Hello, I am trying to put together an analysis of the biological traits for these bivalves and gastropods (listed below). I am having a hard time finding much information of these three traits specifically. If anybody would like to provide their expertise or knows of an available source of knowledge on these traits for these species it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Carey Gelpi ADULT LIFE HABIT sessile, tube permanent attachment, tube semi-permanent attachment, burrower, surface crawler, faculative swimmers REPRODUCTIVE STRATEGY asexual, sexual with planktroph larvae, sexual with lecitotroph larvae, sexual with brooding / direct development. FEEDING HABIT suspension-feeder, surface deposit-feeder, sub-surface deposit-feeder, grazer, carnivorous / scavenger, omnivorous Oliva sayana Nassarius acutus Anachis obesa Terebra dislocata Polinices duplicatus Natica pusilla Sigatica semisulcata Epitonium angulatum Cyclostremella humilis Solariorbis blakei Parviturboides interruptus Bittium varium Strigilla pisiformis Tellina iris Tellina versicolor Tellina alternata Macoma pulleyi Macoma tenta Mulinia lateralis Raeta plicatella Trigoniocardia antillarum Nuculana concentrica Abra aequalis Diplodonta soror Parvilucina multilineata Linga amiantus Lirophora clenchi Lirophora latilirata Solen viridis Dosinia discus Pandora trilineata Anadara transversa Anadara brasiliana Periploma margaritaceum Corbula chittyana Corbula swiftiana ---------------------------------------------------------------------- [log in to unmask] - a forum for informal discussions on molluscs To leave this list, click on the following web link: http://listserv.uga.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=conch-l&A=1 Type your email address and name in the appropriate box and click leave the list. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
