Herein, female and male personal eponyms were analyzed from a dataset of 4,915 molluscan species within eight regions worldwide. Eponyms were 12.5% of all species names, within which 10.6% (n = 65) were female and 89.4% (n = 550) were male. Among gastropods, female eponyms accounted for 3.4–18.9% of eponymous species names; male eponyms were 81.1–96.6%. Among bivalves, species names within five of eight regions included no female eponyms. Cephalopod and chiton species included 22 male eponyms and no female eponyms. Scientists and naturalists were honored as the source of 29.2% of female eponyms and 64.6% of male eponyms. First names were the source of 63.1% of female eponyms and 4.6% of male eponyms. Last names were the source of 93.8% of male eponyms and 35.4% of female eponyms. The most eponyms for a woman (n = 4) honor 20th century American malacologist, A. Myra Keen; the most eponyms for a man (n = 6) honor two 19th century English naturalists, Thomas Nuttall and Robert Swinhoe. Gender asymmetry in molluscan eponyms likely reflects barriers to women's participation in malacology, taxonomy, and systematics until the late 20th century. Recognition of this inequity should inform discussions about female representation in scientific names and provide context for understanding the history of eponyms and the people they honor.","PeriodicalId":7779,"journal":{"name":"American Malacological Bulletin","volume":"39 1","pages":"1 - 13"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47343111","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, recent studies indicate that the relationship between initial investment and patterns of sexual selection is more nuanced. Simultaneous hermaphrodite mating systems offer unique opportunities to explore reproductive investment theory, as individuals exhibit fluid preferences for donating or receiving sperm and eggs. Shifts in gender role can depend on environmental or physiological conditions such as size. However, environment factors (e.g. temperature) that affect mating role preference or behavior (e.g. latency to copulate, reciprocity) have not been explored, despite evidence that the physiological consequences of elevated temperature interfere with reproductive success. By constraining the amount of energy available during copulation, elevated temperature may directly impact individual investment, reflected in changes in gender role. We observed courtship and gender roles in Physella acuta (Draparnaud 1805) at standard (19-20°C) and elevated (28-29°C) temperature. Elevated temperature reduced duration and frequency of copulation but had no effect on latency to copulate or reciprocity. Contrary to previous studies, gender role was not found to be size-dependent in either temperature treatment. Lack of size dependence across temperature treatments could be due to low population density or climate in situ. Combined results indicate that although elevated temperature clearly has negative physiological consequences, its impact is not reflected in changes to gender role patterns. This relationship is more complicated than previously expected and requires further study.","PeriodicalId":7779,"journal":{"name":"American Malacological Bulletin","volume":"39 1","pages":"1 - 7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-02-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44666757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The decline in abundance and diversity of Pacific Island land snails has been a major conservation concern for more than six decades, but only the largest and most colorful snails are protected under the US Endangered Species act, and few are listed as critically endangered on the IUCN Red List. Like most invertebrates, the conservation status of many Hawaiian land snails still need assessment. Molecular data are highly informative for revising species limits and understanding evolutionary patterns and processes, but with as much as 70% of Hawaiian land snails already extinct, few fresh samples are available from which to extract DNA. To overcome the lack of material suitable for DNA barcoding, we test whether short DNA fragments of 225 to 355 bp can be sequenced from museum snail shells containing dried tissues collected more than 50 years ago. Short DNA sequences (225 bp) were obtained from 66.7% of lots, while longer DNA sequences (355 bp) were successfully sequenced from 24.2% of lots. Snail specimens stored in natural history cabinets for more than 100 years were successfully sequenced, supporting the inclusion of these materials for modern biodiversity studies. Molecular data from this study represents a small proportion of Hawaiian microsnail species housed among the millions of specimens in the Bishop Museum in Hawaii and other natural history collections. Additional resources and focused efforts are needed to scale this approach to incorporate many more of the hundreds of snail species in need of assessment in Hawaii. More broadly, there are large representative collections of endangered Pacific Island non-marine snails in many natural history museums that may be suitable for molecular work, either with DNA barcoding or other genomic approaches.","PeriodicalId":7779,"journal":{"name":"American Malacological Bulletin","volume":"38 1","pages":"129 - 135"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47223716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
