Allometric shell growth in infaunal burrowing bivalves: examples of the archiheterodonts Claibornicardia paleopatagonica (Ihering, 1903) and Crassatella kokeni Ihering, 1899 [PDF]
We present two cases of study of ontogenetic allometry in outlines of bivalves using longitudinal data, a rarity among fossils, based on the preserved post-larval record of shells.

Comparative Assessment of Fatty Acids in Clams From Capo Peloro Lagoon (Sicily). [PDF]
The total fat content and fatty acid profile were evaluated in three species of edible clam (R. decussatus, P. aureus and C. glaucum) from the Capo Peloro and Oliveri‐Tindari lagoons in Sicily, as well as in R. decussatus from two Sardinian lagoons. All species exhibited a high saturated fatty acid content, a good level of DHA, and high‐quality lipids.

A CYTOGENETICAL STUDY ON RED SEA MARINE BIVALVEIVALVES DOSINIA RADIATA (VENERIDAE: MOLLUSCA) [PDF]
Chromosomal analysis and electrophoretic studies were performed on six colour morphs of Dosinia radiata species collected from he same site (54 kms south of Quesir) on the Red Sea coast. Chromosomes were counted in preparations of gonads and gill tissues.

Reviews and syntheses: The clam before the storm – a meta-analysis showing the effect of combined climate change stressors on bivalves [PDF]
The impacts of climate change on marine organisms have been increasingly documented in laboratory and experimental studies. However, the use of different taxonomic groupings and the assessment of a range of processes make identifying overall trends ...

Disturbance of shallow marine soft-bottom environments and megabenthos assemblages by a huge tsunami induced by the 2011 M9.0 Tohoku-Oki earthquake. [PDF]
Huge tsunami waves associated with megathrust earthquakes have a severe impact on shallow marine ecosystems. We investigated the impact of a tsunami generated by the 2011 M9.0 Tohoku-Oki earthquake on the seafloor and large benthic animals in muddy and ...

Species richness and biogeographical affinities of the marine molluscs from Bahía de Chamela, Mexico [PDF]
For more than 10 years (2007-2018), the benthic macroinvertebrates of Bahía de Chamela (Mexican Pacific) were sampled at 31 sites (0-25 m depth). A total of 308 species of the five main classes of benthic molluscs were obtained (106 bivalves, 185 ...
