INTRODUCTION 


It is becoming increasingly difficult for a worker in the field of biology 
to keep up with the current events and publications, Even with "modern" methods 
of publishing and mailing of material there exist great time lags in the 
dissemination of information, Subscriptions to current journals and the main- | 
taining of personal correspondence help to alleviate this lag; but do not provide 
the final answer, If each worker wrote to every other worker each month, the 
problem would be greatly decreased; but this is difficult, if not impossihle,. 
This newsletter is an attempt to cope with the problem, and make CURRENT useful 
information availeble to the largest possible mummber of workers in the field, 
It is offered as a service, not as an attempt to found another association where 
there are already many functioning. We hope that the newsletter will provide a 
central gathering place for all types of information relating to the field of 
opisthobranckj mollusks, 


The animals to be covered are opisthobranchs and their allies, ‘this would 
include; but not be limited to the following: Nudibranchs, Tectibranchs, 
Pteropods, Lamellarians, and Onchidaceans, ‘The broad categories of information 
to be included are as follows: 


READER FORUM: To include ANYTHING which the users feel would be of interest to 
other readers as a topic for thought and/or discussion (e.g. Value of radulae or 
reproductive systems as a character for generic separation), Any suggested 
changes or additions to the newsletter will either be acted upon directly, or 
printed in the newsletter for other readers! camments,

COMING AND CURRENT EVENTS 


The Second Annual Meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists was held 
on June 18-21, 1969 at the Asilamar Conference Grounds in Pacific Grove, 
California, Two of the three student papers presented on the first day of the 
meeting were concerned with nudibranchs, They were: 


"Predation by Dirona albolineata (Opisthobranchia) on Lacuna spp, and 
Margarites spp, (Prosobranchia)," by Gordon A, Robilliard, Friday Harbor 
Laboratories, Friday Harbor, Washington. (with slides) 


"A Swimmer, The Secretor, and the Blue Tiger (Three Nudibranchs fran the 
Gulf of California)." by Wesley M. Farmer, Dept. of Zoology, Arizona State 
University, Tempe, Arizona, (with slides and 8mm. film) 


Both of these papers were well received by the audience, and were awarded 
first and second prizes respectively, Our congratulations to Mr, Robilliard 
and Mr, Farmer! ! 


At the conclusion of the general meeting, on the first night, opisthobranch 
specialists in attendance gathered for a comparison of slides of various 
opisthobranchs from the Friday Harbor and Central California areas, and a 
general discussion of current topics of interest in the field, See you there 
next yeartiiiiisss

READER _FORUM 


The following note came fram Mr. Allyn G, Smith, Chairman, Dept. of 
Invertebrate Zoology, California Academy of Sciences, San Francisco, Ca, 
94118 : 


" ..eeeee (The Academy contemplates) the proper designation and accession 
of MacFarland's type specimens under existing Rules of Zoological Nanenclature, 
using his published work and the specimens in his collection. MacFarland was a 
master anatomist, not a systematist; hence, nowhere in his work did he designate 
type specimens of his new species, ‘Therefore the actual specimens that he used 
in his new species desctiptions (regardless of thekr present legality of the 
names applied) becane syntypes, fran which a suitable lectotype and, where : 
possible, lectoparatypes should be selected and given numbers in the CAS 
Invertebrate Type Series, This is canplicated by the fact that many of MacFarland's) 
original specimens were dissected and all that may be available now consist of 
microscope slide-mounts of anatomical parts, including serial sections, 


This is a job for some capable person who is interested and who has the 
time to devote to it. Any takers? "

The following note from Mr, Jack Brookshire: 


"Iet's set some generalized standards for (1) illustrations of animals, 
(2) formal descriptions of species, (3) bibliography, and many other rules of 
the game, All of these things appear one place and another and are followed, 
more or less, Ultimately, there might as well be a standard, 


Anyway, since this newsletter group treats a restricted mmber of animal 
groups you can set standards and adhere to them without having to ‘bend a little! 
because of particular circumstances ,"' 


(Any reader camments on this subject will be appreciated!!!)

While on this subject (standardization), it has been suggested by Mr. 
Wesley M, Farmer that color descriptions be standardized in same manner, 
possibly using the artist color charts of Grumbacher, Inc. These seems to 
be a feasible idea, and might be considered by others, These color charts 
may be obtained free of charge fran: M. Grumbacher, Inc., 460 West 34th St., 
New York, N.Y, 10001, Ask for charts on: "Gainsborough, Pre-tested, Hyplar,

San Diego, not only acheived her ambition of collecting opisthobranchs in Southern 
California during her first visit to the United States; but was also a guest of 
San Diego's famed Balboa Zoo and Sea World. In Los Angeles, she was the guest of 
honor at a dinner reception, and then delivered a lecture at the Los Angeles 
County Museum on the zoological highlights of her late husband, Prof, Ernst Marcus, 
University of Sao Paulo, Brazil, later she was driven to Santa Barbara to see a 
film on nudibranchs and their allies. She will continue on her travels to Chicago, 
Montreal, Miami, Florida, and finally she will arrive in Sao Paulo, where she will 
continue her late husband's work with the shelleless mollusks, Both of your 
editors had the pleasure of visiting and collecting with Mrs. Marcus while she 
was in San Diego. 


Mr, Hans Bertsch, of Berkeley, California, has returned from several weeks 
stay at the Las Cruces Biological Station at Las Cruces, Baja California, It 
seems as though the collecting there was very worthwhile, as Hans has collected 
what appear to be several new forms of opisthobranchs fram that area, We are — 
anxiously awaiting the reports of thig collecting trip.

Qne of your editors (RAR) was recently very graciously hosted at the 
Friday Harbor Laboratories by Dr. Tan E. Thompson and Mr, Gordon A, Robilliard, 
This was a new area of collecting for me, and I was able to see most of the 
opisthobranchs from that area, I also met Mrs, Sandra Crane, of Simon Frasfer 
University, who was working with Olea hansineensis Agersborg, 1923. She has 
made same very interesting discoveries in regard to this animal, Dr. Thempson 
has now finished his summers's stay at Friday Harbor, and is returning to Bristol.

READER FORUM 


Note from J. Lance, re Mr. Wesley Farmer's call for standardized color 
charts: "There are approximately 27 color charts in use in the Western World 
(about 8 of them deal with botany, about 6 are concerned with insects - 
especially beetles =-, another 8-10 deal specifically with marine & fresh= 
water algae. The remainder deal with animal color. I surmise that there is 
no standard color chart that can be uded for the naming of animal colors in 
the Western World. Hue and degree of tint can be measured by mechanical means - 
it cannot be described cocce'e 


IBSRRSHE RE RARAEREEAR EER 


Editor's Notes It has been suggested by Mr. Risso-Dominguez and others, that 
the READER FORUM would be an excellent place to discuss some of the taxonomic 
problems of the opisthobranchs, The Opisthobranch Newsletter will attempt to 
allow space for this kind of thing as often as contributions and comments 
warrant, It is the desire of the editors that original comments here will prompt 
correspondence between the individuals interested in the specific question. 


FEROS HEH GRRE 


From Mr. Risso=Domiguez, Azcuenaga 1872, Buenos Aires, Argentinas 


"e000 the type of Anisodoris is not an "Anisodoris™, since Bergh 
selected a dorid not congeneric with the remaining species. Consequently, 


Montereina MacFar land, 1905, type species nobilis should be used for "Anisodoris"

Editors! Notes 


To avoid confusion, the editors hope that you will renew your subscriptions 
for the 1970 volume before January first so that we will know how many issues 
to print, 


trtrtrirtteiet dt tt 


The editors would like to clarify the policy toward material printed in 
the newsletter. Anything which is published is strictly nonequotable. Opinions 
expressed by subscribers in the "Reader Forum" are not to be considered as valid 
"published" opinions and should never be cited as such. A need exists for a 
Place to discuss taxonomic and other questions "off the cuff" and the newsletter 
will attempt to fill this need. Several readers expressed concern after reading 
the opinion by Mr. Risso-Dominguez in the last issue. His remarks in the 
“Reader Forum" are not to be considered as published, 


ttre retee eet t tt 


An apology is due Mr, Kerry Bruce Clark, One of your editors (SJL) 
mistook his gender when typing the membership list in the last issue. 


terttrrtrtittt tt 


The editors have learned that Dr. Nellie B. Eales will be retiring from 
the editorship of the Proceedings of the Malacological Society of London in 
1969. She is to be complimented on the quality of the journal during her 
tenure as editor. Professor Alastair Graham, of Reading University, will assume 
the editorship after Dr. Eales’ retirement. 


ttrtttig¢t#tett t # 


The editors note the death of Dr. Libbie Hyman after a distinguished 
scientific career of more than fifty years. Dr. Hyman was the foremost 
authority in America on invertebrate animals, and her death is a great loss 
to the field. 


tttrertrtterteet 
WANT LISTS 


x Information is wanted on the "Traite de Zoologie" article with Dr. Odhner's 
work in it. The work was published during 1968 and several people would appre- 
ciate information on the source and prices, 


to ettetetetest tt # 


Mr. Gary McDonald would appreciate any information or specimens of Pacific 
coast Aglajids. 


The editors need information from you on coming events, personal notes, new 
publications, and reader forum, Please try to send any notes that you have, 
Information which seems easily obtainable to you may be very difficult for others 
to obtain. We are also interested in malacological events in any part of the 
world,

Note from C.J. Risso-Dominguez, re Allyn G. Smith’s call for 
type selection: "The selection of serial sections as ‘holotypes’, 
although much used today by several authors, really is illogical. 
Since a holotype is a standard for reference, the integrity of such 
specimen (sic) appears to be a sine qua non condition. Unfortunate- 
ly, many workers establish the few anatomical remains, or even ser- 
ial sections, as types, apparently more willing to fulfill a bureau- 
cratic intended requirement than a need of zoological research. It 
is hard to imagine that a number of sections can serve for compari- 
son, the chief purpose of type selection. It is suggested that in 
such cases, individual workers when reviewing or more accurately 
describing MacFarland’s species, select neotypes in the few cases 
which really require such designation, after exhaustive research on

the specific subjects. Bulk selection of types at once, for all 
MacFarland*s species, in some undiscriminate fashion (sic) sould 
surely result in nomenclatorial problems in the distant future. Only 
specialists when working in the specific subjects should be allowed 


to select types from MacFarland‘s collection."

Mr. Wesley Farmer has brought up an interesting question re- 
garding opisthobranch literature which appears in copyrighted books

it would be infringement of copyright to reproduce sections of any

Tio notes have been received by the editors regarding iir, Risso-Dominguez's 
note in the previous number (Vol. I, No. 6): 


From Bveline Marcus: "Very often there is only a single specimen of a new 
species, If this is to be described completely, it has to be dissected or section- 
ed, So there is only a series of sections as holotype, or a slide with radula or 
other dissected parts. MacFarland decided to'dissect his specimens and to describe 
them, and your present collections on the Californian coast prove that he was right. 
You find all his species and recognize them, even without comparing them with the 
holotype. On the other hand a crumpled and faded holotype is of no use, if it is 
not permitted to be destroyed. See Odhner 1957, Chromodoris contra Glossodoris, 
Proc, Malacol., Soc, 32: 253, Postscript. Our copy bears the handwritten appendix: 
“Unfortunately, my dissection was in vain, and no radula was found, but indications 
of its having been removed at some earlier occasion", = So the Type Specimen was of 
no use. Nudibranchs are different from shelled molluses, but comparable with 
polyclad flatworms, of which the holotype is often a series of sections, or a mount 
of the anterior part and a series of the posterior part, see libbie Hyman, 1953: 
The polyclad flatworms of the Pacific Coast of North America, Bull. A.M.N.H. v. 100, 
art. 2, p. 279, 283, 289, 294, 297, 301, 308, 339, 341, 342, 351, - Also udmunds 
recommends series as holotypes, see Proc, Mal. Soc. 19659, p. 371." 


Fron Gordon Rebilliard: "I would suggest that designating serial sections as 
holotypes is, in same cases, more lopical and functional than designating whole 
animals, This may be especially true for small animals such as many of the eolids 
and sacoglossans which, after years of preservation, become pale blobs, It is very 
difficult to make useful comparisons of external or even internal structures of these 
animals to those that an investigator might have at hand. However, it can be very 
useful if an investigator can compare the genital system, buccal apparatus, and other 
external organs of his animals with the tholotype* through the medium of serial 
sections. If more systematists took the time and trouble to prepare serial sections 
of their type material (especially soft snall animals that lose their shape in 
preservative), and others took the time and trouble to compare their material to the 
serially sectioned holotype; then, the nomenclatural problems that Risso-Dominguez 
fears might be alleviated, 


I am not suggesting that all small animals should be serially-sectioned. 
Ideally, when describing a new species or redesignating species, the systematist 
should be working with enough specimens that some could be preserved whole, while 
others could be sectioned."

Reader Forum (continued from Page 1.) 


A note from ir, James _R, lance regarding copyright problems: "In the Dec, 1 
Reader Forum Mr. Wesley Farmer raised the question of reproducing in print, quo- 
tations from original species descriptions which had appeared in copyrighted 
publications. The editors opined that to do so ".., would be infringement of 
copyright..." As a matter of practical application and common useage, however, 
such is not the case, 


A lucid intepretation of the complicated international copyright laws, part- 
icularly as they apply to scientific publications, is offered by Hogan (1965). In 
this work he explains the Doctrine of Fair Use as practiced by the signatories of 
the International Copyright Act. “While it is true that most books rather ominous- 
ly warn that no part of the publication may be reproduced without the written 
consent of the publisher, the above mentioned doctrine is universally applied to 
except short quotations for review or comparison. For those readers who wish to 
pursue further this question, the best and most recent work is: Hogan, John C, 
1965. Authors guide to scholarly publishing and the law. nglewood Cliffs, New 
Jersey: Prentice-Hall, 167 pp." 


A note from Mr. Allyn G Smith, California Academy of Sciences: "irs, 
MacFarland's ‘original paintings and drawings reproduced on the California Academy's 
Memoir No, VI, have been returned to the Academy from the Stanford Library 
Archives, The people at Stanford said they thought these would be better cared 
for and more accessible at the Academy so they have been accessioned into our 
Picture Collection, which is an important and growing Academy department." 


From Dr, Anne inne _iurst, regarding Ustandardization! suggestions: "Could we have 
a list of world museums tmhich at present have the major collections of opistho- 
branchs? Specimens of new species could then be deposited in the most useful and 
appropriate places, ie could also perhaps fill some of the gaps in the present 
collections of such museums, if informed as to what is needed, 


I would suggest that for each new species, the holotype should go to the 
‘Opisthobranch-~useum’ nearest to its area of collection and syntypes to the other 
'O.M.s', preferably of other continents, as far as material is available, Also - 
where possible- please deposit copies of colour slides of the new animal along 
with the preserved specimon. 


This would make life a lot easier for our widely distributed opisthobranch- 
ologists, not to mention museums," x 


lir, Steven J. Long would like to receive collection data and any life history 
notes on Anisodoris nobilis (iiacFarland, 1905).

Since the inception of the Cpisthobranch  -ewsletter many suszes- 
cions have been made to the editors of ways to use the nevslette 

. for saall publications of interest only to the ovis thobcancolozists. 
Several of these suzcestions “ave anneared ia the "lea adez Forun" 

section, including museun lists, tyne snecinen L » seeéll club 
lists, and lists of onisthobranch workers and ae interests. 


All of tne ideas listed above ave merit and we would be nappy 
to vork on any or all of them. The major drawback to the lists is 
trae amount of space they would tate un in an alreadyv-ecrowded nevse 
letrere Cur readers snould be arare of the nostal weiz4t Limitations 
wrien orevent us from incereasinz our size without doubling the cost 
of su»scriptions, owen a single added page vould cause our foreizen 
tiailings to go overyveizht, h 

At our ‘standard tywoesneet rate most of the lists would take up 
an entire issus and possibly more tran one. this would certainly 
be the case with a list of the Onisthotranch type sxecies and their 
localities 


As a possible solution to the nrotlen we could »sublisn infor-

This year, for the first tine, the conference will be held at Stan- 
ford University in Galifornia,. The editors urge all who are able, 
to attend this meeting and.if at all sossible, to present a paper 
on opistho>ranchs. Last year a symoosium o7 opnistho>ranchs was 
planned but failed to materic e for Lact of sapers ‘and a chairman. 
The editors have already contacted the oresident, Dr. A. ira Keen 
with the hope that another try will be made this year. ven with-

COMING EVENTS 


The Third Annual Meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists is to be 
held at Stanford University under the sponsorship of the Department of Geology at 
Stanford, June 24 through June 27, 1970. One session of the meeting has been set 
aside for an Opisthobranch Symposium, to be co-chaired by Dr, David R, Franz (Univ. 
of Connecticut) and Richard A, Roller, We invite anyone interested in the field 
to present a paper at this session, so that we may have a successful symposium 
this year, If you cannot present a paper, plan to attend anyway, We hope to 
have an informal discussion time and perhaps a film and slide show, Please con-

From Thomas E, Thompson: "I wonder if you know that workers on opisthobranchs 
at the Ghardaga Marine Laboratories on the Red Sea are carrying on with their re- 
search work despite frightful dangers, Dr. Gamil Soliman has written to me of the 
‘eritical conditions prevailing in the Suez Bay zone! and ‘flying dangers.’ ... 

I am sure it would help Dr, Soliman greatly if he could read in the Newsletter that 
everyone hopes for a speedy return to normality in the Middle East so that he and 
his colleagues can resume their excellent work," ‘Je cornecur completely with Dr.

the on-campus residence halls. The unit will also provide a lounge 
for our use. lfeals will be available in nearby cafeteria and the 
meetings will be held in the new Undergraduate Library. 


In addition to the symposium on opisthobranchs, a symposium has 
been titled: "Advances in ilolluscan Systematics: A Survey of New 
Theory and Fractice." Dr. George Davis will be the guest speaker at 
the banquete He will speak on 'Malacology in Japan.”

of all the papers presented at the last meeting including two papers 


om opisthobranchs,. 


READER FORUM 


From Anne Hurst: "if we do nave a list of shell clubs and in- 
terested people per area, it might be nice to include a wider distri- 
bution than he(fid. note: Robilliard 2(2) ) suggested. It seems to me 
that a list of opisthobranch people set out in countries or areas would 
be better, and with brief interests appended to each name, would be 
marvelous. Having left a few South American 2otel rooms either dump- 
ing or carrying things like bags of sand, coke bottles full of forma- 
lin, enigmatic parcels of animals bodged up with shoe boxes and pe- 
culiar brown paper, I am quite sure that had I known the whereabouts 
of fellow opisthobranch idiots, or shell collectors, I could have 


managed things in a slightly less conspicuous style." 
"About these colour charts: I still think Gibbon's stamp charts 
are a good contender, being available iaternationally, and have been

used by Kay ¢ Young, but must adnit ve not seen the one hisso-

diets and colours may be available to the describer, I don't think 
that colour is a thing that can be described with great exactitude, 
either with or without the standard colour charts: i.e. you can de- 
seribe the ones at hand, but someone else's specimens are highly 
7 to be way off this colouration. I support the idea of at 


likel 
least some standardization of descriptions, but must add that abso- 
lute standardization often leads to tacit ommission," 

Fron Kikutaro Saba: "Unward of 300 species of named Cpistho- 
branchia occur in Japan, exclusive of the Cephalaspidea. Cne of 
my chief concerns in the last year (19 69) was to prepare a compre- 
hensive list of the named species of Japanese Cpisthobranchia for

27th, 1970. The morning session for the 25th has beon scheduled as a symposium 
entitled "Current Studies on American Opisthobranchs," The following papers are 
scheduled for presentation: 


Hans Bertsch = The Opisthobranch Fauna of Las Cruces, Baja California 


Jim Carlton - Introduced Opisthobranch Species of the West Coast of North 
America 


Dave Franz -  Zoogeography of Northwest Atlantic Opisthobranch Mollusks 


Terry Gosliner - The Opisthobranch Fauna of Guaymas, Mexico 
and Gary Williams 


Larry Harris - The Ecology of Coral-associated Nudibranchs of the Aeolid 
Genus Phestilla Bergh, 1874 


Hopefully other papers may be forthcoming. It is expected that the formal 
presentation will be followed by an informal session to include discussions, films, 
slide shows, etc, Hope to see you all there iiiii

Fron Eveline Mareus, in regard to color standardization: "Color standards 


may be very nice, But wo can't classify by 'No. 27 in table X.' Our animals are 
so varied in color, e.g. O'donoghue 1922, Trans, Canad. Inst, 14, 123 ff, plate 2, 
Lamellidoris bilamellata. Or Spurilla neapolitana, young ones are white with green 
liver branches everywhere, older ones orange or red, recently I took an oldster 
dark purple. Or Dendrodoris krebsii: we had young quite black ones, almost color- 
less ones, old red ones, some were spotted red and black, or black and grey. ‘he 
color variation refers more to the pattern than to the colors in Chromodoris neona, 
nearly every specimen has a new pattern with more red or more blue (see color plate, 
figs. 4 and 9, 1967; and 1955, fig. 98; figs. 57-58A, p. 52, in 1967 too). Many 
Ascoglossa change their color when they have digested (e.g. Tridachia) and no new 
green food in their digestive ramifications, Aplysias are nearly all the colors 

of the world in one and the same species," SS

EDITORS* NOTE 


The supplement to volume number two of the OPISTHOBRANCH Ne Se] 
LETTER is finally complete after quite a bit of typing and printing. 
It turned out to have forty-seven pages, most of which are biblio- 
graphic references to the more modern authors. ilost of the pages 
came directly from one or the other of the editor's notes and were 
photo-offset printed with varying results, A few pages of mimeo 
were added to cover more authors. About one hundred and fifty cur- 
rent addresses are included for opisthobranch-oriented people through- 
out the world, : ; 


It is hoved that the supplement will be a useful "quick-reference" 
to some of the current information and act along with the regular 
issues of the newsletter to supply needed information. It is not 
meant to replaced any published works. The format is Be" XL" so 
that the pages can be punched and put in notebooks. PXICH:5L.00 
plus 3.25 postage. Send orders to either editor.

The following note on the Cal Academy collection is from it, 
Allya G. Smith, Associate Curator, Jept. of Invertebrate Zoology. 


THE CALIFORNIA ACADHIIY OF SCIENCZS OFISTHOBSANCH COLLECTION 


An inventory of the, Academy's research collection of preserved 
invertebrates taken by the Department of Invertebrate Zoology in 
July, 1968, showed a total of nearly 1200 specimen-lots of onistho- 
branchs, divided amoung the four major Orders, as follows: 


Order Mo. Families “epresented “oe. Of Specimen Lots 
Sacoglossa 4 44 
Anaspidea : i 101 
Notaspidea 2. 114 
Nudibranchia 26 902 
Total 33 1183 


The major element of this collection is the Frank !lace !lacFar- 
land Memorial Collection of Cpisthobranchns donated to the Academy 
by Dr. iiacFarland's widow after her death. HUaving been re-curated 
recently, this collection is in relatively good condition, Identi- 
fications have been carried down to genus and species, where possible, 
although there are many specimen-lots still unidentified. Arrange- 
ment on collection-room shelves is systematic, so that any particu- 
lar group can be located.without delay. Type specimens are kept 
separate from the main collection. 


This large collection of opisthodranchs is available for study 
py any student of the Cpisthobranchia who wishes to do research work 
on it, or use it in personal research, preferably with some prior 
notice to a nember of the Department of Invertebrate Zoology. 


There is much work that can be done on the collection to make 
it more valuable in research, Thus, experts or students are urged 
to volunteer their services along any or all of the following liness 


1. Identification of unidentified specimen-lots to genus and 
species so that standard labels can be completed and the 
specimens properly shelved, 


2. “limination of specimen-lots that lack research value for a 
variety of reasons, to helpe conserve space. 


3, Additions to the collection of rare or unusual specimens 
representing new species discovered, extensions of geograph- 
ical range for named sepcies, unusual color phases, special 
habitats, etc. 


4, Opisthobranch specialists are urged to deposit both primary 
and secondarl type specimens in the Department of Inverte- 
brate Zoology Type ‘Series where these, also, will be avail- 
able for study. Several have and are continuing to do this, 
for which much appreciation is expressed. 


5. Contribute to the Denartment*s library of opisthobranch 
literature, which is woefully incomplete, 


so

COMING EVENTS 


WeS.Me... Stanford University, California: The formal session 
for Cpisthobranchs will be from 9:00 to 12:00 A.M. on the 25th. of 
June, followed by an informal separate session that will include 
short papers, films, slide shows, and diecussions, 

Two papers will be given which were not listed in the last 
issue of the newsletter:

occurrence of 
1862) is in 


The most frequent 
Navanax tnermts (Cooper, 


bays and estuaries. It has also been 
found “along the open coast in rocky 
intertidal regions and certain sub- 


tidal areas to a depth of 33m" (Lance, 
1966:71). Often the positioning of 
the boulders in an exposed intertidal 
region protects the area from harsh 
surf action (Paine, [963: |). 

On March 21, 1969, the junior au- 
thor found one specimen of Navanax tn- 
ermts in a variant habitat. It was in 
the intake tunnel of the San» Diego Gas 
and Electric Company's Encinitas Power 
Plant near Carlsbad, California (33° 
OY NN CIPI Uc ie. TwnnelweiS” se 
concrete structure 7-8 feet high and 
10 feet wide which draws sea water 
from a lagoon at a depth of about 20 
feet. Periodically the tunnel is emp- 
tied to permit manual cleaning of the 
filter system. At the time of collec- 
tion there was about one foot of water 
running in the tunnel. The bottom sur- 
face was encrusted with growing muss- 
els (Myttlus sp.), and the Navanax was 
found crawling on this substrate.Quite 
abundant inside the tunnel was Spur- 
tlla ehromosoma Cockerell and Eliot, 
1905, which Paine (1963:4) lists as an 
occasional choice of W. tnermts in its 
field diet. We think W. tnermis pro- 
bably came into this variant, man-made 
habitat from the lagoon (where one 
could reasonably expect to find Navan- 
ax), either on one of its random for- 
ays for food, or was possibly swept in 
by the intake current.

A NOTE ON THE OPISTHOBRANCH MOLLUSKS 
of 
SANTA CATALINA ISLAND, CALIFORNIA 


by Steve Long 


On September 10, 1969, Mr. Howard 
Z Katzman, of Los Angeles, California 
made a collecting trip to Catalina Is- 
land, California, and obtained the 
following specimens which were sent to 
the writer for identification: 


Chromodoris macfarlandi 
1902). Six specimens. 


Hypselodorts caltforntensis 
1879). Six specimens. 


(Cockerell, 
(Bergh, 


Latla coekerellt MacFarland, 1905. One 
specimen. 


Rostanga pulchra MacFarland, 1905. Two 
specimens. 


Tylodina fungina Gabb, 1865. Two spec- 
imens. 


The animals were collected in 
thirty to sixty feet of water while 
diving with SCUBA apparatus. The tur- 
bidity of the water was negligible 
with about forty foot visibility, ac- 
cording to Mr. Katzman. The bottom 
was covered with boulders with very 
little sand in the immediate area. 


(Collecting notes of this kind are 
encouraged since very little is known 
about the opisthobranch mollusks of 
Catalina Island. -Ed.)

READER FORUM 


Fron Jim Carlton, in regard to color standardization: "To date, Farmer (ON 
1(2):6) has suggested the Grumbacher Color Charts, Risso-Dominguez (2(2):5) has 
suggested the Seguy color code, and Hurst (2(4):13-14) has suggested Gibbon's 
stamp charts, lLaneo (1(4):12) has given a general discussion, There are several 
other works that might be mentioned also, Barnawell (Veliger, 3(2): 37-40) has 
used the Munsell Color Company, Inc., Book of Color (seo bibliography). (for 
chitons), What appears to be an old standard is the Robert Ridgway, 1912, Color 
standards and color nomenclature (Washington, D.C., publ. by the author, 53 color 
plates, iv + 43 pp. (1115 named colors)) (ornithological), but I am not familiar 
with its "historical" use, The Methuen handbook of color (/\merican edition, 1961, 
prob, under titlo of Reinhold Color Atlas) by Andreas Kornerup and J, H. Wanscher 
(1963, London: Methuen, 224 pp., color pls.) may be available in more libraries, 
(The Seguy reference I have is: Ixviii pp., with an atlas of 55 color plates (720 
colors)), The most"practical" color standard will likely also have to be the one 
most universally and most easily available,"

Also from Jim Carlton, in regard to a publication for bibliographical 
citation: "Regarding the Western Society of Malacologists' Second Annual Report 


and Proceedings ("The Echo"); I have discussed its status with Barry Roth, the 
Treasurer of the WSM, who had previously brought the matter up with other WSM 
officials, including Drs, Keon and Emerson. ‘Tho Second Amual Report constitutes 
valid publication and the articles therein may be cited as published papers ( the 
articles = the abstracts), The First Annual Report doss not fall under this cate- 
gory because its distribution was limited to members only and was not for sale, 
Beginning with the 2nd roport and proceedings, however, the publication is for 
sale, and thus constitutes publication, Barry Roth says he will bring the matter 
up of informing libraries that it is available for purchase at the next WSM

EDITORS® NOTE 


The time necessary to compile the newsletter each month is 
severely curtailing my time for correspondence and research. lI 
hope that everyone concerned will be understanding of the fact 
when I am slow to reply or send thanks for reprints, etc. Please 
continue to send your comments. Reprints of new papers are always 
appreciated and are very useful. 


We owe thanks to many people for their time and help with the 
newsletter. Without your items and comments, the newsletter could 
not continue to function. 


WANT LIST 


Dr. Ethel Tobach (American Museum of Natural History, Central 
Park West at 79th. St., New York, N.Y. 10024) writes: 

"I would appreciate any information about seasonal variation 
in population densities and sizes of Aplysia dactylomela, if the 
reader has had an opportunity to gather such data for a reasonable 
period of time for the same geographical areas. Thank you."

Mr. C.J. Risso=-Dominguez (Casilla Correo 1078 (C.C.), Buenos 
Aires, Argentina) is very interested in staining techniques for 
opisthobranchs and would like to work with animals from various 
parts of the world. Anyone interested in supplying him with specimens 
should contact Mr. Risso-Dominguez. 


READER FORUM 


Mr. Jack Brookshire has suggested that enough interest in the 
subject of color standardization exists that workers in the field 
might benefit by an attempt to use the newsletter to take a poll 
of methods currently in use. As an example, a sheet could be sent 
out to everyone listing several of the more common methods. Each 
subscriber could check the method which he or she uses and return 
the form to the editors. (continued next page) 


OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER I1(9 September 1, 1970 Page 36 
Reader Forum (Continued from page 35) 


Comments sent to the editors would be compiled and evaluated 
statistically with the results printed in the newsletter. If it 
turns out that one method is much more prevalently used, the editors 
would attempt to make that method available to all workers through 
the media of the newsletter. 

Please send any comments on the subject to the editors.

Bergh, 1874.

(Abstract) 


The ecology of coral-associated Nudibranchs of the Aeolid 
Genus Phestilla Bergh, Phestilla melanobrachia Bergh, 1874 
and Phestilla sibogae Bergh 1905 are obligate predators on 
corals of the families Dendrophylliidae and Poritidae respec- 
tively. The ecology of the associations in Hawaii and 
Singapore were described and compared. Coral colonies that 
have accumulated in the rubble below actively growing con- 
centrations of corals appear to be a particularly favorable 
resource for nudibranch utilization. Collecting data and 
observations on behavior, pigmentation and defensive 
mechanisms indicate a major external influence on the evo- 
lution of the two Phestilla species has been predation 
pressure from diurnally active predators that hunt by 
sight (fishes).

A Review of the Introduced Opisthobranchs of the Eastern Pacific 


James T. Carlton 
Department of Invertebrate Zoology 
California Academy of Sciences 
San Francisco, California 94118 


(Abstract) 


A revision of Dr. G Dallas Hanna’s “Introduced Mollusks of 


Western North America" will include the known exotic 
opisthobranchs of the Eastern Pacific. Methods of 
introduction (via commercial oyster industry, shipping 
(as fouling organisms), and other mechanisms), methods 


of recognition of introduced species, and the literature were 


reviewed. Ecological considerations were noted, 

Four species of nudibranchs introduced from the Western 
Pacific (a goniodorid, an aeolid, a eubranchid, and 

a cuthonid) and at least one species (also a cuthonid) 
from the Atlantic are recognized as exotic species, 

The likelihood of introduced Odostomia being present 
but overlooked was discussed. (Slides by R. Roller, 

A. G. Smith, J. R. Lance, and D. A. Cobb were shown)

lighter paper to allow the use of three sheets rather than the usual

From James Lance: “During May, 1970, I joined a group of 
scientists from Scripps Institution of Oceanography and UCLA who 
were searching for sacoglossans in the southern Gulf of California. 
The goal was to obtain sufficient numbers of fresh animals in order 
to determine the function, if any of symbiotic chloroplasts found 
in the animal tissues. These chloroplasts are derived from food 
plants - Caulerpa and other green algae." (continued next page) 


Reader Forum (continued ) 
(From James Lance) 


“Headquartered aboard the R.V. "Dolphin", we cruised to sev- 
eral of the larger islands exploring numerous mangrove-lined la- 
goons from whale boats. Large numbers of Oxynoe panamensis and a 
few Berthelinia belvederica and Tridachiella diomedia were found. 
The last species, however, was ubiquitous on a small, shallow 
(5-12 ft. deep at low water) sea mount about a mile offshore and 
immediately north of La Paz. Several other opisthobranchs were 
found." 


Editor’s Note 


We feel certain that one of the most-immediately useful 
sections of the newsletter is the CURRENT PUBLICATIONS section. 

We attempt to include every paper published in the world which 
even mentions opisthobranchs, tectibranchs, pteropods, or lamellar- 
ians. With this in mind, we sincerely hope that you will bring 

to our attention any papers which we miss, quote incorrectly, or 
otherwise foul up. 

We feel that this function of the newsletter is very impor- 
tant, perhaps its only important function. Even in the event that 
a worker is able to publish a tremendously complete and correct 
bibliography, that same bibliography will be long out-of-date 
long before it is available for use. With somewhere between one 
hundred and three hundred new references coming out each year 
it would be impossible to print and bind a book without being 
behind. 

We hope that you will look carefully at the references shown 
from 1967 to date and bring to our attention all those which we 
have missed. Only in that way will we be able to fill up the news- 
letter with important material and get rid of the editorial comments.

ACID SECRETION IN 


OPISTHMOBRANCHS— A 


BIBLIOGRAPHY 


by Stephen J. Long 


Acid secretion,as a protective de- 
Vice, 1s a subject of great interest 
to malacologists. The opisthobranchs 
offer many opportunities to study this 
phenomenon as they lack the calcareous 
shells present in most mollusks. As 
an attempt to draw attention to the 
work which has already been done, a 
number of the pertinent references are 
compiled below in a small bibliography,

READER _FORUM 


From Dr. James Nybakken: "The Moss Landing Marine Laborator- 
ies now has an active group of graduate students, under the guidance 
of Dr. James Nybakken, interested in studying the ecology of Calif- 
ornia opisthobranchs. At present, Mrs. Genny Anderson is working 
on the ecology of Gorambe and Corambella, particularly with respect 
to competition; Mr. Rich Ajeska is studying the ecology of Melibe 
leonina in the kelp beds; and James Nybakken is particularly inter- 
ested in the species diversity of intertidal dorid nudibranchs and 
in the niche breadth of certain dorids. Mr. Gary McDonald has re- 
cently joined the group and is presently working on opisthobranch 
radulas.” 


The address of the Moss Landing Marine Laboratories is P.O. 
Box 223, Moss Landing, California 95039, 

* * * * * * * * + * 

From James Caritons “On page 528 of Dr. Libbie Hyman's treat- 
ment of the Opisthobranchia (The Invertebrates, vol. 6, Mollusca 
1) there is the statement, ‘The cnidosacs that form the tips of 
the cerata in some sacoglossans and in most eolidacean nudibranchs 
eee’ L was under the impression that sacoglossans, by definition, 
never possessed cnidosacs, (and see Hyman, p. 508: ‘(without cnido- 
aCe MOE Could someone clarify this?" 


PERSONAL NOTE 


Mr. Gary McDonald has moved to Moss Landing Marine Laborator- 
ies to do graduate work under the direction of Dr. James Nybakken. 
Gary recently completed his Bachelor of Science degree at Califor- 
nia State Polytechnic College, San Luis Obispo, California.

The thirty-sixth annual meeting of the American Malacological 
Union (AMU) was held in late July (16-20), 1970, at Key West, Flor- 
ida, about one month after the Western Society of Malacologists® 
meeting in late June at Stanford University. Gale Sphon, of the Los 
Angeles County Museum of Natural History, presented a 45 minute 
color movie on "Nudibranchs and their allies,” while other papers 
presented included: 

Larry G. Harris, “Comparative biology of two corals nudi- 
branchs of the genus Phestilla Bergh, 1874," (see ON, vol. 2(9):36) 

David R. Franz, "Possible variability in larval development 
between populations of the cephalaspid opisthobranch Acteocina _ 
canaliculata (Say)" 

Both of the above biologists also presented papers at the WSM 
meeting. -- Information from September, 19/70, Sterkiana.

READER FORUM your renewal: 


The editors have received several notes in response to Mr. James 
Carlton's query in the last O.N. (Volume II(11)). 


From Dr. T.E. Thompson: "Only eolidacean and dendronotacean nudibranchs 
possess cnidosacs, not Sacoglossa. Even amoung Dendronotacea they 
are present only in Hancockiidae (and perhaps Lomanotidae). 


From Dr. Richard Greene: "Hyman further goes on to contradict herself 
on page 529, bottom line......'’The Sacoglossa feed exclusively on 
algae’ (I know of none that don't), It would be impossible for them 
to have nematocysts in their cerata even if cnidosacs were present, 
Since the nematocysts in all other species of nudibranchs are deriv- 
ed from some coelenterate=type food. Thus the statement on page 528 
of Hyman must be stricken from the record." 


From Mrs. Eveline Marcus: "The statement of Libbie Hyman on p. 528 
might be due to the homonymy of the Ascoglossan Calliopaea fuscata 
Gould, 1870 — now Stitliger fuscatus, and the Eolid Embletonta fus- 
eata Gould, 1870, Meyer and MSbius, 1865, did not separate Stiliger 
and Embletonta, their £. mariae is a Stiltger, their Embletonia pal- 
ttda is an Embletonia (now Tenellia p.). (Embletonta and Tenellia are 
distinguished by incomplete cnidosacs in the former). Bergh, (1886: 
11, 33, 37) muddled Embletonita fuscata and Calltopaea f., and so did 
Chambers (1934). So it is quite possible that during the enormous 
task of reviewing all the facts about opisthobranchs this slip hap- 
pened to Libbie Hyman also."

Personal Notes (Continued from page 47) 


From Mr. Ted Phillips, 4580 Nueces Drive, Santa Barbara, Ca 93105. 
"I am interested in securing shelled opisthobranchs in the area of 
the Eastern Pacific especially deep water forma/subtidal. Also the 
same from subtidal/deep water off San Luis Obispo, Ventura, and Santa 
Barbara Counties. Would also like shells of the Pyramidellidae, Ell- 
obiidae and Dolabella. Anyone interested write me at the above address." 


The editor recently had the pleasure of giving a slide-lecture 
on "Non-Shelled Mollusks” before the Santa Barbara Malacological Soc- 
iety.

READER FORUM Material Printed tn thts section ts not "published"

In the July, 1970 issue of Btologtcal Conservation (Volume 
2, number 4) Dr. Arthur H. Clarke (Head, Invert. Zoology Section, 
National Museum of Natural Sciences, Ottawa, Canada) has presented 
a short note (p. 284) on "Endangered North American Molluse¢s," not- 
ing that the papers presented on rare and endangered species at the 
34th. Annual AMU meeting (1968) will be published in a 1970 issue 
of Malacologta [ed. Vol. 10(1), May, 1970]. Dr. Clarke refers to 
a "crisis situation" stating that "More than 400 species and sub- 
species of North American molluscs are in imminent danger of extinc- 
tion." (of these, 185 are freshwater, 45 are terrestrial and 100 
are brackish). Dr. Clarke's note brings to mind Joan Steinberg's 
remarks (Veliger, 6(2):65, 1963) on Tenellia pallida and Doto amyra, 
the former having been the possible subject of sewage pollution in 
San Francisco Bay (though it is still found in the bay) and both 
being the subject of harbor renovations (specifically dock removal) 
in Monterey Bay. It seems probable that a large number of bay and 
estuarine opisthobranchs have come under man's influence, but records 
appear to be few and scattered. (elonGarltoni ) oa 

[From Dr. Robert Beeman] I will soon be opening a new course eS 
on Advanced Morphology and Ultrastructure of Marine Invertebrates 
in the Marine Biology Department at San Francisco State College. 
The class will stress group and individual work on a single group 
or animal each year. The first year or so will probably stress 
opisthobranchs. Although this class will be limited to graduate 
students at SFSC I realize that many opisthobranch workers who do 
not have access to histological and scanning and transmission elec- 
tron microscopy equipment may have fine suggestions for study that 
they may be willing to share with us. Such ideas would be very wel- 
come. We would also welcome applications from well qualified grad- 
uate students in biology to join in the opisthobranch research being 
done here by myself and several graduate students. We are working 
on functional morphology and ultrastructure under my direction; on 
ecological problems in cooperation with our Bepartment of Ecology 
and Systematic Biology; on cell and biochemical problems in cooper- 
ation with our Department of Cell and Molecular Biology; on physio- 
logical and behavioral problems in cooperation with our Department 
of Physiological and Behaviorial Biology; and on systematic problems 
in cooperation with our E and S Department, the Frank Mace MacFarland

PERSONAL NOTES 


Mr. Hans Bertsch, a California teacher and opisthobranch worker, 
was recently the subject of an article in the San Francisco newspaper, 
The Monitor (November 26, 1970). A column by Joseph Noonan, entitled 
"Hunting the Nudibranch," featured a day at the Pigeon Point tidepools 
searching for sea slugs with Mr. Bertsch. 


Dr. Antonio J. Ferreira recently returned from a collecting trip 
which included stops at Guaymas, Bahia de San Carlos, Los Algonones, 
Lalo Beach, and Puerto Lobos. He came up with fifteen species of 
opisthobranchs. All the animals came from Sonora, Mexico. 


The editors, along with Dave Mulliner and Wes Farmer, collected 
Puerto Penasco, Sonora, Mexico. The group came up with twenty species 
including two lamellarians. Most of the animals were brought back 
alive. 


Terry Gosliner, Hans Bertsch, and Gary Williams, returned froma 
Christmas vacation collecting trip to Guaymas. They found about 
thirty species of opisthobranchs. 


A six-week expedition to the Galapagos Islands is shaping up for 
February and March of this year. The participants, including Gale 
Sphon and Dave Mulliner, hope to do extensive molluscan collecting in- 
cluding a lot of diving. 


From the 1969 Annual Report of the Smithsonian Institution's Nat¢ 
ional Museum of Natural History; [feceived Cal. Acad. Sci. December, 
1970} "The collection of Mollusks has been enriched by the addition 
of 2,855 specimens of nudibranchs from the northeastern United States, 
Alaska, and Thailand, from the estate of the late George M. Moore, 
University of New Hampshire; this gift from the Moore estate also in- 
cludes a series of transparencies of living nudibranchs." [p.119] 


Mrs. Kaniaulono B. Meyer is going to Curacao for 2 months then on 
to Panama for 6 months. We hope that she has the opportunity to do 
some collecting there. Correspondence should still be directed to: 
Department of Paleobiology, Smithsonian Institute, Washington, D.C. 
20560. 


The animal on the last issue of the O.N. should have been called 
Erecolania boodleae according to Baba & Hamatani, 1970. The editor was 
remiss by about two days in reading the paper and so did not catch the 
error. 


After stops in Canada and the Libbie Hyman memorial conference, in 
Chicago, the editors had the opportunity to talk with Mrs. Eveline 
Marcus during her stay in Los Angles. She was hosted, in Los Angeles, 
by Mr. Gale Sphon.

to provide services already available for opisthobranchs - to the en- 
tire field of mollusca. It is not intended to replace the O.N.. If 
the time comes when the number of subscribers to the O.N. falls below 
a workable level, the remaining subscribers will be offered the alter- 
natives of consigning their remaining subscription fees to the M.D. or 
of receiving a subscription rebate for the months remaining. 

Subscriptions to the MOLLUSCAN DIGEST are available at the follow=

PERSONAL NOTES 


From Dr. Robert Beeman (Marine Biology Department, San Francisco 
State College): Our fine new facilities include several thousand sq. 
ft. of floor space for advanced invertebrate zoology; this includes an 
array of the latest equipment and three seawater rooms. A key part of 
the research equipment is a developing collection of opisthobranch re- 
prints. This collection will be housed in a special room, managed hy 
an assistant, and available to faculty and qualified students. WE UR= 
GENTLY SOLICIT REPRINTS- old and newl Important old references and 1 
literature collections might be purchased, please indicate price. 


Dwight Taylor and James Lance have recently returned from qa field 
expedition to the west Mexican states of Sonora, Sinaloa, Nyarit and 
Jalisco. Dr. Taylor collected approximately 30 species of fresh and 
brackish water mollusks from the fast-disappearing natural rivers, 
Streams and: lagoons, and Mr. Lance obtained 52 species of opistho=- 
branchs principally from coastal villages in Nyarit. Most of the 
specimens were returned alive and photographed.

From Hans Bertsch, O.F.M., (Our Lady of the Rosary Church, 703 C 
Street, Union City, Ca 94587): "The June 1971 meeting of the Western 
Society of Malacologists will include a presentation of material on 
the conservation of, and effects of pollution on, the marine environ- 
ment, with special emphasis on the mollusks. This will consist of a 
bibliography of recent material on the subject (to be handed out to 
the members present); papers on these topics may also be presented. 
The chairman asks that anyone knowing of pertinent literature, 
please send him the reference (or copy of the article) for use in the 
bibliography. Papers are also invited; if you wish to present one 
(either on a particular taxonomic group, faunal assemblage, or geo- 
graphical locality), please contact the chairman, Hans Bertsch." 


OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER MarcH 1, 1971 VOLUME 1113) :10, 


From Virginia Waters (P.O. Box 103, Arcata, Ca 95521): "I would 
like collecting data on Aeoltdia papillosa.. The point of particular 
interest is what anemones it was found on or near, or eating, and I'm 
also interested in observations of it eating Metridium senile and the 
associated behavior of the nudibranch and anemone. The habitat and 
- geographical locality are also necessary to accompany the above infor- 
mation.

PERSONAL NOTES 


From Dr. Henning Lemche: "Visited the Cape Farewell area of southern- 
most Greenland in the summer of 1970 on a two-month expedition. The high- 
Arctic fauna is very rich there, especially the epifauna." 


From Claus Nielsen (Acting Director, Marine Biological Laboratory, 
Strandpromenaden, DK-3000 Helsinggr, Denmark): "We are sorry to have to 
inform you that the founder and first director of our laboratory, pro- 
fessor, dr. phil. GUNNAR THORSON died on 25th. January, 1971 at the age of 
64 years." 


CURRENT EVENTS 


The 4th. Annual Meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists is 
getting closer and we are still looking for papers for the Opisthobranch 
Symposium. We have permission from Dr. Eugene Coan, W.S.M. president, to 
continue into the afternoon session is there are enough papers to warrant 
the time. A paper on photographic techniques would be especially appreci- 
ated. 


READER FORUM 


From Sandra Crane: "I would like to remark on the quote from Hyman in 
your December volume. I know one Sacoglossan which does not feed on EUGENES 
Olea haneineensis feeds on the eggs of other Opisthobranchs - it doesn't 
have cnidosacs however. I have written a paper on Olea which is now out 
for review. At present I am writing my thesis on Archidorid montereyensie.,

EDITORS’ NOTES 


The animal drawing shown on volume two, number twelve, of the OPISTHO- 
BRANCH NEWSLETTER, was an undescribed species from the Gulf of California. 
The artist for the drawing was Mr. Wes Farmer. The animal on volume three, 
number two, should have been called Anttopella barbarenesis. 


The editors must request, once again, your help with information and 
comments. These items are very important for the continued publication of 
the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER and without some reader input we could not 
continue to function. To help obtain a world-wide balance we would appreci- 
ate more infomation from our readers outside of the U.S.A. but all comments 
are welcome.

From James Carlton: "The International Commision on Zoological Nomen- 
clature has announced the repeal of Article 23(b), and ipso facto the re- 
peal of Article 23(a) (i) of the INTERNATIONAL CODE OF ZOOLOGICAL NOMENCLA- 
TURE. The repeal forms Declaration 43 of the ICZN, and was published Dec- 
ember 3, 1970, in the Bulletin of Zoological Nomenclature, vol. 27, pts. 
3/4, p. 135 (English), followed by the French text. A lenghty history of 
the case follows. It should be noted that 23(b) as repealed reads differ- 
ently than in the 1964 code, and that 23(a) is reworded as follows:

nevertheless the valid name of the taxon in question if the commis- 

sion has expressly validated it.

PERSONAL NOTES 


From Dr. J. Sherman Bleakney: "There are some very productive salt marsh 
pools locally and in the winter we can chop through several inches of ice 
and collect Alderia and Elysia, but this winter we were somewhat handicap- 
ped by ice formation that reached a depth of 23 inches. Nevertheless, be- 
neath this ice there were living mollusca and even the anemone Nematostella. 
You may find this hard to believe but less than a mile away from this site 
grew some excellent tobacco during the hot summer months." 


Dr. Antonio Ferreira (Los Gatos, California) has recently completed a 
four-day trip to San Luis Gonzaga and a nine-day trip to the Puerto Vai- 
larta-Mazatlan areas of Mexico. The trips produced some thirty opistho- 
branch species. During the first two weeks of May he will be collecting 
in the Bahama Islands. 


From Dr. Kikutar6é Baba: "I have been working to finish my years' study 
on Doto: a manuscript has nearly been completed which will be entitled: 
Anatomical studies on three species of Doto (D. bella, D. japonica and D. 
pita) from Japan (Nudibranchia: Dendronotoidea: Dotoidea)."” 


INFORMATION EXCHANGE 


Dr. Lindsay Winkler would appreciate information on the new publication, 
TETHYS. Would anyone having information on the address and price please 
send it to the editors so that it may be noted in a future issue of the 
OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER. 


From Mrs. Eveline Marcus (Caixa Postal, 6994, Sao Paulo, Brazil): "I 
am currently working on the Acteonidae and would appreciate contributions 
of preserved Acteonids, with the animal."

CURRENT PUBLICATIONS 


The first annual conference of the Israel Malacological Society was 
scheduled to be held on 11 April, 1971, at the Tel Aviv University. Among 
the papers to be presented was the following: 


BARASH, AL. & Z. DANIN. 1971. Report on Opisthobranchia (Mollusca) of the 
Mediterranean Coast and continental shelf. 


From the society's secretary, I. Yaron, we learned that the proceedings 
of the conference will be published in full as a separate issue of the 
ISRAEL JOURNAL OF ZOOLOGY (probably in July). Abstracts of the papers will 
appear in the next issue of ARGAMON. 


From Allyn G. Smith (Department of Invertebrate Zoology, California 
Academy of Sciences): "We have just acquired a copy of ‘Illustrations of 
Japanese Aquatic Plants and Animais,' vol. 2, published in 1932 by the 
Tokyo Fisheries Society of Japan, 1 Tameike, Akasaka. The format is 20 1/2 
X 14 1/2 inches; there are color plates no. 51-100, inclusive. On plate 
91 (XCI) are illustrations of 5 Japanese opisthobranchs, as follows: 


Fig. 7,8 Argus spectosa (Abraham) [Dorsal & Ventral] 
Fig. 9 Pleurophyllidia japonica Elliot [Dorsal] 
Fig. 10 Aclesta freert Griffin [Dorsal] 

Fig. 11 Dolabella sp. [Dorsal] 


The latter illustration is five inches long; the others are four inches in 
length, which gives an idea of size. 

This publication must be rare as I have not seen it prior to this time. 
It turns out to be a useful reference for quick identification of a number 
of the commoner Japanese invertebrates." 


Workers in the biology of marine pollution should note the existence of 
the MARINE POLLUTION BULLETIN, a monthly periodical. Subscription rates 
are available from: MacMillan Journals Ltd., Subscription Dept. (MP 2),

PERSONAL NOTES 


Dr. Horace Burrington Baker: died-on March 11, 1971, in Havertown, 
Pennsylvania. Dr. Baker had served as the editor of the NAUTILUS for many 
years. ; 


Mrs. Eveline Marcus has brought an error in the Odhner key published 
in the MOLLUSCAN DIGEST on page A5 (Feb.1,71) to our attention. Item "A" 
begins: "With pedal gland," just as for item "B." For "B." this is cor- 
rect, but "A." should read "Without foot gland." 


From Mr. Gale Sphon (Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History): 
"During March, 1971, the Ameripagos Expedition collected at the Galapagos 
Islands which lie on the equator about 600 miles off the coast of Ecuador. 
The Expedition members consisted of: Twila Bratcher, Jackie Gunderman, 
Caroline Polonsky, Ellen Brennan, William Old, David Mulliner, and myself. 
In a month's time we collected at 33 stations for mollusks. With the ex- 
ception of three localities (the Darwin Research Station on Academy Bay, 
Santa Cruz Island, which was our headquarters while we were in the Archi- 
peligo, and Sullivan and Bartolome Bays on Bartolome Island where we camped 
for several days) only a few hours were spent at each locality. 

In going through the literature before we left, I was able to find 
references for one Nudibranch and one other shell-less Opisthobranch. A 
concentrated effort was made by all of us to collect 'branchs and the best 
guess I can come up with at the present time is between 25-30 species. 
Many of these, of course, have already been named, but they are still very 
nice records to have. Dave and I are going to be working up all the 
material and we already have a "Preliminary Report on the known species 
.--" going. At the present time my estimate of new species is about 8-10. 
Of course this will take much literature search before we can be sure, but 
we have what I believe are a new Platydorid, a Chromodorid, a Nembrotha, 

a Cyerce or Phyllobranchillus, 2 or 3 Pleurobranchs, 2 Cerberillas and 
various and sundry other dorids. Obviously, we have our work cut out for 
us for the next few months!"

READER FORUM 
From Mrs. Eveline Marcus (Sao Paulo, Brazil): "There are many excel- 
lent photographers of our pets, and they produce beautiful slides of the 
living animals. This is a great help for the student who has to deal with 
the preserved, discolored and shrunken slugs. For this student it would 
be of great value to have the picture taken with a scale, a strip of 
millimeter paper or an engraved slide (indicate inches or mm), so the ac- 
tual length of the animal can be determined. It is so difficult to get 
good pictures that this little bit of extra care will hardly increase the 
trouble, and it is really worth while. In many cases, especially of ques- 
tioned species, the well-executed slide may make possible a more secure 


/CSlassification."

From James T. Carlton (California Academy of Sciences): "Concerning 
the remarks of Sandra Crane in the CPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER of April, 1971 
[3(4):13], it might be further noted that the feeding of the sacoglossan 
Olea hanstneensts upon the eggs of other opisthobranchs has been recorded 
at least several times in the literature. Gonor (1966, p.131) has de- 
scribed this feeding behavior in 0. hansineensts, noting that it feeds 
upon the eggs of two species of tectibranchs, ‘but will not attempt to 
feed upon the eggs of any Nudibranch that I had available to present to it 
They also will not eat either firm or soft egg masses of prosobranch 
Snails. The sacoglossan feeding mechanism has not limited this species to 
algae, but it limits it to a food which is much like the algal filament in 
structure. The egg masses of the prey species are composed of strings of 
small jelly capsules each containing an egg. Olea slits the capsule and 
sucks the egg out.’ 

Earlier, Gonor (1961, p.86) also referred to the 'more specialized* 
Olea. Hurst (1967, p.266) has also remarked, in reference to Olea, that 
its egg 'masses are found in proximity to those of Haminoea and probably 
to those of Chelidonura, on the eggs of which adult Olea feed.' 

There are likely similar references to the feeding of 0. hansineensis 
which remain to be sifted from the literature." ;

Dr. Henning Lemche has recently presented a proposal to the ICZN con- 
cerning the status of Okenia, Idaliella, Idaltla, Cargoa, and Idalia. Part 
of the proposal is included below: 


"5. Quite recently, Vogel and Schultz (1970, VELIGER 12:388) reject 
Okenta because of Art. 10d (ste. -- actually 1ld) 'a name first pub- 
lished as a synonym is not thereby made available’ -- but they stop 
short here, forgetting to continue ‘unless prior to 1961 it has been 
treated as an available name with its original date and authorship, . 
and either adopted as the name of a taxon or used as a senior synonym.' 
Evidently, therefore, Vogel and Schultz are unjustified in rejecting 
Okenta which has been in general use now for 47 years, and their now 
proposed substitute name Cargoa is only a junior objective synonym of 
Okenta Menke, 1830."

CURRENT EVENTS 


The Fourth Annual Meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists was 
a success for West Coast opisthobranch workers. On Thursday night a total 


. of twenty-six people gathered at Dr. Larry Harris' house for an excellent 


session viewing 35mm color slides taken by several of the people present. 
Animals from the South Pacific, Gulf of California, Western Atlantic, and 
North@ast Pacific were shown. Many of the animals were unknown to the en- 
tire group and many valuable comments were exchanged on the animals which 
were recognized. 

The symposium on Friday was chaired by Steven J. Long and presented 
the following eight papers:

Dr. M. Patricia Morse hosted a nudibranch symposium May 6, 1971, at 
the Marine Sciences Institute of Northeastern University, Nahant, Mass. 
Dr. Larry Harris gave a talk on his work-in-progress with Aeolidia papil- 
losa. Dr. David Franz talked about the zoogeography of northwest Atlantic 
opisthobranchs. Dr. Henry Russell spoke on the methods used in the pre- 
paration of his bibliography of nudibranch references. Dr. Morse talked 
about her observations on several species of direct-developing nudibranchs. 
The symposium was guite well attended and the session proved very infor- 
mative to all. - From K.B. Clark. 


PERSONAL NOTES 


From Dr. Antonio J. Ferreira (2060 Clarmar Way, San Jose, Ca 95128): 
"Back from the Caribbean into the Pacific cold waters.... How do we dare 
ever to dive here? Anyhow, I enjoyed the trip a great deal, collected a 
few chitons and six species of opisthobranchs: Aplysia dactylomela, Den- 
drodorts krebsit, 9 Chromodoris nyalya, 1 Phylltidtopsis papilligera, 2 
Pleurobranchus aureolatus, & 1 Cyerce antillensts. Brought them all back 
alive (except for the Aplysia) and took many slides of them (which some- 
how turned out well). 
~) From Mrs. Kaniaulono Bailey Meyer (Temporary address: Smithsonian 
Tropical Research Institute, P.O. Box 2072, Balboa, Canal Zone): "My hus- 
band, Dave, and I are at the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute's 
lab on Galeta Island on the Atlantic side of the Isthmus, near Colon. 
The lab sits right on top of a broad reef flat and is a veritable opistho- 
branch heaven! When weather and seas permit we dive and in the last two 
months have come up with 38 spp. mostly from between 10-50 feet. The 
reef here is extremely rich in sedantary and attached animals, tunicates, 
hydroids, anemones, algae, and sponges galore! It seems that I find at 
least one and often 2-3 new species on every dive! Just the other day I 
came up with a four-inch Hexabranchus morsomus Marcus. It is really a 
treat to see something that large in ‘the Atlantic. 
The 38 species collected break down as follows: 5 spp. Bullomorpha; 
6 spp. Aplysiomorpha; 6 spp. Ascoglossa; 2 spp. Pleurobranchomorpha; 12 
dorids; 2 Dendronotids; and 4 eolids. From the Pacific side where I haver 
not done much collecting due to distance and poor road conditions, I have: 
1 Bullomorpha; 2 Pleurobranchomorpha, and 4 dorids. The Pacific slugs 
are all intertidal. Since I don't have the necessary literature with me 
I have only been able to identify very few of the species and I will have 
to wait until we settle somewhere to actually begin dissections and sec- 
tioning." 


From James Lance (University 6£ California, Scripps Institution of 
Oceanography, P.O. Box 109, La Jolla, Ca 92037): "Twenty-four species of 
opisthobranchs were recently collected by James Lance and party during an 
extremely low tide series at Bahia San Luis Gonzaga, Mexico. This beauti- 
ful, natural bay, located on the eastern shore of the Baja peninusla, re- 
mains ‘undeveloped' and consequently unspoiled. The abundant intertidal 
invertebrate fauna (including opisthobranchs) shows considerable variation 
between open and highly protected rocky shores. The collection was flown 
alive to Scripps Institution of Oceanography for further observations on 
reproductive cycles." 


Hans Bertsch was ordained a priest of the Catholic Church on June 
6, 1971. The editors wish him the best of luck in the future.

From Dr. Kikutaro Baba: "During May of this year I worked with Mr. 
Robilliard of the Friday Harbor Laboratories on the American specimens of 
Aldiea which resembled Alditsa sanguinea (Cooper, 1862) very closely but 
differed from it in having a series of small black spots mid-dorsally be- 
tween rhinophores and gills (see especially Aldisa sanguinea of Cooper, 
1863). We were working to establish a new specific or subspecific taxon 
for them. Aldisa sanguinea of Baba, 1940 will be synonymized into that 
new taxon." 


PUBLICATION NOTES 


The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER, volume one and two, have been reprinted 
in living black and white. Several of the pages from volume two have been 
retyped so there should be no difficulty reading any of the print. The 
entire volume one has been printed in black and white. Both volumes are 
stapled into volumes with heavy cardstock covers. 


Single copies of OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER issues are available at 
thirty cents each. 


The INDEX NUDIBRANCHIA by Dr. Henry D. Russell is scheduled to be 
out of the printer's within three weeks. It is published by the Delaware 
Museum of Natural History, Greenville, Delaware 19807, U.S.A. and will be 
available at a cost of $9.75 (U.S. Currency). This will be a fantastic 
addition to the opisthobranch literature. 


The editors have decided to take the date for papers listed in the 
OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER back to January 1, 1966 so that there will be 
complete listings for every paper from 1554 to date available to people 
using Dr. Russell's book and the newsletter. We will also list any papers 
on opisthobranchs which were not listed in Dr. Russell's fine nudibranch 
bibliography as they are sent to us. 


The following two papers by Dr. Kikutaro Baba, are in press:

PERSONAL NOTES 


From Clayton H. Carlson (University of Guam, Box EK, Agana, Guam 
96910): "The last two weeks of June, P.J. Hoff and I were lucky enough 
to be able to sail to the northern Marianas islands of Anatahan, Sarigan, 
Guguan, Alamagan, and Pagan. We managed to find over 200 opisthobranchs, 
representing 52 species: 20 Cephalaspidea; 4 Anaspidea; 6 Sacoglossa; 10 
Dorids; 7 Phyllidia; 1 Arminoidea; 1 Dendronotoidea; and 3 Eolids. 

Later on this year, or the early part of 1972 we plan to revisit a 
couple of the islands and also try a couple of new islands further north.”

INFORMATION EXCHANGE 


"Suggestions and advice on the culturing and rearing of Aplysia calif- 
ornica from egg through larvae and metamorphosis are needed. Particularly 
with regard to isolation of veligers, best food for them, importance of 
light-dark, serious predators, substrate needed, if any, for settling for 
metamorphosis, length of veliger life, and importance of pressure. Infor- 
Mation about best culturing techniques and hardware would be very useful.

As most of our subscribers realize, it is impossible to pay the costs 
of publishing the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER with the small number of sub- 
scribers currently receiving the newsletter. We have always published 
the newsletter as a service to our readers and will continue to do so as 
long as the interest remains at the present level. 

We have raised the subscription rates for volume four slightly to 
compensate for the latest increases in U.S. and foreign mail rates, but 
we must again emphasize that these rates to not meet the expenses of the 
OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER. 

The rates for volume four will be: $2.50 in the U.S.A., Canada, and 
Mexico; $3.50 in all other countries. The air mail rate will be $4.00 
worldwide and the institutional rate will be $5.00 worldwide. 

Back volumes will be priced as follows: vol. #1I-$1.50; volume #II & 
#III-$2.50 each; supplement to volume #II-$1.25.

PERSONAL NOTES 


From Dr. Henning Lemche(Universitetets Zoologiske Museum, Universitets- 
parken 15, Kgbenhavn %, Denmark): "On my visit to the western coast of Ire- 
land I worked first from the University College in Galway, but that proved 
too distant from the collecting places to be suitable, and so I moved to a 
small and primitive, new marine station at Carna, about fifty miles farther 
West, which proved to be in the middle of an area with an extremely fascin- 
ating fauna. The temperature varies only between 8° and 14°C. all year 
round, which excludes the arctic and boreo-arctic species as well as those 
needing really warm water for some part of their life cycle (be it ripening 
of the gonad, spawning, larval development, etc.). This makes the area of 
central interest in the analysis of the ecological factors influencing the 
zoogeography of the animals along the West coast of Europe. Quite a number 
of taxonomic problems in the opisthobranchs were also solved - and some new 
ones raised. It is my hope to be able to produce - in a not too distant 
future - a paper on these animals from that interesting area - which I cer- 
tainly hope to visit again." 


From James R. Lance (Scripps Institution of Oceanography, P.O. Box 109, 
La Jolla, Ca 92037): "Recently I had a request from a Los Angeles marine 
advisory group to identify a number of what turned out to be Pleurobranch- 
aea californica's. Included was the gut contents of a particularly large 
specimen which had been dissected. The contents consisted, almost exclu- 
sively, of beautifully preserved Gastropteron pactficum. There are several 
questions here. The Pleurobranchaea's were taken off Newport Beach and 
vicinity." 


Hans Bertsch (Mary Help of Christians, P.O. Box 7004, Oakland, Ca94601) 
has two papers completed on the Guif of California fauna and two papers 
completed on the Central California fauna. All four papers should appear 
during the coming year.

From Mr. Robert Burn (3 Nantes Street, Newtown, Geelong, Victoria, 
Australia, 3220): "Firstly, editing the Journal [Malacological Society of 
Australia] has filled in a great deal of my time but happily that is now 
out of the way until next year. I have two papers in press, one a general 
paper on Sacoglossans, the other on opisthobranchs from South Australia 
including tropical forms not previously recorded. As a result of the 
Sacoglossan paper and correspondence with [Dr. Kikutar6d] Baba, I worked 
out a rationalization of the eolidiform species (Stiliger, Erecolanta, etc.) 
which I hope to publish as a synthesis of the group before too long. In 
late August, I spent a week at the Australia Museum, Sydney, .sorting and 
working up their collections of opisthobranchs. A large amount of remark- 
able material was sorted out, mainly in the preserved bubble-shells, but 
also a large new swimming Pleurobranchotdes and a new Trapania were found. 

In between times, I have been collecting and:working on the fossil 
opisthobranchs from the Tertiary of southern Australia. It is 75 years 
since the last revision, so it is about time for .a new revision. Already 
there are about a dozen new species including three Philine and one Austro- 
dtaphora."

PERSONAL NOTES 


-' From’ Kaniaulono Bailey Meyer (P.O. Box E., Coco Salo, Canal Zone): 
"The trip to San Blas [Islands] offered many marine rewards but unfor- 
tunately, few of them were opisthobranchs. Dave [Meyer] had taken a trip 
to the same areas a month before and brought back a beautiful Bornella 
ealcarata and several specimens of a large Onchidella sp. I didn't find 
any more Bornella and there were no Onenidella where they had been abun- 
dant only a month before! However, in shallow pools covered with the 
algae Chaetomorpha and Cladophora I did find large populations of both 
Styloechetlus longtecauda and Mteromelo undata. On one nite dive, which I 
regretably didn't make, Chuck Birkeland (a marine ecologist here at 
Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute) brought back 15-20 Trittonta 
bayert which he found feeding on Brtareum (a gorgonian). He later found 
2 specimens by day in another area so they are not strictly nocturnal. 
Other than those the slugging was poor."

From Dr. Richard Greene (University of Notre Dame, Department of Biol-

Dr. Leonard Muscatine at UCLA entitled 'Algal and Chloroplast Symbiosis in 
Molluscs' which will be in INTERNATIONAL REVIEWS OF CYTOLOGY. The review 
is scheduled to be completed by June, 1972, and will probably be in the 
January, 1973 volume. My part, of course, will concern the Sacoglossa and 
their associations with algal chloroplasts. 

I'm also currently doing some studies to determine whether or not 
chloroplasts in several species of Sacoglossa are capable of DNA synthesis. 
I'm also launching into a whole variety of studies which have been 
stimulated by the discovery of chloroplasts in Sacoglossans, which deal 

with aspects of the evolution of chloroplasts in plant cells."

REVIEW OF SEA SHELLS OF TROPICAL WESY AMERICA. 
MARIWE MOLLUSKS FROM BAJA CALIFORNIA TO PERU. 
BY A. MYRA KEEN, WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF JAMES 
H. McLEAN, 1971. 


JAMES T. CARLTON 


This new edition of Dr. Keen's outstanding and classic work on the 
marine mollusks from Magdalena Bay, Baja California, to Punta Aguja, Peru 
appearing only thirteen years after the first edition, is nearly twice the 
size of its predecessor: 440 pages have been added to the 624 pages of the 
first edition, while twelve more color plates have also been added. The 
introduction has been rewritten, and an "Outline of Classification" has 
been added. The bivalves are treated in 282 pages, with 548 pages being 
devoted to the gastropods. The Monoplacophora and Aplacophora are newly 
added (the latter having been only mentioned in the first edition); the 
Polyplacophora are covered in 22 pages, the Scaphopoda in nine pages, and 
the Cephalopoda in three pages. 


The appendix incorporates a new section, "Rejected and Indeterminate 
Species," a (now illustrated) glossary, and a new division, “Geographic 
Aids," which includes maps, a section on Spanish-English equivalents, an 
index of place names, and a short set of conversion tables. The "Keys to 
Major Pelecypod and Gastropod Divisions" of the first edition have been 
dropped. The Bibliography has been increased by 23 pages. 


Readers should particularly note that thirteen new species are de- 
scribed (these are listed on page 1064), while a number of species are 
cited only as in manuscript (see page viii). 


The text illustrations are, in general, excellent and the color plates 
are superb. The book is remarkably free of typographical errors. In the 
words of one reviewer of the first edition, this work is "monumental, com- 
prehensive, and exhaustive. . . a model of planning, ingenuity, and hard 
work." 


The above remarks are by way of general introduction, while the fol- 
lowing discussion is directed solely toward the Opisthobranchia; thus this 
note is not intended to be a formal review. r 

The Opisthobranchia are treated in 78 pages; 523 species are consid- 
ered, of which 353 are pyramidellids (Order Entomotaeniata). The remain- 
ing orders and numbers of species treated are: Cephalaspidea, 46; Theco- 
somata, 20; Anaspidea, 12; Notaspidea, 6; Sacoglossa, 11; and Gymnophila

(Soleolifera), 5. In addition, there are two "unnumbered" species: Spurtlla 
alba (p. 839), reported by Sphon in 1971, and Onehidoris hystricina (p. 828), 
reported apparently in error. from the Gulf of California. Workers should 
also note the consideration of Bulla nonsertpta and Archidorts britanntca 
(p. 908) and "Lamellaria digueti" (p. 904) in the section on Rejected and 
Indeterminate Species. The text is supported by nearly five color plates 

of opisthobranchs and numerous line drawings or halftone illustrations. In 
contrast, the first edition of Dr. Keen's work dealt with only 31 species 

of opisthobranchs in somewhat over ten pages of text, and no nudibranchs 
were considered. 


The recent amount of work on opisthobranch fauna of the Gulf of Cal- 
ifornia and of the Galeapagos Islands will necessitate many additions and 
range extensions. For example, while Dr. Keen notes that no species of 
Aglaja (p. 798), Petalifera and Phyllaplysta (p. 810) or Cylindrobulla 
(p. 815) have yet been recorded from the Panamic province, there are yet- 
to-be published records of all these genera now known from that region. 
(Dr. Iwao Hamatani now has in press a paper on a new species of Cyltindro- 
bulla from Isla Espiritu Santo, San Gabriel Bay (Publications of the Seto 
Marine Biological Laboratory, in press). Mrs. Eveline Marcus has also re- 
cently published (August, 1971, Proceedings of the Malacological Society 
of London, 39(5):355-369) the description of a new genus and species of 
Chromodorid, Felimida sphont, from Colima, Bahia Santiago and Nayarit, 
Santa Cruz. It is thus evident that readers will have to annotate their 
copies of Dr. Keen's monograph liberally if they intend to keep up with 
the burgeoning literature. It is remarkable that Dr. Keen was able to in- 
clude so many species described or recorded in 1970 or 1971. 


Numerous systematic and taxonomic changes have been made and will in- 
spire a number of questions among opisthobranch workers. A number of sub- 
species are elevated to specific rank, species are transferred to other 
genera, or Ssynonymized for the first time. For example, Berthellina engelt 
tllisima is raised to full species level (p. 812) and Chromodoris aegtalta 
is placed into Hypselodoris (p. 823). An unfortunate error has occurred in 
the discussion of the Marcus' Casella sedna (p. 822): sedna is indicated as 
being "here transferred" to Chromodorts, while in fact the transfer was 
actually made by Bertsch (1970b, p. 8 (in bibliography)). While Wembrotha 
hubbst is synonymized with W. eltora (p. 827), it might have been well to 
add a question mark to that synonymy, especially since it is pointed out on 
the next page that the radular teeth of the two species, as figured in the 
literature, are incompatible. Workers may also quibble over the retention 
of Navanax in favor of Cheltdonura (pp. 798, 800), and the retention of 
Capellinita, established by Edmunds and Kress (1969, Journal of the Marine 
Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 49(4):879-912) as a junior 
synonym of Eubranchus. Roller's paper on nomenclatural changes in the Mac- 
Farland memoir has also escaped inclusion in the bibliography (R. Roller, 
The Veliger, 12(3):371-374, 1 January, 1970). 


It is of interest that Bertsch's Chromodoris baumannii was passed by, 
Since his paper (1970b) is cited in the bibliography. Similarly, while 
the paper by Bertsch and Smith (1970) is listed, their range extension of 
Cheltdonura itnermis is not incorporated in the text. Robertson's work on 
Odostomita host specificity might have been mentioned in the discussion on 
page 770 (and more recently, Bullock and Boss have also dealt with this 
question (Breviora, no. 363, 7 pp., January, 1971): none of these paper, 
however, deal with tropical West American species.

REVIEW - CONTINUED 


The proof-reading has been extremely thorough; I noted only a few minor 
errors, among them the citing in the bibliography of "W.F. Farmer" and "W. 
M. Farmer" as two different authors (Wesley M. Farmer is the responsible 
party) and "compound bryozoans" as the food of Polycera atra (p. 827). For 
Phylltroe bucephala (pp. 832-833), while stating that the "name is cited in 
quotation marks here to indicate its unsatisfactory status," only the 
authors are placed within quotation marks. These are all, however, only 
Minor oversights at best. 


All workers will agree that the present compilation is a valuable syn- 
thesis, and the inclusion of these shell-less molluscs will hopefully in- 
spire those who normally restrict themselves to the sea shells to also 
watch for and observe the equally beautiful opisthobranchs.

PREPRINTED REPRINT REQUEST CARDS 


The use of preprinted reprint request cards is still in bad taste in 
most parts of the world and probably will be for some time to come. It is 
often also a waste of time. 

These cards usually carry a request for a particular paper (which is 
listed in the blank) "and related articles." The only thing personal 
about the request is the requestor’s signature. 

A large number of the cards will go straight to the waste-basket where 
a short personal letter would receive immediate attention. Reprints are 
usually very scarce and the author tries to see each one goes where it will 
find the best use.

From Dr. Kikutaro6 Baba (Shigigaoka 35, Minami-1ll-jyo, Sango-cho, Ikoma-gun, Nara- 


ken, Japan). "On November 19, 1971, I visited the Tokai University Marine Science 
Museum situated about 100 kilometers south of Tokyo and facing the Surga Bay (which 
itself is just south of Sagami Bay). There I was given a series of of live speci- 


mens of opisthobranchs (Cadlina ornatissima (Risbec) and other undetermined species). 
In 1972 I will join with the underwater collecting of opisthobranchs to be held 
by the same university."

READER FORUM 


From R. Rosin (16 W. 82 St., New York, N.Y. 10024): "I would like to disagree 
with the opinion expressed in ON (III, 12) about preprinted request cards. They are 
helpful to the receiver (!) by enabling him to classify such mail at a glance, and 
maintain a card catalogue if he so wishes. While the evaluation of the term 're-=& 
lated articles' is left to the receiver, ignoring the request for a specific artizic 
cle, without an explanatory note of regret (permissibly on an adequate preprinted 
card) is what I would consider in bad taste." 


PUBLICATION NOTES 


A color photograph of Polycera conspteua from Australia appeared in the color 
photograph supplement of the September, 1971 HAWAIIAN SHELL NEWS (vol. 19, no. 3, 
new series no. 141). 


In Dr. Russell's Index Nudibranchia the second paper of R.E.C. Stearns is lis-— 
ted with the remark that the "bibiiographic reference is unavailable." The citation 
is as follows: CALIFORNIA HORTICULTURIST AND FLORAL MAGAZINE, volume 3, pp. 208-209 
(July, 1873). There are two line drawings (both by Stearns), one of "Latertbraneh- 
aeta festiva," and the other of "frtopa [ste] carpentert." Stearns states that 
"Both L. festiva and 7. carpentert were found on the under side of large granite 
bowlders [ste] near the lighthouse at Point Pinos, Monterey." The paper is directed 
to a popular audience and contains no new information. [J.T. Carlton]

From Alan M. Kuzirian (Department of Zoology, University of New 
Hampshire, Durham, New Hampshire 03824): "I am currently beginning my 
Phe Ds under Dee bain Hacris and at thesame tame, tnyang te amish swasata— 
ing my Master's Thesis for Dr. M.P. Morse at Nahant, Massachusetts. As 
you might gather I have been rather busy. My Master's Thesis is a com- 
parative study of the reproductive systems of three species of Coryphella 
we have here off the coast and for my work with Dr. Harris, I hope to ex- 
tend my interests to the areas of reproductive and developmental physiol- 
ogy of Nudibranchs." ; 


The editor would appreciate information on the current addresses for 
Dr. E. A. Kay (University of Hawaii?) and Dr. David K. Young (Wood's Hole, 
Mass.?). 


Dr. Luise Schmekel (44 Miinster (Westf.), den Hiifferstrasse 1, Ger- 
many) will continue her research on opisthobranchs while at the University 
of Miinster. Dr Schmekel and Professor Adolf Portmann (Zoologische Anstalt 
Rheinsprung 9, CH 4000, Basel, Switzerland) are working on a Monograph of 
Nudibranchia and Ascoglossa of the Gulf of Naples which should be comple- 
ted within two year's time. 

Dr. Schmekei is also working on the histology of aduit and deveiop- 
ing Nudibranchs (and other molluscs). She studies the epiaermis, nervous 
system, hepatopancreas, genital organs, and "cellules spéciales," along 
with other aspects of the animals. 


From Dr. Antonio J. Ferreira (2060 Clarmar Way, San Jose, California 
95128): "Before my trip to Puerto Penasco, I went to the area of Tehuante- 
pec and Chiapas. I collected in the Mar Muerto, and at Puerto Arista, as 
well as Puerto Angel. Rather small places,..., very interesting." 


Dr. Leo G. Hertlein, Curator Emeritus of Geology, California Academy 
of Sciences, died early Saturday morning, January 15, 1972. Dr. Hertlein 
had been with the Academy from 1925 until his retirement in 1970. He 
had contributed over 150 scientific papers to the literature. 


Stephen Newswanger and Vernon L. Human (Santa Barbara, California) 
are working on a survey of intertidal and subtidal (to 100 feet) Mollusca 
from Gaviota to Point Sal. Their goal is to establish the line between 
the Oregonian Province and the Californian Province.

PERSONAL NOTES - CONTINUED FROM PAGE D. 


Dr. M. Patricia Morse will be in England for the next few months. 
She will spend time at Leeds University working with Dr. Joseph Jennings 
and then with Professor Alastair Graham at Reading University. About 
the beginning of April Dr. Morse will collect with Dr. Henning Lemche at 
Kristianaberg, Sweden. 


Dr. Gordon Robilliard was mentioned in an article entitled "Pollu- 
tion even at the South Pole," in the December 31, 1971, issue of Mel- 
bourne "Age," from Australia. The article was written by Alton Brakslee 
and covered work at the McMurdo Station, Antarctica. 


From Sheldon Zack (University of Oregon, Eugene, Oregon 97403): "I 
am currently a graduate student at the University of Oregon (will finish 
up this summer) investigating the behavior of Hermtssenda crasstcornis. 
I am particularly interested in the ‘aggressive' behavior of this beast 
and am trying to get a complete description of the sequence of behaviors 
involved. I am also investigating the functional and causal aspects of 
this behavior pattern. Eventually, I hope to record from single neurons 
in the nervous system and correlate neural activity and behavior. Any 
comments or suggestions would be appreciated.” 


From Robert Burn (3 Nantes St., Newtown, Geelong, Victoria 3220, 
Australia): "From the same latitude but on opposite coasts of the Austra- 
lian continent, the writer received two new species of Okenta, both 
within a period of four days. From south Western Australia; the species 
looks more like an eolid with large balloon-like cerata, while that from 
north-central New South Wales has long finger-like processes on the 
orange body. Earlier in 1971, assidious scrutiny of the crop on a boat 
hull in the yacht basin at East Fremantle, south Western Australia led 
to the discovery of seven species of opisthobranchs of the genera Cratena, 
Favorinus, Janolus, Okenta, and Polycera. Four of the species are prob- 
ably undescribed." 


CURRENT EVENTS 


From Mr. Wesley M. Farmer, Chairman of the Opisthobranch Symposium 
for the June 18-21, 1972, meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists. 
"Opisthobranch subjects to present to WSM should be well in mind by 

now. Papers 15 minutes long with 5 minutes for discussion are standard. 

People do have something to contribute in the way of not yet heard of 
collecting grounds, unusual field trips, field notes, animal ecology, or 
environmental observations. Procrastination only slows the process. A 
professor once said in so many words that if you spend 'X' number of hours 
studying a nudibranch in all/part of its ramifications, are you not the 
authority on it or at least one of the authorities? So, ladies and gen- 
tlemen let's rise from the midnight oil, stand before the WSM and speak 
of our discoveries during the past 12 months, or past years. 

The Opisthobranch symposium has some four hours to expound on our 
findings through that kind of process. So, students, here is another 
opportunity for you, and for the more advanced students an opportunity to 
demonstrate your ability. 

If you anticipate giving a paper this June, please communicate and 
let your plans be known. If you have a title, please write it down and 
send it to Wesley M. Farmer, 1327 E. Donner Drive, Tempe, Arizona 85282, 
no later than April 1, 1972."

PERSONAL NOTES 


From James R. Lance (746 Agate St., San Diego, Ca 92109): "A field 
expedition to the west Mexican coast has just been completed by James 
Lance (Scripps Inst. Oceanography), Samuel Spaulding (Univ. California, 
Santa Barbara) and party. Several localities along the tropical shores 
of Estado Nyarit were visited for observing and collecting opistho- 
branchs. All specimens collected were flown back to Scripps and photo- 
graphed. Several additions to the circumtropical opisthobranch fauna 
have now been made." 


Two changes of address are listed below:

Mountain Home, Amandale-on-Hudson, 
Arkansas 72653 New York 12504 


Eveline Marcus (Caixa Postal 6994, Sao Paulo, Brazil) spent parts 
of December, January, and February collecting opisthobranchs. Her 
trip included a stop at Recife, Pernambuco, northern Brazil, where she 
collected with the help of Henry Matthews-Cera and Marc Kempf. Next she 
collected at Curagao, Netherlands Antilles,and later at Maguey Island, 
Puerto Rico. Her final stop was Miami saw Rosalie Vogel, Sally Kaicher, 
Richard Roller, and Germaine Warmke. During her 50-day trip she saw 
about 60 species. 


Donald B. Cadien (1207 Paseo del Mar, San Pedro, Ca 90731) left, 
February 9, 1972, on a four month's expedition to Costa Rica with an 
expedition from the California Academy of Sciences. 

Dr. Antonio J. Ferreira (2060 Clarmar Way, San Jose, California 
95128) expects to travel down for three weeks with the expedition.

CURRENT EVENTS 


The January 20, 1972, program of the San Diego Shell Club was pre- 
sented by Mr. David K. Mulliner and included color slides of some Ea 
seventy nudibranchs. His talk was entitled: "Identification of Nudi- 
branchs." 


The Western Society of Naturalists, December 27-30, 1971, included 
two opisthobranch papers: 


ROBILLIARD, GORDON A. 1971. Prey Specialization and its Effect on Popu- 
lation Stability and Predictability of Dendronotus (Mollusca: Opis- 
thobranchia). p.2.

READER FORUM 


From.Dr.3f.S. Roginskaya (Institute of Oceanology, Academy of 
Sciences, USSR, 1 Sadovaya, Moscow, F-387, USSR): "The radula formula 
of Cuthona conetnna according to Kaniaulono Bailey Meyer (VELIGER, 


“1971, 14(2):146, fig. 116) is 1-1-1 (1°D°l in the sense of this author). 


In spite of it the author indicates Holts conctnna A.&H. (with uniser- 

iate radula characteristic for the genus) as a synonym for her species. 
Most probably she was dealing with a species of Coryphella (it's a pity 
that the site of the anus isn't mentioned), but in no way with Cuthona, 
and C. conetnna in particular." 


CURRENT EVENTS 


The Second Annual Symposium of the Israel Malacological Society 
took place on April 2nd, 1972, at Nahariya. The inauguration of the 
Malacological Section of the Nahariya Municipal Museum took place in 
conjunction with the Symposium. 

One paper on opisthobranchs was presented at the symposium. 


SCHUHMACHER, H. 1972. On the Occurrence of the Opisthobranchiate Mol- 
luscs Wotarchus tndtcus Schweigger and Meltbe bucephala Bergh on 
Artificial Reefs of Eliat (Red Sea) With Notes on Their Swimming 
and Feeding Behaviour. 


The proceedings of the Symposium will be published in ARGAMON. 


The call for papers to be presented at the Third Annual Symposium 
of the Israel Malacological Society is out. The Symposium will be held 
in April of 1973. The papers should be original, prepared for full 
publication with an abstract of about 300 words in English, and should 
deal with all aspects of malacology of the Near East (Mediterranean, 
Red Sea in the broad sense, etc.). All accepted papers will be pub- 
lished in the ARGAMON as proceedings of the Third Annual Symposium. 
Oral presentation of a paper at the Symposium by its author is apprec-— 
iated, but not a prerequsite. All papers should be submitted by 3lst 
December, 1972, to the Israel Malacological Society, P.O. Box 9216, 
Haifa, Israel.

CURRENT EVENTS 


The call for papers is out for the 38th Annual Meeting of The 
American Malacological Union, Inc., which will be held July 9-14, 1972, 
at Galveston, Texas. Interested persons should contact Dr. Arthur S. 
Merrill, National Marine Fisheries Service, Middle Atlantic Coastal 
Fisheries Center, Oxford Laboratory, Oxford, Maryland 21654. 


The Fourth Annual Meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists 
will be held at Redlands, California, from June 18-21, 1972. To date, 
seven opisthobranch papers are scheduled. Papers are scheduled by 
Kaniaulono Bailey Meyer, Gordon A. Robilliard, Terry Gosliner & Gary 
C. Williams, Hans Bertsch, Steven J. Long, Wesley M. Farmer, and 
tentatively, Lindsay R. Winkler. 


READER FORUM 


From Kaniauliono Meyer (P.O. Box E, Coco Solo, Canal Zone)”"...Dr. 
Roginskaya is most certainly correct about that beast I erroneously 
applied the name Cuthona coneinna to. It clearly is not a cuthonid at 
all and, as she suggests is most probably a Coryphella but, not having 
the material with me, I cannot make certain of the identity." 


Comments on Henning Lemche's proposal concerning Cylindrella (O.N. 
citation number 5160) should be sent to the Assistant Secretary, the 
International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature c/o British Mus- 
eum (Natural History), Cromwell Road, London, S.W.7, England. 


READER FORUM 


Dr. Henning Lemche will visit Dr. M. Patricia Morse at Nahant, 
near Boston, from August 11 to September 14, 1972. While there he will 
study the opisthobranchs of that region. 


Dr. Kikutaro Baba is working to describe a new species of Thecacera 
on the basis of a fine specimen collected from Suruga Bay, Japan. 


Dr. Jean Tardy is still connected with the University and the Fac- 
ulty of Sciences at Poitiers along with his new activitites as director 
of the Laboratoire de Biologie et Biochimie Marines.

PERSONAL NOTES - CONTINUED 


Dr. Tardy expects to continue his studies of the systematics and 
the biology of nudibranchs with special reference to the embryology and 
reproduction of nudibranchs.

EDITOR'S NOTE 


The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER begins printing all older opistho- 
branch citations with this combined May/June issue. During the coming 
months we will print citations for all papers dealing with the subclass 
OPISTHOBRANCHIATA. 

Cephalaspidea, Acochlididoidea, Philinoglossoidea, Thecosomata, 
acoglossa, Anaspidea, Gymnosomata, Notaspidea, Nudibranchia, Ento- 
otaeniata, and Onchidiidae will ‘all be included. Each citation will 
be given a unique number in the same series as the CURRENT CITATIONS. 

A number of the citations will be incorrect or incomplete in

Subscription Rates: Individuals - $.05 per page worldwide; Institutional 
- $.10 per page worldwide. A special airmail rate is available to indi- 
viduals at $.10 per page and to institutions at $.15 per page. Please 
send subscription for a minimum of fifty pages at a time. For foreign 
subscribers please allow sufficient extra to allow for exchange costs. 


EDITORS NOTE 


The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER has been held, with rare exception, to 
four pages per month since its inception in 1969. Postage rates and 
printing costs are the primary limitations which slow or prevent the 
inclusion of many items in the O.N. 

The new subscription rate system will allow more pages per volume to 
be printed. The newsletter will still require donations and subsidies 
to continue and enlarge but these rates are more realistic for a spec- 
ialized publication. We hope that these rates will not be a burden on 
anyone. Any questions should be directed to the editor. Within the 
next few months we hope to print at least forty extra pages of the 
newsletter which will almost double the size of this volume. Checklists, 
and additional citations will be included and hopefully a few photo- 
graphs. 

Generous donations from several subscribers have helped keep the sub- 
scription rates down but more help is needed. Donations may be marked 
for special projects (e.g. - black and white photos of opisthobranchs 
or even color). A few researchers are unable to subscribe to the O.N. 
because of monetary problems either national or personal and we try to 
provide copies to every active researcher in the field. Please be cer- 
tain to note which money is donated and specify any requirements for 
its use. 


PERSONAL NOTES 


From. Dr. Kikutar6 Baba: "On May 6th this year I and Mr. I. Hamatani 
visited the Marine Science Museum of the Tokai University, and were 
offered a series of live and fine specimens, by the Museum, collected 
by the Museum's divers from Suruga Bay south of Sagami Bay. They are: 
Thecacera penntgera, Cadlinella ornatitssima, Dermatobranchopsts spp. 
and other nudibranch species, some new to science. They were examined 
from without exactly, and figured and photographed in color.

CURRENT EVENTS 


The Fifth Annual Meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists was 
held June 18th to 21st, 1972, at Redlands, California, with about fifteen 
opisthobranch people in attendance. Several good discussions were held 
among the opisthobranchers along with an excellent slide show. 

The following opisthobranch papers were presented at the meeting and 
the abstracts will appear in the ECHO later this year. The titles are 
presented below.

Mr. Edwin Janss provided a large display of color opisthobranch 
photos about sixteen by twenty inches each. and Mr. Wesley M. Farmer 
provided a display of plastic opisthobranch models which he makes. The 
San Diego Shell Club provided a display of live opisthobranchs in aquaria 
including specimens from the California coast and the Gulf of California. 
Steven Long displayed vinyl acetate models of an opisthobranch digestive 
tract and demonstrated the technique. Mr. David K. Mulliner passed on 
Many excellent opisthobranch photographic techniques during a workshop 
on photographic techniques. Mrs. Michaelene Farmer did an excellent job 
chairing the opisthobranch symposium when Wes could not attend because 
he was unable to leave work.

READER FORUM 


From Dr. Henning Lemche: "Anaspidea is in general use for an im- 
portant group of fossil fishes, as is Cephalaspidea for another group 
of fishes, and Notaspidea for a group of mites. I propose Aplysiacea, 
Bullacea, and Pleurobranchacea instead. As ordinal names they are out- 
side the rules of nomenclature. I used the three names in 1948 but was 
immediately informed of my mistake. I have myself been in the situa- 
tion of comparing the olfactory organs of the Cephalaspidea (fishes) 
with those of the Cephalaspidea (mollusca) and that is really a bad 
Situation. The names to be used are all well introduced already and 
should be preferred in the future. Agreed, the Bullacea does not cover 
exactly the Cephalaspidea, but that is an advantage as certainly the 
Aplysiacea are much more closely related to the main bulk of the Bull- 
acea than they are to the Acteonacea. Also, the Pyramidellacea - if the 
unwanted idea of considering them opisthobranchs and not a group for 
themselves is carried through - you cannot keep them outside the Bull- 
acea,and the Acteonacea inside." 


I would especially like to see a complete listing of generic names 
which fall within each of the groupings mentioned by Dr. Lemche. The 
Pyramidellacea are especially troublesome. - Steven J. Long

CURRENT CITATIONS 


The Bibliography of Opisthobranchia will be continued as time per- 
mits. All citations which are found at a later date or corrected will 
be presented in with the CURRENT CITATIONS section. When a citation is 
recited in the newsletter the bracketed comment "Replaces citation num- 
ber xxxx" will appear. A list of all such deleted citation numbers will 
be maintained and printed at intervals in numerical sequence. 

Many people have helped with citations for the Bibliography of Opis- 
thobranchia including Richard A. Roller, Wesley M. Farmer, Eveline Mar- 
cus, James Carlton, Kikutaro Baba, and Henry D. Russell. Their efforts 
have added much to the number of citations. I am including all citations 
from Hoffmann and from the Russell bibliography even though many of them 
are not complete in pagination and other information. It is my hope that 
readers will send in any additional, information, citations, or correc=" 
tions which come to their attention so that a complete bibliography will 
eventually develop. The final bibliography should exceed 4,000 citations.

NAMES OF OPISTHOBRANCHS PLACED 
ON THE OFFICIAL LISTS AND INDEXES 
BEFORE) 1972- 


Henning Lemche 


Below, a reference iS given to names of opisthobranchs Ritherto 
placed on the Official Lists and Indexes of the International Commission 
On Zoological Nomenclature. Only some of the rejected names may not be 
of opisthobranchs but may be homonyms of such ones, included in order 
to avoid difficulties in future interpretation of this list. The LISTS 
contain the names to be used, whereas the INDEXES are those expressively 
rejected or in other ways invalid on formal reasons. The three cate- 
gories, families, genera, and species, are given separately and, to 
make erroneous use of the records more difficult, ail Lists are given 
first, followed by all Indexes. The letters "P.P." indicate that the 
Plenary Powers have been used by the Commission. The name given behind 
the authors name and date in the List of species refers to the original 
generic name used.

Cases "subjudice" (applications published, under consideration) : 


Okenta Menke, 1830 to be placed on the Official List, as are Idaltella 
Bergh, 1881 and Cargoa Vogel & Schultz, 1970, the two latter only if 
considered generically different from Okenta. Idalta elegans Leuckart, 
1828 and Idalta aspersa Alder & Hancock, 1845, specific names on the 
Official List. The generic name Idalla @rsted, 1844, and the specific 
name Idalla caudata Srsted, 1844 on the Official Indexes (as rejected).

LemcHe - NAMES oF OPISTHOBRANCHS - CONTINUED, 


Additionally, Doris quadrtecornts Montagu, 1815, is now also to be pro- 
posed for rejection. 

Aglaja Renier, 1807, with its two species deptcta and tricolorata, both 
of Renier, 1807 (published in a work else rejected for nomenclatorial 
purposes). This case was delayed for many years because of misunder- 
standing caused by the death of one of the applicants. 

Cylindrella Swainson, 1840, to be suppressed, and Cylichna Loven, 1846, 
with the species Bulla cylitndracea Pennant, 1777, on the Official Lists. 


Cases under preparation: 


Doris Linnaeus, 1858 and its type species Dorts verrucosa Linnaeus, 1758. 
Taken strictly, Doris verrucosa is a Phyllidta from the W. Pacific, and 
the resurrection of that name in its formal sense would lead to terrible 
confusion. On the othex hand, it is much desirable that the name Joris 
should be used, and if possible with its original type. Dorts verrucosa 
Cuvier, is no separate name, but seems a redescription on new material 
(from Isle de France) of a species supposed to be that described by Lin- 
naeus. The general use for the name Dorts verrucosa has been for a Med- 
iterranean/Lusitanian species, the proper name for which is Dorts dere- 
lieta Fischer, 1867. This species seems to offer the only possibility 
for reintroducing the name Doris, as Fischer's name has not been able to 
compete successfully with the alleged "Dorts verrucosa" and so cannot be 
Claimed to have established itself "in general use." The type species 
of dereltcta Fischer does not seem to be extant (anybody knowing some-. 
thing about the fate of that material is urged to communicate this know- 
ledge to me as soon as. possible). I am going to propose as.neotype. for 
Dorts verrucosa Linnaeus, 1758, a specimen of Dorts derelteta Fischer 
collected by me at Arcachon - the locality where Fischer obtained his 
type(s) of derelicta. (The Rules of Nomenclature do not accept type lo- 
calities for defining species - which seems to be a fact overlooked by 
most zoologists). Thereby, I hope to put an end to the uncertainty over 
this whole problem. ; 
Embtetonta palltda Alder & Hancock, 1854, to be placed on the Official 
List (specific names) and Tergipes adspersus Nordmann, 1845 (Black Sea) 
to be suppressed. 


Cases in preparation but not “yet presented to: the Commission: 


Aeoltdtella soemmerringit Leuckart, 1828, was placed on the Official List 
(specific) as type of Aeoltdtella some years before Tardy showed that 
this species was probably a synonym of A. aldert. I am now trying to ob- 
tain a specimen from a place as near as possible to Cette (Sete) on the 
French Mediterranean coast, of the species A. aidert, to make it the neo- 
type of sommerringtt Leuckart, which will protect the Official List from 
a most unwanted change (if these Lists are to be of any use at all, they 
Simply must be unchangeable). I am most sorry not to have found this 
difficulty when, in the 1950-ies, I asked for action in that case. 
Onehtdorts muriecata Mtiller, 1776 has recently been found to have been 


based on a species from another genus. So, the name murteata cannot be 
retained in its accustomed sense unless validated for it under the Plen- 
ary Powers. The next name for the species in question is (apparently) 


aspera Alder & Hancock, 1842. We must now choose between asking for the 
preservation of murteata, or suppress it (also under the Plenary Powers). 
If nothing is done, the name will come in use for a shallow water species 
from the same region as muricata and thus cause endless confusion. Per- 


~ OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER Aucust 15, 1972, Votume IV(8):39, 


LemcHe - Names oF OPISTHOBRANCH - CONTINUED, ~ 


sonally, I favor the preservation of murtecata, but I would like to 

know whether my colleagues have the same opinion? . 
Acteocitna Gray is based on the fossil Acteon wetherelli Lea, 1833 - and 
thus there is no possibility ever to know whether it had a radula or 
not. This problem has been brought to my attention by Dr. E. du B.R. 
Marcus, with an urge to do something to remedy it. Retusa Brown, 1827, 
is known to have no radula at all, whereas Tornatina Adams, 1850, type 
Bulla voluta Quoy & Gaimard, 1832, is generally considered to possess 
one, though the type species was not inspected for it. I have now my- 
self studied some material from the Kermadec Islands of what definitely 
seems to be that species, and I found a radula to be present. It would 
therefore now be possible to distribute the species into two groups ac- 
cording to whether they have a radula or not, viz, to Tornatina or to 
Retusa, but Aecteocitna has three years of priority over Tornatina, and 
nobody knows whether the type was a Retusa or a Tornattna. It would 
seem, however, that exactly this situation presents a good solution on 
our problems, if, under the Plenary Powers, Acteocina is rejected for 
the purpose of serving as a typical generic name but, instead, be ac- 
cepted for a query-group in the same manner as - say - 'Cysticercus"” - 
to embrace all those species on which no knowledge has been obtained 

as to whether they possess a radula or not. This "genus" would then 
comprise all the fossils - forever - and those recent species of which 
the soft parts have not yet become sufficiently well studied. 


Any other opinions? 


PERSONAL NOTES 


Mr. Sam Spaulding is a recent subscriber to the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWS- 


LEEEER. Mr. Sam Spaulding

Santa Barbara, Ca 93110 


Mr. Donald B. Cadien and Dr. Antonio J. Ferreira have both recently 
returned from a collecting expedition in Costa Rica with a group from 
Steinhart Aquarium. Several new opisthobranch species were found. 

Dr. Ferreira also spent a while collectiag in Hawaii during June. 


In March Steven J. Long, Peter Oringer, and David Mulliner were 
all in Mexico collecting. During Easter vacation Gary C. Williams and 
Terry Gosliner collected at San Felipe, Baja California. Dave Mulliner 
went to Guyamas, Sonora, Mexico, and Long and Oringer went down the 
Baja peninsula, passing through El Rosario, Bahia de Los Angeles, 
Bahia San Luis Gonzaga, Puertocitos, and San Felipe. 


In middle May James R. Lance and Sam Spaulding collected in Santa 
Barbara County and, with Steven Long, in Pismo Beach, California. 


CURRENT EVENTS 


The 1973 meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists will in- 
clude a symposium on opisthobranch techniques. Papers on any aspect 
of techniques are requested. The papers should be from five to fif- 
teen minutes in length with a full, written paper and an abstract of 
less that 200 words. Authors need not be present at the meeting but

they are most welcome. The full papers will be printed in the OPISTHO- 
BRANCH NEWSLETTER after the meetings. The abstracts will appear in the 
ECHO. 

The intent is to produce a group of technique articles which cover 
the full range of opisthobranch techniques. Radular preparation, dissec- 
tion, vital staining, Scanning electron microscopy preparation, preserva- 
tion methods, photographic techniques, collecting techniques are just a 
few of the possible topics. The final result will be useful to many of 
uS aS a quick-reference research tool. 

Please contact Steven J. Long with all proposals for articles. 


INFORMATIONS DE LA SOCIETE BELGE DE MALACOLOGIE, 1(3),for March, 1972, 
has a review of two papers by M.H. Daro and a line drawing plate with six 
opisthobranch species: Aeoltdia papillosa, Tergtpes despectus, Potycera 
quadriltieata, Facelitna coronata, Ancula gtbbosa & Dendvonotus arbires- 
cens. 


The first annual convention of the Conchologists of America is to be 
held in Middletown, Rhode Island, October 13-15, 1972. This will be an 
organizational meeting with the establishment of bylaws and the election 
of officers.

PERSONAL NOTES 


From Dr. Irena S. Roginskaya, Institute of Oceanology, Academy of 
Sciences, Moscow, USSR..."This summer (end of June - August 15) I was 
collecting Nudibranchia in Barents Sea: Seven Islands (Ckharlov Island), 
Aynovskye Islands (Big Aynov Island) and Dalnije Zelentsy; mainly in 
littoral pools." These collecting locations are on the northernmost 
coast of mainland U.S.S.R., in the general vicinity of the port of 
Murmansk. Be

Dr. A. Myra Keen (Stanford University, Stanford, California 94305) 
is currently working on the Sacoglossan section of the "Treatise on In- 
vertebrate Paleontology." 


From Dr. Larry Harris (University of New Hampshire, Durham, New Hamp- 
shire 03824)..."a very large study, in which I am now involved,...invol- 
ves describing the environmental impact on benthic communities of a simu- 
lated commercial operation in Massachusetts Bay. Several species of 
nudibranchs are major components in the communities I will be studying | 
and I'm quite excited about the potential for getting at nudibranch popu- | 
lations within the framework of this study." | 


Mrs. Eveline Marcus (Sao Paulo, Brazil) is back in Sao Paulo after 
her visit to Cananeia. She sends along an amusing note from a Dall paper. 
Dall (Bull. Mus. Harvard vol. 18:42, 1889) copied by Pilsbry (Tryon's 
Manual, *vol.15:161, 1894). 

"In this, ... the fold or ridge on the columella is faint, though not 
entirely absent, and is best seen from the side; in fact, it is almost 
invisible in all [Acteons] from in front as the figures are viewed. The 
columella in these figures, however, is drawn as straighter and broader 
than it really appears; but in these particulars it is very difficult to 
get a draughtsman who knows nothing of shells to catch the characteristic 
curves in every instance." [Underline by editor] t 

This is one arguement for doing your own drawings, according to Mrs. 
Marcus. 

Mrs. Marcus is planning a trip to Germany and England next summer. 


Dr. Richard Greene (University of Notre Dame, College of Science, 
Notre Dame, Indiana 46556) left for Florida on August 17 th. He will do 
some collecting while there.

San Francisco, California, from September 6 - 8, 1972. 


INFORMATION EXCHANGE 


From Linda Stephens (The Marine Biomedical Institute, The University 
of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston, 200 University Boulevard, Galveston, 
Texas 77550): "It has become imperative that Dr. Howard O. Wright's ad- 
dress be found. The reason for this need lies with a desire to further 
investigate an article he wrote in the 1959-1960 issue of THE VELIGER 
dealing with aggregations of Aplysta caltfornitca in an area of Bodega 
Bay, California. Further communication with him on this matter will 
greatly help the cause. If you know of his address or could suggest a 
way to determine it, your efforts will be greatly appreciated. The last 
known address was University of California, Berkeley but communication to 
tnat address was returned."

EDITOR’s NOTE 


In the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER (IV(7):30) I made the statement "I 
am including all citations from Hoffman and from the Russell bibliography 
even though many of them are not complete in pagination and other infor- 
IMation." I should have transposed the names Hoffman and Russell as I 
was merely indicating that the Hoffman bibliography carries NO pagination 
while the Russell bibliography carries pagination in almost all instances. 
I was certain that most opisthobranch researchers have access to both 
bibliographies and would not misread my statement. No criticism of the 
Index Nudibranchia was intended.

Catriona - Trinehesta. 
by - Malcolm Edmunds. 


The Catrtona-Trinchesta question seems quite clear to me. There 
seems to be little change since my paper of 1968 on eolids from Ghana 
(Bull. Mar. Sci.). In short, I recognize as Catriona species with a 
receded cusp to the radula, in which the lateral denticles are small 
but predominent ridges, and with secondary denticles between some of 
them. This is difficult to describe, but if you compare the radula 
plate of C. maua or my C. tema with that of my 1970 7. momella, you 
will see that momella has typical projecting fingerlike denticles, 
whilst Catrtona have ridges with only a slight projection forming: the 
denticle. The median cusp is also predominantly a ridge in Catriona, 
but a projecting denticle in Trinchesita. This is even true of those 
Trinehesta which have a very short cusp. Trinchesia has the cusp 
pointed, but not a ridgé; and although it may have minute secondary 
denticles, the denticles are finger-like processes. 

Next, Catriona usually retains the pre-radular teeth. In my 1968 
paper I quote my own observations on C. aurantta as well as observa~ 
tions on maua and tema. The pre-radula may be missing in some indivi- 
duals but is often present, and the smallest teeth are extremely min- 
ute. In frinehesia the pre-radula is never retained and the smallest 
teeth present in a large slug are of fair size. 

Bristles occur on the jaw of maua, tema and aurantia (personal ob- 
servation). They do not occur in Trinchesia. Also there is a charac- 
teristic shape of Catrtona alive which is distinctive, but I cannot 
define this. 

Roller (Veliger 11:421) also discusses the problem. He shows that 
Cratena spadix MacFarland is also a Catriona, but he is in error when 
he says Trinehesta has no accessory denticles on the radula, and that 
the cusp is not receded; both of these can occur in Trinchesta as in 
Catrtona. 

I am convinced that [Trinchesia contains several very different 
"types", but at present I can see no way of splitting them. T7. pereca 
belongs to a group quite distinct from 7. tina whose radular shape is 
so variable. 7. momella belongs to yet another distinct type, prob- 
ably as different as is Catrtona, but I cannot see the differences 
clearly enough to separate them. 

I have never seen a Cuthona. Until C. nana is described properly 
we are in trouble, but I regard it as having no stylet on the penis.

AN ANNOTATED CHECKLIST OF THE NUDIBRANCHS AND THEIR ALLIES FROM THE 


WEST COAST OF NORTH AMERICA. by GALE G. SPHON (Curatorial Assistant, 


Invertebrate Zoology, Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, Los 
Angeles, California 90007) 


In the past 10 years interest and work on opisthobranchs has inten- 
sified, especially for the west coast of North America. Even with this 
great new interest there remains much to be done on the systematics and 
distribution of the group. 

Many California species are fairly common, both intertidally and 
subtidally, but have yet to be described. Additional collecting re- 
cords are badly needed from areas north of Vancouver Island and south 
of Ensenada. The Central American coast is virtually untouched, and 
only lately has interest been aroused in material from the Gulf of 
Californias 

Distribution of opisthobranchs within some of the California coun- 
ties (Sphon and Lance, 1968; Roller and Long, 1969; Roller, 1970b; 
Gosliner and Williams, 1970; and Bertsch, et. al, 1972) has been re- 
ported. The northern limits of many species have been reported as 
Dillon Beach, California; Friday Harbor, Washington, or Nanaimo (Van- 
couver Island), Canada. These are localities where marine stations 
are located and extensive collecting has been done. They are not natu- 
ral barriers and it is to be expected that many species ranges will be 
extended when more collecting has been done in northern areas. 

Several excellent overall lists (Steinberg, 1961, 1963a, 1963b; 
Lance, 1961, 1966) for material north of the U.S.--Mexican border have 
been published. All of these publications will be of great importance 
in future years. They will serve as a standard to check against if the 
pollution of our bays, harbors and coast lines continues. Many of 
these articles include habitat information and a few include abbrevia- 
ted synonymies. Beeman (1968) has reviewed the order Anaspidea; Robil- 
liard the genera Dendronotus (1970) and Polycera (1972); and Thompson 
(1971) the genus Tritonta. These articles have made major contribu- 
tions in the understanding of the ecology and distribution of these 
groups. They have also helped to stabilize the systematics. 

Steinberg (1961) and Thompson (1971) have declared several species 
names to be nomina dubta because the original descriptions were inade- 
quate, the types either lost or not available, or the species not col- 
lected or recognized since the time it was originally described. A 
list of these names will be found at the end of the text. Steinberg, 
(1963c:66) has also declared Antiopeltla aureocincta MacFarland, 1966, 
to be a nomen nudum. 

Pleurobranchus caltfornteus denticulatus MacFarland, 1966, and 
Chromodorts bankst sonora Marcus and Marcus, 1967, have been elevated 
from sub-specific to specific rank. Roller (1970a:372) nas discussed 
the reasons for the Pleurobranehus and Keen (1971:822) has done so foi 
the Chromodorts.

The present list is an attempt to bring the many and varied 
publications on the distribution of externally shell-less opistho- 
branchs of North America together. The Marcus and Marcus (1967) 
publication was a major contribution to the study of the Panamic 
fauna. They described and illustrated many new species. Keen 
(1971) listed and figured most of the Panamic forms and included 
a few of the California species that have been found in more 
southern waters. Mrs, Kaniaulono B. Meyer has supplied me with 
several new records from Panama and I have included records from 
Galapagos material collected by the Ameripagos Expedition in March, 
1971. 

Opisthobranch records for externally shell-less forms from 
south of Panama are very few and scattered throughout the litera- 
ture. I have, therefore, not attempted to cover the west coast of 
South America. Only when the range of a North American species 
is well known and does extend further south, or is a new record 
from a specific locality, have I included it. 

This list is arranged alphabetically by genus. In many cases, 
synonyms and generic changes are listed with a refferal to the cur- 
rently accepted name combination. Where possible, bathymetric ran- 
ges have also been given. Following the author and date of the 
species-group name, I have tried to indicate sources for distribu- 
tional, habitat, or systematic information. In some cases, these 
additional sources are merely listings of the species. In the 
case of some recently described species, there are no additional 
records. The majority of the Panamic species are treated in Marcus 
and Marcus (1967) or Keen (1971). MacFarland (1966) and Keen (1971) 
also treat many of the California species. O'Donoghue (1922, 1926) 
cited many species from British Columbia, Canada. 

The list contains 230 valid name combinations, plus 2 (Robo- 
astra and Dorts) listed by genus only; 1 nomen nuda; and 7 nomtina 
dubta. Synonyms and generic changes have been entered because 


they are frequently found in the literature in the form listed. 
I have not attempted to give complete synonymies for each species. 
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 


I wish to thank the many persons who have critically read the 
MS for their help and suggestions. The final decisions are, of 
course, my own.

the problems of Nomenclature handled there. An important change 
was that in the Rules of Nomenclature, Article 23b (on "limitation") 
was formally abandoned because of the extreme difficulties in its 
proper formulation but its aim was confirmed! A simplified proceed- 
ure for asking the Commission for suppression of forgotten names is 
being introduced, so that a few lines with the basic information of 
the case is to be sent to the secretariate of the Commission which 
will then publish the names in the first issue of the Bulletin [of 
Zoological Nomenclature], thereby fixing the use of the commonly 
used name until the Commission has looked at the case. It is hoped 


that this solution will bring to an end the hard fight on this point .

From Mrs. Virginia Waters: "I spent a very interesting summer 
in Plymouth, England, working on the food preference of Aeolidia 
there and on the defensed of the anemones, with Dr. Geoff Potts on 
the staff of the lab and with Dr. Edmunds from Ghana. We found a 
pretty clear-cut order of preference as I had for the beasts here, 
and found that A. elegantissima (which I had brought with me) was 
among the most preferred ones there as here. The most preferred 
anemor showed an unexpected method of escape--they moved away 
by pedal waves of detachment--similar to that used by gastropods, 
but slower. The waves are fast enough to see, but: just:barely, so 

e took time lapse movie to see if it would show more easily 

tle ansmonies were doing, which it did indeed. The hydrostatic 
se eton seems to play an important part; maybe we have found 

hing interest anemone physiologists. Anyway, we think we 
me publishable results of that study. Potts and I also 
tried to investigate the question of whether or not bright colors 
in nudibvanchs and anemones may serve as warning coloration, but 
got nowhere fast."

CURRENT EVENTS 
Gordon A. Robilliard and David K. Mulliner will do the opistho- 


‘branch symposium at the 1973 Western Society of Malacologists meet- 


ing - barring major problems. One paper has already been received - 


on general collecting techniques, preservation, carmine staining, 


and clearing. Tentative papers will deal with various techniques 
useful in the study of opisthobranchs - determination of photosyn- 
thetic function in algal and chloroplast symbionts in opisthobranchs; 
photography of opisthobranchs; preparing systematic papers: cold- 
water collection techniques; and serial reconstruction of reproduc- 
tive organs. : 

This symposium provides a unique opportunity to researchers as 
the text of all papers will be printed in the O.N., providing a 
useful reference source. Please plan to attend the June meeting 
at Asilomar Conference Grounds and present a technique paper. If 
you will be unable to attend please send a paper to be read at the 
meetings. 


December 16-17, 1972 should see a number of opisthobranch people 
coming to Pismo Beach for a winter opisthobranch meeting. We hope 
that anyone who is able to come to the west coast will be here. 
There will be at least one good minus tide on Sunday afternoon and 
a great opportunity to compare collection notes and slides.

Thanks from the editors to Dr. Luise Schmekel for providing 
several drawings for the O.N. These drawings, including the one 
in this issue, were done by Miss Ilona Richter, Kiskunhalas, Tabor 
U 13/Hungary. 


From Dr. A. Myra Keen (2241 Hanover Street, Palo Alto, Califor- 
nia, 94306) "...there are some generic names that present problems. 
For example, one source cites Aplystopsts Deshayes, 1864 and an 
Aplystopsts Bergh, 1898 with the implication that they are the same, 
Neave's nomenclator indicates that they are not. I looked up the 
Deshayes figure, and to my eyes it does look like a sacoglossan. 
Thiele, however, does not mention either. He cites an Aplystopterua 
Della Chiage, 1829 as a synonym of Hlysta. I consulted Eales' work 
on Aplysta and can find no mention of either of these generic names, 
Have you any ideas? Then there is #lystella, which Thiele credits 
to Verrill, 1872. Neave's nomenclator credits it to Bergh, 1872 
and says it is not the Flystella of Verrill. What, then, is Bergh's 
taxon? 

Lastly, I have the problem of the dates for family-group taxa. 

I find Lobigeridae mentioned by recent authors; Boettger implies 
that it was proposed by Pruvot-Fol in 1954, presumably in "Faune de 
France," but I do not have this work available. I note that Thiele 
in 1929 uses Elysiidae. I wonder whether Elysiacea was used earlier, 

Any suggestions will be welcomed!" 

Dr. Keen is searching out names and dates for genera of shelled 
and non-shelled opisthobranchia to be used in the "Treatise on In- 
vertebrate Paleontology," and will welcome any help offered. 


From Robert Burn (3 Nantes St., Newtown, Geelong, Victoria, 
3220, Australia): "Well-known Australian collector/photographer 
Neville Coleman, now travelling along the north-western coastline 
of Western Australia, has in the past six months sent 180 lots of 
opisthobranchs to Robert Burn for incorporation in studies on the 
Australian fauna. One of his best finds to date is a number of 
species of Mariana rosea Pruvot-Fol 1930 (= Aranueus btfidis 
Odhner 1936)." 


For those who are not sure of the location for Kaniaulono 
Bailey Meyer's species list (O.N. IV(9):48-49), Galatea Island is 
on the Atlantic side of the Isthmus of Panama, near Colon. It is 
the site of the Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute. The 
list is the result of more than a year's collecting and observing 
on the Island.

READER FORUM 


= certainly hope that no-one seriously considers dropping the 

‘names Anaspidea, Cephalaspidea, and Notaspidea in favor of the 

_- names Aplysiacea, Bullacea, and Pleurobranchacea as suggested by 

- Henning Lemche in the ON Reader Forum of 17 July, 1972. Dr. Lemche 

wrote to me on this same point when I was preparing my review of 
the Order Anaspidea and I looked into the matter quite carefully 
and then rejected the idea of adopting the name Aplysiacea as the 
ordinal name. Among those who helped me make this decision, or 
have strengthened my viewpoint since, are Michael Ghiselin, Rudolph 
Stohler, Myra Keen, James Carlton, Joan Steinberg, and several 
other very knowledgeable workers. While I appreciate Dr. Lemche's 
concern for a lack of confusion there simply isn't a problem here. 
As he mentions, this matter is outside the rules of nomenclature 
as the names are at the ordinal level. This is precisely why 
they are outside the rules of nomenclature; there simply is almost 
no chance of confusion. The towns of Moscow, Idaho and Moscow, 
Russia don*t seem to get mixed up and yet they are far closer in 
nature than the sea slugs of the Anaspidea and Notaspidea and the 
fossil fish and mites of the other Anaspidea and Notaspidea respec- 
tively. Whoever accused Dr. Lemche of making a mistake in using 
these names was the one who made the real mistake. The names 
Anaspidea, Cephalaspidea, and Notaspidea are finally quite well 
stabilized in the already overconfused opisthobranch literature. 
They also have the advantage of being broadly descriptive instead 
of leaning on the type concept which is rejected by modern biology 
as do the names Aplysiacea, Bullacea, and Pleurobranchacea. The 
name Aplysiacea would seem to exclude the Akeratidae which both my- 
self (Beeman, 1968) and Ghiselin (1966) have fully documented as 
belonging in the Anaspidea. It is certainly clear, however, that 
the group Cephalaspidea (as well as the Nudibranchia) needs much 
work and redefinition TOUEanoO tL asnane Change just because some

groups are added or deleted or even because some vastly different 
fossil vertebrate bears the same ordinal name. I agree with Dr. 
Lemche that neither the Pyramidellidae nor the Acteonidae should 
be included in the Cephalaspidea; please note that Ghiselin (1966), 
stating his reasons clearly, placed these two groups in different 
clades quite separate from the "regular" Cephalaspidea - in fact, 
he diagrams the pyramidellids, the pulmonates, and the opistho- 
branchs as different clades of the Euthyneura. - From Robert D. 
Beeman, Marine Biology Department, California State University, 

San Francisco, Ca 94132. 


From Dr. A. Myra Keen - SACOGLOSSA versus ASCOGLOSSA. 

Although priority for ranks higher than family-group names is 
not mandantory under the International Cade, it can be a convenient 
means for reaching decisions. We can dismiss Stichoglossata and 
Monostichoglossata of Pagenstecher, 1874, as not having been ac- 
cepted by authors. But Sacoglossa and Ascoglossa have been used 
cepeatedly and alternatively. Here priority may well be invoked. 
The facts seem to be as follows: 

Von Ihering in an article entitled “Versuch eines nattirlichen 
Systemes der Mollusken" (Jahrb. d. Deutsch. Malakoz. Gesell., vol. 
3, pt. 2, pp. 97-148, 1876) proposed to divide the opisthobranchs 
into severai orders, the second being Phanerobranchia [i.e., Nudi- 
branchia], the third Sacoglossa, comprising Limapontiidae, Elysi- 
idae, Phyllobranchidae, Plakobranchidae, Hermaeidae, and Lopho- 
cercidae. In a postscript on page 148 he said (free translation) : 
"Before forwarding the manuscript to the present journal I sent an 
abstract to my good friend Herr Dr. Rud. Bergh in Copenhagen. I 
had the pleasure of seeing that he shares in general my views.... 
One of the large difficulties that faced me in the grouping of 
genera and families in the Opisthobranchia seemed to me to be 
solved by erection of my Sacoglossa. ft was a great reassurance 
to me that Bergh told me that, oddly enough, my order Sacoglossa 
corresponded tQ an Order that he already had in manuscript under 
the name Ascoglossa...." 

Bergh seems not to have put the name into print until 1877, 
whereas the Von Ihering paper appeared some time between March 
and July of 1876. In two citations of the names in 1877, Bergh 
indicates their equivalence and implies that although his Asco- 
glossa was in manuscript, the name appeared first in print in Von 
Ihering's postscript. This being the case, Sacoglossa not only 
has priority but was also selected by Von Ihering as the accepted 
name, with Ascoglossa as a synonym (that is, Von Ihering may be 
considered as the "first reviser"). Bergh later vacillated be- 
tween use of his Ascoglossa and Von Ihering's Sacoglossa, and in 
this he set a fashion. I suggest we revert to Sacoglossa. 


From Robert D. Beeman -- The matter of accepting material for 
the ON which might be published elsewhere should be considered. 
Kani Meyer's species list in the September, 1972 issue is a good 
example. From a practical aspect such an item becomes a real 
problem. If one were making a range list up for opisthobranchs - 


OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER JANUARY, 1973, VCS 


READER FORUM - CONTINUED - BEEMAN. 


it would seem wrong to overlook her fine observations; it would be 
wrong to use the information without citation; and it would be 

wrong to cite it from the ON if the ON really is not a "publication." 
It is my feeling that such quoteable material, which is not just 
"news," should not be printed in the ON - until it can be reviewed 

- a process which all articles submitted for publicatton should be 
subjected to. 


EDITOR’S COMMENT -- It seems there is a continuing argument over 
the status of the ON as a publication source. I do not feel quali- 
fied to make any final decision without the comments of many read- 
ers and would appreciate all :comments and arguments. My general 
feelings lean toward printing all range notes and other short notes 
on ecological observations. I would exclude all taxonomic decisions 
and new species descriptions on the basis of the low circulation 

of the ON. It is fine to expect all range information and ecological 
notes to wait for the professionals major revisions but too many 

of these same "PROFESSIONALS" die before completing their major 
revisions. The few who complete, and publish, their revisions 

would do a better job if they could use the ON as a source to con- 
tact other individuals with information concerning their revisions. 
There is also a value to having a place for the informal discussion 
of scientific questions.

INFORMATION EXCHANGE 


From Dr. Eric R. Kandel (New York University Medical Center, 
Neurobiology and Behavior, The Public Health Research Institute of 
the City of New York, 455 First Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10016): 

..-my work is under neural mechanisms of behavior in Aplysia. But 
I am interested in Opisthobranch behavior and embryology in general 
and would appreciate as much information as I can obtain from long- 
term students of Opisthobranchs such as yourself and your colleagues." 


Dr. Antonio J. Ferreira (2060 Clarmar Way, San Jose, Ca 95128) 
is working on the genus Triopha. The study will cover all species 
found on the Pacific coast of North America. Dr. Ferreira would 
appreciate specimens preserved in 10% formalin in sea water from 
as many regions of the Pacific coast as possible. If it is not 
possible to preserve in formalin please note on the label the 
fluid in which the animal is preserved. Please send the specimens 
to Dr. Ferreira at his San Jose address. 


CURRENT EVENTS 


From Gordon A. Robilliard: "As mentioned in the last issue of 
ON, Dave Mulliner and I have taken responsibility for organizing 
the "Opisthobranch Symposium" for the 1973 Western Society of Mala- 
cologists Meeting at Asilomar. We intend to stay with the the 
general theme that Steve established, i.e., methods of collection 
and of studying the systematics and biology of opisthobranchs. 
This includes a wide range of topics and hopefully does not prevent 
anyone who wants to from giving a paper. We will interpret 
"methods" very liberally. Please address all correspondence re~ 
garding papers, etc. to:

or call 714-225-9831. We tentatively plan an informal session for 
those interested in opisthobranchs to exchange views, information, 
slides, etc." 


The mid-winter opisthobranch meeting was held at the home of 
Steve & Karen Long on December 16 & 17, 1972. Sandra Crane, Ron 
Long, Don Cadien, Gary McDonald, Ed Koepsel, Chris Kitting, Jay 
Shrake, Jim Lance, Dave Mulliner, Gale Sphon, and Wes Farmer were 
among those attending. 

People started arriving Eriday afternoon and some stayed until 
the following Tuesday morning. Collections were made at local 
beaches on Saturday, Sunday, and Monday with a collection on the 
floats at Avila Beach's third pier on Monday morning. Color slides 
and a 45 minute color movie of opisthobranchs were shown on Satur~ 
day night. 

We hope that another meeting will be arranged somewhere in 
California next winter. 


PUBLICATION NOTES 


Copies of many older papers on opisthobranchs will be made 
available as a service to researchers at a cost of $.07 per page 
with a minimum charge of $.50. These single copies will be mailed 
post-paid. 

The purpose of this service is to make copies quickly available 
to anyone requiring them. If a paper is not available here I will 
attempt to obtain one as quickly as possible. 

Please list the ON citation number and the author when request- 
ing papers. If the paper has not been listed in the ON please 
give a complete citation including pagination when ordering. 
Microfilm copies (or microfiche) will be available for many non- 
copyright papers. 

I hope that this service will relieve some of the pressure on 
the interlibrary loan service and also some of our researchers 
who have long-since run out of reprints for certain papers. We 
do not intend to supply copies of papers currently for sale. 

Please send your requests and see what we can do. We hope 
that some of you will send in your last extra copy of reprints on 
opisthobranchs so we may use it to supply copies to others and 
also for indexing and citing in the ON. 

May we remind you once again that the ON is not a large institu- 
tion and we do not have support from anyone except our few subscri- 
bers. The ON is compiled, edited, printed, and distributed by 
Steven J. Long - with only occasional help from my wife, Karen, 
and other subscribers. There is no staff of secretaries and all 
expenses come from subscriptions - and my full-time job in industry. 
Your support and comments are desperately needed!

PERSONAL Notes 


From Dr. Dennis Nichols, Executive Director of Beta Research 
Oceanographic Laboratories, Inc. (4150 Peppertree Lane, San Jose, 
Cataitorniia 95127): I should also: like two inform you that Dr A. 
Ferreira, Mr. E. Gaffaney and several other staff members of Beta 
Research are now working on a ‘Lecture-book' will consist of num- 
erous photographs presented in a booklet with a tape which may be 
played while examining the photographs. Although the first effort 
will be general, we hope to produce several series dealing with 
individual genera in the future." 


From Eveline Marcus (Caixa Postal 6994, Sao Paulo, Brazil): 
u..-L fly to Miami in April, and with stops along the east side 
go to St. Andrews-on-the-sea, New Brunswick, to accompany a Mac- 
Gill embryological invertebrate course. Later I go - really 
fly - to Europe to see old and new friends, Germany and England, 
and expect to return about August." 


Dr. M. Patricia Morse reports that she spent her sabbatical 
leave working in England and Europe. Her sabbatical included 
Electron Microscopy with the University of Leeds, study with 
Professor Alastair Graham, a visit with the Lemches, visits to 
Kristineberg and the Swedish Riksmuseet. Most of her studies con- 
cerned the epithelium of nudibranchs. 

Dr. Morse is back at Northeastern University' s Marine Science 
Institute continuing her research and studies. 


READER FoRUM 


From Dr. Malcolm Edmunds (Department of Zoology, University of 
Ghana, Legon, Ghana): "I was very interested to read Robert Beeman's 
defense of the ordinal names Cephalaspidea, Anaspidea and Notaspidea 
in the January ON. My views are rather similar to those of Dr. 
Lemche, but it may interest readers to hear my reasons. Classifi- 
cation is not designed for the specialist, but should be a help 
and convenience to the general zoologist. When I started post- 
graduate research I well remember thumbing through Pruvot-Fol's 
"Mollusques Opisthobranches' and discovering these three incredible 
names which I could never thereafter associate with t} Gonrect 

rour of animals. I even looked up my verteb yaate va LO, (Gon fim

that the spelling of Anaspidea was the same for both taxons —- an 
almost as unfortunate duplication as that of the two groups of 
Decapoda. Consider the poor student: there are three easily mem- 
orable orders of prosobranchs, but 8, 9, or 10 orders of opistho- 
branchs. A general zoological education will have introduced him 
to Aplysia, Doris and Holts (more likely as HZolis than as an exist- 
ing genus), and also perhaps to Bulla and Pleurobranechus. How 

much easier it would be if all the orders or suborders had names 
derived from the principal and best known genera than if they are 
quite different. 

Dr. Beeman argues that using Aplysiacea, Bullacea etc. perpet- 
uates the type concept which is now rejected by modern biology, 
but this is a fallacious argument. Agreed, one no longer teaches 
dogfish as a fish, frog as an amphibian and rabbit as a typical 
mammal, but one still uses these animals a lot because they are 
usually readily available and are good experimental material. Use 
of Aplysiacea does not exclude Akera just as it does not exclude 
Phyllaplysia, and use of Pleurobranchacea does not exclude Umbracu- 
Zum, nor does Doridacea exclude Corambe. Hence, I favor names 
derived from a typical member of the group for the sake of the 
poor student or general zoologist who is not a specialist in opis- 
thobranchs. 

This raises another point on names. Taylor and Sohl (whose 
work I must quote from memory as it is not available in Ghana) 
recommend use of -oidea for the suborders Doridoidea, Eolidoidea 
etc. They prefer, to keep -acea for the superfamilies, if my mem- 
ory is correct, and this consistency of ending for certain taxa 
is obviously to be encouraged since it simplifies life for the 
non-specialist. So perhaps we should use Bullomorpha, Aplysiomor- 
pha and Pleurobranchomorpha, as Thompson and Bebbington do, and’ 
keep the -acea terms for superfamilies. Views of ON subscribers 
on this would be useful as what we should try to avoid is two or 
three sets of names being used by different workers throughout 
the world." 


From Gale Sphon (Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History): 
"Dr. Beeman's note in the last issue of the ON disturbed me a bit. 
I have always regarded the ON as a valid publication and it does 
meet the requirements set forth in the "International Code of 
Zoological Nomenclature adopted by the XV International Congress 
of Zoolegy.." Chapter IIL, Articles 7,8, and) 9 alll deal withsehne 
Criteria of Publication and the ON meets the standards of all 
three articles! If I had not felt this way I would never have sub- 
mitted my North American check-list for publication in the ON. I 
had originally planned on sending it to ‘Malacological Review' for 
publication, but realized that it is a relatively new journal and 
not too many of the opisthobranch people receive it, whereas the 
minority of the 'branchers do receive the ON. It is these people 
that I wanted to reach! Dr. Beeman's comment about a review board, 
though, does have merit and should be considered. I realize that 
this means a longer time before the article is published, but it 
might well be worth it."

OPISTHOBRANCH ‘NENSLETTER FEBRUARY, 1973 Votume V(2):11, 


READER FORUM - CONTINUED FROM PAGE 10, 


‘From Eveline Marcus: "The Reader Forum is great! Cephalaspidea, 
Anaspidea and Notaspidea should be preserved. 

To my view the position of the Akeridae in the Anaspidea is NOT 
acceptable, because they have a head shield and no tentacles or 
rhinophores. It is true, their gizzard is ‘anaspidean, but you 
don't see that from the outside. The shell is also much better 
developed than in any Anaspidean. A key that separates Cephalaspidea 
and Anaspidea (Ghiselin, 1965) has to use the head shield and 


rhinophores. 

I add a piece of a letter to A. Myra Keen in answer to one from 
her with the Ascoglossa question. -- Aplystopterus Delle Chiaje, 
1830, is a synonym of #lysta (Thiele:415). Aplystopsts Deshayes, 


1864, is really prior to Hermaetna, and Aplystopsts Bergh, 1893, 
for a subgenus of Aplysta with strongly, calcified shell (Thiele, 
p.396) is a synonym. Eales (1960) does not mention it, but Zilch 
(1959-60: 57) does. I do not think it is good to return to Aplyst- 
opsts for Hermaeina, though it is prior, because it gives a wrong 
concept of the Order, Anaspidea instead of Ascoglossa. Even 
though you are quite right as to Ihering's priority, the composi- 
tion of a Latin word, SACO, with a Greek word GLOSSA was used. It 
is called a "mule" in German, and the pure Greek Ascoglossa has 
the preference. I have used this term in my recent papers." 

"With Robert Burns' bubble shell I coincide. Mine is a‘Parva- 
plustrum-like tiny from southern Brazil, many specimens, but I must 
wait. I can only study it after my return from the USA and‘Europe." 


From Gordon Robildiard (3489 Kurtz St., San Diego, Ca 92110): 
"With regard to 'publication'in ON and the status of these publica- 
tions: Beeman brings up a very good point when he points out that 
quoteable material should not be printed in ON, but rather ina 
more widely distributed and easily accessible scientific journal. 
One of the major problems facing any scientist is keeping up with 
the rapidly expanding literature in the form of journals, etc. 

He does not have time to search every newsletter, etc. even if he 
knew theyexisted and where to obtain them. Information published 
in newsletters and other ‘unofficial’ publications such as the ON 
are essentially lost to all but a select few who are privy to the 
location of the newsletter. In fact, if any of ON's readers have 
seriously perused the semi-official literature published by the 
myriad federal, military, and state government agencies, they will 
have been amazed at the wealth of information on every conceivable 
subject including molluscs. This literature has wide if somewhat 
unrecognized distribution yet relatively few scientists, profession- 
als or amateurs, are aware that it even exists. fThus, an author 
does both himself and the scientific community a disservice by 
publishing useful data in a newsletter such as ON which reaches 
only a few people and probably fewer institution libraries. There 
is usually a temporal limitation in the case of publications such 
as ON. In the short-term, these newsletters have a high mortality 
simply because the editor becomes snowed under by the workload, 
loses interest, encounters financial limitations, and/or has a 
myriad of other problems; rarely do these newsletters evolve to 
ENeustatusmon  Ssclentutrc publicatvons.) in the ‘long-term, ‘citaq

tations to the ON made by present day authors will probably be 
frustrating to the n degree for some author 50 years in the 
future when he tries to obtain the reference only to learn of its 
restricted distribution. 

In the Editor's Comments to Beeman's statements, Steve Long 
makes several cogent points. He will exclude taxonomic decisions 
and new species descriptions which is, in my opinion, a very sen- 
sible approach. It is exactly this information that I am most 
against seeing published only in ON or similar publications. I 
agree that ON does and can serve as a useful forum for discussion 
of taxonomic problems and other aspects of opisthobranch biology. 
In fact, if more of this type of discussion took place before the 
final publication in one of several scientific journals, there 
might be a lot less confusion’than exists presently. 

I would hazard the somewhat unpleasant but realistic guess 
that most authors will be reluctant to publish range or ecologi- 
cal information in ON with a view to getting feedback prior to 
regular publication, simply for fear they will be 'scooped'." 


CURRENT EVENTS 


A meeting of San Francisco Bay area malacologists will be 
held at Stanford University on )Saturday, March 3rd; 19732 ythe 
meeting will be held in room 334 in the Old Geology Building 
starting at 10 A.M. and ending at 3 P.M. Interested persons 
should contact Dr. Eugene V. Coan, 891 San Jude Avenue, Palo Alito,

On January 23, 1973, a special reception was held at the Los 
Angeles County Museum of Natural History in the Ground Level Gal- 
lery, to show the work of Edwin Janss. This exhibit of beautiful 
large color photographic prints included about 15 prints of opis- 
thobranch species including a very good photograph of a group of 
an undescribed chromodorid from the Gulf of California. About 10 
of the West Coast 'branchers were in attendence including your 
editor who made the 400 mile round-trip in one evening. Some 
others in attendence were: J. Lance, G. Robilliard, C. Kitting, 
D. Cadien, G. Sphon, D. Mulliner & J. Morin. 


INFORMATION EXCHANGE 


From Dr. Gordon A. Robilliard: "I would like to put a request 
in the ON. I am going to expand the ‘predation on opisthobranchs' 
paper [Predators of Northeastern Pacific Opisthobranchs] as much 
aS possible to make it more complete. I would like to ask people 
who have published observations on predation on opisthobranchs or 
who have unpublished observations which I may quote with due ac- 
knowledgement to contact me. I have gone through most of the more 
recent literature, but there are undoubtedly reports in previous 
literature, journals which are not available to me, or observations 
made but not published." 


OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER | ‘ _FEBRUARY 1973 Votume V(2):13, 
INFORMATION EXCHANGE - CONTINUED FROM PAGE ll. 


Eugene V. Coan (891 San Jude Avenue, Palo Alto, California 
94306) is working on an ecological table for the genera of opis- 
thobranchs found on the Pacific Coast north of the Mexican bor- 


-- der to be included in Dr. A. Myra Keen's new edition of the key 


to the genera of northwest American mollusks. He has some ques- 
tions plus a need for general information on species. 
1. Does Phylltroe definitely occur in southern California? 
2. Need intertidal and subtidal records for all species. 
3. Undoubted new species should be included by increasing 
the number of species listed for each genera. 
4. Are there any 'doubtful' genera except Cabrilla? 
Please send information to Dr. Coan. 


From Mrs. Eveline Marcus (Via Gale Sphon): "As so often, I 
have a 'vague feeling of having read'something about a recent 
| find of Titiscanita..:.. On the other hand, I have really found a 
description of a second species of -Titiscanita, unearthed by Franc 
(1968, in Grassé). One of my dear Japanese friends asked another 
and so I got a Xerox of the following paper: Isao Taki, 1954, New 
SpeciosiOEMiareecaitayetap iis BUM Nat. SC. Mus )2)(2) -50—53,, 
pis. 6, 7. Taki, now dead, distinguished his from the previous 
species (see 1967), but the only solid difference is a ninute cor- 
ner on the marginal teeth. Tittscanta is in fact a prosobranch, 
but, on the other hand, the only nudibranch prosobranch, and so it 
often finds its place amoung the opisthobranchs. 

The East Pacific finds (1967) are Canal Zone and Puerto Lobos, 
Sonora. I did not keep any material to enable me to compare those 
with the Japanese 'new' species. Certainly one of the'branchers 
will have, or will find,more Titisecania, and then a detailed com- 
parison of the radula can decide the specific identity or differ- 
ence.’ 


‘From Gordon Robilliard: "I would like to ask the ON readers if 
any of them have information on published works concerning the 
opisthobranchs of the west coast of South America, especially Chile. 
I will soon be receiving a lot of animals from this area. I 
suspect, from a brief literature search, that there is relatively 
little ecological or taxonomic work in this area. Any leads on 
authors, papers, species from other areas which might occur here, 
etc. would be most useful and appreciated."

PERSONAL Notes 


From Thomas Cockburn (University of Victoria, Victoria, 
British Columbia, Canada): "I'm continuing my EM study of the 
nematocysts of Aeoltdta papillosa and Hermissenda crassicornis. 
I would appreciate any information Gn the general biology of 
these two animals that readers of the ON could supply. 


Mr. Wesley M. Farmer recently had a display of nudibranch 
models in the new Life Science Center of Arizona State Univer- 
sity. Some of the life-like models were enlarged, some were 
life-sized, and some were reduced in size. Mr. Farmer has 
produced hand-made plastic models of about fifty species of 
opisthobranchs. 


Mr. James Lance has recently returned from a ten-day 
collecting trip to Nyarit, Mexico, with a large number of 
opisthobranch species. 


Mr. Donald Cadien, Mr. Jay Shrake, and Mr. John Ljubenkov 
were in Pismo Beach on 25 February, 1973. They were presenting 
a program before a Sierra Club group near San Simeon, California. 


Mr. Chris Kitting spent about five days in San Luis Obispo, 
California, and Pismo Beach in the middle of February. 


Mr. Wayne Pickering, 1679 Neale Street, San Diego, Califor- 
nia, is a new subscriber to the ON. 


Dr. James Morin, Department of Biology, University of Cali- 
fornia, Los Angeles, California 90024, is a new subscriber to

Epitor’s Note 


The editor is attempting to complete his college degree 
during the next three months and issues of the ON may be 
very sporadic or even non-existent. Please do not be alarmed 
if you don't receive an issue before about June 15th. In all 
likelyhood issues will appear about the middle of each month 
but it is possible that one large issue in June will substi- 
tute for the April, May and June issues. 


The editor apologizes for an error in last month's issue 
of the ON. In a Reader Forum comment by Mr. Gale Sphon, the 
editor mistakenly substituted the word “minority” for the 
word "majority" 


CURRENT EVENTS :

travelling rather extensively. I left New Zealand in early 1971 
and have spent time in Fiji, India and Zanzibar - looking at coral 
reefs and other tropical environments - and collecting opistho- 
branchs. I then settled down in Bristol for a relatively long 
period ~ 9 months - and then moved to London. I have just taken 
a permanent post (2-4 years) here at the University of Dar es 
Salaam and am attempting to re-establish contacts with people I 
was corresponding with in Auckland."

From Mr. Gale Sphon (Los Angeles County Museum of Natrual His- 
tory, 900 Exposition Boulevard, Los Angeles, Ca 90007): "Recently 
the Los Angeles Museum of Natural History purchased Dick Roller's 
slide collection of Opisthobranchs. We now have about 1500 slides 
and we expect to continue enlarging this collection. If anyone is 
interested in exchanging slides with us, we would be more than 
happy to do so. We would partictlanly like to enlarge the selec- 
tion from the Indo-Pacific eae Austnalia. 

Mr. James R. Lance was in Pige-Reach April 14th and went on

toire de Biologie des Inyvertébrés Marins et Malacologie, 55, rue 
de Buffon, 75 - Paris CSaym France): "My interest in opisthobranchs 
started some years ago under-the direction of Dr. Tardy. I have 
made careful collections of intertidal nudibranchs on the southern 
coast of Brittany. The fauna is very rich there and includes a 
(probably) new species of Lamellidoris. I collected also at 
Roscoff and on the Atlantic coast of Spain and in the Mediterranean 
at Banyuls. This summer I am planriing to collect during 2 months 
in Senegal. I am now trying to get familiar with the anatomy of 
the species and Dr. Tardy and I are planning to dig into the biol- 
ogy of some tittoral species more seriously. I also study the 
systematics of deep-water Opisthobranchs and I am presently work- 
ing on the material (which includes“ Lamellariacea) collected in 
1971 around the Azores down to 300@:m. I have no Jeeupiors| published 
as yet but several works are now near completion.' 


From Steven J. Long: "You ee NOES by the presence of this 
issue of the OPISTHOBRANCH “NEWSLETTER ‘that I have completed my 
college and.am back to work. I Hope to devote considerable time 
to gathering a very complete set of opisthobranch citations and 
other information for the ON." 


During the early part of April the editor was fortunate to 
spend an afternoon with Drs. J.B. Burch and C.M. Patterson at the 
Museum of Zoology of The University of Michigan. Dr. J.B. Burch 
will be spending most of the summer in Africa doing research. 


From Dr. Henry D. Russell: "Have had a busy winter at the New 
England Aquarium, Museum of Comparative Zoology at Harvard, and 
Rovert S. Hale Camping Reservation for ecology, outdoor teaching,

From Dr. T.E. Thompson (Department of Zoology, University of 
Bristol, Woodland Road, Bristol, BS8 1UG, England): "I certainly 
strongly support Dr. Edmunds' opinion that Dr. Lemche is right in 
rejecting the use of the terms Anaspidea, Cephalaspidea and Nota- 
spidea for any groups of Opisthobranchia. As Dr. Edmunds reminds 
your readers, classification should be designed for the general 
zoologist, not for the specialist. 

You are kind enough to ask about my monograph on the British 
Opisthobranchia. Progress has been good, thanks to generous sup- 
port from the Science Research Council, the Royal Society and the 
University of Bristol. Volume I has now been accepted for publi- 
cation by the Ray Society. This volume is complete and contains 
a general account of the Opisthobranchia of the world's seas, to- 
gether with a sustematic treatment of the British Bullomorpha, 
Aplysiomorpha, Acochlidiacea, Pleurobranchomorpha and Sacoglossa. 
I do not know precisely when this will be on the bookstalls. Vol- 
ume II will deal solely with the British Nudibranchia and this 
work is going well. In this connexion I have just spent some time 
examining comparative material at the ecological laboratory on the 
island of Ischia near Naples. The brilliant artist, Miss I. 
Richter of Budapest, will be coming to work with me during 1974 
and I am fortunate enough to have another talented illustrator on 
a full-time basis, Mr. Gregory Brown. It is a big operation and 
I shall be glad to finish it so that I can proceed with my work 
on mammalian and other spermatozoa, My work on Australian opistho- 
branchs is now almost complete, with my final paper, on the dorid 
nudibranchs, almost off my hands, while my colleague Alan Bebbing- 
ton is finishing his investigation of the aplysiids obtained dur- 
ing my 1968 visit to that interesting country." 


From Robert Burn: "Some interesting local specimens have 
turned up in eastern Victoria and I have heard of some very deep- 
water specimens from eastern Tasmania, but it may be some time be- 
fore these filter through to me, 

I have two papers in press for this year and have submitted 
comments upon Lemche's Aglaja application, and another manuscript 
on two new records for Australia to the VELIGER. There are plans 
also to compile some notes on taxonomic problems for five or six 
northern and eastern Pacific species, also for the VELIGER. Re- 
search time has been taken up mainly with studies of Australasian 
bubble-shells of the smaller species, and some interesting details 
are building up. The results of about 20 species, hopefully, will 
be published in the 1974 JOURNAL OF THE MALACOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF 
AUSTRALIA. 

Perhaps the best news is that I am to 'do' the opisthobranchs 
for the Handbook of the Flora and Fauna of South Australia series. 
This entails brief descriptions, discussion, references and figures 
of every species from the western part of the southern Australian 
coastline, and includes pyramidellids, pteropods and all. As yet 
I have no real idea of the number of species involved, but presum- 
ably the number is in excess of 200 species."

OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER JUNE, 1973 VOLUME VG, 5,6) :24, 


From Dr. Henning Lemche: "From March 27. to April 1. I paid a 
visit to the Trondheim biological station in Norway for studying 
the opisthobranchs of the Trondheim fiord. To my surprise, the 
nudibranch fauna was sparse, probably because hydroids were rare 
in spite of the many deep coral reefs (100-300m dpeth) in the re- 
gion. On the other hand, I obtained some most interesting things, 
a.o. the Doto crassitcornis Sars which proved to be a good species. 
Some strong tidal current localities but no surf-exposed ones are 
present in the area in accessible places, which also keeps down 
the number of species to be found.t#, The visit resulted also in the 
find of a peculiar turbellarian _€2¥ parasite in Philine quadrata 
now to be further investigated. “ 

This summer, I am attending the; Boulder Congress in the beginn- 
ing of August, and from mid- -August:, to mid-September I am to visit 
Friday Harbor to have a look-on-the opisthobranchs, especially the 
Dendronotids, for later comparison with the less well casonenee ay 
studied Northernmost Atlantic and Arctic ones." 


Dr. K. Baba has been spending most of his time recently with 
non-opisthobranch research but hopes to get back to the OEE 
branchs now that the other project is finished. 


From Dr. Antonio J. Ferreira: "The El Salvador trip was very 
interesting from many points of view but not from that of collected 
opisthobranchs. I hit every beach from San Jose, Guatemala to the 
Gulf of Fonseca. It is alla long stretch of sandy beach, all 
from Tehuantepec, in Mexico, to the Gulf of Fonseca where, inciden- 
tally the water is extremely murky and the bottom mostly mud. 

At Los Cobanos found a few of our friends, but no new. species. 
Unless, those white beasts I found turn out to be other than 
Dolabritfera dolabrifera (D. ntcaraguana??). In time, I may be able 
to tell you more about it." — : ce,

From Gale Sphon, Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, 
900 Exposition Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90007: "Recently 
the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History purchased a large 
portion of Richard Roller's library. As was expected, we had a 
few of the items and our librarian has agreed to let me place the 
duplicates on sale. Especially since this is one way to get the 
material into the hands of those who will be using it.’ What monies 
are realized from the sale will be used to buy additional Opistho- 
branch papers. The material listed will be sold on a first come, 
first served basis. Checks should be made out to, “LOS Gd a 
County Museum of Natural History Foundation'".

EDITOR'S NOTE 


More and more researchers are taking color slides (photographic 
transparencies) of opisthobranch species for study. Many exchanges 
are taking place so that other researchers can use the slides to 
their benefit. I would hope that one basic principle would be 
observed by all slide recipients = NEVER DUPLICATE OR PUBLISH A 
SLIDE WITHOUT THE ORIGINAL PHOTOGRAPHER'S PERMISSION! ! 


Originals or copies of the following papers are needed by the

Persons interested in sell-

of titles and prices to the 
editor. Every effort will be 
made to list these items in the 
ON as a reader service. - SJL 


This issue of the ON is a 
little short of news and Personal 
Notes as it falls only about two 
weeks after the last issue. I 
hope that some of our readers 
will be sending comments in the 
near future. - SJL 


I am trying this two-column 
format to see how much easier 
it is to read. Any reader 
comments will be appreciated. 

I have considered going to a 
5-1/2" x 8-1/2" page format, 
folded and saddle-stapled, for 
the next volume but I am trying 
to avoid changing the size of 

the ON again. I know the problem 
of a journal run with two or — 
three sizes. - SJL

CURRENT EVENTS 

The Sixth Annual Meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists was 
held at Asilomar State Beach from July 11-14, 1973. Several opistho= 
branch papers were presented and the titles appear below. 


KEEN, A. MY¥RA. Notes on the taxonomy of the Sacoglossa (Opisthobranch, 
Gastropoda). [This paper presented several important changes in tax- 
onomy and will be printed as a list in an upcoming issue of VELIGER] 

ROBILLIARD, GORDON A. Collection and Presentation of Ecological Data on 
Opisthobranchs. This paper includes work by J. SHERMAN BLEAKNEY. 

CRANE, SANDRA. Vital Stains: A Technique for Marking Nudibranchs. [Paper 
read by Gordon Robilliard] 

GREENE, RICHARD. Determination of photosynthetic function in algal and 
chloroplast symbionts in Opisthobranchs. [Paper read by David Mulliner] 

STEPHENS, LINDA. A technique for rearing Opisthobranch larvae. 

BRIDGES, CELIA. Larval development and life history of Phyllaplysta tay- 
tort. 

FARMER, WES. The making of a Nudibranch. 

LONG, STEVEN. Accumulation and dissemination of information. 


Abstracts for the papers should appear in the next issue of the ECHO, 
probably around the first of the year, The text for the technique papers 
will appear in the ON as they reach the editor. Other persons attending 
the conference included Virginia Waters, Gary McDonald, Chris Kitting, 
and Jim Carlton. 


The Department of Geology, School of Earth Sciences, Stanford Univer- 
sity, has opened "The Myra Keen Exhibit of Recent & Fossil Shells." The 
exhibit will be open to individuals or groups, from both within and out- 
side the University, upon arrangement with the Department of Geology Of- 
fice (phone 321-2300, ext. 2537). -For the first time since Dr. Keen's 
retirement the collection has been made more available for scientific 
research. 


From Eugene Coan and A. Myra Keen:"It is now time to prepare a paper 
listing the corrections, additions, and changes that have come to light 
since the second edition of 'Sea Shells of Tropical West America." We 
would appreciate knowing about (1) errors, including typographical, in 
the text, (2) species which were inadvertently left out, (3) new informa- 
tion on synonymy, distribution, ranking or arrangement, (4) new or missed 
bibliographic items. Please submit these data to Eugene Coan, 891 San 
Jude Ave., Palo Alto, California 94306, U.S.A. within three months." 


Required six-months' notice is given of the possible use of plenary 
powers by the ICZN in connection with the following names listed by case 
number. 


2007. Type-species for Wipponaphera Habe, 1961 (Gastropoda) 
2021. Type-species for Tutufa Jousseaume, 1881 (Gastropoda) 


Comments should be sent in duplicate, citing case number, to the Sec- 
retary, International Commission on Zoological Nomenclature, c/o British 
Museum (Natural History), Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, England. Those 
received early enough will be published in the Bulletin of Zoological 
Nomenclature. 


For the person who has "everything." Here are conversation pieces 
hand-crafted by Wesley Farmer. Resin embedments of hand-crafted sea slugs; 
50 species now available. Made by order only. Contact Wesword Company.

LA CONCHIGLIA, international monthly shell magazine, has been issued in 
Rome since 1969. Each issue contains many photographs, color and 
black and white, illustrating marine shells of the world's seas. 
Articles on marine life and fossil shells provide interest for both 
professional and amateur malacologists. Backnumbers are stil avail- 
able. The subscription rate is $8.50 per year, surface mail. Air 
Mailing costs $3.00 more for U.S. For subscription write to O.N. 


PersonaL Notes 


George P. Kanakoff, Curator of Invertebrate Paleontology, Emeritus, 
Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History, died on March 12, 1973. 
George Kanakoff's contributions to malacology and other fields will be 
sorely missed. 


Eveline Marcus is continuing her trip and was in England during part 
of July. 


From Dr. Kikutar6 Baba: "My present subject is to revise the saco- 
glossan species Lobiger sagamtensts Baba, 1949 from Sagami Bay, Japan. 
I had chances to obtain additional specimens of the species from the 
type locality as well as from some other stations of Southern Japan. 
That species will ultimately be referred to Lobitger souverbtt Fischer, 
1856 known originally from the West Indies, as was already suggested 
privately to me by Mr. G.G. Sphon. I want to make reports on the sub- 
ject both in Japanese and in English, with some photographs or ink draw- 
ings. 


Hans Bertsch is beginning work on the Chromodorid nudibranch group 
for his doctoral thesis at the University of California, Berkeley. He 
would greatly appreciate corresponding with people who have specimens 
and photographs of this group. He is using scanning electron microscopy 
to study radular differences, and is investigating evolutionary and tax- 
onomic relationships, anatomy, zoogeography, and ecology. He would like 
to obtain informational and specimen exchanges of these animals. Please 
write him at: Department of Zoology, University of California, Berkeley, 
California, 94720.

PREPARING Vinyt ACETATE MODELS oF OPISTHOBRANCH ALIMENTARY TRACTS. 
by 
Steven J. Long 


Fankboner (1967) reported a technique for preparing vinyl acetate mo- 
dels of prosobranch mollusc alimentary tracts. Fankboner's method works 
well for prosobranchs and pelecypods, and provides a complete model of the 
molluscan digestive system. The method is presented here with additional 
information for opisthobranchs. I found that most dorid opisthobranchs 
over 10 mm long may be injected easily, but eolid opisthobranchs, with 
their softer bodies, were much more difficult to inject. The necessary 
equipment includes a hypodermic syringe, a hypodermic needle, vinyl ace- 
tate, acetone, and household bleach. Magnesium chloride or ather anesthe- 
tics may be used to prepare some species for injection. 


Liquid vinyl acetate is sold in several colors by Ward's Biological 
Supply and other biological supply houses. I used yellow, but red and 
blue are also available. Vinyl acetate penetrates small passages much 
better than latex or other casting materials (see Fankboner). 


The hypodermic syringe may be either glass or plastic. Fankboner men 
tions having trouble with the action of plastic syringes and with the dis- 
solving action of the vinyl acetate on some of the syringe parts; however, 
I had no trouble with the "Monoject" brand plastic types available to me 
locally. The needle size should be about number 22 gauge, used on a 5 ml 
syringe. . For animals larger than 100 mm I use a 50 ml hypodermic and a 
large needle, about number 16 gauge. For the very small 10 mm animals, I 
use a 1 ml tuberculin syringe and a number 26 gauge needle. The needle 
should be ground smooth at the tip with the point entirely removed, using 
emery paper. 


I. used acetone as a solvent for cleaning the hypodermic syringes and 
needles, with good results, Fankboner also lists diethyl phthalate as a 
solvent. Acetone can be purchased at almost any paint store and is rea- 
sonably priced. I use household bleach sold under the trade names "Purex" 
and "Chlorox" on most of my animals, while Fankboner recommends sodium hy~ 
droxide. Either may be used to digest away the tissue from the vinyl 
acetate model. 


Specimens should be starved before preparation, to rid the animal's 
digestive tract of any food which may appear as artifacts in the prepara~ 
tion. The specimens to be injected may be completely anesthetized, re~ 
cently dead, or previously frozen. The object is to have the animal immo- 
bile and in a naturally expanded condition. Magnesium chloride worked 
well with most of the live dorids I used. Specimens which die naturally 
in an aquarium also may be used if they have not started to deteriorate. 
To freeze a specimen for injection involves cooling the animal in a bowl 
of seawater until the animal will no longer respond to stimulus and then 
freezing the specimen. These specimens must be thawed completely before 
they are injected, Fankboner suggests actually pinning the animal down to 
allow free use of both hands for the injection. I use a wax block and 
pins when the animals are large enough to pin. 


The hypodermic syringe is filled with vinyl acetate and immediately 
placed in a beaker of acetone, with the needle immersed, to prevent harden- 
ing of the vinyl acetate. The syringe should be kept in the beaker at all 
times when not actively doing the injection. The syringe is removed from 
the beaker and the tip of the needle is inserted gently into the mouth of 
the specimen as far as it wili go without resistance. It is very impor~ 
tant to have the needle tip smooth and to be very careful with the inser- 
tion to prevent damage to the alimentary canal.

VINYL ACETATE INJECTION TECHNIQUE ~- CONTINUED 

As soon as the needle has been inserted, the fluid must be injected 
amoothly and without hesitation until a slight bick-pressure on the plun-~ 
ger is felt. When the back pressure is felt, the injection should be 
stopped immediately, to prevent bursting tissues. If the tissues are 
damaged, the vinyl acetate will spread out into other parts of the body 
and ruin the model. The syringe should be removed and immediately washed 
with acetone, to prevent the vinyl acetate from hardening in the needle 
and syringe. 


Before the tissue digestion is started, the' vinyl acetate should be 
allowed to harden for several minutes. Fankboner suggests three to six 
hours, but twenty minutes should be adequate for most small specimens. 
After about twenty minutes, the specimen is placed in a beaker of bleach. 
and allowed to decompose. In many cases, the mantle of dorids can be 
trimmed away with scissors to reduce the time necessary for decomposition. 
The model should be placed in fresh bleach each day, until all ‘of the tis- 
suc is digested away. This will probably take at least two full days. 


When the model is entirely clean it should be rinsed in distilled wa- 
ter and placed in a bottle of distilled water for storage and display. 
Although the model is fragile, this method produces a very accuratd like- 
ness of the specimen's alimentary tract. With practice, the complete in- 
side model, including the alimentary canal and digestive diverticula, can 
be obtained. The model will show all of the parts in their normal situa- 
tion including all connections, ‘ 


I gratefully acknowledge the helpful suggestions given to me by Dr. 
Peter V. Fankboner of the Department of Zoology, University of Victoria, 
Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. I also thank my wife, Karen, for 
help with the preparation of this note. Drs. Fred L. Clogston and Tracy 
Call of the Department of Biology, California State Polytechnic University, 
re Luis Obispo, California, read the manuscript and offered useful suges= 
tions.

PREPARING VINYL ACETATE MODELS OF OPISTHOBRANCH ALIMENTARY TRACTS. 


by 


Steven J. Long 


Excellent inside models of many dorid and eolid opisthobranch 
alimentary tracts may be prepared using the vinyl acetate injec- 
tion technique. Phe eaucemene necessary is a hypodermic syringe, 
a hypodermic needle, acetone, and household bleach. Magnesium 
chloride (Mger) or another anesthetic may also be useful. 

Dorids have firmer bodies than eolids and are easier to in- 
ject. The anesthetized or freshly killed specimen is injected via 
the mouth using vinyl acetate in a glass or plastic hypodermic 
syringe witn the needle point ground smooth. The vinyl acetate 
is allowed to harden for at least twenty minutes before placing 
the animal in household bleach to digest all tissues surrounding 


the vinyl acetate model. Acetone is used to clean the equipment. 


When the model is free of all tissues it is rinsed with water 
and placed in a vial of distilled water for viewing. The result- 
ing model should be a detailed inside mould of the specimen's di- 


gestive tract from the mouth, through the digestive area and diver- 


ticula, to the anus.

PREPARATION OF OPISTHOBRANCHS FOR SCIENTIFIC PURPOSES. by Eveline 
Marcus. 


Collection and preparation of specimens of "nudibranchs" for scien- 
tific purposes requires much careful attention to detail. 

The animals should first be observed alive. Notes on their colors, 
sketches and drawings with colored pencils, and color slides are of great 
help in preparing for later description. Measurements should be made of: 
length, -breadth, and height of the body; length of the tentacles, rhino- 
phoreés.,. and cerata. The number of leaves or foliations in the aco 
should be counted and the shape of the foot corners, round or tentacle- .. 
Wks, described. 

For preservation, nudibranchs may be relaxed in seawater by adding 
an equal quantity of tap water with 7% MgCl Another good and easy 
method for relaxing is to put some menthol @rystals on the surface of 
the small dish containing the animals. The time necessary for complete 
relaxation varies from 15 minutes for tiny specimens to many hours for 
large Aplysia. If the time is too long, the animals will disintegrate. 

If the time is too short, animals will contract when the preservative is 
added. The first two to three specimens of a species should be presered 
in 80% alcohol (preferably ethanol) which preserves calcareous spicules 
if present. For finer anatomical studies, 10% formalin, Bouin's, or 
Susa solution, or others, are better than alcohol, but the calcareous 
elements, and the shell of ‘shelled opisthobranchs are decalcified. 

‘ In the Eolidacea, the position of the anal opening serves to dis- 
tinguish bétween suborders.. For a full description of a species of ‘the 
Eolidacea the distribution of their appendages or cerata is necessary. 

With several specimens available, one should be "sacrificed" for 
an exact study of the distribution of the cerata. There are several 
types of distribution. In Sacoglossa, the cerata are outgrowths of two 
longitudinal liver branches, and stand in a row on each side, the largest 
near the middle of the back, the smaller ones and buds near the margin. 

In the Eolidacea, the cerata are arranged along the sides, either ina 
broad row or in groups, leaving the middle of the back free. They overlie 
the ramifications of the iiver branches of which there are two in front 

of the stomach and one behind. The groups of cerata are either single 
transverse rows, or comb-like, or horseshoe-shaped. 

For the detailed analysis of position, it is often necessary to 
pluck off the cerata to see their insertion. The insertions are clearer 
if the animal is stained with carmin (see footnote), Borax, or Paracarmin. 
After staining, the excess of dye is removed in acid alcohol, 1% HCl in 
70% ‘alcohol, until the color of the object ais dight) pinks sh oftenmde 
not have the patience to wait til it is really light enough and later 
regret it when I cannot see all details I need. The specimen is then 
placed in 70% alcohol, and the distribution of cerata, position of anal 
and genital openings are registered and sketched. If necessary, cerata 
can be plucked off to obtain a clearer view of the intestinal diverticula. 

The remainder of the specimen is still good for a preparation of 
jaw*plates and radula. The head in small specimens or the buccal-mass-

to carefully control every step in unfolding the radula, to put the cover 
slip on under the microscope, and to make a good drawing before sealing, 
as a small radula is apt to escape at the last moment. 

From the 70% alcohol, the object can be transferred to 80%, 90%,and 
100% alcohol, and then to an intermedium. I prefer oil of cloves, but « 
xylol or creosote or any more modern intermedium will do. The object can ' 
remain for weeks or more, and from there go to Canada Balsam, Caedax, or 
the like, or be embedded in way for serial sections. Before embedding, 
further observation of the transparent object may reveal still other: de- 
tamlsmon! thes digestive tract, He Le organ, ovotestis, glands, and other 
internal organs. 

. “A dissection of specimens preserved in 70% alcohol or in oil of 
cloves. with.fine instruments under the dissecting microscope is often 
useful. Every step should be sketched, and the isolated parts observed 
under a cover slip. The male organ, the buccal apparatus, the gizzard, 
and the gizzard plates (in cephalaspideans and anaspideans) are often 
necessary elements in a taxonomic description. 

As a control and to support the observations made of the total 
animal, reconstruction of the serial sections is often indispensable, 
especially for the complicated reproductive ducts. But if you have come 
so far, you can already consider yourself a specialist.

ECOLOGY AND LARVAL DEVELOPMENT OF PHYLLAPLYSIA TAYLORI DALL. by 
Cecilia B. Bridges. 


Phyllaplysta taylort Dall, is a small green patterned opisthobranch 
'which lives on blades of Zostera martina, the common eelgrass occurring 
along shores of eastern Pacific estuaries. Studies of larval development 
and adult ecology indicate that genetically isolated populations may 
existwithin relatively ‘short distances. The egg mass is a tightly packed 
nidosome consisting of double layered parallel rows of the egg string. 
Each capsule contains a single ovum and a single smaller refractile 

sphere which is probably a nutritional body. Prior to loss of the velum 
this is broken down by ciliary action and the particles ingested. morph- 
ology of development is described in detail. Development is direct and 
the encapsulated period approximately 30 days at 17.5°C. Metamorphosis 
commences with resorption of the velar lobes. Settlement immediately fol- 
lows hatching and the veliconch takes up a crawling existence feeding on 
the diatom layer covering the egg mass and Zostera. Settlement studies 
show no preference for eelgrass substrate as long as the diatom layer is 
present. Specificity for this substrate is explained by the nature of 
direct development and by the observed absence of this layer on macro- 
algae. After settlement growth of the shell continues to form a visor- 
like hood up to four times the size of the larval shell. Fate of the 
shell has not been determined, but past reports are questioned. Studies 
of larval development as a function of temperature show lower temperatures 
resulting in an increase in hours required to reach stages of development. 
Effect of temperature on developmental time was greater with progressive 
developmental stages. The development and settlement of P. taylori is 

the first record of metamorphosis and direct development in the anaspid- 
eans. Ecological data indicate a complex interrelationship existing 
among P. taylort, Z. marina and the diatom cover. A summary of opistho- 
branch developmental literature is updated and aspects of direct develop- 
ment are discussed.

A TECHNIQUE FOR REARING OPISTHOBRANCH LARVAE. by Linda L. Stephens 
and J.E. Blankenship. 


’ A closed seawater culturing system which supports the growth of 
veliger larvae of Aplysta caltforntca has been developed. The system is 
composed of three interconnected aquarium units through which artificial 
seawater is continually circulating. An 80-gallon tank with circulating 
punp and internal filtering serves as central reservoir for adult animals 
and maintains a temperature of 58-62°F. A 60-gallon tank maintains a 
variety of seaweeds, their associated substrates, and invertebrates, all 
representing possible substrates for inducing veliger metamorphosis. Its 
autotrophic nature reduces eutrophying enrichment to the total system. 
The third part of the system holds eggs and larvae and is composed of 
ten 3.l-gallon plexiglas aquaria. Water lifted from the reservoir is 
prefiltered, U.V. sterilized, filtered through two cartridges of 15 and 
1-3 micron porosities and pumped into the bottom of each of the individ- 
ual working tanks. Each small tank has its own variable aeration and 
supplementary cooling coil. A coarse mesh plastic screen lies near the 
slanted bottom of each tank and serves to support added seaweed and al- 
low separation from debris on the bottom. Each tank also has a variable 
height standpipe with a 37 micron nylon mesh filter through which water 
exits but veliger larvae are retained. Water flows through each tank at 
a rate of 3-10 ml/minute and is collected in a manifold containing a fil- 
ter bed of cracked oyster shell and charcoal and eventually returns to 
the reservoir. The small tanks remain relatively free of bacterial and 
predator contamination. A photoperiod of 12 hours light is employed. 
Supplementary food containing various proportions of Cyclotella nana, 
Tsochrysts galbana, Monochrysts luthert, and Skeletonema costatum is 
cultured separately in enriched media. With densities of 200 algal cells/ 
larva/day, we have observed a doubling of length of larvae held in this 
system for three weeks. (Supported by USPHS grant NS09652, and a grant

Determination of Photosynthetic Function in Algal and Chloroplast 
Symbionts in Opisthobranchs. by Richard W. Greene. 


The presence of photosynthetic symbionts in the tissues of inver- 
tebrates is a rather common phenomenon in nature. One finds these sym- 
bionts in protozoa, sponges, coelenterates, flatworms and even in mol- 
luses. Photosynthetic symbionts among the molluscs are apparently limi- 
téd to the classes Pelecypoda and Gastropoda. The discussion here will 
be limited to the latter group, though the techniques described here are 
applicable to any algal symbiosis. 

- Among. the opisthobranch. gastropods, there are two general types of 
photosynthetic symbionts which might be encountered. . Zooxanthellae, |... 
which are endosymbiotic dinoflagellates, are yellow-brown unicellular 
algée which occur in the cells of many marine invertebrates. Among the 
opisthobranchs, the occurrence of zooxanthellae is limited to those spe- 
cies which feed on other organisms which already contain the algal cells 
in their tissues. Thus, one finds zooxanthellae primarily in the tis- 
sues of opisthobranchs which feed on reef corals and other algae-contain- 
ing .coelenterates. These symbionts, when present, would normally impart 
a yellow-brown coloration to the host animal. 

The other general type of photosynthetic symbiont found in tissues 
of opisthobranchs is the algal chloroplast. This is a rather specialized 
symbiosis and, fittingly, is limited to a rather specialized group of 
opisthobranchs, the order Sacoglossa. The chloroplasts are derived from 
the algae upon which the animals feed. Since most of the algae fed upon 
are green, the chloroplasts impart a green color to those animals contain- 
ing them. It must be kept in mind, however, that chloroplasts from both 
red and brown algae have also been described from sacoglossans so that 
animals encountered in the field may appear other than green. 

Once an animal is found which is suspected of containing photosyn- 
thetic symbionts, the investigator is charged with the task of demonstra- 
ting whether the symbionts are: a) simply "passing through"; b) being in- 
gested and digested; or, c) being ingested and then remaining for some 
period as functional entities. 

One might answer the first question by simply starving the animal 
to determine whether or not the algal coloration is persistent. Obvious- 
ly, if the putative symbionts are merely in transit through the animal, 
they are not to be classed as symbionts. If they are not merely passing 
through, then one must determine whether or not they retain photosynthe- 
tic) funceion,. 

First, it must be remembered that any demonstration of photosynthe- 
tic ability must be supplied with data from treatments in both light and 
dark conditions. This is the only way that the symbionts can be shown 
to be light-dependent. This slide shows the general overall reaction 
for the photosynthetic process and indicates where it is possible to 
monitor the reaction with relative ease. Beginning with the left side 
of the equation, it is seen that carbon dioxide is used up by photosyn- 
thesis. Thus, if one can measure loss of carbon dioxide from a reaction 
vessel and show that it is a light-requiring reaction can be shown respon- 
sible for either oxygen production or carbohydrate production, then photo- 
synthesis is the natural explanation. 

An easy method exists for following carbon dioxide which gives a 
fair approximation when no other methods are available for photosynthetic

GREENE TECHNIQUE PAPER CONTINUED: 


assays. As carbon dioxide is either removed from, or added to water, it 
changes the hydrogen ion concentration (or pH) of the water. Thus, more 
carbon dioxide in sokution drives the pH to lower values, while removal 
drives the pH to higher values. This slide shows how data might look if 
pH was monitored in a small container in which an animal was being main- 
tained. Part "A" of the curve shows the animal respiring in the dark. 

It produces carbon dioxide, and the pH drops at a relatively steady rate. 
Once a baseline for respiration is established, the lights are turned on. 
If photosynthetic symbionts are present, they will begin to take up car- 
bon dioxide and the slope of the line should become less steep as in "C", 
or might even reverse its slope as in "D" indicating that the symbionts 
were taking up more carbon dioxide than the animal was producing. If no 
photosynthesis was occurring in the light, line "A" would simply continue 
EOmpomnita i Bei 

The pH of the sea water may be monitored either by indicator dyes 
or, more satisfactory, by a pH meter. It must be understood that the 
pH method gives only an approximation of photosynthesis and respiration 
since sea water has considerable buffer capacity to resist change in pH. 
This makes it necessary to use small volumes of water in the test cham- 
ber and to run the experiment for about 2 hours. These two conditions 
will help to magnify any changes occorring in the experimental vessel. 

The determination of oxygen production as a light-dependent reac- 
tion is a little more difficult. Two general techniques are available 
for monitoring changes in dissolved oxygen in water: the Winkler titra- 
metric method which is described in most any general manual on water an- 
alysis; and far simpler but more expensive, the direct-reading oxygen 
electrode. Whichever method is chosen to measure oxygen concentration, 
the data look identical to those just shown for carbon dioxide uptake. 
The slope of the line at "A" reflects oxygen uptake in the dark by the 
respiring animal. When the lights are turned on, any photosynthetic 
activity by symbionts should be reflected in an upward change in slope 
of the data line. Thus, "C" and "D" indicate no light-dependent oxygen 
production. The chloroplast symbionts in Placobranchus, a sacoglossan 
from Hawaii, not only produce more oxygen than the animal can consume 
over a 24 hour period, but can super-saturate the water in a closed ves- 
sel with oxygen! 

The best and most sensitive assay for photosynthetic function in- 
volves the use of the radioisotope, carbon-14. The slide shows where 
carbon-14 can be fed into the system as labeled carbon dioxide and then 
retrieved and detected as labeled reduced carbon compounds following 
photosynthesis. A flow diagram of this technique is shown on the next 
slide. Animals containing supposed symbionts are incubated in Millipore- 
filtered sea water in separate vessels in light and dark. Sodium-!*c- 
bicarbonate is added to both the light and dark vessel at an initial 
specific activity of about 50 microcuries per milliliter. The incuba- 
tion period should run from one to two and a half hours. At the end of 
this time, the animals in each vessel are rinsed with fresh, non-radio- 
active sea water to remove excess label. 

Next, the whole animals are homogenized in hot alcohol to extract 
the photosynthetic products. Insoluble animal material is centrifuged 
out of solution and an aliquot of the extract is placed on a steel plan- 
chet. fhevextract) is jacidrfied with a’ drop of hydrochloric acid to 
drive off unbound carbon-14. The acid-stable sample should then be 
dried and assayed for radioactivity using a Geiger tube and scaler. 
Radioactivity from light-treated animals should always be compared to

GREENE TECHNIQUE PAPER CONTINUED: 


extracts from dark-treated specimens incubated with isotope for an equi- 
valent time. By knowing the total volume of the extract, the total car- 
bon-14 activity fixed into soluble materials may be calculated. Methods 
are available for determining radioactivity in the insoluble fraction as 
well, but for the task at hand, it isn't necessary. When comparing rad- 
ioactivity in different samples, it is customary to relate the count data 
to some parameter of the tissue being studied. Thus, the data might be 
reported as counts per minute. per milligram protein per hour, or per 
milligram chlorophyll per hour. By using some standard such as those 
above, data from different samples become more comparable. 

This slide shows the three possible combinations of data which 
might be obtained using this procedure. In experiment I, photosynthesis 
is obviously »oceurring. The dark control showed negligivle uptake of 
carbon-14, while fixation occurred at a high rate in the light. In ex= _ 
periment II, there is no photosynthesis. Light-treated specimens incor- 
porated no more radioactivity than the dark controls. Finally, experi- 
ment III shows that things can go wrong éven in the best-designed study. 
The dark control should never have significantly more radioactivity than 
the light-treated specimens. If acidifying the dark extract once again 
doesn't lower the activity to a more manageable value, and the samples 
have not been mislabeled, then the experiment must simply be done again.

Vital Stains: A Marking Technique for Nudibranchs. by Sandra Crane. 


Marking, for the purpose of identifying individuals or groups of 
animals is a valuable tool for population studies. To be useful the 
marking must be long lasting, readily visible, and not injure or obstruct 
the movements of the animal. Since nudibranchs have a delicate mantle 
and no shell, it is impossible to mark them by attaching labels. Instead, 
vital stains may be used. Stock solutions of a number of these: Nile 
Blue Sulfate, Methylene Blue, Trypan Blue, Janus Green and Neutral Red, 
were tested on the nudibranch Archtdoris montereyensis. Only Neutral Red 
was,successful. This stain, when applied to an Archtdorts montereyensts 
~tn.situ-with a "Q tip" penetrated the mucous covering leaving a red patch 
on the mantle. Marks could be placed on different parts of the nudi- 
branch in order to distinguish one individual from the other. (SLIDE) 
Experiments Testing the Use of Archtdorts montereyensts Stained With Neu- 
tral Red. why" 

— oOo test the durability of: the stain and it's effects on the nudi- 
branchs, twenty Arehtdorts montereyensts were brought into the laboratory 
and kept in an aquarium. Ten of these were stained in various positions 
with Neutral Red. The animals retained their markings for as long as 
four months with no apparent side effects. The markings were still dis- 
tinguishable when the animals died (from causes unrelated to staining) 
and it is possible the stain would be effective for longer periods. 

In the field, nine Arehtdorts montereyensts were stained and mea- 
suxed at two week intervals in a preliminary study to determine their 
growth rates. None of the marked animals remained over two and a half 
months, but since they disappeared at the same time as unmarked nudi- 
branchs of the same size, it does not appear that the marking caused 
their disappearance. 

During a study of Archtdorts montereyensits I found the staining 
technique very effective for short therm experiments performed in the | 
field. In one experiment, a small number of A. montereyensis were stain- 
ed in different spots so they could be individually recognized. Once 
distinguisable as individuals their behaviour, movements and feeding 
patterns could be studied closely. Another experiment required that I 
have two clearly distinguishable groups, and because it was an open field 
situation, I also had to be able to recognize if any immigration was 
taking place. Staining all my test animals, half with a mark on their 
right side, half on the left, solved this problem. The primary advan- 
tage of this technique is that it could be applied in a field situation 
when the nudibranchs were exposed by low tides, without removing the 
animal from the substrate or disturbing it in any way. 

Problems Encountered Using This Technique. 

My major problem was in finding a stain which was not rejected by 
the mucous covering of Arehtdorts montereyensts. If further stains had 
been tested it is possible others could have been used, and a number of 
colours would greatly expand the combinations with which individuals 
could be marked. I found that if the nudibranch was very wet it had to 
be blotted first, or the stain could not be confined to one area. Also, 
if the staining solution of Neutral Red was too strong it appeared to in- 
jure the nudibranch, causing. the mantle to contract where it was applied... 
Staining was not tried on other species of nudibranchs, but probably 
could be applied to any of the light coloured dorids and aeolids.

Collection, Organization, and Presentation of Ecological Data on 
Opisthobranchs. by Gordon A. Robilliard. 


Most serious shell collectors, malacologists or professional biolo- 
gists are aware, in principle, of the desirability of obtaining detailed 
"collection data" for all the Spec: imens they collect in the field. Un- 

fortunately, in practice, these "collection data" are often limited to 
date, location, and collector and other data are not recorded for one or 
more of several reasons. It is suggested that detailed data should also 
include at a minimum: height above or depth below MLLW: physical substra- 
tum;, prey; predators; size; reproductive condition; spawn; color and 


other external characteristics; general habitat type. In addition, the 


behavior of the animal should be observed and recorded before collection. 
All data should be kept in an organized fashion. It was suggested that 

a matrix be developed for each species, the vertical columns listing each 
of the several parameters listed above and the horizontal rows listing 
the data by date and each individual animal. 

Ecological data, to be meaningful, should be temporally and spa- 
tially comprehensive. Several years data at regular intervals during 
each year for each of several habitats provide the basis for a fairly 
complete and accurate description of the life history, natural history, 
etc. of each species studied. 

These data should be presented succinctly, preferably as tables 
or figures, with a minimum of narrative. Quantitative data are prefer- 
able for the obvious reason that they are comparable from person to per- 
son and place to place. Only those statistical tests which will illus- 
trate a point should be used; statistics for its own sake is of little 
use except to confuse the reader. In addition, caution must be exer- 
cised when using species diversity indices, statistical tests, and other 
"quantitative" procedures, to be sure that the implicit and explicit as- 
sumptions of the procedure are understood and are met.

Collecting Nudibranchs in Nova Scotia. by J. Sherman Bleakney. 


Collecting nudibranchs in Nova Scotia is a challenge because there 
are relatively few species compared to your West Coast, most specimens 
are small, and it seems that invariably whenever I find the ideal tide 
pool it is just as the tide has turned and there is no way you can Eeceitls 
with a 50 foot Minas Basin tide on the flood. 

There is, however, a fascinating variety of habitats in Nova 
Scotia few of which have been examined for opisthobranchs and each de- 
mands a distinct type of field approach. The extensive and beautiful 
inland sea of Cape Breton Island, the Bras DOr Lakes, has a tide of but 


collected there as yet. There are narrow outlets to the sea with swift 
currents, quiet bays nestled in the Scottish-like Highlands, and even 
shorelines of gypsum cliffs and caves. 

In contrast, the Minas Basin has 50 foot tides twice a day which 
is ideal for tramping over the extensive intertidal zone (Bleakney, 
1972). It is rich in hydroids and ectoprocts thus yielding eolids and 
dorids; some 18 species so far. It is pointless to wade or dive in 
these Minas Basin Waters as the visibility if rarely over 4 inches, so 
my technique is to collect from stones using a spatula and from pools 
in the sand and mud using my Acadian SOCK apparatus (Bleakney, 1969). 

For this type of collecting I use a modified version of the SOCK which 
is without closure valve and has one side of the rim of the spout ground 
down so it forms a scraper which is especially useful for dorids. These 
can be scraped from rocks into the spout and then the SOCK is submerged 
in water and the finger released from the diaphragm thus sucking in some 
water together with the specimens. In winter I wear my cumbersome SCUBA 
foam neoprene gloves for intertidal waork but can easily collect using 
the SOCKs. I can even take flash closeups at night at these tempera- 
tures with the gloves on by using a Kodak Instamatic #304 with the plas- 
tic "Visualmaker" 3" x 3" copy stand. All one has to do is change flash 
cubes and advance the film. This is a convenient way to photograph egg 
masses that are cemented to rocks. The camera and copy stand hang SEOu 
my neck and are tucked into my jacket when not in use. 

A second collecting method used in this sand-mud intertidal zone 
is the flower-pot sieve. This apparatus was introduced to me by Dr, 

Kay Petersen of the University Zoology Museum, Copenhagen. I buy nylon 
plankton netting of 351 micron mesh and plastic flower pots of 6 inch 
diameter. After cutting off the bottoms of the pots, a piece of netting 
is stretched over one and this is slid into another pot thus trapping 
and stretching the netting. Glue is applied to seal the two pots to- 
gether and you end up with a double thickness flower pot with a plankton 
net bottom that is recessed about 1/2 inch up inside the pot. In the 
field, samples of mud are put in the pot and washed by pouring sea water 
through the sieve or simply by sloshing the sieve back and forth in 
water. Another approach is to place a mess of mud and sand or seaweeds 
or hydroids or gravel in a bucket, add water and stir most vigorously 
and quickly decant the detached specimens into the flower pot. Material

important minute nudibranchs. In the field this sieve concentrate is 
placed in a small jar with a little water and examined later in the lab 
under a binoc. A 2 mm Doto coronata is truly a thing of beauty! 

The pools on the salt marshes surrounding the Minas Basin are 
very productive in summer but more difficult to examine in winter be- 
cause of an ice cover which lasts for minths and has reached a thichness 
of 23 inches. This past January we examined a low tide area of many ice- 
free pools but our initial visual inspection revealed none of the usual 
summer species. However, a 6 sq. cm sample of mud from the bottom of 
one pool was given the flower-pot treatment, and upon examination under 
a binocular 2 Wematostella veetenis (anemone), 2Flysta ehlorottea and 
one Stiltger sp. were found. This plankton-net flower-pot technique 
should bé.applicable to sand, mud, algae, eelgrass, hydroids, sponges, 
crushed: coral, tidepool detritus and such, for the concentration and 
extraction of minute specimens which are otherwise impractical to search 
for. 

"Digby Neck" is a mile and a half wide volcanic ridge that runs. 
into the sea from the south-west corner of Nova Scotia. It is a kind 
of mini Baja Nova Scotia. Fault lines break it into several islands 
and the currents run 7 knots with tides of 20 feet. The productivity 
in the areas of these rip currents is so rich that fulmars and petrels 
feed within yards of the shore line. The epifauna and associated nudi- 
branchs are also prolific and can be hand collected at extreme low spring 
tides. However, the water is always very cold and on a hot summer's day 
my technique is to wear my SCUBA wet suit pants and socks with sneakers 
and wade about the tide pools or kneel in the coo! clear water and peer 
under large rocks, armed with my Little Red Riding Hood basket of SOCKs. 

The Atlantic "South Shore" of Nova Scotia is an entirely different 
area with mean tides of only 5 feet. The entire province slopes into 
the sea on this Atlantic side and the submerged landscape creates an ir- 
regular coast line of innumerable bays and islands. The protection af- 
forded by these islands and the low tidal amplitude make this region 
ideai for SCUBA work, tide pool collecting and dredging. I have recent- 
ly uséd & Zodiac inflatable boat for hauling an Ockelmann Dredge (Ockel- 
mann, 1964) and for SCUBA work. The flat bottom and extreme stability 
afforded by the inflated sides are a jow when hauling in a dredge or 
getting in and out with full SCUBA gear. 

Much of My SCUBA work on this Atlantic shore has involved the 
Acadian SOCK and rack (Bleakney, 1971). You can imagine how easy it is 
to suck up nudibranchs from the surface of Laminarta, Zostera, Tubularta, 
Volseltla and the surface of rocks. Retusa occurs in the Zostera ooze 
and can be collected by wafting the surface sediments away and then using 
a SOCK to pick them up. Another method I have used in such oose sedi- 
ments is to kneel on the bottom of the sea and scoop with a fine plastic 
kitchen strainer and then by sweeping the strainer in a figure eight 
pattern wash out all the mud. The remaining molluscs and plant detritus 
are then separated by holding the sieve at head level and inverting it 
quickly. Any stones will fall quickly, the living molluscs more slowly 
and the plant detritus the slowest. If the sieve is inserted into this 
sorted column of falling objects at the correct moment most of the mol- 
luscs’ can be extracted. 

Intertidally this South Shore area poses a real problem to me be- 
cause, the most stable rocks on the beach and therefore the ones with 
the oldest and best growth of epifauna are the larger ones, and they 
are often too heavy to turn over or lift up. To get at the underside

BLEAKNEY - TECHNIQUE PAPER CONTINUED: 


of these intertidat nudibranch gold mines I have tried a variety of ap- 
proaches with varying degrees of success. The most productive technique 
has been to take a biology class on a field trip and get three or four 
of the strongest boys to show off their combined strength. This method 
is thorough in that the rocks can be completely turned bottom side up, 
examined thoroughly and turned back over to their original position. 

In attempting to turn these large rocks by myself I have used two me- 
thods, neither of which was satisfactory but they are worth mentioning 
as someone else may improve on the idea and make it quite feasible. 

The first method was with one-quarter inch rope, two double blocks and 
large iron hooks. The block and tackle certainly moved larger rocks, 
but the ideally positioned rock was difficult to find. Often the hooks 
slipped or the rock slid before some supporting stones could be placed 
underneath. An improvement on this approach was a small cylindrical 
(l= /2"°x 421/72") hydraulic’ jack that could extend from 4-1/2" to 8¥-. 
Tt had a four ton lift capacity, but weighed only 9 pounds. Unfortunate= 
ly because of its small diameter the base would often slip sideways or 
simply push the rocks beneath it into the subsurface sands and gravel. 

A large heavy steel plate welded to the base would help. In any case, 
both of these methods only raised the rock up enough to see beneath at 
a difficult angle and it-was really a matter of reach in, scrape, and 
hope. The next logical step would be to select particularly productive 
rocks, permanently embed ring bolts in them and return at any season 
with a strong tripod and block and tackle. This way one could raise 

up one side of a large rock rather smoothly and study it season by sea- 
son.

ACCUMULATION AND DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION. - ABSTRACT ~ BY STEVEN J, 
LONG. 


5 The opisthobranch literature has reached almost 7000 published 
articles which are scattered through several hundred journals and pre- 
sent the researcher with an almost impossible task when tisynG (Osean 
all the literature pertaining to a given animal or subject. The major 
abstracts and indexes provide some assistance but their broad subject 
coverage prevents in-depth coverage of any given animal group. 

The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER attempts to bridge this void with 
current information on the opisthobranch literature and on the research 
now underway in all parts of the world. Monthly compilations of corre- 
spondence and literature searches are printed and mailed to all research- 
ers interested in this information. This keeps everyone up to date on 
events in the field and provides a forum for informal discussion of re- 
search topics.

give the PLATE numbers. Though the dear Editors are often reluctant 
to print them. However, one who sits on the border of the virgin 
forest, as I do, and must frequently order Xeroxes or Bibliofilms, 
the indication of plates is indispensable, else the reproducers 
simply do not care about them (even indicated, they often don't), 
and then it is another letter and another time of waiting, till 
the desired paper is finally complete."

From Robert Burn: "On 4 July 1973 occurred the death of A.A. 
Cameron of Harwood Island, New South Wales, at the age of 74 years. 
Alex Cameron was one of Australia's most experienced and assiduous 
opisthobranch (and other marine) collectors, and collected for Joyce 
Allan from 1938 to 1954, and for Robert Burn from 1960 almost to 
his death. He collected mainly in the Clarence River Heads area 
of northern New South Wales, and earlier on had collected on the 
Great Barrier Reef. Joyce Allan wrote up his collections from 
the Clarence River Heads in 1947 (Rec. Austral. Mus., 21(8) :433- 
463, pls. 41-43) and described Arehtdoris cameront for him. Re- 
gretably, this name is now recognized as a synonym of Doris peculi- 
aris Abraham 1877. Robert Burn named Noumea cameront after him in 
1966 (Veliger, 8(3):193), and plans to describe a new species of 
Catrtona as a tribute to him in a biography/memorial to be pub- 
lished in 1974. %22:

Tt was a first class ‘meeting, and .opisthobranchs received due mention

the meeting. 

I have really done very little sea-slugging in. my lene few months 
in Ghana, but I did at last turn: up a genuine Doris verrucosa, an ani-

animals that disappeared overnight. and never rematerialised, in this

‘Vo. .V(12):80 0. OP (OBRANCH WEWSLETTER — Novemser, 1975, 


From Dr. “Kikutard Baba: "During the last summer a seaside excur- 
sion was held by the members of the Biological Club, Takaoka Senior 
High School, Toyama-Pref., under the leadership of Mr. T. Abe and 
other teachers. The location was on the west coast of Noto Peninsula 


facing the Japan Sea. I joined with the party. More than 50 species 
of the Opisthobranchia were obtained by the members of which two or 
three appeared to be new to science. 

The following papers (MS) were presented lately to the editor of 
the separate journals. 

(a) Some comments on Lobitger souverbii Fischer, 1856, re-identi- 

_ fied, of Japan (Opisthobranchia: Sacoglossa: Lobigeridae). 
* for the VELIGER. 

(b) Notes on Lobiger souverbii Fischer, 1856, re-identified, of 
Japan (Opisthobranchia: Sacoglossa: Lobigeridae) . for the 
COLLECTING AND BREEDING (in Japanese). 

Recently I made an identification of Aegires punctilucens (da'- 

 Orbigny, 1837) based on a collection by Dr. Itaru Usuki from the. 

Sado Island on the Coast of the Japan Sea. A distributional note 
will be given elsewhere. 

I have a déep' interest. in studying Oxynoe virtdis (Pease, 1861). 
Tt appears to be a single unique species to be recorded malacological- ~ 

- oly from the Indian and the Pacific Oceans. I hope that the live ani- 
"= mal of O. panamensts Pilsbry and Olsson, 1943 will be taxonomically 
redescribed. Also it is to be expected that 0. oltvacea Rafinesque, 
1819 (the Mediterranean) will be studied again with special attention 
to the range of variability of color patterns. 0. oltvaecea includes 
O. antitllarum Morch, 1863. The two species, 0. viridis and 0. 
olitvacea do not appear to be different from each other in the essen- 
tial features of the internal anatomy. 

I would like to consider Plaeobranchus beeline van Hasselt, 
1824, as a single unique species distributed widely in the Indian and 
the Pacific Oceans. This name has a priority over P. tanthobapsus 

. Gould, 1852, and others, if the establishment of ocellatus is accept- 
ed as valid. 


—o Recently I made a brief observation on some specimens of the 


carnivorous sacoglossan, Olea hanstneenstis Agersborg, 1923, from the 
Friday Harbor, Washington, district. The specimens had been sent to 
me previously by Dr. G.A. Robilliard. Although these were not well 
fixed, a single specimen was sectioned in serial T.S. The anus lies 
Nn the pericardial region slightly to the right of the median line. 

It is closely associated with a nephroproct and an opening of a mel- 
anin black vesicle, just as in Freolania boodleae (See Baba & Hamatani, 
1970). The pharynx becomes very small. The radula is greatly reduced, 
yet there are noticeable a number of rudimentary teeth-like formations 
that are not in a regular row. Seemingly the liver consists of a 
single (?) mass divided into two halves posteriorly in the median 

line. Each of the branchial papillae contains a diverticulum derived 
from the liver mass. A penial stylet is present. Olea constitutes 

the type of a distinct family (Oleidae) and presumably is most close- 
ly associated with the Hermaeidae (=Stiligeridae). It is keenly 

“hoped that Olea will be studied in more detail by local zoologists.' 


Dr. R. Beeman travelled to England ane France aucune July of this 
year. While there he spent time with Prof. Wingstrom and Dr. H. 
_Lemche along with several others. Dr. Beeman is back in San Francisco 
working on Anaspidean sperm biology. ; ;

The annual meeting of the Western Society of Naturalists will he 
held at the University of San Diego, from December 27 through December 
30, 1973, at Alcala Park, San Diego, CA 92110: Dr: Ross Dingman, 
Department of Biology, is the local chairman. 


“Since we hope for a gathering of West Coast Opisthobranch people 

in December, the weekend of December 29-30 is very good. Many people 
will also want to see the WSN meetings. If you plan to attend please 
contact Mr. James R. Lance, 746 Agate Street, Ca 92109. Telephone 
(714) 488-2132. e, 
Eveline Marcus writes: " I visited 13 zoos, 7 botanical gardens, 
and 19 departments and museums, and slept in 22 beds, and spoke with 
about 40 zoologists aside from the about 50 members of the Meiofauna 
Conference at York." 

"Yesterday I had a telephone call from a huge cigarette firm here, 
and they wanted, for one of their let's say, Managers, information, 
whether I would be ready to classify some Aplysta for them from color 
slides, collected by Dr. Blankenship of Galveston [Texas]. Never 
heard of that name, and today, in the Newsletter, he turns up! Just 
imagine a cigarette fabricant interested in Aplysta, and his secretary 
POS ie aie from Rio about Aplysia!" 


From Dr. Helen Hughes (University College of North Wales, Depart- 
ment of Zoology, The Brambell Laboratories, Bangor, Caernarvonshire, 
United Kingdom): “Could you include a request for information ina 
future O.N. for me please? My husband has collected some opisthobranchs 
from Jeddah in Saudi Arabia, which I am trying to identify. I have 
one crumpled aeolid (no photograph) which fell from a xenid (soft 
coral): Heteroxenta fuscens. (Ehrengerg). Gohar (1940) in a paper on 
xenids mentioned that 2 species of aeolid were specific to xenids but 
he gave no further details. I wonder if any of your readers could 
help me to find out which aeolids he meant." 


From Alan M. Kuzirian (Department of Zoology,University of New 


Hampshire, Durham, New Hampshire): "After much delay I have finally 
completed my Master's Thesis for Dr. Morse (Marine Science Institute, 
Nahant, Massachusetts) . It was a comparative study of the histology 


and morphology of the reproductive systems of three New England 
Coryphellids. While researching the literature and after compilation 
of my own data I came across some possibly interesting evolutionary 
trends within the genus. I am continuing and expanding my scope of 
study on the New England Coryphellids for my doctoral work here at 
the University of New Hampshire under Dr. Harris. I would be ex- 
tremely grateful to receive any coryphellid species from the West 
Coast so I can compare them with the ones I'm finding here. Any 
information on the areas where the specimens were collected would 
also be helpful."

Clayton Carlson and Patty Jo Hoff have come up with a Christmas card 
illustrating Chromodorts quadrtcolor this year. It would be quite 

a collection if each opisthobranch person would do a different animal 
next year and exchange with all other branchers.

From Dr. Henning Lemche:"I intend to try solving the problem of the 
correct name for the oldest (or only?) known species of Hexabranchus, 
the aberrant dorid. The purpose is to get rid of the threat from 
Doris lacera Cuvier which, I think, should be regarded as having 
fallen as a nomen oblitum. The practical difficulty in any return 

to than name is that even though it is safe to be a Hexabranchus, 
nobody will be able to find out which is the possible subspecies,

gest that we follow Thompson (1972 - VELIGER 15:1-5) and take the

I am now going to inquire in the Senckenberg Museum to learn whether 
the type is extant: “If we accept that name, it becomes possible to 
operate with all later names: according to the merits of each. Any 
body objecting - please tell me at your earlies convenience, with 
information about your reasons for disagreeing with that proposal." 


From Dr. A. Myra Keen (2241 Hanover St., Palo Alto, California 94306): 
"Please put a note in your next OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER: that a ref- 
erence has come to light, overlooked by all the nomenclators, that 
puts Laura Trinchese, 1872, into homonymy. There is a prior Laura 
in barnacles. Thus, Plactda is again in good standing. I shall 
have a note in the April VELIGER giving documentation. I hope this 
will head off any appearance‘of Laura in print pursuant to my Octo-

I have this past week just returned from a dredging trip on HIMAS Kimbla 


in eastern Bass Strait between Victoria and Tasmania. Seventy sta- 
tions at depths of 18 to 1000 meters were sampled, and although opis- 
thobranchs were not very common, those that were taken were of great 
interest. Perhaps the best find was a tritoniid from 800-1000m, 
closely related to 7rttonta ineerta Bergh from New Zealand.

glossans. A new Elysta and a new Hermaea were found on epiphytes on

Dr. K. Baba writes that he has submitted a distributional 
record to THE VELIGER concerning Aegtres puncttlucens. 


From Dr. Henning Lemche:"..., I cannot stand quarrelling about 
the inclusion of the Pyramidellids. Our most estimated Dr. Vera 
Fretter did not only quite correctly remove these animals from the 
prosobranchs, but she also included them into the opisthobranchs, and 
this last seems to me most unwise. They form a separate group in 
between the large ones and could as well, and much more conveniently 
continue to be treated with the prosobranchs as an appendix. 

miner result of, the, transtern to the opis thobranchs is: thats the 
hitherto well delimited literature on our group is now clogged with 
all those references to prosobranch literature which by tradition 
also included the Pyramidellids. To me personally, it is quite a 
catastrophy, as I do not intend to take up the study of that very 
special group, but now I must have to look through hundreds (or is 
it thousands?) of papers to find out that they do not include true 
opisthobranchs. Hence, if in your list [OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER - 
Editor] you do not mark those papers referring only to pyramidellids 
(or other non-opisthobranchs), I cannot accept a record in your list 
if the title itself does not diréctly show that true opisthobranchs 
are treated therein. If the same thing happens to many colleagues, 
the “ast will haver lost extremely much in, value. 

"Recently Dr. A. Clarke called my attention to the homonomy of 
the family name ATYIDAE in decapod Crustacea, and in opisthobranchs. 
Unfortunately for’us, it seems that the crustacean name is the older 
one, and so I suppose that we will have to accept a slightly altered 
family name, say, ATYSIDAE. If anybody has other and better propo- 
sals, I am very open to suggestions. But the case will have to be 
referred to the Commission on Nomenclature for solution, one way or 
the other. [Lemche comments continued next page]

From Ron Long (Simon Fraser University): 'Sandra Crane and I 
have been working on an identification guide to the opisthobranchs 
of British Columbia. Identification is based on color photographs 
which seems to work well. So far we have produced three looseleaf 
copies which contain descriptions of fifty species plus photographs 
of four undescribed Dotos and one undescribed dorid. I'm hoping 
Sandy will get around to describing these one of these days. I wish 
it were practical to make the book available but the looseleaf copies 
cost about $40.00 each to produce, however we will be sending one 
around for comment so you will likely get to see it. There are still 
20-30 species described from this area which we have not suceeded in 
collecting as yet so the book in’ its present. formeis far” fromecome 
plete. Wevhope  to’find some of the missing species, next spring. and 
summer but are hampered by a lack of access to a boat suitable for 
diving. Interest has been such that it seems we will have a reason- 
able chance of getting the guide published when we have it completed 
to our satisfaction. 

I spent two weeks in August diving in the central Arctic with 
a party from the National Museum of Canada. Dr. Lee who led the trip 
was primarily interested in algae distribution and we two divers were 
supposedly concentrating on collecting algae on the dives. Naturally 
I spent more time looking for nudibranchs than algae and this got to 


JANUARY 1974 UPISTHUBRARUN REWSLEIIERK = VoL.VIC1):5, 


be a standing joke. When we came up after a dive Dr. Lee would ask 
how it was and I would reply "it was a lousy spot - didn't see any 
nudibranchs" then produce a bag of that uninteresting algae stuff 
and he would get all excited. I sure don't understand some people. 
It was cold and windy the whole time and suiting up on the bare 
tundra with no shelter and the wind chill bringing the temperature 
down to +7°F was no fun, in fact one day we suited up for a dive in 
a blizzard. 

"The bottom flora and fauna in the arctic is very sparse as a 
result of a combination of long periods of ice cover; a thick sur- 
face layer which contains a high percentage of fresh water from ice- 
melt; and a very fine silt which covers everything and apparently 
impedes settling. The only significant populations were burrowing 
anemones and brittle stars. Otherwise, we saw two species of star- 
fish, two or three species of snails, only one species or two species 
of bivalves and very few individuals of any of them. It was interest- 
ing to find, in terms of numbers of species, that the nudibranchs 
were better represented than any other obvious group. On our first 
dive I collected six species but quickly foundin the course of making 
ene - three dives a day for the next two weeks that this first loca- 
tion was very unusual. I never did find any additional species and 
never again saw as many species in one spot. 

"Sandy is presently working on the identifications. There 
doesn't appear to be any thing new or startling, but almost certainly 
they will) all be range extensions. The trip, all things consadered, 
was quite enjoyable in spite of the cold. It was a real pleasure to 
dive in that clean and clear water even though it was only 34°F at 
50 foot. And how many nudibranch people can claim to have seen musk 
oxsands polar bear on avcollecting, trip?

The Weather in San Diego over the 5th and 6th of January was 
not exactly conducive to good opisthobranch collecting with high 
winds and generally bad weather. Hope that a group can get together 
for some collecting later on in the year. 


Sam Spaulding has done a large amount of diving around the 
Santa Barbara islands this past year and has come up with pertinent 
data on the morphological variations between northern and southern 
forms of opisthobranchs in the area. 


Jim Lance is considering a trip to the Puerto Vallarta, Mexico 
area in the very near future. Past collecting there has produced 
many good opisthobranch finds.

The following is a note from the NAUTILUS, volume 30, number 
12, page 144, 1917: 


TO SUBSCRIBERS 


For twenty-seven years the present editors of THE NAUTILUS have 
tried to furnish to the lovers of conchology a little monthly keep- 
ing them in touch with the progress of the science and offering all 
who had interesting papers and notes a medium of publication. The 
generous appreciation of our subscribers has been our reward for this 
labor of love. 

Now we have to announce to our friends, that after due considera- 
tion, the editors have decided to issue the paper as a quarterly, 
beginning with Volume 31. 

There are many reasons for this change. First perhaps is the sav- 
ing in time on the part of the editors, and second, the fact that we 
can handle longer articles to much better advantage. 

(Continued next page) 


) 


JANUARY 1974 | OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER  voi.vic1):7, 


It is proposed to make each quarterly number 40 pages and to in- 
crease the subscription price to $2.00. While we greatly regret the 
latter change, it becomes imperative under present conditions. We. 
will cheerfully do the work, expecting you to pay the printer. As 
in the past author's separates and illustrations are furnished at 
the expense of the authors. 

The first number of the quarterly series will appear in July. Tak- 
ing for granted your sincere and ernest cooperation as in the past, 
the editors will endeavor to make the future numbers of THE NAUTILUS 
indispensable to students of mollusca. 

HiwA) pPewcutd) (Cri Wiclulie 


It was interesting to note four species of Australian nudibranchs 
in a shipment of marine fishes and invertebrates which arrived at the 
local pet shop. All four species were unknown to me although one was 
probably a Polycera, one a Chromodorts, and one a Hypselodorts. The 
body form of the fourth species was unlike anything on the West Coast. 
With pet dealers transporting tropical nudibranch species all over 
the world all sorts of interesting nomenclatorial problems could 
develop. 


COLOR OF ANISODORIS NOBILIS. Specimens of Antsodorts nobtlts (Mac- 
Farlan, 1905) frequently have dark pigmentation patches on the under- 
side of the mantle and on the vertical sides of the foot. This pig- 
mentation can be anything from a few specs to many large patches.

The editor takes this opportunity to thank all of you who have sent 
reprints, letters, and illustrations to him. Without the continued 
support of the professionals in the field this newsletter would not 
survive more than a few months. It is often a question of whether 

to include the material in the O.N. or spend the same time writing 

a thank-you letter and the editor normally chooses to spend the time 
typing the newsletter. I hope that no one will feel badly about this. 
Please send more illustrations and more information for the O.N. I 
can put large numbers of illustrations and other materials into issues 
which travel surface mail but time for preparation and retyping is at 
a premium. If at all possible please follow the O.N. format as close- 
ly as possible when sending typed material.

From Kerry Clark (Florida Institute of Technology, Melbourne, 
Florida 32901): "Have started taxonomic work on central Florida nudi- 
branchs. One early find is a Thecacera, a new record for this coast. 
Also have an Ancula, a Palto, and several other interesting forms to 
work on. Though our winter temperatures sometimes go quite low, we 
do get both Lobtger and Oxynoe here in August and October."

illustrations. Please continue to send materials for inclusions 
in future issues of the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER. Thanks to all 
who have sent reprints in recent months. I hope that you will con- 
tinue to send citations as soon as possible after publication as 
my access to publications has been very limited in the past months. 
Anyone who has collected information and notes on any aspect 
of opisthobranch study should seriously consider providing the mater- 
ial for inclusion in the O.N. Food preference lists, indexing mater-

Ep1tor’s Note: 


The BIBLIOGRAPHY OF OPISTHOBRANCHIA has now been completed through 
the end of all author names starting with "B". If any reader knows 
of additional citations please send them the editor. 

From a group of over 6,000 opisthobranch citations in the editor's 
bibliography somewhere over 2,000 were included in Dr. Henry Russell's 
"Tndex Nudibranchia". To date, an additional 1,000+ have been listed 
in the "Opisthobranch Newsletter" leaving somewhere between 3,000 and 
4,000 citations to be printed. Your help is urgently requested to 
insure the accuracy and completeness of the citations by sending all 
correetions and additions to the editor.

Ep1tor’s Note 


I am attempting to hold the subscription rates for this 
volume of the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER at the same rate as last 
even though the U.S. postal rates have taken a 25% increase this 
month but I must ask that everyone get their subscriptions as soon 
as possible to help defray expenses. This month's issue is being 
mailed together with the large February issue to help cut down mail- 
ing expenses. 

In the past few months it has become evident that some opistho- 
branch workers find the O.N. an invaluable aid to their research 
while others do not find enough interest to make it worth while to 
subscribe. If it (the O.N.) is not worthwhile to a greater number 
of researchers it will be discontinued with the end of this volume. 
In an effort to put more useful information into researcher's hands 
the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER will now accept short to medium length 
papers on ecology, range, morphology, and other matters dealing with 
the opisthobranchia. Manuscripts should be sent to the editor (one 
clean, readable copy is sufficient). Papers will be critically read 
by at least one additional opisthobranch person before publication 
and any changes will be cleared with the author. Reprints will be 
available at cost to the authors (about $1.50 per 100 copies of one 
page). Since many of the opisthobranch researchers read the ON it 
should not be necessary to send as many reprints out. A $5.00 charge 
will be made for each black and white photo used. Color photos may 
be used in some cases but the cost will be about $25.00 per photo. 

Because of increased costs I am forced to drop almost all of 
my molluscan journal subscriptions.. This will mean that the only 
source of new citations will be the researchers who publish the 
papers. If I am not told of new publications they will probably not 
appear for some time. Please send a reprint of papers as soon as 
they appear or at the least, a complete citation for the paper. 

Microfilm and microfiche copies of many papers are now avail- 
able from the editor. This service will be available to all persons 
who need papers. For papers not available to me every effort will 
be made to obtain copies. Please contact me for any requests. 

The only possible way to get complete bibliographic and index- 
ing information is from the papers. Please make copies available 
to the editor whenever possible. Anyone having papers on opistho- 
branchs for sale, trade, or donation should contact the editor. I 
will be most happy to take large collections of papers and distrib- 
ute them to persons requiring copies.

From Mr. James R. Lance: "Last December (1973) I had the oppor- 
tunity of visiting a number of marine laboratories along the Gulf 
of Mexico's Texas coast. Thanks to a previous invitation from the 
Houston Conchological Society, I was able to acquaint an enthusiastic 
group of shell collectors with the nudibranchs and their allies. 
From my point of view, a highlight of the venture was visiting the 
exact area from which a unique new burrowing aeolid has been found. 
These animals. appear to be seasonal; their appearance strictly de- 
pendent upon the sometimes presence of their prey; most probably a 
burrowing anemone." 


From Dr. P Bouchet (Muséum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Labor- 
atorie de Biologie des Invertébrés Marins et Malacologie, 55, Rud 
de Buffon, 75 - Paris (5e), France): "Mrs Pruvot-Fol died in Geneva 
on May 8th, 1972, at the age of 99. She was the daughter of Hermann 
Fol, a Swiss zoologist well-known for his work on Appendicularia. 
She married Dr. Georges Pruvot, director of the marine laboratory 
in Banyuls who published on Aplacophora. She wrote 90 papérs, mainly 
on opisthobranchs, bus also on Ascidians at the beginning of her 
scientific life. She retired definitely in 1962, after the publica- 
tion of her last work in the BULLETIN DE LA SOCIETE ZOOLOGIE DE ~ 
FRANCE, of which she had been a president in 1944. In the last 10 
years she was living apart from the scientific community and few of 
the present French zoologists have met her personnaly. Dr. Tardy 
visited her in the sixties and later created the genus Pruvotfolia 
in her honour. Most of her work was carried in Banyuls but she also 
worked with the "laboratoire de Malacologie" of Paris Museum where 
she studied many alcohol collections. Her house in Sceaux (south 
of Paris) was squattered several times when she was spending winter- 
time in Geneva: most of her very rich library has gone by this way 
and much of the material she had studied was destroyed. This con- 
tained probably many types she had not yet deposited in our museum. 
However I have recently found some of them in remote parts of the 
laboratory so all hope of refinding some of them has not gone. 

My collecting trip to Senegal is now finished and I am rather 
glad of its results. In 2 months I collected nearly 30 species of 
nudibranchs, 10 cephaliaspids and several species of Aplysids, Nota- 
spids, and Ascoglossans. Since all these were collected in summer 
(water temperature = 29°C) I think I will return there in future 
years at the end of winter (water = 18°C), when the fauna will 
probably be very different. I have also now in my hands the Opis- 
thobranch material collected by Marche-Marchad and stored in the 
collections of the IFAN (Dakar) and also a few species dredged in 
the gulf of Guinea by the ORSTOM boats. But I am not going to start 
publishing on these until after a few months; I have first to finish 
my work on the deep-sea Opisthobranchs - the Cephalaspidea (30 


species, 5 new) are now in press. The nudibranchs I collected some 
of them in October when dredging on the R.V. 'Thalassa' south of 
Ireland, between 500 and 2000m. In 10 days and nearly 70 dredging 
operations I found only 5 species: 2 tritonids, 1 polycerid, 1 
Phylltdta and one very small Doto."

Drawings for the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER are needed! Reductions 
can be made when necessary. Original drawings should be in ink on 
good quality paper, preferably opaque. 


Mr. Ian Loch, Flat 1, 5B Warburton Street, North Ward, Twons- 
ville, 4810, Australia, has recently subscribed to the O.N. Mr. 
Loch's major interest is with shells but he has collected Australian 
opisthobranchs for a number of years with the material going to the 
Australian Museum. 


Dr. Antonio J. Ferreira stopped by Pismo Beach on his way down 
the Calatornia coasit) fom ascollecting trap. He is making collections 
at several locations between San Jose and the Mexican border. Dr. 
Ferreira has been working with the genus 7ritopha for several months 
and would appreciate specimens of any California species. 


From Chris Kitting, 15644 Taloga St., Hacienda Heights, Ca 
91745 - "As we live 20 minutes from the June WSM conference (at Cal 
Poly Pomona) everyone interested is invited to our home for another 
“opisthobranchologists conclave". The Informal gatherings will com- 
plement the WSM meetings, June 19-21 and probably continue through 
the 23rd. There are dawn minus tides that week and Palos Verdes is 
1 hour away if anyone wants to do some tide-pooling. Be sure to 
bring slides, specimens, questions, and answers concerning this 
meritorious world of Opisthobranchology. You may want to bring swim- 
wear to cool off in the pool, and try to bring a sleeping bag if you 
can stay after the WSM meeting closes. Maps will be available at the 
WSM meeting or I can send you one upon request in case you plan to 
come straight here. If you get kost, call (213) 333-6905. It seems 
like an informative, efficient, fun vacation, and we hope for a large 
turnout. 


The Seventh Annual Meeting of the Western Society of Malacolo- 
gists will be held June 19-22 at California State Polytechnic College 
Pomona, California. The call for papers is now owt and information 
should be obtained from Dr. James H. McLean, ros pasties County Mus- 
eum of Natural History, 900 Exposition Blvd., L.#", California 90007.

From Hans Bertsch: "Jim McLean (President of Western Society 
of Malacologists) has asked me to chair the Opisthobranch Symposium 
this year at the meeting in Pomona.” , Anyone interested in presenting 


a paper on some aspect of opisthobranch biology should communicate 
with Hans immediately at: Department of Zoology, University of Cali- 
fornia, Berkeley, California 94720. "I would like to get a broad 
spectrum of papers, from new and'old' workers in the field, and would 
especially welcome papers from non-U.S. researchers." 

"T've been continuing my work on the chromodorids (would still 
like more specimens), examining radulae of various mollusks under 
the SEM; currently Dr. Tony Ferreira and I are working on a paper 
dealing with about 10 species from the Gulf of California, all of 
which we plan to illustrate with SEM of the radula. I'm getting 
some good comparative morphology data." 

"This quarter I am taking two courses from Paleontology (both 
on zoogeography); have still to find a fossil nudibranch. I saw one 
reference to it in a recent paper on the Mazon Creek Fauna, wrote 
the author, only to find he had just put down sa: loose tield gidenita-

Thanks are due the following people for recent assistance with papers 
and citations: Hans Bertsch, Antonio Ferreira, Richard Greene, Gale 
Sphon, David Mulliner, R. Tucker Abbott, Kikutaro Baba, A. Myra Keen, 
Eugene Coan, Henning Lemche, Alan Kuzirian, and Eveline Marcus, and 
Robert Burn. Without the continued support of readers the O.N. would 
be very short of information. 


The mail service is still causing many problems all over the world. 
Recent service interruptions in Canada have caused some issues to 
be returned and the size of ON VI(2&3) allowed mailing by printed 
matter and book rate so these issues were probably very slow to 
arrive. Both were mailed near the end of March. Persons who have 
not yet received their issues should contact the editor with a note 
stating missing issue numbers. 


From Robert Burn: "Not much news for ON, except that last weekend 
(27 April) proved exceptional for opisthobranchs at Point Lonsdale, 
Victoria, just 20 miles from home. In three hours in perfect wea- 
ther conditions, Ken Bell and I collected 41 species plus one pyra- 
midellid. Mostly they were in the under 10mm group and eolidiforms 
(ie with cerata-like appendages). Our technique was to observe the 
brown algae closely, and to pick the slugs up from the algal tips. 
Two species are new records, one species appears to be a new species, 
and other species confirmed earlier collecting data. One month 
earlier (31 March), the same locality, same conditions, and same 
techniques produced only 14 species. 


A trip with the family and friends to the vast mud flats of Corner 
Inlet on the eastern side of Wilsons Prometory, Victoria, was under- 
taken in late March. By concentrating on the fine sediments, we 
discovered living Tornatina, Retusa, Cylichnatys, Haminoea and the 
pyramidellid Cingulina." 


Dr. M. Patricia Morse writes that she may be making a trip to the 
West Coast (U.S.) this summer. We hope to see her in Pismo Beach 
if the opportunity avails itself. 


From Judith O. Hunter (Australia): "We expect to be in San Francis- 
co for about a week, May 27th - June 2nd and are then moving south 
spending a few days in Monterey and Santa Barbara. We will leave 
for Hawaii via Los Angeles on June 10th. 

I shall be bringing with me some’colour slides of Australian opis- 
thobranchs. A number of our species occur in Japan and New Cale- 
done."

Mr. Ian Loch (Flat 1, 5B Warburton St., North Ward, Townsville 4810, 
Australia) is a new subscriber to the ON. His major interests are 
with shells but he maintains marine aquaria and collects opisthobranchs 
for the Australian Museum. 


From Dr. Kikutar6 Baba: "For several months I have beem exclusively 
at my home doing bibliographical studies. My current subject is to 
describe a new and splendid species of Trinchesta collected very 
often from the Japan Sea coast of Japan. If everything allows me I 
would like to prepare a further report on the detailed anatomy of 
Trinchesta ornata (Baba, 1937) which is obviously allied to 7. ecae- 
rulea (Montagu, 1804) from the Atlantic and the Mediterranean waters. 
Trinchese's papers on Hermaea dendrittiea are greatly useful to me. 
Long before studies were made by myself on the comparative anatomy 
of the species Hermaea dendrttica (A.€H., 1843) and Plactida cremoni- 
ana (Trinchese, 1893) from Japan. Strictly speaking, Calliopaea 
dendritica A.&H., 1843 appears to differ moderately from either 
Hermaea Loven, 1844 or Placida Trinchese, 1876, though it may con- 
veniently be allocated to either one of the two genera according 

to authors."

VoL sVI(6) 44, OPISTHOBRAMCH WEWSLETTER = June 1974, 


From James R. Lance (Scripps Institute of Oceanography, La Jolla, 
California): "Don Cadien and I undertook an intense field expedition 
to search for opisthobranch mollusks along the jungle coasts of west 
Mexico during late January,1974. We headquartered at a small fishing 
village on the Nyarit coast. Thanks to a sturdy VW car we were able to 
explore the rocky shores from San Blas on the north, to the south end of 
Bahia Banderas. Although previous trips to the area had produced a. 
wealth of opisthobranchs, most of them undescribed or not reported as 
eastern Pacific components of the circumtropical fauna, we were over- 
whelmed to collect, observe or note more than 700 specimens belonging 
to 59 species in the short span of six afternoons of intertidal collect- 
ing. Several individuals of most species were returned alive to south- 
ern California for photographing and subsequent detailing of life cycles. 

Cadien found ten species of aeolids which will have to be described 
as new to science. New genera belonging to Aegiretidae and Lomanotidae, 
the prizes of the trip, were also taken. 

Researchers in inshore marine biology in general, and from our point 
of view, malacologists in particular, are encouraged to visit and cata- 
logue the unique inshore fauna (and flora) that will soon disappear from 
Pacific Mexico. Come soon!" 


From Gale Sphon (Los Angeles County Natural History Museum): "A 
couple of more items that we'd appreciate your listing in the O.N. for 
us: Bergh, R., Resultats des campagnes scientifiques...Albert I Prince 
souverain de Monaco...1893, Fascicule IV Opisthobranches prevenant des 
campagnes du yacht 1'Hirondelle; 1899, Fascicule XIV, Nudibranches et 
Marsenia provenant des campagnes de la Princesse-Alice. These are in 
original covers and we are asking $15.00 apiece for them. 

Another favor, too, please: I'd like to borrow any color photos 
of Pleurobranchus areolatus Morch that anyone has. Especially non- 
Panamic specimens. These will not be used without written permission 
from the owners, but I think that I have two new Pleurobranchs from 
the southern part of the Gulf of California and would like to check 
them out a bit more before I really get involved with them." Sorry 
about the broken finger Gale! 


Stephen Newswanger is still attending University of California 
at Santa Barbara and working with opisthobranchs. Good to hear from 
you again Stephen! 


The editor has a Xerox copy of "Opisthobranchia of Sagami Bay 
Supplment" but would appreciate an original copy if anyone has one for 
sale. If none is for sale I would appreciate the loan of one for a 
couple of weeks so that I may prepare microfiche copies. 


The section of Semper's Reisen which the editor has comprises 
over 3,000 pages and the duplication in paper copies would cost $.10 
per page. Eventually it will be all be available on microfiche for 
about $25.00. To date I have about the first 8 hefts but would be 
happy to provide any section on film or paper. 


Dr. K. Baba left for collecting at the Amakusa Marine Biological 
Laboratory, Southern Japan, on 20 May 1974. We wish him a good trip. 


From Eveline Marcus: "I have been granted the _._.C. by Sao Paulo.” 
Sorry Eveline, I couldn't decipher the letters - Congratulations! 


June 1974 OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER Vor.vice):45, 


Thanks from the editor to Dr. H. Lemche, Dr. M. Edmunds, Hans 
Bertsch & Stephen Newswanger, for recent help with citations. 


From Dr. Henning Lemche, Universitetets Zoologiske Museum, Copen- 
hagen, Denmark: "As to news about myself, I am going to Carna in Wes- 
tern Ireland in the month of July - repeating a visit I paid to there 
a couple of years ago. That place has plenty of opisthobranchs need- 
ing a closer study, and I still continue to make water colour pictures 
of as many as possible of those Northern Atlantic and Arctic species 
not well shown by Alder & Hancock around 1850. By now I have made 
about 80 plates. 

"On spetember 1, I am to retire from my official appointment as 
curator of molluscs at the Zoological Museum having reached the age of 
70 from which there is no escape back again. But I will continue to 
work at the museum as before, relieved of some official business to 
the advantage of my scientific work. Thus, there is no: need to change 
my address." 


Dr. Lemche has been sending many pages of citations which have 
not yet appeared in the O.N. which should be of great benefit to all 
of you who use the citations. There is no easy way to print a complete 
bibliography of the opisthobranchs. It takes yards of paper and many 
hours of typing - plus the help of readers to correct my mistakes and 
add to the list. 


The editor recently received a flier from the Nature Museum of 
York County, Box 211, Route 4, Rock Hill, South Caroline 29730, which 
states: "This museum has been chosen for the World Mollusca Census 
Center. 11,000 individual specimens have been received from points as 
far away as Antarctica to Russia. This Center will be open for stu- 
dents, scientists and interested individuals for research and study 
by the fatter part of 1974.5

The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER is published in twelve issues per year. 
Publication Address: Steven J. Long, 110 Cuyama Ave., Pismo Beach, 
California 93449, U.S.A. 

The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER is dedicated to the dissemination of information of 
interest to opisthobranch researchers throughout the world. The current major 
project is to print citations for all papers published throughout the world which 
concern or list opisthobranchs. This project has listed 1,600 citations to date. 
Planned future projects include a "World List of Opisthobranch Taxa" to be started 
in the near future, and an opisthobranch species cross-index to listings in papers. 
Citations for opisthobranch papers are needed. Please send listings for any papers 
not found in the O.N. to the editor, preferrably on 3"x5" index cards. This is 
especially true for new listings, which are often unavailable to the editor for 
several months or years after publication. Listings should include author name, 
publication date, title, journal title, pages, figures, plates, and any other in- 
formation known. 

Line drawings for the O.N. are needed. Please send drawings on white paper or 
board. Finished size should not exceed standard O.N. page width. Drawings can 

be reduced by the editor if necessary. I would especially like to see more draw- 
ings of animals from the South Pacific, North-east Atlantic, and Mediterranean 
areas. 

Please nottfy the editor of any persons interested in the optsthobranchs. Many 
new students eaeh year take up opisthobranch research and have no idea of the 
OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER's existence. I would ltke to be aware of each ‘person 
doing optsthobranch research even if they are not interested in the O.N. for 

thetr own use. I would also ltke to have short notes from each researcher from 
time to time telling what their current research interests are so that they may 

be tneluded tn the O.N. to help others with stmilar interests. 

The editor will be happy to exchange the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER 
with other natural science publications so that the citation informa- 
tion will be available. Any publication wholly or partially concern- 
ed with molluscs is of interest. Please send information to the 
editor at the address above. 

The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER has copies and reprints of many mollus- 
can papers. Papers are normally available on 105mm x 148mm micro- 
fiche but can be provided in electrostatic paper copies. Please 

send lists of papers wanted to the editor and specify whether you 

are interested only in original copies, reprints, electrostatic copies, 
16mm roll film, or microfiche. Please contact the editor with any 
papers or books you wish to sell and they will be listed in the O.N. 
at no charge as space is available. Readers often write to me re- 
questing a list of papers I have available but this would take about 
two hundred pages and is beyond my capabilities at this time. In 

the next few months I hope to list the papers I have available by O.N. 
citation number with a code for format avaiable - Please send what 
you want and I will tell cost.

Thanks from the editor to Stephen Newswanger, Hans Bertsch, James Lance, Henning Lemche, 
and others who have recently sent notes or material to the editor. 


The annual meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists provided an excellent meet- 
ing place for West Coast branchers along with Dr. M. Patricia Morse from the East 
Coast. Mr. Chris Kitting hosted several get-togethers at his parent's beautiful 

home in Hacienda Heights. Opisthobranch people in attendance included Stephen News- 
wanger, M. Patricia Morse, Michael Ghiselin, Pat Brophy, Pat LaFollette, Steven Long, 
Chris Kitting, Don Cadien, David Mulliner, Hans Bertsch, and Jim Carleton. 


Papers on opisthobranchs included the following:

MORSE, M. PATRICIA. 1974. Nudibranch Life CyeTesi: The Importance of Year-Round

GHISELIN, MICHAEL T. 1974. The Classification of Euthyneurous Gastropods at Higher 
Categorical Levels. 


Dr. Ghiselin's paper included general notes and very tentative proposals on Euthy- 
neuran classification. They are included below but do not constitute final published 
ideas and are presented only as food for thought.

Order Notaspidea The "old system" is taken from Thiele's 
Order Nudibranchia Handbuch der Systematischen Weichtierkunde. 
Suborder Doridoidea esa 
Suborder Dendronotoidea~ The “current system" is combined from Taylor 
Suborder Arminoidea and Sohl's 'An outline of Gastropod Classifi- 
Suborder Eolidoidea cation." (Malacologia, 1962, 1:7-32), and the 


Traite de Zoologie. 


In the "proposed system", a number of forms often treated as cephalaspideans would be 
considered anaspideans. The Soleolifera are considered to fall under Stylommatophora, 
and the Runcinacea and Philinoglossacea to fall under Cephalaspidea.

Please send specimens in alcohol or formalin to his address. 


From Mr. James R. Lance: "During late spring, 1974, I had the good luck to explore the 
some 250k coastline of Baja California, Mexico, that extends from Bahia Magdalena 

south to Cabo San Lucas. This open-ocean part of the Baja coast is pristine and acces- 
sible only by light plane or ships with landing partys ready to accept the challenge 

of unpredictable surf. The area is of particular interest to marine invertebrate biol- 
ogists because it is a focal region for mixing between the Californian and Panamic 
faunal provinces. We were able to make seven beach landings over a four day explora-— 
tion period and with the essential help of two divers, returned to Scripps in San 

Diego with 21 species of opisthobranchs - most of which will be offered as new range 
records."

The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER is published monthly by Steven J. Long, 110 Cuyama, 
Pismo Beach, California 93449, U.S.A. Subscription rates are $5.00 for individuals 
and $12.50 for institutions. 


Dr. Eveline Marcus is still in Europe and will return to Brazil in September. We wish 
her an enjoyable and useful trip. 


Dr. David Franz has changed his address to: Dr. David Franz, Department of Biology, 
Brooklyn College of The City of University of New York, Brooklyn, New York 11210. 


Wes Farmer writes: "You may have heard that I have been shaping up the Nembrotha thing. 
I have been asking for numbers for the holotypes and paratypes and have the majority 
now. There is one institution still outstanding. If everything goes well the paper 
should be out in mid 1975. 

The Tidepool Animals from the Gulf of California is now available with cloth cover 
(red). I had a few bound in the cloth for libraries primarily. I am working on hav- 
ing a reprinting of the book for the first printing is nearly out of print." 


A recent advertizement in the Los Angeles Times [California] read: "MUSEUM CURATOR, 
Natural Sciences, Salary $1049 to $1275 per mo. A college grad from an accredited 4 
year college or university with a degree in Marine biology, geology, malacology, or 
paleontology. Museum experience is highly desirable. Excellent Civil Service Bene- 
fits. 15 days vacation, All paid medical health plan, Excellent retirement plan. 
Apply Immediately, Closing Date August 21, 1974, CITY OF SANTA ANA." 


From Ian Loch (Townsville, Australia): "The diving was quite successful, about 15 
species of opisthobranchs being taken, 3 of them new to me. Also several interesting 
polyclad flatworms for the B.M.N.H. and several synaptid holothurians for the Austr- 
alian Museum. In fact everything but shells for me. As I write, I am watching 2 
Nembrotha kubyara and 2 Chelidonura electra mating. All of these were collected 
separately but mated in the tank in a day or so. Also, the water is filled with vel- 
igers from the orange egg ribbon of an Asteronotus brassica, laid about 14 days ago, 
which is par for the course around here, also for flatworms." 


Anyone knowing where copies of Baba's 1949 and 1955 books on Sagami Bay may be pur- 
chased please contact the editor. I need the 1955 supplement and several other branch- 
ers have expressed interest in both books. 


The Delaware Museum of Natural History (Box 3937, Greenville, Delaware 19807) is set- 
ting up a photo file of molluscan workers past and present and would appreciate a 
photograph of each worker throughout the world. Please contact them for further in- 
formation.

Virginia Waters has been collecting and studying lammellarians in 
the Northern California region for some time now and is having some 
difficulty with identifications. I know that she.would appreciate any 
help from other researchers. Her address is: P.O. Box 103, Arcata,

From Robert Burn(Australia): "A late saute aa autumn (May) expedi- 
tion to Deal Island, Bass Strait, between Victoria and Tasmania, was 
organized by the National Museum of Victoria. Though opisthobranchs 
were not specially sought out during the sub-littoral investigations, 
diver/photographer Neville Coleman returned with 10 or so species, in- 
cluding new species of Chromodoris, Aglaja and (?)Dtaphana. It is hoped 
POeepontenon tens collection during 1975.) 


From K. Baba (Japan): "During May 1974 I visited Amakusa. I was 
fortunate to collect a single specimen of Cerbertlla which lives bur- 
ied in the sand. At Amakusa it was assured that the Japanese species 
of the common Pleurobranchaea, heré identified as P. japonica Thiele, 
1925, differs greatly from P. maculata (Q. & G., 1832) = P. nouvaezea- 
landtaa Cheeseman, 1878, from New Zealand and Australia in the forma- 
tion of a copulating male organ (see especially the figures by Tchang 
Si, eS Sa) 

During the early part of August, 1974, a collecting party was organ- 
ized by the Biological Club of the Takaoka Senior High School of Toyama 
Pref. at Akazumi, Noto, on the Japan Sea Coast of Middle Japan. I 
joined with the party, and enjoyed observation of living animals of 
many species of opisthobranchs. 

A manuscript of Baba's paper was presented to the editor of THE 
VELIGER on September 11. It consists of a description of a new species 
of Trinechesia which is especially marked with a complicated coloration 
of the body. It is commonly obtained from the Japan Sea coast of Mid- 
dle Japan." 


Your editor has been very busy earning a living as supervisor of a 
large Microfilm Data Center for Federal Electric Corp. at Vandenberg 
Air Force Base, California. We produce over 1 million frames of micro- 
film per month. My opisthobranch activities are restricted almost en- 
tirely to the production of the O.N. and cataloging and indexing of my 
opisthobranch literature library. I hope to obtain copies of all papers 
sublished on branchs and make microfilm or hardcopy available to ay 


researcher needing them. It costs between one and h thei i a ol-

The editor will attempt to make copies of any paper on opisthobranchs 
available on request. Charges are kept as low as possible to cover 
copying and postage, expenses. Drawings for the O.N. are gratefully 
accepted and used in subsequent issues. Please send copies of any 

apers published by readers to the editor. They are needed for index- 
ing and reference. 

The editor will centinue to publish the O.N. as long as the present 
strong interest exists. I will be happy to accept subscriptions for 
1975 (Volume VII) at any time and hope to see enough early resubscribers 
to minimize my work in sending invoices. 


Susan Hewitt (Cambridge, England) was here during September and 
stayed with the Longs on two occasions before returning to England. 


From. Elizabeth Platts (Belfast, Northern Ireland): 'In May Dr. Tom 
Gascoyne - the Sacoglossan expert came to visit us for a few days - it 
turned into a slightly longer visit than originally intended as he co- 
incided with the Workers Council Strike, but nothing daunted he intro- 
duced us to the two saltmarsh opisthobranchs, Alderia modesta and 
Limapontia depressa. He freely confessed that by the time he arrived 

e was convinced that they wouldn't be here at all - but there they 
certainly are, in their millions. Now that we 'have our eye in' we 
are finding them on every piece of saltmarsh we look at! 

Our next visitors were more fortunate politically but the weather 
was very poor. Bernard Picton, (who dives with Greg Brown for Dr. Tom 
Thompson of Bristol University) who found the first British Atagema 
gibba, and his wife came over for a fortnights diving in July. espite 
the weather they made some good finds and added to the Irish records. 
One of the most satisfying specimens was Polycera faeroensis, several 
of varying sizes were taken in Strangford Lough, Co. Down. They ex- 
pected it to be there - but it was very satisfying when it actually 
was. This species was first recorded from Ireland by Dr. H. Lemche 
when he found it at Carna, Co. Galway." 


From Antonio Ferreira (San Jose, California): ''In September I spent 
two weeks in Moorea Id. i.e. Tahiti, Society Islands, French Polynesia. 
I dove two tanks a day, and did a reasonable amount of snorkelling 
considering it is Winter there and the water was relatively cold. For 
my efforts I found many nice shells, but... only one chiton, and two 
nudibranehs. Clinging to my three specimens (one of each), I took lots 
of pictures... and longed for the Gulf of California. So, to balance 
things, I will be going next week (14 October) to the Sea of Cortez, 
aboard the R/V Marisla, with the Steinhart Divers (California Academy 
of Sciences) on a ten day fish collecting expedition -- which shall in- 
clude chitons and nudibranchs, of course." 


From Dr. Wayne P. Aspey, Department of Neurobiology, The Marine Bio- 
medical Institute, The University of Texas Medical Branch, 200 Univer- 
sity Boulevard, Galveston, Texas 77550: "i am embarking on an ethologi- 
cal analysis of Aplysia behavior, and would appreciate hearing from 
and/or receiving reprints or preprints from researchers regarding nat- 
ural history studies, behavioral ecology, swimming behavior, social/ 
sexual tehavior, feeding, escape, and inking responses, as well as any 
other behavioral areas. Please send information to my address above."'

Jim Lance (San Diego, California) has been working on a cross-indexed 
systematic file for his reprint collection and on a survey of the San 
Diego opisthobranchs. With Scripps Institute personnel he has been do- 
ing a lot of research on the "Red Tide'' organisms. Jim writes: "For 


the past few years we have been testing the suitability of large numbers 
of species of isolated marine algae for their potential use as a food 
source for preadult stages of various groups of opisthobranchs. All 

of the algae tested have been motile, or have had, during most of their 
life cycle, a motile stage. All of the opisthobranch veligers tested 
have a pelagic period and feed by cilliary action. I would be pleased 
and anxious to correspond with others engaged in similar research."

zs y ; 


Work on the "Bibliography of Opisthobranchia" is progressing 
well. To date almost 1800 citations have appeared in the O.N. and 
more are going into my card file all along. I can only verify cita- 
tions for papers which are in my library and must list many citations 
which are known to me only from bibliograph data in other papers. 

I must enlist the reader's aid by asking that everyone send copies 
of new papers as soon as they are published or at the very least, 
accurate citations. Incomplete or incorrect citations in the O.N. 
normally mean that I do not have a copy of the paper at hand and I 
would be very happy to have one. 


Dr. Tony Ferreira is still working with the Triophas and try- 
ing to round up the remaining few literature citations on them. 


Jim Lance is doing some really good work with opisthobranch 
development and also working on the "Red Tide" found for many weeks 
on the Pacific Coast this year. The Longs visited Jim briefly on 
the weekend of October 26th. 


Dr. Dwight Taylor has moved north to the San Francisco area 
and will be teaching at Bodega Bay. 


Wes Farmer (1327 E. Donner Dr., Tempe, AZ 85282) has been 


collecting non-scientific references to snails, slugs, and sea shells 


for several years and would appreciate notes from others who have 
seen such references. This includes metaphors which refer to the 
same.

Subscriptions from Dr. Edmunds and Dr. Roginskaya are again 
welcome along with reprints! 


Dave Mulliner is still involved with geothermal wells and pol- 
lution testing. In addition Dave and Gordon Robilliard have been 
doing a lot of diving on a reef type formation about two miles off 
Point Loma in San Diego. Dave is considering a long term survey 
of the opisthobranchs and would appreciate suggestions and data. 


The editor would appreciate recent addresses for any person 
who is actively interested in the opisthobranchs. The most current 
addresses known to the editor are listed on the preceeding pages. 
The ON is available in exchange for other scientific publications 
and newsletters concerned with the mollusca. Please contact the 
editor. 


Available time for research of papers and information for the 
ON has been severely restricted during the past year and I must 
plead for assistance from all readers. Please send reprints for 
each paper published as soon as possible. I no longer have the 
Opportunity to spend time in libraries going thru journals for 
citations and will have to depend almost entirely on the journals 
I receive on an exchange basis and on citations from readers. 


The ON exists solely for the benefit of opisthobranch researchers 
and its content will reflect directly the amount of correspondence 
and information sent to the editor. I will attempt to answer all 
correspondence either by letter or through notes in the ON and will 
continue to supply any possible reprints or information to requestors. 
I have considered changing the format of the ON but have decided to 
keep it on 8-1/2" x 11" paper for preparation and reading ease. 

The pages per issue will probably remain around 4-8 per issue and 
I will attempt to get one out each month during the first few days. 


A new service will be initiated on a trial basis this month. 
Authors may send reprints to the ON editor for redistribution to 
episthobranch workers. Send a list of names and sufficient reprint 
copies to the editor and copies will be mailed with monthly ON 
Mailings. If no list is sent approximately 100 copies may be sent 
and they will be mailed to each ON subscriber. There will be no 
charge to the author for this service. 


James Lance and 6 others left for Nyarit on 21 January. The 7 
will be returning at different times with some coming back in late 


February, 


Don and Kathy Cadien returned from Mexico about 11 January. I 
hope to see them in Pismo Beach before too long! 


The edite.. received volume 7 of MALACOLOGICA,, REVIEW and will 
include the opisthobranch citations as time permits.

There will be a meeting February 8th in the California Academy of 
Sciences to discuss the second edition of R. Tucker Abbott's 
American Seashells. All interested persons are invited to attend 
at 10:00 A.M. in the Trustees' Room. 


Dr. Aurele La Rocque is still teaching and producing the STERKIANA 
but plans to retire from active teaching within the next few years, 


Dr. Anne Hurst is married and her new name is d'Espremeuil. We 
would appreciate her new address although she appears to be receiving 
mail at the St. Andrews address. 


Dr. Eveline Marcus: ''To my opinion the Akeridae or Akeracea must be 
included in the Cephalaspidea, with a perfect shell and with a head 
shield, and the Cylindrobullacea are intermediate between Cephala- 
spidea and Ascoglossa, but with reduced shell and head shield (also 
Asecobulla has one).

still looking for chromodorid specimens to work with. 


The Western Society of Malacologists announces a Student Research 
Grant of $500.00 to promote the study of malacology and invertebrate 
zoology. Interested graduate or undergraduate students should con- 
tact: James T. Carlton, Department of Geology, University of Cali- 
fornia at Davis, Davis, California 95616 - for application and 
materials. 


From Robert Burn § Ken Bell: "Though we have done a lot of collect- 
ing this southern spring and early summer, opisthobranchs have been 
rather few and far between. One small dorid appears to be new to 
science, but other species only confirm earlier discoveries or 

range extensions. We hope to collect in western Victoria in the 
summer and early autumn. Western Victoria is separated from our 
usual collecting grounds by very cold waters which form an effective 
barrier to the distribution of many opisthobranch species." 


From P. Bouchet (Museum National d'Histoire Naturelle, Laboratoire 

de Biologie des invertebres Marins et Malacologie, 55, rue de Buffon, 
75 - Paris (5°), France): "I am presently finishing my work about

Heterodorts robusta Verrill §& Emerton but in fair numbers. Severai 
cephalaspideans were collected alive, down to 4700m. Lateraliy, I 
am studying the nudibranchs, 1 collected in 19735 in Senegal. thee

P. Bouchet (Museum National D'Histoire Naturelle, Laboratoire 
de Biologie des Invertebres Marins et Malacologie, 55, Rue de Buffon, 
75 - Paris (5-), France) writes that the museum is building a musical . 
display on Nudibranchs for a 6 months'display setup. The opening 
is March 21st so please contact P. Bouchet as soon as possible if 
you have photos you would be willing to donate. All photos will 
be reviewed as soon as received and returned immediately if not 
selected. Selected photos will be duplicated and returned. The 
museum will give credit as co-authors for the photos. About 6 
displays per day will be shown. 


The Western Society of Malacologists annual meeting will be 
held jointly with the American Malacological Union meeting June 22- 
26, 1975, on the campus of San Diego State University, San Diego 
California. There should be an excellent opportunity for opistho- 
branch researchers to cet together this year at San Diego.

NOTES AND NEWS 


Rosalind Hinde is doing research work at Sydney University on 
the symbiotic chloroplasts of the Australian Flysia. Prior to this 
time she was doing similar work on Flysia virtdts at the Department 
of Agricultural Science, Oxford, England. 


Microfiche of back OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER volumes are going 
out to current subscribers. 


The editor's daughter greatly appreciates all of the stamps 
which arrive on letters to the ON. Her stamp collection is growing 
by leaps and bounds. 


Eveline Marcus has a manuscript ready on Kentrodorididae and 
is also working on Aplysta and Toledonia. 


Sandra Crane is doing some SCUBA and collecting additional 
opisthobranch species in the Vancouver region. Two recent finds 
include Coryphella fusea and another species which is probably 
either C. ruftbranchialis or C. longteaudata. Gordon Robilliard 
or someone could probably provide some assistance along that line. 


Who is going to volunteer to work out the Doto species of the 
West Coast and other parts of the world? 


From Robert Burn: "Have recently returned from family holiday 
in the far west of Victoria and the town of Portland. Managed to 
find 22 species of opisthobranchs and one pyramidellid. A couple 
of species appear to be new, some others are westward range exten- 
sions, and a couple more are proving hard to identify. One species 
that was very satisfying to find alive was Ascobulla fischeri (A. 
Adams & Angas, 1864) amoung the roots of Caulerpa. 

"The first of the sortings of the deep water (500-1000m) sam- 
ples dredged by H.M.A.S. Kimbla off eastern Victoria during Novem- 
ber 1973 are now available for study. Already pleasing results are 
obvious among the opisthobranchs, species of the genera Retusa, 
Abdesptra, Phitline and Pseudoacteon being the most common." 

Bob is off to western Victoria—for_more collecting in March.

From Henry D. Russell: "As to my own activities they range from 
setting up a self-guiding nature or hiking trail, a nature guide to 
1000 acres here at the Hale Reservation, setting up a shell exhibit 
at the New England Aquarium, writing a nature guide and the geology 
of the Neponset River Basin for the Neponset Conservation Associa- 
tion, adding to my Nudibranch Index and going to Bermuda for a con- 
servation conference to meet with Dr. David Wingate who is doing 
wonderful things in bringing back the native flora and fauna to the 
islands." 


With deepest sympathy to Jack Brookshire on the death of his 
wife Annette. Anne is also survived by Karen, Scot and Conrad her 
three great children. 


From Doris Bull and Marta Grossman (Department of Physiology, 
College of Physicians & Surgeons of Columbia University, 630 West 
168th Street, New York, N.Y. 10032): "We are involved with the cul- 
turing of Aplysta californica in order to supply our neurobiology 
department, headed by Dr. Eric Kandel, and also to study the devel- 
opment of behavior. Our current projects include experimentation 
with artificial waters in which to raise the larvae and the culti- 
vation of red seaweeds, such as Laurenecta.and Polistphonta, which 
to feed the animals. We would appreciate any information you might 
have from other readers who are doing similar research."

Dr. Patricia Morse is scheduled to give a talk before the 
Boston Malacological Club on 1 April, 1975. She will discuss some 
West Coast opisthobranchs. 


The joint meeting of the Western Society of Malacologists and 
the American Malacological Union is scheduled for June 22 - 26, 1975, 
on the campus of San Diego State University, San Diego, California. 
I have great hopes that a number of opisthobranch people will attend 
as this is the first joint meeting ever and would be an excellent 
opportunity to get East and West Coast people together. 


Chris Kitting has a temporary address until about June, 1975.

The predators mentioned above were nudibranchs and others in 
association with gorgonians. Chris was at St. Croix for 11 weeks. 
Chris would like to correspond with anyone interested in gorgonian 
predators.

Epttor's NoTE 


For those who are wondering, I am not getting out of the 
episthobranch area but I will probably not be doing any serious 
research for several years. As long as interest in the OPISTHOBRANCH 
NEWSLETTER continues at a reasonable rate I will continue publishing 
the O.N. I am converting my files to microfiche as rapidly as pos- 
sible to reduce space requirements. I am attempting to acquire copies 
of all published opisthobranch references and the storage space re- 
quired is ridiculous. 

Please continue to send citations for new papers and stamps 
from worldwide. I will continue listing all possible papers but 
many will be missed without your support. 

The listings of papers for sale are an attempt to let people 
know which papers I have already obtained. If a citation is incon~ 
plete or incorrect in any way it is probably because I have not seen 
the paper and I would be very happy to obtain a copy (and to pay any 
reasonable costs for the copy). 


Dr. A.J. Ferreira is finishing up his studies of [rtopha and 
preparing to publish some findings. He would still appreciate speci- 
mens for dissection. Dr. Ferreira has recently spent two weeks in 
Panama collecting on both coasts. He found a number of interesting 
episthobranchs and chitons. 


Helen Hughes will be in Capetown, South Africa, from July lst 
1975, until December 3lst, 1975 and will be happy to collect specimens 
for others when possible. Please contact her with specific desires.

Please save world-wide postage stamps for my daughter, Kristin. All 
issues are appreciated, including common stamps, and U.S. issues. 


Thanks to K. Baba, E. Marcus, M.C. Miller, H. Bertsch, J. Lance, D. 
K. Young, P. Brophy, and others for recent papers and information 
sent to the editor. 


The three drawings on page 15 of this volume were provided by Wes 
Farmer. 


Cerbertlla mosslandtca McDonald & Nybakken, 1975 & Hallaxa chani 
Gosliner & Williams, 1975, were recently described from the Cali- 
fornia coast. 


The editor recently spent 4 days in Anaheim, California, attending 
the National Micrographics Association annual convention and show. 
While there, his car was stolen but recovered a few days later in 
good condition. It was an interesting week. 


K. Baba & I. Hamatani have a paper entitled "An Illustrated List 

of the Phyllidiidae from Seto, Kii, Middle Japan (Nudibranchia: 
Doridoidea)", in for publication, probably in early 1976. Dr. Baba 
is also preparing a paper on a Solenogastre species for publication. 


The joint meeting of the WSM and AMU is coming up in June. TI hope 
that many people will be there. It should be an excellent oppor- 
tunity to see color slides and prints of many opisthobranch species. 
As yet I don't know any of the paper titles but I will put them in 
the ON June issue if they arrive in time. 


Dr. A. J. Ferreira is working on the draft of his [fritopha paper and 
I am certain he would welcome any last-minute specimens or informa- 
tion. (2060 Clarmar Way, San Jose, CA 95128) 


Dr. Adolf Portmann is finally recovered from a long illness and is 
finishing up a treatise on Cephalopods. After this work he hopes 
to get back to Opisthobranchs. 


I haven't heard how the opisthobranch slide presentation is going 
for Dr. P. Bouchet. Perhaps someone can tell me. 


I noted a complete copy of Alder & Hancock with Eliot supplement 
for sale in a recent Antiquariaat Junk listing.

David Behrens is now living in Baywood Park, where Richard Roller 
used to live, and working at Diablo Nuclear Power Plant as a Biolo- 


gist. 


The NEWSLETTER BOSTON MALACOLOGICAL CLUB mentions Dr. M.P. Morse's 
experiences collecting nudibranchs on pre-dawn tides in California. 
(NBMC Vol.6(8)). It would be interesting to hear of some of the 
interesting or different collecting techniques and accessories 
around the world. In California, for example, the very best tides 
are the dawn tides with low tide occurring just before daybreak. 


McGraw-Hill has recently published a $19.95 edition of "The Col- 
lector's Encyclopedia of Shells" by S. Peter Dance. Includes over 
1500 color photos of "Shells". 


Eveline Marcus is still at work classifying eolids and other opistho- 
branchs. 


Pat Brophy is still collecting shells; doing a lot of dredging, I 
suspect, in the channel between Catalina Island and the California 
mainland. 


From Jim Lance: "The tropical coast of west central Mexico (Nyarit 
State) and its annually changing opisthobranch residents were, for 
the fifth year in a row, the focus of a field expedition during 

this past January (1975). Our group, Jim Nybakken and Gary McDonald 
(Moss Landing Marine Labs), Larry Wilson and John Holmes (San Diego), 
Hollis and Constance Boone (Texas) and myself returned to the 
oceanographic center at Scripps with some 200 specimens comprising 
about 48 species. Representative specimens have now been photo- 
graphed. Many remain in culture. Some interesting new species of 
circumtropical genera were again found. We were very startled to 
find the Japanese species, Babaitka festiva and the southern 
California, Thordtsa bimaculata on these tropical shores." 


Richard Walty is still in the San Diego area doing ecological work 
for Lockheed. He is spending most of his time diving.

Thanks to M. Edmunds, H.P.I. Hughes, J. Lance, D. Mulliner, 
A. Ferreira & R. Burn for information recently sent to the editor. 


P. Bouchet's museum display included work by 42 photographers. 


From Dave Mulliner: "Exon's fourth quarter 1974 journal con- 
tains a series of underwater photos. The photos were taken by Bob 
Evans off an oil platform in the Santa Barbara channel and include 
one of Hermtssenda crasstcornts. 

"On a recent trip to San Felipe [Baja California] the last 
week of April we found Coryphella eynara in the intertidal. They 
were in substantial numbers from north of San Felipe to 15 miles 
south. Joyce Gemmel said that on the low tide two weeks previous 
they were all over the beaches by the thousands." 


Jim Lance and Dave Mulliner went to Baja California (L.A. Bay 
and Conception Bay) and should return around the first of June. 
They plan both diving and shore collecting. 


Tony Ferreira has just returned from a two week dive-collect- 
ing trip along the Florida Keys. He found many chitons but very 
few nudibranchs. 


All citations of D & E are completed and F is started. The

From Ian Loch (Flat 1, 5B Warburton St., North Ward, Townsville 
4810, Australia): "For the first time I've been out on several 

reef trips without finding species of opisthobranchs that are new 

to me. The numbers are still there (about 20 species last weekend) 

but nothing different. However, there has been an upsurge in the 
local coastal species, including a few I haven't seen for five years 
and a couple new to me, which is encouraging. 

In the aquarium there are the usual ups and downs. Dendrodoris 
niger, Nembrotha kubaryana and several of an Aplysta sp. have laid 
eggs lately. Also, a sabre toothed blenny came along soon after 
and ate all of the aplysid eggs. 

On a recent fishing break before reefing at low tide, an inde- 
terminate Dolabella sp. turned up in the gut contents of a sweet 
lip emperor, one of the local lutjanids. Have seen them with all 
sorts of 'unpalatable' invertebrates in their stomachs eg. chitons & 
holothurians. 

Some interesting associations in the aquarium with the prawn 
Pertcltmenes tmperator, which is commensal on Hexabranchus sanguineus. 
They are quite happy on Chromodorts ttinetoria & C. vicina (Until 
the host dies) and in the field I've seen them on Pleurobranchus 
forskalt, C. vicina, Euretaster instgnts (an asterid), other 
holothurians and on the walls of a stomatopod burrow. Obviously 
not really host specific, especially the juveniles. 

Pertclimenes holthutst will take to chromodorids to, in the 
absence of its normal host Fungta actitntformts in the aquarium. 

Recently found another specimen of my Phyllidia mimicing flat- 
worm. And at Lizard Is. in December some friends and I found a one 
inch sole, an aglajid unknown to me and the turbellarian Pseudoceros

David Shonman (Moss Landing Marine Lab, P.O. Box 223, Moss Landing 
CZlifornia 95039) is collecting information on molluscan predation

From Dr. M. Patricia Morse (Northeastern University, Marine Science 


Institute, East Point, Nahant, Massachusetts 01908): "I am off 
next Tuesday to visit Panama and then to Brasil. I will be working 
with Dr. Eveline Marcus at the University of Sao Paulo.... Most of 


my concentration will be on interstitial molluscs and especially 
acochlidaceans. We have one new species, Unela nahantensis, Doe 
1974 with type locality here at the Northeastern Marine Lab. I 
have three more new species in the works. They are fun to work 
with but 2 mm in size is a bit difficult to spot in the field! 
Needless to say, they are extracted in the field." 


P. Bouchet's opisthobranch display at the Muséum National d'Histoire 
Naturelle (See ON VII(2):8) is apparently completed and most or 

all slides have been returned to persons who sent them. A booklet 
entitled “Coquillages du Monde" was printed in conjunction with 

the display which includes many nudibranchs. 


The Western Society of Malacologists/American Malacological Union 
joint meeting was held from 22-26 June, 1975 with a large group 

in attendance. Unfortunately the editor was able to stay for only 
the first two days because of job committments. Nudibranch people 
in attendance included S. J. Long, Dr. J. Nybakken, G. McDonald, 

D. Cadien, P. Brophy, C. Kitting, D. Shonman, H. Bertsch, G. Sphon, 
J. Lance, Dr. G. Robilliard, D. Mulliner, P. LaFollette, R.. Robert- 
son and J. Carlton. Undoubtedly I have forgotten someone else - 
Like W. Farmer, for example. My apologies! 

The Meetings were held on the campus of San Diego State University 
and included the following papers which included opisthobranchs:

The long range goal of the OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER is to pro- 
vide a complete bibliographic index to the opisthobranch literature 
as well as a source for copies of all papers and books on the subject. 
The short range goal is to provide a contact point for all workers 
throughout the world to keep in contact with each other and with 
what is happening in the way of research. 

Periodically I get paranoid thinking there are many people who 
think the ON is published on a huge budget by a large staff of 
people with nothing else to do. That is definitely not the case 
and never has been. I publish the ON alone on a budget of less 
than $1000 per year and do it in my spare time, usually in stead 
of sleeping. Without comments and information from the people work- 
ing in the field it is impossible to produce anything worth reading. 

As you will note above, I have recently moved and have all of 
my books scattered in piles. I am trying to convert all to micro- 
fiche for ease of storage and use. When this is complete I will 
ask for the loan of papers and books not in my files so that I may 
eventually obtain complete literature information. My biggest prob- 
lem right now is that my printing press and platemaker are not even 
in the same city as me and the press is not in operating condition. 

Please send papers and books for citation in the ON. If you 
need them back please indicate that fact in the package. I have 
no great desire for reprints except for citation and filming pur- 
poses and will be happy to return them as quickly as possible. 

Citation numbers 7283 through 9527 have been added to cards in 
my file and will be printed in the ON as time and space permits. 

I do not subscribe to any journals except exchanges now so please 
be certain to send me citations for all papers Salo sine BE ERR SH 
will be missed. Thank you!

The editor would be happy to have copies for my file also. 

Send Carlson's to Box 8019, Merizo, Guam 96916. 


Hans Bertsch's new home address is: 2910 A. Hillegass, Berkeley, 
California 94705. Hans writes: "I had a good trip to Mexico; spent 
7 weeks as the Assistant Resident Marine Biologist at the University 
of Arizona-University of Sonora, Mexico, Co-operative Marine Station 
at Puerto Penasco, Mexico. Got ina lot of collecting; not many 
species this time of year. Some of the local help told me which 
animals were around in the wintertime but not now." Hans returned 
to Berkeley about August 31st. 


From Kaniaulono B. Meyer: "After 4 and a half good years here 
in Panama we are leaving to return North. Dave has a job with the 
geology department at the University of Cincinnati so we will leave 
the sea and sun with hopes of returning here or to other tropical 
climes in the summers. 

"I have written up the dorids of Galeta Point and submitted it 
for publication. Hans Bertsch and I are working up a paper to in- 
clude all my specimens from the Pacific side of the Isthmus. I 
will eventually work up the rest of the Caribbean opisthobranchs 
that I have collected here. 

"I would appreciate your putting in the following Veliger Vol- 
umes for sale in the Opisthobranch Newsletter: Vol. 9-11 for $20 
and Vols. 14-17 for $25 each. I will send you my new address as 
soon as we have one. In the meantime I can be contacted at the 
following address: c/0 Dr. D.L. Meyer, Department of Geology, 
University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio 45221." 


From Eveline Marcus: (29 July 1975) "Dr. Morse and I intended 
to write to you, together, but we were so busy with sieve sand 
for interstitial opisthos and then going through the results under 
the microscope, that we did not find time to write.... We had a 
good collection at the original site of our acochlidiaceans, and 
took some larger nudies. Now Dr. Morse is at Salvador, Bahia, on 
her own. I do hope she finds someone who speaks English. Between 
trips we had the very sad news that Bertril Swedmark died July lst. 
He as described several Microhedylidae-Hedylopsidae. We deplore 
his . losisi. 

"I have finished a collection of opisthobranchs from Colombia, 
to be printed in the Studies of the Neotropical Fauna, and a de- 
scription, in co-authorship with Susan Gallagher - Treasure Island, 
Florida - on a new Dendrodorts which Susan and Pat Armes had col- 
lected and photographed."

The OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER is still willing to provide a 
reprint mailing service for author reprints of all sizes. The 
normal subscriber list is the mailing list and one copy will go 
to each current subscriber. Send sufficient copies to the editor 
and they will go out with the next edition. There is no charge 
for this service. In the case of plain papers without photographs 
the editor will print and mail the reprints from one good quality 
original paper for $2.50 per page. You should include one or two 
good printed copies and sufficient money to cover the page charge 
along with a detailed request. 


From Dr. Kerry B. Clark (Florida Institute of Technology, 
Department of Biological Sciences, Melbourne, Florida 32901): "I 
now have several graduate and undergraduate students working on 
Opisthobranch research. Florida has a high opisthobranch diversity, 
though finding them requires careful searching. I've found a new 
Costastella, which I am describing, and have sent a description of 
a new Lomanotus off for review and publication. Both genera are

imperfectly known (all species in both genera were described from 
one or two individuals, except Eliot's Lomanotus vermtformis). We 
have found several other new species, but are delaying descriptions 
until we can identify the food supplies and use entire populations 
to encompass the range of variation within the genus." 


Constance E. Boone (3706 Rice Boulevard, Houston, Texas 77005) 
is a new subscriber to the O.N. although she has been collecting 
opisthobranchs for some time. She writes: "I enjoyed my visit at 
San Diego. [WSM/AMU meetings] It was great to see Jim Lance again. 
We finally did get out on an early morning collecting trip which I 
thoroughly enjoyed. After that my husband and I went on down to 
Ensenada. I collected there a bit and took the Nudibranchs back 
COudam*. 

"We dashed on home, left a few weeks later for the Florida 


Keys and Bimini. It has been some five years since I have been to 
the Keys. Since that time I have become more and more interested 
in Opisthobranchs and see more now. In Bimini it was my very great 


delight to find in a rock crevice a living Micromelo undata." 


From Robert Burn (3 Nantes Street, Newtown, Geelong, Victoria, 
Australia 3220): "Recently (June 1975) published here in Australia 
is the book What Shell is That? by Neville Coleman of Sydney. 

There are 800 coloured figures of Australian shells including 70 
opisthobranchs; many of the latter are new records for this country 
and some are the first coloured figures available of species that I 
have described over the years. Autographed copies of the book are 
available surface mail at U.S. $20.50 (packaging and postage included) 
from the author. I shall gladly pass along any enquiries. 

Did you know that William Macnae died during 1974? I have no 
other details."

Wes Farmer is now a full time student at Arizona State University and 
Will probably be there for two or three years. He is working on a 
degree in Adult Education. He has a copy of his Wembrotha paper off

cornts about six inches long. 


An address for Prof. Dr. N. Bacescu is as follows: Museul de Istorie

Address is courtesy of Dr. Eveline Marcus. 


Eveline Marcus was designated as co-author of the "Studies on the

An updated address for Dr. Anne (Hurst) d'Espremenil. She still lives 
in Scotland but I have no address newer than "Gatty Marine Labs". 


Eveline Marcus has a third list of Brazilian Euthyneurans in press. 


The last (September) issue of the ON was printed commercially at some 
expense as I have been unable to get my printing equipment together 

and do the printing. I am now (November 7) typing up October, Novem-

not all be in standard order. If I can get to the press before I fin- 
ish the December issue I will print and mail - otherwise I will probably 
print all three and mail at one time. - Editor. 


From Dr. Kikutaro Baba: "Last summer K.B. went to the Japan Sea Coast 

of Middle Japan to join with the collecting excursion executed by the 
members of the Takaoka Biological Club at Nuka village of Echizen Coast 
near Tsuruga Bay. More than 45 species of the fine Opisthobranchia 

were recognized to occur there. Readers of the paper: 'An illustrated 
List of the Phyllidiidae from Seto, Kii, Middle Japan (Nudibranchia: 
Ddridoidea)' by Baba and Hamatani and appearing in THE VELIGER, 18(2): 
174-179 are kindly requested to read 'H. Hughes' instead of 'R.L. Hughes' 
(pc, 175 Liner 2vof. right column). ¢ 


Dr. Auréle La Rocque is still producing his fine STERKIANA numbers and 
working on an index to numbers 41-60. Best regards to him! 


Clayton Carlson has recently collected topotypes of Quoy and Gaimard, 
1833 for Eveline Marcus. Dr. Marcus is now finishing her paper, begun 
with some collaboration from Dick Roller, in 1970. The paper is getting 
quite large. Eveline Marcus would appreciate some Japanese Tornatina- 
Acteoctna specimens complete with animal in the shell. She is helping 
people with special individual identifications as time permits. 


I am certain that ON readers would appreciate short technique notes 
from experts such as Dr. Marcus on how to do some of the identification 
processes with small cephalspideans and other opisthobranchs. - editor.

Type Specimens of Opisthobranchia (including Pyra- 
midellidae) in the Zoological Museum of the Hebrew 
University of Jerusalem. 1. Type Specimens of Taxa 
Described by Giorgio S. Coen. 
by 
Henk K. Mienis 


This list of type specimens of Opisthobranchia (incl. Pyramidell- 
idae) described by the Italian malacologist Giorgio S. Coen is based 
on material present in the Coen collection. This collection was do- 
nated to the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in 1953. 

The list includes a total of 17 entries arranged alphabetically 
by the genus in which the species, subspecies, or infrasubspecies 
was originally described. Each entry contains the reference to the 
original publication, the type locality, the type category and the 
collection number. 

Most of these taxa were introduced as manuscript names of Montero- 
sato and according to.the rules of the International Commission on Zoo- 
logical Nomenciature the authorship of these taxa belongs to Coen.

Observations During Embryonic Development in the 


Genus Doto (Gastropoda, Opisthobranchia) 


ABSTRACT

Eight species of the genus Doto from the Mediterranean 
and the Channel (Plymouth) are described.

(1968) and is therefore mentioned only in the synopsis. 
descriptian of the external features of the animal is given, together 
with the morphology of the genital system of all the species (except 


A detailed 


D. cusptdata), as well as some ecological and embryological data. 
The typical external morphology and colouration of the living 

animal of all the described species is to be found in the synopsis. 
D. acuta n. sp. from the Mediterranean looks very similar to 


ptnnattfida and has appeared in the literature under this name until 
now, but the species differs in having a black mark at the inner side 
of the cerata and at the base of the rhinophore. 
pointed tubercles bearing a black terminal spot.

From Dr. Annetrudi Kress: "Recently you asked in the O.N. for someone 
to identify Doto's. Whoever is volunteering to do the job will be busy 
for a long period because it is a very difficult group! Luise Schmekel 
and I finished a paper about 8 European species of the genus Doto and 
we hope it will be published in Malacologia before too long. After 
many years of collecting material in Naples and Plymouth we tried to 
compare the two localities and to give a full description of each 
species, its colour, shape and anatomy of the genital system. The most 
interesting fact probably is that D. pinnattifida from the Mediterranean 
is a different species from the one in the Atlantic. The Mediterranean 
one is now described as D. acuta.

The 470 citations in this issue bring this year's total to 900 
citations plus the few listed in the 95xx number series. These will 
be re-listed when I can manage the 1800 citations in between. The 
reduced-sized citations listed are not quite as easily readable but 


about twice as many citations per page are listed. I have completed 
all citations through KE and would be happy to receive any more complete 
or accurate citation information. I would also appreciate any additional 


citations which have not appeared. 


Sandra Crane and others in Canada are having huge difficulties 
with mail as a result of the extended postal strike in that area. Sandra 
will be leaving on 12 December for a trip to mexico and returning through 
Los Angeles, California around New Year's Day. She has been diving in 
the waters around Vancouver area and coming up with some "unknown" 
animals which she will be asking for help in identification. 


David Behrens has moved to the Baywood Park/Los Osos area near San 
Luis Obispo, California recently and is working as a biologist for PG&E. 
Would anyone knowing his current address please contact the editor? 


The "Bay Area Malacologists" are planning another annual meeting 
at Stanford University. This year's meeting will be held on 6 December, 
1975, The special theme for this year is Russian and Japanese litera- 
Sbhalciq 


As expected, the U.S. postal rates are increasing again this year 
for both domestic and foreign mailings. The O.N. is maintaining its 
subscription rates at $10.00 per year for individuals and $12.50 per 
year for institutions. These rates are higher than I would like to 
have them but still far below the cost-of similar special purpose, 
limited distribution publications. 


The papers listed for sale include almost all papers in my files. 
Any number not listed is probably not in my files and I would welcome 
the opportunity to borrow and microfilm clean originals. The papers 
will be returned with care. Please contact the editor. 


The editor will probably be moving to another place in Santa 
Maria in the next month or so. I will be advising all subscribers of 
my address as soon as I move. For the time being please continue to 
address all correspondence to 211 W. Orange, Apt. 3, Santa Maria, Ca- 
lifornia 93449. 


I wish a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all opisthobranch 
people everywhere! 


Mr. James Lance is recovering from serious burns caused by hot 
seawater. He should be able to return to work in early December. 
Best wishes for a spgedy recovery, Jim! 


Microfiche of the current volume of the ON should be included 
with this issue of the newsletter. In addition a short reprint of 
Dr. K.B. Clark should be included. I inadvertently failed to mail 
them out with the last mailing. 


I have not yet got my press operating but will still continue 
publishing as long as substantial interest in the ON continues.

DEVELOPMENTAL PATTERNS IN 
TROPICAL ATLANTIC NUDIBRANCHIA 
AND ASCOGLOSSA AND THEIR RELA- 
TION TO TROPHIC STABILITY. Kerry 
B. Clark, Mario Busacca*,and Andreas 
Goetzfried*. Florida Institute of Tech- 
nology, Melbourne, Fla. Florida nudi- 
branch molluscs show higher percentages 
of lecithotrophic and direct development, 
and also possess lower feeding specifi- 
city, than those of the boreal or temper- 
ate Atlantic fauna. The relationship is 
most evident among the Elysiidae which 
feed on perennial siphonaceous algae. 
Single species are able to retain chloro- 
plasts (measured as chlorophyll) from 
several genera of algae. Euryphagy and 
use of perennial algae as food are viewed 
as adaptations which stabilize popula- 
tions, decreasing the importance of a 
distributive larval stage. 

Three species of Elysia(E. papillosa, 
E. cauze, and E, tuca) produce eggs of 
a size normally indicating planktotrophic 
development, but absorb extrazygotic 
matter during development, permitting 
lecithotrophic or direct development.

Gary Williams has finished his M.A. (May, 1975) under Dr. Robert 
Beeman on the evolution of the opisthobranch nervous system and is 
presently working as coauthor with Dr. Beeman on the Opisthobranch/ 
marine pulmonate chapter for the Morris/Abbott book on Californian 
marine invertebrates. 


Terry Gosliner is at the University of New Hampshire working on 
his doctorate under Larry Harris. 


From Ian Loch: "As of late November, I will be at - 27 Cominos 
Place, Manunda, Cairns 4870, Australia. Probably will be only ther 
for a few months, but that address will find me when I move further, 
tentatively to Darwin. The opisthobranch collecting goes on steadily, 
with novel specimens still being found. In early December I'll be 
going to an Australian Museum workshop on Lizard Island and this should 
uield some interesting collecting over the two weeks, particularly if 
Bob Burn also makes it up there." A note from Ian Loch follows. 

"In the early hours of and August morning a 15 mm Chromodoris 
lineolata (Van Hasselt 1824) was eaten by a polyclad turbellarian, 45 
x 30 mm. The actual predation was not observed. Both specimens were 
in a small holding aquarium, and were observed in juxtaposition about 
11 p.m. on 20th August [1975]. At about 8 a.m. the following morning 
a large dark hump was noticed centrally in the flatworm and the chromo- 
dorid had vanished. A small dorsal slit in the flatworm allowed the 
extrusion of the partially digested body of the chromodorid, still re- 
cognizible by pieces of striped skin, although gross digestion was 
fairly well advanced. Although Chromodorts ltneolata is recorded on 
offshore reefs in Queensland (Thompson 1972) in my local experience it 
occurs on the coast and adjacent coastal islands. The specimens eaten 
came from Orpheus Island in the Palm group north of Townsville. As 
the flatworm came from a barrier reef, Michaelmas Reef, off Cairns, 
there is probably little natural contact between them and Chromodoris 
Lineolata would not form part of the flatworms natural diet. However, 
it is of interest to note that the polyclad does possess the ability 
to prey on nudibranchs. This would explain the disappearance of other 
small nudibranchs in the same aquarium during preceeding weeks." 


Gale Sphon has recently travelled to Manzanillo and Don Cadien 
got down to Point Loma in San Diego, California. Hans Bertsch and 
Sandra Crane made separate trips to Mexico during December. 


CHIRIBOTAN (Meaning Spondylus) is published by The Malacological 
Society of Japan and is issued quarterly, in Japanese. 


VoL. VITT(1):2, OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER January 1976 


From Dr. Kikutaro Baba: "During September 1967 Mr. (Now Dr.) L.G. 
Harris and his wife visited Japan and stayed at the Seto Marine Biolog- 
ical Laboratory. Baba spoke then with him. The two discussed the 
probable species of Phestilla of the Central and Western Pacific. Baba 
was given part of the specimens of Phesttlla collected by Harris from 
the depths off the shore of Seto (Pacific Coast of Middle Japan). Baba 
studied these anatomically and taxonomically, though he could not pre- 
pare a report until now. He wishes to make a full report some time in 
the future." 


Dr. A.J. Ferreira has just returned from a two week sojourn in 
Jamaica, Curagao, and Bonaire, collecting and taking a course in Div- 
ing Medicine. He found little in the way of opisthobranchs, except 
for a very interesting Chromodorid in Bonaire which may prove to be a 
new species. 


Peter Oringer has recently travelled to Los Angeles in conjunction 
with business and visited Howard Katzman. The editor has recently 
had conversations with Oringer, Katzman, Lance, and Newswanger. The 
editor also travelled with Stephen Newswanger to the Bay Area Malacolo- 
gists' meeting at Stanford University in early December, 1975. Some 
of the people at the meeting were A.M. Keen, W.A. Addicott, J.T. Smith, 
R. Stohler, J.T. Carlton, E. Coan, R. Talmadge, H. Bertsch, B. Roth, 
and S. Gray. Many examples of Russian and Japanese molluscan litera- 
ture were on hand and everyone got involved with exchanging information 
on how to obtain and translate needed papers in these two languages. 
Eugene Coan has agreed to gather and produce ‘a list of major literature 
citations for the attendees. Dr. A. Myra Keen related events of the 
Japanese Emperor, Hirihito's recent visit to the U.S.

Israeli scientist whose life, and the lives of whose parents, have 
been ruined as a result of my having been talented and promising enough 
to win a full scholarship from the Prime Minister's Office of the 
Israeli Government for doctorate studies in marine ecology in the U.S. 
I was forced to waste my scholarship on the resignations of my profes- 
sors, only to discover that there is no protection for the rights of 
Ph. D. students in this country, not even recognized foreign scientists 
and grantees of a friendly foreign government. All my attempts to ob- 
tain redress have led so far only to an endless run-around. I am 
writing this note in order to acquaint readers of OPISTHOBRANCH NEWS-

could not muster enough courage to even express concern over the 
matter. (signed) - R. Rosin.

Clayton Carlson writes from Guam: "I'm afraid we have done practically 
nothing worthwhile mentioning as far as the animals are concerned. 
Storms and regular work have pretty well slowed us down since the fall. 
We have just ended up with over 19" of rain for January, supposedly the 
first solid month of the dry season. We hope to try and settle down 
this spring so in a couple of months I may have some real news for~you." 


Sandra Crane made her trip to Mexico including time snorkeling in the

John Paige has finished his Master's which was entitled "Fhe Nudibranchs 
of Cedar Keys, Florida with Special Reference to the Life History and 
Ecology of Hypselodoris edenttculata." He is trying to find time to 
prepare manuscripts while working on his dissertaion. His problem 
includes the larval biology and metamorphosis of the sea hare, Bursatella 
leachtt plet. John has been able to secure metamorphosis from several 
individuals and is now experimenting with substrate selection and the 
effects of salinity and temperature on the larvae. 


From Dr. T. Gascoigne (14 York Grove, Peckham, London, S.E. 15, England): 
"T am soley a sacoglossan specialist. I retired from teaching at Alleyns 
School, Dulwich, at the age of 70.. This has given me leisure to write 
some papers. In three years I have published ten - the last one was a 
paper on *Stiligerid Reproductive Systems' and it should be in print this 
year - PROC. MALAC. SOC. AUSTRALIA. It owes a great deal to thé editor, 
Bob Burn, who generously provided me with specimens, suggested lines to 
follow, and improved iy taxonomy. Needless to say, Bob is not respon- 
sible for the errors or opinions -'these are mine! 

I am most interested in fine dissection and methods of mounting 
sacoglossan radulae. Here is a sample: 
Table Salt (NaCl). A saiine solution (1 gm NaCl in 100 ml of water) 
will act aS a Clearing agent for the buccal mass of the small sacoglos- 
san. It can then be mounted in 50% glycerol and the teeth can be seen 
clearly enough to measure them. If you use methylene Blue or Safranin 
O as a dissection stain. A saline solution will differentiate or ligh- 
ten the stain far better than acid alcohol which is often too drastic 
a solution. Should the larg: oviduct swell unduly during dissection 
try a hypertonic saline solution. ‘This will reduce the swelling and, 
if) the strength ws right, 1t wild jgel the mucus isorthat Tt ican tbelne- 
moved in chunks. Don't overdo the strength, for it can also ruin a 
dissection!" 


From Robert Burn: "In December 1975, Robert Burn was one of a party of 
Australian and overseas malacologists who participated in a molluscan 
workshop at the Lizard Island Research Station, North Queensland. Liz- 
ard Island is rather large, 2 miles by 2 miles, with a high rocky hill 
of 1200 feet on the northern side; it lies 50 miles north-east of Cook- 
town. The island offers an immense variety of habitats for investiga- 
tion, from rocky cliffs to sandy beaches, from fringing reefs to deep 
lagoon. Thus the party were able to indulge in a great variety of mol- 
luscan research: Winston Ponder (Australian Museum) worke’ on minute 
gastropods and commensal bivalves and gastropods, Jack Burch (Australian 
Museum) and Brian Smith (National Museum of Victoria) surveyed the land 
snail fauna, Barry Wilson (Western Australian Museum) studied state 
mussels and their specific relationships to various corals. Shirley 
Slack-Smith (Western Australian Museum) investigated the species and 
habitats of various tropical oysters for comparison with the fauna of 
northern Western Australia, Sir Maurice Yonge (University of Edinburgh) 
attended so as to complete aspects of giant clam research commenced in 
1928-1929 when he was leader of the Great Barrier Reef Expedition, Clyde 
Roper (Smithsonian Institution) studied tropical cephalopods, Brian 
Morton (University of Hong Kong) worked on bivalve anatomy and behaviour, 
and Robert Burn concentrated upon the tropical opisthobranch fauna.

(Been - continued from page 6) 


The party was ably supported by Phil Colman (Australian Museum) and Ian 
Loch as diver/collectors. 

In two weeks on the Island, 115 Species of opisthobranchs were col- 
lected and studied alive. They ranged in size from less than 1 mm long 
acochlidaceans to the giant 135mm long eolid, Myrrhine lingtcirrha Bergh, 
1905. The collection included 30 species of cephalaspideans with many 
species of Atys, Hamtnoea, Aglaja, Cheltdonura and Gastropteron, 20 
species of Sacoglossans among which were Julta exquitstta and 2 species 
of Bosellta, 25 species of dorids and 16 species of polycerids, and 9 
species of eolids. Aplysiids, pleurobranchs, large dorids, arminaceans 
and dendronotaceans were conspicuous by their absence. 

On earlier collections from the same island indications were that 
with sufficient collecting time and care at least 300 species of opis- 
thobranchs occur on and around Lizard Island. It is intended to publish 
a series of reports on the opisthobranchs of the island during the next 
few years. 

Following immediately upon the Lizard Island workshop, Robert Burn 
and family enjoyed Christmas holidays in Southern Victoria,at Apollo 
Bay in the cool temperate waters at the eastern end of Bass Strait. 

Good weather coupled with excellent low tides allowed for 45 opistho- 
branch species to be collected, including 6 species not previously found 
alive or new to science. Among these 6 species are the first southwes- 
tern Pacific Corambe,a Gymnodoris with tropical appearance and greatly 
reduced gills, a cuthonid eolid with only one ceras per liver branch, 

two species of Philine, and the peculiar diaphanid Austrodtaphana 
braztert with forked tail." - Robert Burn. 


Dave Mulliner (San Diego) is still working with geothermal and solar 
energy full time. He and Peg Mulliner hope to get to L.A. Bay, Mexico, 
during the May low tides. 


Henk Mienis says that the last (latest) issue of ARGAMON was mailed out

EDITOR'S NOTE 


With all of the moving and printing press problems I have been having 
things were in terrible shape, even before the U.S. Postal Service did 
me in. The OCTOBER, NOVEMBER, and DECEMBER issues of the ON were mailed 
together by printed matter rates about 18 December. As late as 9 Febru- 
ary, 1976, issues were still returned for insufficient postage set up 
under the rates which did not go into effect until 28 December! I do 
know that several have reached destinations in Europe and in Australia. 
Until such time as my printing press gets located and werking and other 
things settle down I will try to mail all foreign issues by Air Mail. 

I will also remail any issues returned by air mail. Ple se be patient 
about the issues 10-12 until about mid-March. Anyone still missing 
issues at that time should notify me and I will send duplicate sets by 
air. I am most sorry for any inconvience. 


Mr. Ron Russo, 3611 Victor, Pinole, CA 94564, is a new subscriber to 

the ON. He is particularly interested in the nudibranchs of the Central 
South Pacific around French Polynesia (Tahiti, Moorea, etc.). I hope 
that we will hear more from Ron in the future.

Ian Loch has written that he will not be going to Darwin. His address

Sydney 2000, Australia. Ian includes a note: "While at Lizard Island 
Research Station for the Australian Museum malacological workshop men- 
tioned in the January issue, a further instance of predation on opistho- 
branchs by flatworms was noted. 

A dive in Watsons Bay at 10-20 meters yielded a polyclad turbellar- 
ian and a small dark aglajid, both of which were unfamiliar to me, and 
which were placed in the same collecting bottle. About two hours later, 
while transferring specimens from bottles to aquaria, the aglajid was 
noticed missing, and the polyclad had a dark hump in its body. 

As both these specimens came from within yards of each other on a 
Sandy bottom, the opisthobranch could easily form part of the natural 
diet of the flatworm. This is reinforced by the fact that the attack 
took place in a relatively short time and thus was not the result of 
unnatural starvation in aquarium conditions." 


Roy Hughes' new address is 229 Belmont Street, Belmont, Massachusetts

She found numerous opisthobranch species at Nuevo San Carlos. 


J. Sherman Bleakney writes: " I have two students working on salt marsh 
sacoglossans. In early January we cut through 20 cm of ice over pools 
in the, Spartina marsh and found dozens of Alderia modesta in the 10 mm 
size range and quantities of freshly laid eggs. We are examining this 
species with E.M. techniques in order to determine the presence or ab- 
sence of living chloroplasts in their tissues. 

Several weeks later this same pool had Elysta echlorattea in pock- 
ets on the underside of the ice cover. They were beauties, 30 mm long 
and emerald green. It was just 10 years ago this month that Kani 
Bailey Meyer and I first chopped through nine inches of ice and dis- 
covered the winter wonderland of Canadian sacoglossans."

From Dr. M. Patricia Morse, Northeastern University, East Point, Nahant, 
Massachusetts 01903: I was very fortunate to have spent almost an hour 
with His Majesty, Empero. Hirohito of Japan at the Marine Biological 
Laboratory at Woods Hole. One of my graduate students, Tom Levesque 
and I prepazed a display of New England Nudibranchs. In addition a 
scanning electron micrograph of my new acochlidiacean was included in 

a bookiet prepared for him by the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. 
Also i designed a pin of a nudibranch feeding on a hydroid which was 
executed by Mrs. S. G. Panis, a famous Falmouth Silversmith and was 
presented to the koyal Household. 

My work is now on interstitial molluscs; this follows the excellent 
two-month t:ip to Brasil with Dr. Marcus and the preparations of a lot 
of comparative iia-erial. It would be nothing new for me to tell you 
that I had a super time with Dr. Marcus and I look forward to her stop- 
ing here in Boston when she takes her spring European trip. 


The editor's trip to Berkeley was quite enjoyable. Saw Jim Carlton, 
Hans Bertsch, Dr. Cadet Hand, Dr. R. Stohler, Allyn Smith, and other 
friends. Dr. Stohler will be making a trip to Switzerland in early 
March. 


Dr. Helen Hughes sent me a copy of The Royal Scottish Museum, The Mala- 
cological Society of London, and The Conchological Society of Great 
Britain and Ireland, SYMPOSIUM ON "SEA-SLUGS AND LAND-SLUGS" Provisional 
Programme. The meetings will be held from Thursday, Marc. 25- Sunday, 
March 28, 1976, at the Royal Scottish Museum. Thursday w_1l be dedicated 
to a Curator's Collaquium. Friday will be marine slugs; Saturday will 

be land slugs; and Sunday will be excursions to collecting areas. 

Friday morning at 0940 hours, Dr. R. C. Brace (University of Oxford): 
"Functional anatomy of the mantle cavity and columellar muscle of tecti- 
branchs, and evolution of opisthobranch organization." 1010-1630 hours:

Type Specimens of Opisthobranchia 
(Including Pyramidellidae) in the 
Zoological Museum of the Hebrew 
University of Jerusalem 2. Type 
Specimens of Taxa Described by J. 
C. Melvill and H.B. Preston. 


by 
Henk K. Mienis 


Several type specimens of taxa belonging to the Opisthobranchia 
(including Pyramidellidae) described by Melvill and Preston are present 
in the mollusc collection of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Three 
samples of taxa named by Melvill and one sample of a species described 
by Preston are present in the Arthur Blok collection. The latter forms 
part of the HUJ-collection since 1974. Blok received the Preston sam- 
ple in 1935 when he bought the remaining stock of molluscs from Preston 
after the latter ceased dealing in shells. Two samples of taxa named 

.by Preston are in the former collection of the Italian malacologist 
Giorgio S. Coen. ‘He probably received these specimens directly from 
Preston since he stood in good contact with the latter. Preston even 
named several species after Coen. 

In the following catalogue the system used in the first part of 
this serial of informative papers is followed.

Ep1tor’s Note 


The editor's home at 140 Cuyama Avenue, Pismo Beach, burned to the ground 
on 7 April, 1976, with no injuries to family but great loss of property 
and equipment. Luck was with the editor and the majority of his books 

on mollusca and the back issues of the O.N. were all with him in Santa 
Maria, but several large bibliographic card files, almost all of the 
printing equipment, printing supplies, several hundred books, and ali 
personal clothing and household goods were lost. 

The editor will do his best to keep issues of the O.N. as regular as 
possible by using commercial printers but some delays are inevitable. 


Shelagh Doonan, University of Aberdeen, Department of Microbiology, 
Marischal College, Aberdeen, AB9 1AS, Scotland, is interested in algal/ 
invertebrate symbiosis especially chloroplast retention in ascoglossans. 


The editor recently received a six-page catalog of malacological books 
for sale by Dr. W. Backhuys, Oudorpweg 12, Rotterdam-3016, The Nether- 
lands. The majority of the papers are land and freshwater mollusks.

Thanks to Philippe Bouchet, Cecilia Bridges, Kikutar6d Baba, and others 
who have sent reprints and information for the O.N. With all of the 
Problems I have been encountering lately it is more important than ever 
that all authors send a reprint, or at the least, a bibliographical 
eitation,,, to) the editor, for anclusion in) thesO.N. listings. BP iytry to 
see the major malacological journals but it is utterly impossible to 
see all of the journals which include molluscan papers infrequently. 


Dr. Baba did not take reprints of 9647 (Cerberilla). He has been work- 
ing on Nembrotha along with I. Hamatani and has four manuscripts (two 
with Hamatani) under submission for publication in the near future. 


Dr. H.K. Mienis promises to send along a third note on types of Tiberi, 
Brugnone, Brusina and Bivona. 


Eveline marcus will be in Germany from 10 April to 20 May (c/o -Mr. 
Eawald du Bois-Reymond, Dttrerstr. 22, D56, Wuppertal 1, West Germany), 
and from about 1 June thru mid-July (ie - Mrs. M.J. BuEker POR BOx 
361, NDG Montreal H4A 3P7, Canada). 


The WSM annual meeting will be held at the Asilomar Conference Grounds, 
Pacific Grove, California, from June 23 - 27, 1976. I am going to make 
a special effort to be there and I hope that all opisthobranch people 
who can be there will make the trip. 


C.J. Risso-Dominguez has published an article in Stain Technology, Vol. 
51(1), January 1976, on nudibranch vital staining but I have not seen 
the entire citation. I would appreciate if someone would send me the 
complete information. Risso-Dominguez will not have reprints. 


Eveline Marcus writes (11 April) from Germany that she has met Dr. H. 
Engel and Dr. Coomans, and will see Dr. Lemche later in Kopenhagen. 
Courtesy of Dr. Marcus - "The Malacological Society of London held its 
March Meeting at the Royal Scottish Museum in Edinburgh, from March 25- 
28. The first day was a Curators' Colloquium, in which I @id not take 
part. The second day was devoted to the zoogeography of Marine Slugs, 
introduced by Maurice Yonge and Thomas E. Thompson. The talks were - 

in their sequence - by E. Marcus, D. Franz, K.B. Clark, P. Bouchet (in 
English), J. Tardy, M. Edmunds, M.P Morse, and L. Harris, and were 
mainly on Atlantic Opisthobranchs. The third day we heard some anatomi- 
cal and functional papers, read by R.C. Brace, A. Cook, N.d. Evans, and 
Shelagh Smith. All afternoon we had a lively discussion, illustrated 
with beautiful slides, which I left at 11:00PM. In the Sunday excursion 
Dr. Sigurdsson brought me 12 living Jorunna! I did not take part in the 
collecting trip but the meeting was an excellent occasion to meet old 
friends, to discuss common problems, and to establish new contacts."

Eveline Marcus writes that she has sent reprints of her Jorunna 
paper without dedications as the mail problems have become so bad in 
past months that every printed matter package is opened and charged 
at first class rates if ANY writing is found. 


Dr. Larry Harris will be in California until about 15 July while 
on sabbatical leave. He is working with Avolidia versus anemones. 
His temporary address is: 181 Oceanview Avenue, Pacific Grove, Cali- 
eOraigte SSS) 


Hans Bertsch is making progress on his Ph.D. Thesis while still 
living in Berkeley. He hopes to finish writing his thesis this sum- 
mer. 


Howard Katzman iS maintaining nudibranchs in his marine aquarium 
and taking color slides of the animals as time permits. 


Don and Kathy Cadien are buried in literature which they are try- 
ing to sort and file. They plan to attend the June W.S.M. Meetings. 


Dr. Antonio Ferreira spent three weeks in Samoa (American and 
Western) and in Fiji, during March. Collecting was very productive 
from the point of view of chitons but not so for nudibranchs. He 
did come across a number of beasts which he was totally unfamiliar 
with. He has good color slides of the animals. Samoa and Fiji were 
great - water temperature 82°F+. Tony drove from Suva to Nadi stop- / 
ping along the way to collect; and several of the local small islands/.~ 
He is planning to spend about two weeks in the Caribbean during May 
at Bimini, Florida Keys and perhaps Virgin Gorde. Dr. Ferreira would 
like to contact someone in East - South Africa and someone in New 
Zealand to arrange collecting trips to those areas. 


Pete and Sue Oringer became the proud parents of a baby girl, Jill,

James Lance and Steve Long travelled to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, 
on May 10th and collected the Nyarit coast on several occasions with 
little luck. The beaches were very dry with little algal growth on 
the rocks. To make matters worse, a jetty was under construction 
in the middle of one of the finest rocky intertidal areas and dump 
trucks were down on the beach picking up tons of the best turnable 
rocks for roadwork. Even with the poor collecting two specimens of 
different unknown species were found.

Dr. Eveline Marcus will be in Montreal, Canada from about 1 June 
through 15 July and may be reached in care of Mrs. M.J. Burke, P.O. 
Box 361, NDG Montreal H4A 3P7, Canada). Reprints and most mail 
should continue to be sent to her Brazil address. 


Sandra (Crane) Millen is planning to attend the Western Society 
of Malacologists meetings in June and will be driving and camping 
down the outer coast of Oregon and Northern California. She will 
be willing to attempt collection of animals along the way if anyone 
has specific interests. Her address is: Department of Zoology, 
University of British Columbia, 2075 Wesbrook Place, Vancouver, B.C., 
Canada, V6T 1W5. Sandra could also bring specimens of many of the 
northern species if desired. She also intends to bring her photo 
book of unknown species for help with identifications. 


Thanks for the many expressions of sympathy about my recent 
fire. I am very thankful that no one was hurt. The loss was pri- 
marily of replaceable items and most family photos and records were 
safe along with all of my opisthobranch literature except one large 
card file which was at least safe on film.

be coming back to the U.S. this fall. He is currently at the Max- 
Planck-Institute ftir Verhaltensphysiologie, 8131 Seewiesen, Starn- 
berg (Obb.), West Germany. He is currently investigating the cen- 
tral and peripheral nervous system involvement in head grooming be- 
havior in the praying mantis and the status of this behavior as a 
fixed action pattern. Upon returning to the U.S. he hopes to work 
with the opisthobranchs and with further investigations of their 
behavior and neurophysiology.

The PROCEEDINGS OF THE MALACOLOGICAL SOCIETY OF LONDON are soon 
to be renamed to JOURNAL OF MOLLUSCAN SCIENCE. The abstracts of the 
recent symposium at Scotland will appear in the "PROCEEDINGS" or in 
the "JOURNAL", I don't know which. 


From David R. Franz: "As you know, the Joint Meeting of the 
Malacological Society of London and the Conchological Society of Great 
Britain and Ireland was devoted to a symposium on the zoogeography 
of sea slugs. The meetings were held in Edinburgh from 25 March 
through 27 March, culminating in a field trip to local collecting 
Sites on 28 March. The nudibranch sessions were chaired admirably 
by Sir Maurice Yonge and Tom Thompson. 

(Continued next page) 


Vo. .VITIG-6):20  OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER May/June 1976. 


FRANZ NOTE CONTINUED FROM PREVIOUS PAGE. 


"A particularly valuable feature of the symposium was the in- 
formal slide show which continued over several days (and nights). 
Nudibranch workers on both sides of the Atlantic (and Channel) had 
an opportunity to compare notes, species and experiences. For 
those of us who have labored in the vineyards of the NW Atlantic, 
the knowledge that our reduced nudibranch fauna has permitted us a 
more ecological and experimental approach does not quite alleviate 
the feelings of envy of the rich and diverse fauna available to our 
British and French colleagues. 

"It was particularly rewarding to have Phil Bouchet and Jean 
Tardy participating with us and representing the vigorous interests 
of the French community of malacologists. And, of course, the 
presence of Eveline Marcus was especially delightful. It was defin- 
itely a meeting to be savoured and remembered for years to come. I 
know that I express the feelings of the North American contingent 
in hoping that we will not wait too many years before arranging a 
return performance; and as a special message to out British and 
continental friends - the airplanes fly in this direction also, and 
you are all welcome (even in a Concorde) ." 


The Western Society of Malacologists' annual meetings will be 
held from 23 - 27 June, 1976, at Asilomar State Conference Grounds, 
Pacific Grove, California. I hope to see many of the opisthobranch 
people there, as usual. Anyone coming from Southern California, 
or from elsewhere via Southern California, is welcome to stop off 
in Santa Maria and see me. I am not yet positive whether or not I 
will be able to get time off from work to attend the meetings. 

The following opisthobranch happenings are scheduled for the 
WSM meetings: Wednesday, 1930 hrs. - Clayton Carlson: An Overview 
of the Opisthobranch Fauna of Guam (one hour slide show)/ Friday, 
0900 hrs. - Terrence Gosliner: Hawaiian Eolid Nudibranchs/ 1410 hrs. 
- Larry Harris: Ecological Observations on Four Tritonid Nudibranchs 
Occurring in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands./ Saturday, 0930 hrs. —- 
John K. Allen: Function of Nematocysts in Eolid Nudibranchs./ 1035 
hrs. - Gordon A. Robilliard: Coryphella fusca: The Complete Predator 
(Nudibranchia: Mollusca). 


Ep1tor’s Notes 


Thanks to Marcus, Harris, Mienis, Roginskaya, and others who 
have recently sent reprints and other information for inclusion in 
the ON. I am having a terrible time trying to find citations for 
papers unless they are from one of the major molluscan journals. 
Please continue (or start if you don't now) sending reprints of papers 
as they appear and as soon as possible. 


Kristin, my 7-year-old daughter is still very interested in used 
foreign postage stamps and would appreciate any which are sent. 


I am preparing an updated opisthobranch worker address list for 
inclusion in an upcoming issue. Please send any recent changes soon! 


In an attempt to gather more useful information for opisthobranch 
workers I would appreciate information on reader's card file types 
and card sizes for any opisthobranch information.

The Western Society of Malacologists' annual meetings were really 
enjoyable this year. They were held back at the Asilomar State 
Conference Grounds in the Monterey area and some of the opisthobranch 
people in attendance included: Hans Bertsch, Melissa Barbour, David 
Shonman, Gary McDonald, Jim Carlton, Steven Long, Sandra Crane Millen, 
Clayton Carlton, Chris Kitting, Larry Harris, Stephen Newswanger, 
Terry Gosliner, John K. Allen, Don Cadien, James Nybakken and Dave 
Mulliner. I hope that I didn't forget anyone - it seemed like there 
were many, many branchers there. As usual we had at least two slide 
shows and did a lot of talking. 


The opisthobranch bibliography card file is with Don Cadien who is 
cross-checking and re-typing citations. The six thousand plus ci-

types maintained on opisthobranchia with the hope that some of the 
information may be combined to obtain large data bases. Information 
is needed on the types of files maintained: subject area and scope, 
number of cards in the file, card size and format, recording method 
(pencil, ink, typewritter), and an estimate of how complete the file 
is for the area covered. Also, tell if you now use the file. 


Vol.VIII (7-8) :22. OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER July/August 1976. 


Please send samples to the editor of each type of index card entry. 
It may be possible to standardize to some extent indexing methods 
for better exchange of information and I would hope the samples and 
other information can contribute toward this goal. 


From Dr. Henning Lemche (Universitets Zoologiske Museum, Universi- 
tetsparken 15, DK-2100, K¢gbenhavn @, Danmark) "I have in the last 
years been studying opisthobranchs at three visits to Western Ire- 
land (July 1974, May 1975, and March/April 1976) and one to Bergen 
in Norway (August 1975). But my travelling activity is now to be 
cut down because it has become difficult to raise funds for them - 
and then also because I have had to realize that I am no longer a 
young man but a retired person who has to obey his heart when it is 
telling me to keep down my activities to something close to that of 
other people. Most annoying! 

I have now been relieved of: a larger MS on very deep sea animals 
and can concentrate more on my two remaining topics: animal phylo- 
geny and opisthobranchs. As to the latter, I have now a MS in print 
on six new species of Doto from the British Isles (Plymouth, Firth 
of Clyde, and W. Ireland). This years study has added still another 
tow for later publication. They have all hitherto been referred to 
as Doto coronata. As I have another five species from Scandinavia 
to take out of that species complex, it appears that the published 
records on "Doto coronata" are to be considered utterly difficult 
to interpret. I learn that studies of the Doto's of California are 
to be initiated now, and I should like to tell those involving them- 
selves in that problem that I have collected - and made pictures of 
living specimens, photographs etc. of several species from there, 
also of the spawn which, to my surprise is quite different in shape 
from that of the Northern Atlantic ones. I am most willing to advise 
anybody who wants guidance in how to go on in such a study. 

My stack of sheets with water colours of Northern Atlantic and 
Arctic species of opisthobranchs now has increased to 117, all sel- 
€cted so that the species drawin by Alder & Hancock have been avoided 
except in special cases. I am most interested in receiving live 
specimens of rare species for drawing, and I can tell that a young 
colleague returned to Copenhagen from Disko, Greenland, in November, 
1975, and presented me with a thermoflask containing specimens of 
six species, mostly collected in April/May but still alive. Five 
of them were used for preparing water colours, as they were a 
Dendronotus n.sp., an Alderta harvardensts (proving that this is a 
good species), an Aretadalarta (never before described from live 
specimens), and two species of Coryphella of which one was dotted 
all over the cerata with white dots (has anybody seen such a creature 
before?) ani I am not quite sure whether the other is not also most 
interesting. The white-dotted Coryphella have been reared from a 
planctonic larva (the collector, Mr. O. Norden Andersen, is no 
specialist in the opisthobranchs, and so he must be excused for not 
knowing that he was doing the impossible and ought to have failed!)."

Things are still moving slowly this year with very few inputs from 
opisthobranch people. I have sold most of my opisthobranch papers 
and will be making microfiche of many molluscan works available as 
soon as I can purchase some camera and duplicating equipment. I 
still need to get a printing press set up and buy another plate- 
maker. I hope that readers will bear with me for a while yet. 


The preparation of the newsletter is much easier when I have plenty 
of citations and other information to work with. Please send notes 
and citations whenever possible.

The Sixth European Malacological Congress of the UNITAS MALACO- 
LOGICA EUROPAEA will be held in the week 15-20 August, 1977, in the 
Free University, Amsterdam. This congress, under the auspices of a 
Comité d'Honneur consisting of Dr. Vera Fretter (U.K.), Dr. A. Riedel 
(Poland), Dr. K.M. Wilbur (U.S.A.), Dr. J. Lever and Dr. €.P. Raven 
(both from the Netherlands), is intended to be a meeting place of 
everybody engaged in or interested in any branch of malacology. 

Apart from the usual items on the programme such as a meeting of the 
European Invertebrate Survey, field trips, and the General Assembly 
of the U.M.E., there will be twelve main lectures by specialists in 
the various fields. Ten of those have already consented to read a 
Major paper, viz., Dr. E.A. Malek (U.S.A.) on the control of snail 
hosts of schistosomiasis, Dr. J. Joosse (Netherlands) on the endo- 
crinology of molluscs, Dr. J. Knudsen (Denmark) on deep sea bivalves, 
Dr. J. Lever (Netherlands) on torsion in gastropods, Dr. A.S.M. 
Saleuddin (Canada) on shell formation, Dr. A. Solem (U,S.A.) on zoo- 
geography of land gastropods, Dr. N.H. Verdonk (Netherlands) on sym- 
metry and asymmetry in the embryonal development of molluscs, Dr. M. 
J. Wells (U.K.) on brain and behaviour of cephalepods, Sir Maurice 
Yonge (U.K.) on cementation in bivalves, and Dr. A. de Zwaan (Nether- 
lands) on the energy metabolism in molluscs. There will also be so- 
called 'poster sessions" in order to present material and data instead 
of contributed papers, for which latter also provision will be made. 

All malacologists, i.e., everybody working with molluscs, whether 
in a professional capacity or not, are invited to attend the Amster- 
dam congress. For further information write to Sixth European Mala- 
cological Congress, c/o Congresbureau van de Vrije Universiteit, De 
Boelelaan 1105, Amsterdam, Holland. 

The fees will be as follows: Hfl. 100.- for full congress members 
(approximately US $40), Hfl. 20.- for associate members (e.g., accom- 
panying ladies), and Hfl. 50.- for student members.

A Review of the Occurrence of 
Indo-Pacific Opisthobranchs in 
the Mediterranean Sea. 


by 
Henk K. Mienis 


Since the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 quite a number of 
Indo-Pacific molluscs has succeeded in invading the Mediterranean. 
Some are only known from a single record, but of others firmly es- 
tablished colonies are present along the Mediterranean coast of 
Israel. Several species are even slowly but steadily spreading to 
other parts of the Mediterranean Sea. 

Extensive reviews of most of the published data on migration of 
Indo-Pacific Opisthobranchs are however spread over several smaller 
papers. A study of the literature revealed that up till now seven 
Opisthobranchs have moved from the Indo-Pacific to the Mediterranean 
Sea. A review of the first records of these species from Mediterran- 
ean countries is given below. 


1. Chrysalltda maya (Hornung & Merod, 1924) 
Israel (van Aartsen, 1963); Turkey (van Aartsen, 1974) 

2. Cyltehna gtrardt (Audouin, 1827) 
Israel (Mienis, in press). 

3. Aplysia parvula Guilding in Mérch, 1863 
Israel (Eales, 1970); Turkey (Swennen, 1961 as A. punctata); 
Cyprus (Eales, 1970); Malta (Bebbington, 1970). Although a 
circumglobal species it is considered by Eales an immigrant: from 
the Indo-Pacific. 

4. Aplysta jgultana Quoy & Gaimard, 1832 
Israel (Eales, 1970). Also a circumglobal species considered by 
Eales an immigrant from the Indo-Pacific. 

5. Notarchus tndteus Schweigger, 1820 
Israel (Eales, 1970). 

6. Bursatella leaecht savtgnitana (Audouin, 1827) 
Israel (O'Donoghue & White, 1940); Turkey (Swennen, 1961); Malta 
(Bebbington, 1970). 

7. Berthella cttrina (Rltippell & Leuckart, 1828) 
Israel (Eales, 1970). 


Without doubt we may expect further records in the future.

My daughter, Kristin, is really enjoying the foreign postage stamps. 
Thanks to all of you who have been sending them. 


Dr. Riccardo Cattaneo, Istituto di Anatomia Comparata, dell'Univer- 
sita di Genova, Via Balbi, 5, 16126 Genova, Italy, is interested in 
Opisthobranchs and has recently corresponded with the editor. 


Judith Hunter writes that New Guinea is to have an issue of stamps 
illustrating four nudibranchs next year. They are to be reseased in 
October 1977. She also mentions a work on opisthobranchs for which I 
would appreciate a complete citation: FEZ SANCHEZ, SIRO DE, 1974.

some collecting of opisthobranchs off the coast south of Morro Bay. 


From Eveline Marcus: "I met the British people, especially Malcolm 
Edmunds, during my recent European trip. Many evenings were spent 
viewing slides and discussing opisthobranchs. Some of the other I 
met were Coomans, Westheide, Luise Schmekel, Remane, Lemche, and 
Hanne Just(who is studying opisthobranchs with Lemche). A week was 
spent with Patricia Morse in Nahant, where there are many opisthobranch- 
iologists, and a visit to Alan Kuzirian, Durham, New Hampshire, looking 
at Coryphella. I visited the Smithsonian with Rehder, Rosewater, and 


Ron Larson. I was accompanied by Rosalie Vogel who is finishing her 
thesis on the development of Dortopsilla pharpa at Gloucester Point, 
Virginia. In Miami I only collected two Bosellta mareust and some 


Elysta. The rest of my friends are not interesting for an Opisthobranch 
Newsletter, they work Turbeliaria, crustaceans, or octocorals." 
Eveline sent partial listings of four papers on Opisthobranchs which 
have either recently appeared or will soon appear. I will list them

From Gale Sphon: "For several years now I've been thinking about 
going back to Cambria on a collecting trip. I've finally set a date 
for it and would like to issue an invitation to all 'Branchers to join 
us. The dates are Saturday, October 23 and Sunday, October 24, 1976. 
The tides are late afternoon (3:15 and 4:05 pm) and the tides are 
both -1.0. I shall be making my headquarters at the Cambria Pines 
Lodge and as we shall be getting in rather late on Friday evening, 
anyone who is interested in going can contact me there anytime after 
10:00 am Saturday morning as where to meet, etc." 

From Sandra Millen Crane: "I am slowly revising my manuscript but 
sinch I had to move labs at work, I haven't got much done. Things 
have just started to settle down now that classes have started. 

I would like you to put a request in the next O.N. for slides to 
be used in my Guide Book. The slides chosen will be purchased by the 
B.C. Provincial Museum for a price of approximately $20.00 each. All 
slides used will be acknowledged, the unselected slides will be re- 
turned. 

Photographs of the following animals are especially needed: Cadlina 
flavomaculata, Acanthodoris brunnea, Latla cockerelli (Northern form), 
Corambe pactfica, Dendronotus dallt, Dendronotus rufus, Dendronotus 
subramosus, Cephalopyge trematotdes, Fiona pitnnata, Cuthona concinna, 
Trinchesta albocrusta, Elysta hedgpethi, Hermaeitna smithi, Olea 
hansineensts, Hermaea vancouverensts. 

Photographs of other Opisthobranchs found in British Columbia will 
be considered. Please send slides directly to Ms. Sandra Millen 
Crane, Department of Zoology, University of British Columbia, 2075

Jim Lance recently made a trip up to Oregon and collected numerous 
localities from Walport to Point Fairs. He also got together with 
Jefferson Gonor at Newport, Oregon. Lance mand another trip recently 
to the coastline south of Morro Bay, California, to study birds and 
Opisthobranchs. The area is some of the finest collecting grounds 
remaining in California. 


Catherine Engel has moved from Santa Barbara to work with a firm

I would appreciate all correspondence be sent addressed to my home 
address: Steven J. Long/OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER, 211 W. Orange, Apt. 
#3, Santa Maria, California 93454. This is especially important for 
journals and printed matter as the forwarding postage costs are 
terrible. I have a feeling that many articles are getting lost between 
the old 110 Cuyama address and here since there is not even a build- 
ing at 110 Cuyama after the fire.

papers are wanting. 

Can you find out, how Swainson in 1840 called the genus of his 
"Elysta" ornata? The genus was, as far as I can remember, named by 
Risso, 1818, but Swainson used an other name. He has a genus 
Thallepus, but whether that is his ornata, I cannot find out. (Treat. 
Malac., 196:339, is an indication I received.) 

Is it possible to get the description of Quoy & Gaimard, 1832:211, 
pl. 15, £. 19-20, of Onehitdetla tnetsa, collected on the Voyage de 
découvertes de l'Astrolabe. Joe Rosewater has been collecting on 
Ascension, whence it came, and has brought several specimens, and I 
would like to compare them. Hoffmann, 1927, synonymizes it, without 
having seen them, with tndolens from Brazil. My husband was more 
careful and did not want to identify them, before tncisa had been 
studied. Now I can do that if I can get the Quoy & Gaimard." 


Eveline Marcus is working on a listing of all the western Atlantic 


warm water Opisthobranchs, about 260 species. She is also waiting 
for some reprint sets before mailing out packages.

PERSONAL NoTES 


Sheldon Zack will be remaining in Germany until the Spring of 
1977. At that time he will return to the U.S.A. and attempt to find 
a permanent research-teaching position in Behavioral Biology. I am 
certain that he would appreciate information on possible job openings 
in his field. 


From Ian Loch: "Returned from a field trip to the Torres Strait 
which yielded few opisthobranchs, and those were mostly common 
Queensland species. Only one Chromodoris and a Stiligerish species 
new to me. We worked the western islands of the strait and generally 
they were like Queensland mainland and coastal islands with a fauna 
to match, not as rich as the Barrier Reef fauna. Quite a variety of 
Onehtdtum around the mangroves, however, which yielded most of the 
more interesting material of the trip. Still havent managed to set 
up an aquarium system, as I've been spending too much time in the 
field over the past few months. 

Today I watched a hungry aplysiid eat a bit of oyster being fed 
to other animals. Who says aquarium behavior is abnormal?" 


The Western Society of Malacologists announces a student research 
grant of $500.00. The grant will be awarded to an undergraduate of 
recent graduate for the academic year 1977-1978. The grant is offer- 
ed to initiate or further research concerned with molluscs, in sys- 
tematics, biology, ecology, paleontology, anthropology, or related 
fields. To obtain details and application forms write: James T. 
Carlton, Department of Geology, University of California at Davis, 
Davis, California 95616. 


From STERKIANA (September 1976) comes a sad note that Allyn 
Goodwin Smith died during the week of August 16, 1976. This isa 
most sad loss for malacology as Allyn was one of the kindest and 
most dilligent men I knew. 


The same issue of STERKIANA notes that Auréle La Rocque will 
cease publication of STERKIANA with number 70. The remaining issues 
will be double numbers . Rising postal rates make it almost imposs- 
ible to continue publishing any type of periodicals and Dr. La Rocque 
will give up after 17 years of publication. 


I have brought my opisthobranch bibliographic card file back to 
Santa Maria after receiving quite a bit of help from Don Cadien. I 
will attempt to retype and cross check the citations as quickly as 
possible in order to be able to provide a film alphabetical list as 
soon as I can. I appreciate the help that Henning Lemche, Don Cadien, 
Hans Bertsch, and others have given me with this project. Please 
continue to send corrections and additions to me as they come up. 


Please send me address updates and information on opisthobranch 
people not listed in the current address list. I am certain that 
a few of the people have moved but do not have beeter addresses than 
those given in the list. 


I am having trouble with citations as several of my journals have 
been missing for some time now. Please send complete citations and 
reprints whenever possible for any opisthobranch papers.

$10.00 per year for current years and $5.00 per year for back volumes

I have moved three times since my last edition got out and have settled 
in a house with attendant mortgage, yardwork, and repairs to keep me 
busy in my spare time. I have more room to work on the OPISTHOBRANCH 
NEWSLETTER and I hope to be able to get my printing press up and run- 
ning before too many more weeks pass. My apologies to everyone incon- 
vienced by the slow responses I have given in the past few months. I 
still have a lot of sorting out to do but hope things will settle down 
soon. My permanent address is now:

From Kerry B. Clark: "I've accidentally discovered a technique for col- 
lection of rare opisthobranchs. In experiments on long-term culture 
of sacoglossans, we have been holding Caulerpa, Halimeda, Pentcillus, 
Uelotea, and Avrainvillea in 100-gallon tanks with subgravel filters 
in my backyard. After about 4 weeks, I found large specimens of 6 
Species of Sacoglossa, Dolabrifera, Spuritlla, and others, though none 
were visible initially. There propably would have been more animals, 
but the algae were allowed to become anoxic during a long trip from the 
Florida Keys. 

Apparently, those juveniles contained in the algae grow rapidly 
to visible size under aquarium conditions. Last spring, we had small 
(5-6mm) Aplysta and Bursatella grow to 5-7cm in only two weeks when 
kept in 10-gallon aquaria containing multiple algal foods. I suspect 
these results apply only to tropical and subtropical species, but this 
information may be helpful to those workers who have access to tropical 
species." 


The Bay Area Malacologists plan a meeting on the 12th of February from 
0930 to 1630 hours at the U.S. Geological Survey in Menlo Park, Calif- 
ornia. The Library Conference Room is the location for the meeting 
and all interested malacologists are invited to attend. 


Vole) VDE D (i2))238.. OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER December 1976. 


Manuel Ballesteros Vazquez, Departamento de Zoologia, Facultad de Bio- 
logia, Universidad de Barcelona, Barcelona-7, Spain, is working on the 
anatomy and histology of nudibranchs. 


Joandoménec Ros i Aragones is working with defense mechanisms and 
strategies in Opisthobranchs. 


Mike Spieth has moved to: 24588 University Avenue, Apartment A, Loma 
Linda, California 92354. He writes: "I am writing (or would like to 

at least) a paper on the nudibranchs of the Mendocino Coast, especially 
around the Van Damme - Mendocino - Fort Bragg area and would like to 
know if any other papers have been written on this subject. Also, I 
would like to know where to find the most recent distribution list for 
nudibranchs of the coasts from Mexico to Alaska. I would really like 
to correspond with anyone having done work on this area. I spent 4 
years collecting there and would like to make sure my list is complete. 


The Western Society of Malacologists tenth annual meeting will be held 
June 15-18, 1977, at Kellogg West, Center for Continuing Education, 
California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, California. The pro- 
gram will include contributed papers, symposia, exhibits, and study 
workshops and a shell auction. 


J.A. Ortea, Universidad de Oviedo, Facultad de Ciencias, Departamento 
de Zoologia, Norena, Spain, is interested in opisthobranchs. 


My thanks to S. Zack, J. Ros, K. Baba, E. Marcus, H. Bertsch, P. Bouchet, 
.M. Edmunds, C. Risso-Dominguez, and others who have recently sent in- 
formation and reprints to me. Thank you all also for recent stamps 

which have arrived. 


Piero Piani's correct mailing address is: P.O. Box 2207, Bologna E.L., 
Italy. 


The Zoological Society of London has written me stating that no micro- 
fiche editions of ZOOLOGICAL RECORD are currently available. Recent 
advertizements for such editions are merely to check out interest of 
potential users. 


Eveline Marcus writes that she has been appointed a co-editor of the 
Studies of the Neotropical Fauna and Environment which has taken up a 
good bit of her time. On the newsletter addresses, Miss Roberta J. 
Imrie has married and is now Mrs. Imrie Griffiths; the rest of her 
address remains the same. Eveline's request for a copy of the Quoy & 
Gaimard paper brought answers from Lemche, Bouchet, Wawra, Carlson, 
Hunter, and Kathie May (British Museum) . 

In November, she had the proofs of her old Tornattna paper, that 
she has been working on since 1970. It comes as a supplement to the 
now "JOURNAL OF MOLLUSCAN STUDIES" in December. She will not have 
reprints, so people wanting "On the genus TJornatina and related forms," 
must order it from the Society. It treats 10 species anatomically 
with 88 figures of animals from South and North America, Africa, and 
some Pacific Islands, with a new species roZleri and a new subgenus, 
on about 40 pages. She does not know the price. A small collection 
of Calypso (ship) opsithobranchs is ready for press, and another paper, 
and then she wants to have a bit of rest. 


December 1976. OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER Wowk Watitse (12) 2 3)e 


So many people have written to me or spoken to me asking about the fate 
of the MOLLUSCAN DIGEST which I was associated with several years ago 
that I feel a note is required! The MOLLUSCAN DIGEST is alive and 
getting well! Jack Brookshire took on a huge task trying to keep the 
Digest going and has been able to get out one large double issue about 
four months ago. He has kept careful track of paid subscribers and 
will continue to mail to them.as issues are completed. The address is 
still 2962 Balboa Avenue, Oxnard, CA 93030. 


From P. Bouchet: "After a short excursion into the prosobranchs, I am 
coming back to some opisthobranch problems. I have been working on the 
genus Ringitcula in the eastern Atlantic: there are not as many species 
as you could believe from the literature! Until now, I have evidence 
of only 4 species (2 shallow and 2 deep water species) in the whole 
eastern Atlantic, including the Mediterranean. I still have to examine 
some types before I publish anything and will probably include the 
western Atlantic species at the same time. If anybody knows material 
Of Ringtcula I could include in my revision, please let me know." 


From Roy Hughes: "A change of address is necessary. I have accepted 
a post-doctoral appointment here at Harbor Branch for the next year. 
I will be working on wood-boring bivalves of the genus Martesia, con- 
centrating on larval development and metamorphosis. I will still be 
looking at opisthobranchs as I discover them, but there are others 
working that subject in the area, and it will be only a pastime for me 
this year.

Steve, Thanks for running the note re The WSM Student Grant in the last

From Eveline Marcus: "I received some Onchtdella from Ascension from 
Joe Rosewater, and the study for classification made a review of the 
Atlantic species necessary, as the last monograph, by Hoffmann, 1928, /& 


has lumped many insufficiently described species. I am interested in |= 
preserved specimens of the West African species of Plate (1893) and fe 
Gabe & Prenant (1951, 1955) (aecrensis, pachyderma, maculata, monodt, \e 


& souerbet) [EDITOR NOTE - I could not be certain of spelling] There \% 
are 2 old names of Mediterraneans: Peronia parthenopeta Delle Chiaje, % 


Vol.VIII(12) :40. OPISTHOBRANCH NEWSLETTER December 1976. 


MARCUS - CONTINUED FROM PAGE 39, 


1841 and Onechtidtum nanum Philippi, 1844. One is from Naples (Delle 
Chiaje), the other from Marseille, and from Finistére, so that it does 
not concern me, I will accept it as eelttca. I have already asked 
Poizat and Bouchet and Schmekel whether thay have specimens to send, 
and I don't know of other specialists who might do so. However, my 
last request was so well answered, that I try once again. Furthermore 
I have several single specimens of Bosellias, the mimetic ones on the 
alga Halitmeda, and don't know where to begin, If I look at the radula, 
the reproductive organs are spoiled, and if I look at those the radula 
may be lost. In any case, the TYPE SPECIMEN is destroyed! One came 
from Port Sudah, one from Salvador, Bahia, Brazil, whence I hope for 
more specimens, and one without locality, and as a set of 34 slides 
with 20 sections each. That it is not B. mimetica is recognizable, but 
to make a diagnosis from 34 slides is no great pleasure." 


Clayton Carlson and Patty Jo Hoff provided a beautiful color Christmas 
card of Cheltdonura htrundintina.
