Paralytic shellfish poisoning (PSP), due to saxitoxin and related compounds, typically results from the consumption of filter-feeding molluscan shellfish that concentrate toxins from marine dinoflagellates. In addition to these microalgal sources, saxitoxin and related compounds, referred to in this review as STXs, are also produced in freshwater cyanobacteria and have been associated with calcareous red macroalgae. STXs are transferred and bioaccumulate throughout aquatic food webs, and can be vectored to terrestrial biota, including humans. Fisheries closures and human intoxications due to STXs have been documented in several non-traditional (i.e. non-filter-feeding) vectors. These include, but are not limited to, marine gastropods, both carnivorous and grazing, crustacea, and fish that acquire STXs through toxin transfer. Often due to spatial, temporal, or a species disconnection from the primary source of STXs (bloom forming dinoflagellates), monitoring and management of such non-traditional PSP vectors has been challenging. A brief literature review is provided for filter feeding (traditional) and non-filter feeding (non-traditional) vectors of STXs with specific reference to human effects. We include several case studies pertaining to management actions to prevent PSP, as well as food poisoning incidents from STX(s) accumulation in non-traditional PSP vectors. 相似文献

- 1. Using production of faecal pellets as a proxy for feeding rate, possible reciprocal effects of the widespread and abundant mudsnails Hydrobia ulvae and Hydrobia ventrosa on the rare Hydrobia acuta neglecta were investigated under the sea‐water salinity conditions in which all three species occur naturally in East Anglia, UK.
- 2. Over a density range equivalent to 1000–34 000 m?2, H. acuta and H. ventrosa (though not H. ulvae) at some point displayed an intraspecific reduction in egestion with increase in density. For H. acuta, every 5000 extra snails above a threshold of 16 000 m?2 reduced egestion by up to 8%; and for H. ventrosa, every 5000 extra snails above a threshold of 8000 m?2 reduced egestion by an average 7%.
- 3. Keeping the density of one test species constant at 4000 m?2 whilst varying that of a sympatric one from 0 up to 30 000 m?2 indicates that H. ulvae has a marked effect on H. acuta at all densities, decreasing its egestion by 10% for every 5000 m?2 H. ulvae also present, but that H. acuta has no such reciprocal effect on H. ulvae. H. ventrosa had no effect on egestion in H. acuta, although H. acuta did have some minor effect on H. ventrosa, on average decreasing its egestion by 3% for every 5000 m?2 H. acuta present.
- 4. The intensity of intraspecific competition within H. acuta, therefore, exceeds that exerted on H. acuta by H. ventrosa, and likewise intraspecific effects within H. ventrosa generally outweigh any interspecific effect from H. acuta. The effect of H. ulvae on H. acuta, however, exceeds that intraspecifically within H. acuta.
- 5. These results are discussed in relation to the rarity of H. acuta neglecta.

Several slug species are highly pestiferous and threaten global sustainable agriculture. Current control methods rely heavily on metaldehyde pellets, which are often ineffective, harm nontarget organisms and have been banned in some countries. A viable alternative is the parasitic nematode Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita (and recently P. californica), which has been formulated into a biological control agent (Nemaslug®) to control slugs across northern Europe. Nematodes are mixed with water and applied to soil where they seek out slugs, penetrate behind the mantle and kill them in 4–21 days. Phasmarhabditis hermaphrodita has been on the market since 1994 and since then there has been ample research on its use. Here we review the research carried out on P. hermaphrodita over the last 30 years since its development and release as a commercial product. We provide information on life cycle, worldwide distribution, history of commercialisation, gastropod immunity, host range, ecological and environmental factors that affect its success in the field, bacterial relationships, and summarise results of field trials. Finally, we suggest future directions for P. hermaphrodita research (and other Phasmarhabditis species) to enhance its use as a biological control agent to control slugs for the next 30 years. © 2023 The Authors.

The suckling behaviour in four consecutive litters of a captive female Dendrohyrax arboreus is described. The young showed teat constancy which was established by day four of age without aggressive interactions, and maintained until weaning in all multiple litters. A preference for the more productive inguinal teats was apparent. Frequency of suckling bouts decreased with time but their duration increased. Most suckling occurred shortly after dawn and before dusk. The female showed decreasing maternal care in each successive litter. 相似文献

Research on marine gastropod breeding in India is in its infancy and scanty literature is only available. To fill the lacunae, marine gastropods of three ornamentally valued and conservation important groups such as Cyprids, Strombids and Muricids were held under captivity and studied for their broodstock maintenance, spawning behaviour, larval rearing and metamorphosis into juveniles at the Shellfish Hatchery of Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute, Tuticorin. Valuable information on the focal themes of the article was obtained for Strombids and Muricids leading to the successful life cycle closing for Lambis lambis and Chicoreus virgineus are reported earlier. In the present study, experiments were conducted on aspects such as post‐metamorphosed juvenile rearing up to 76 days post hatch for L. lambis, spawning, larval development and life cycle closing and reasonable level of juvenile production (8.8%) for Chicoreus ramosus. In addition, the primary observations on the captive breeding of Cypraea tigris with reference to its egg mass, brooding habit and early development is reported. However, while studying these groups few unanswered questions and bottle necks in their breeding nature, larval rearing and metamorphosis arose. The following account details the experiments conducted and results obtained in each of the focal themes of the paper and the constraints faced. 相似文献

New gastropod vectors and tetrodotoxin potential expansion in temperate waters of the Atlantic Ocean
Tetrodotoxin is a potent low weight marine toxin found in warm waters, especially of the Indian and Pacific Oceans. Intoxications are usually linked to the consumption of the puffer fish, although TTX was already detected in several different edible taxa. Benthic organisms such as mollusks and echinoderms, with different feeding habits, were collected monthly along the Portuguese coast from the summer of 2009 until the end of 2010. The extraction and analysis techniques were optimized and TTX and some analogues were detected for the first time in two intertidal gastropod species-Gibbula umbilicalis and Monodonta lineata by LC-MS/MS and UPLC-MS/MS. Although the levels are low, these findings suggest that monitoring of TTX and analogues in North Atlantic species should be implemented so as to detect potentially new toxin vectors and seasonal and/or geographical patterns. 相似文献
