The evolution of the molluscan biota of Sabaudia Lake: a matter of human history ; Evolución de la comunidad de moluscos del lago Sabaudia: causas antropogénicas

The evolution of the molluscan biota in Sabaudia Lake (Italy, central Tyrrhenian Sea) in the last century is hereby traced on the basis of bibliography, museum type materials, and field samplings carried out from April 2009 to September 2011. Biological assessments revealed clearly distinct phases, elucidating the definitive shift of this human-induced coastal lake from a freshwater to a marine-influenced lagoon ecosystem. Records of marine subfossil taxa suggest that previous accommodations to these environmental features have already occurred in the past, in agreement with historical evidenc... Mehr ...

The evolution of the molluscan biota in Sabaudia Lake (Italy, central Tyrrhenian Sea) in the last century is hereby traced on the basis of bibliography, museum type materials, and field samplings carried out from April 2009 to September 2011. Biological assessments revealed clearly distinct phases, elucidating the definitive shift of this human-induced coastal lake from a freshwater to a marine-influenced lagoon ecosystem. Records of marine subfossil taxa suggest that previous accommodations to these environmental features have already occurred in the past, in agreement with historical evidence. Faunal and ecological insights are offered for its current malacofauna, and special emphasis is given to alien species. Within this framework, Mytilodonta Coen, 1936, Mytilodonta paulae Coen, 1936 and Rissoa paulae Coen in Brunelli and Cannicci, 1940 are also considered new synonyms of Mytilaster Monterosato, 1884, Mytilaster marioni (Locard, 1889) and Rissoa membranacea (J. Adams, 1800). Finally, human-driven environmental changes and cumulative anthropogenic pressures proved to be the whole driver of the constitution of the human-induced malacofauna studied, casting doubts on the correct use of the definition of “native fauna”. ; Se hizo un seguimiento de la evolución de la comunidad de moluscos en el lago Sabaudia (Italia, región central del mar Tirreno), considerando datos del siglo pasado y recurriendo a consultas bibliográficas, material tipo en museos y muestreos de campo realizados entre Abril de 2009 y Septiembre de 2011. Nuestro análisis biológico reveló la existencia de fases bien diferenciadas que muestran de modo claro el cambio definitivo de esta laguna inicialmente de aguas dulces que posteriormente se transformó en un ecosistema de influencia marina debido a la acción humana. El registro de taxones de subfósiles marinos sugiere un contexto ambiental similar en una época anterior, en concordancia con datos históricos. Este trabajo proporciona detalles faunísticos y ecológicos de la malacofauna del lago ...
