Species that develop in left-right polarity reversal have repeatedly evolved in gastropods, uniquely among metazoans. To clarify mechanisms underlying the evolution of whole-body reversal, it is essential to understand the genetic variability of developmental polarity. Here we show experimental evidence for the maternal inheritance of racemism, in which both dextral and sinistral siblings are produced in the same broods, in the ovoviviparous land snail Hemizaptyx stimpsoni. In contrast to the traditionally known variation in left-right polarity that is determined by the dichotomous dextral and sinistral alleles, we found that a recessive allele at a nuclear locus is responsible for the present racemism. This genetic basis allowed us to estimate the frequency of the enantiomorphy allele to be 0.2 to 0.3 in the population where we found dextral variants. The ratio between dextral and sinistral siblings was close to 0.5 in total mean but bimodally distributed among maternal parents. The overall proportions of morphs changed across generations suggesting the operation of additional genetic factors. There was no detectable difference in the reproductive success of interchiral and intrachiral mating pairs. This suggests that positive frequency-dependent selection in high-spired snails may not necessarily be as strong as that known in the chirally-dimorphic Partula suturalis.

Although the fiddler crab Uca arcuata (De Haan, 1833) has been widely recorded from Kii Peninsula, central Japan to Okinawa Inland, the local populations of this species have seriously declined recently. In the Red Data Book of Japanese marine and freshwater benthic animals in 1995, this species was listed in "RARE" category, which means the species with small populations and at risk of extinction. Our recent investigations (2000-2001) recorded small populations of this species in the estuaries of the Koya and Imazu rivers (Yamaguchi Prefecture) and the Nagae River (Okayama Prefecture) in Chûgoku District. In the Koya River, the average density was 3.7 individuals per m², and the estimated number of individuals inhabited was 65100. These numbers indicate that the population size in this locality was as large as that of the Hikawa River in the Ariake Inland Sea, Kyûshû, western Japan.

Inheritance of shell banding in the land snail Bradybaena pellusida. Reviewed

Language：Japanese Publisher：The malacological society of Japan

Bradybaena pellucida is known to be polymorphic for shell banding. In a population in Kochi, Shikoku, it was confirmed that the color of periostracum can be yellow or brown, resulting in the polymorphism of four shell types ; yellow-unbanded (YU), yellow-banded (YS), brown-unbanded (BU), and brown-banded (BS), similarly to the shell polymorphism of its sibling species B. similaris. Breeding experiments were conducted to examine the mode of inheritance of shell banding. The results demonstrated that the banded allele (S''') is dominant to the unbanded one (S^-).
