Shell variations of Siphonaria gigas (Sowerby, 1825) in response to the effect of wave intensity

Shell variations of Siphonaria gigas (Sowerby, 1825) in response to the effect of wave intensity

A factorial sampling was conducted to determine the effect of wave intensity on shell length, height and thickness of the limpet Siphonaria gigas (Sowerby, 1835). The main objective was to distinguish between different wave intensity effects on each shell feature. The sampling was carried out at a s...

The main objective was to distinguish between different wave intensity effects on each shell feature. The sampling was carried out at a sheltered and exposed rocky shore at Utría Cove, on the Pacific coast of Colombia. Wave intensity was found to be a determining factor (P < 0.001) in shell changes, producing short, thick shells on the exposed rocky shore. Se realizó un muestreo factorial para determinar el efecto de la intensidad del oleaje sobre la longitud, la altura y el grosor de la concha del gasterópodo Siphonaria gigas (Sowerby, 1835). El principal objetivo fue distinguir el efecto entre distintas intensidades de oleaje sobre cada una de las características de la concha. El muestreo se llevó a cabo en una playa rocosa protegida y una expuesta de la Ensenada de Utría, sobre la costa Pacífica de Colombia. Se encontró que la intensidad de las olas es un factor determinante (P < 0.001) en la variación de la concha, causando conchas gruesas y menos altas en la costa rocosa expuesta.
