsidence, possibly related to the changes in the subducting plate condition.

Ray bioturbation rates suggest they shape estuary processes
This study used aerial drones to map daily ray bioturbation activity and extrapolated these patterns using aerial imagery to assess sediment displaced annually by rays during foraging activities at an estuary scale. Our results indicated rays displaced 1.20 (±0.68) tonnes of sediment per day within a 1443 m2 area in the Brisbane Water estuary.
