“…The occurrence of a high abundance of SDF has been related to the sinking http://epublishing.ekt.gr | e-Publisher: EKT | Downloaded at 12/05/2018 10:06:52 | of phytodetritus (Quijón et al, 2008 and reference therein). According to the review of Reynolds et al (2002) on the Scaphopoda class, A. inequicostata has often been classified as a predator, but it has also been reported as a deposit or suspension feeder, feeding on foraminifers and other microorganisms (diatoms) using its tentacles.…”

The macrozoobenthic community at a sublittoral station located in the Marine Protected Area of Miramare, Gulf of Trieste (Italy) was investigated monthly from June 2002 to July 2005. Community variables were studied and related to food sources (particulate, total and biopolymeric carbon contents, benthic microalgae and meiofauna). In addition, the macrofaunal response to a heatwave that occurred in summer 2003 in the area was also explored. Univariate and multivariate analyses highlighted that the macrozoobenthic community structure shifted towards the end of the study. Diversity remained fairly stable throughout the study, despite the high turnover values. From a dominance of short-lived invertebrates related to irregular fresh organic matter inputs, the community shifted toward long-lived taxa, principally related to an increase of biopolymeric C and microalgal biomass. Semelparous invertebrates seem to be less resistant to high temperatures compared to iteroparous ones. The latter proved to be capable competitors since they prevailed over the semelparous species towards the end of the study.The community exhibited a certain degree of resistance to high temperature, due to the adaptation of the macrofaunal invertebrates to this particular stress, induced by the wide natural fluctuations in temperature that occur on a seasonal basis in the Gulf of Trieste. This study highlights the importance of long datasets to assess the state and ecological processes of the macrofaunal communities.

“…The absence of key organ systems, such as ctenidia and heart, confounds anatomical comparisons to other molluscs (Reynolds 2002). Confusion exists even over the fundamental anatomical axes of the body (Dinamani 1964;Wanninger and Haszprunar 2001;Sumner-Rooney et al 2015).…”

“…Scaphopods are infaunal marine burrowers that can be found in oceans all over the world, either in intertidal zones or in abyssal depths (Reynolds & Steiner 2008). They are distinguished by an external tubular shell, opened at both ends and with a degree of curvature (Reynolds 2002).…”

This review aims to present an updated checklist of scaphopods, based mainly on literature database. There is a total of 40 species (six families) for Brazil, including information about the distribution and bathymetric range of each taxon. We propose two synonyms with the aid of morphometry of the shell, for the genus Gadila: G. longa as junior synonym of G. elongata and G. robusta as junior synonym of G. pandionis.
