Bioerosión en micromoluscos holocenos del estuario de Bahía Blanca, Argentina

Abstract

A pesar de su pequeño tamaño, los micromoluscos pueden verse afectados por la actividad bioerosiva sobre sus valvas. En cordones areno-conchilíferos costeros holocenos se determinaron 107 especies de moluscos, de los cuales 38 especies corresponden a micromoluscos. Entre estos últimos, 22 especies muestran signos de bioerosión sobre sus valvas bajo la forma de orificios y grabados. Los orificios debidos a la actividad predadora de gastrópodos natícidos y murícidos tienen forma circular, cilíndrica o troncocónica y son producidos en vida del animal. Los gastrópodos presentan un único orificio mientras que en los bivalvos hay orificios múltiples e incompletos. Son atribuidos a Oichnus simplex Bromley y Oichnus paraboloides Bromley. Los grabados realizados por briozoos cheilostomados sobre las valvas de los micromoluscos se asignan a Leptichnus dromeus Taylor, Wilson y Bromley y pueden producirse tanto en vida como postmortem. Aparecen como hoyos de forma elíptica y dispuestos uniserialmente. Desde el punto de vista etológico, las trazas fósiles se agrupan en: estructuras de predación ( Praedichnia ): Oichnus simplex y Oichnus paraboloides y estructuras de habitación ( Domichnia ): Leptichnus dromeus.

In spite of their size, micromolluscs can be affected by bioerosive activity of organisms on their valves. Of 107 molluscs species found in Holocene sand shell ridges, 35% (38 species) belong to micromolluscs. Only 22 species show bioerosion on their valves. Among bioerosive structures are borings and etchings. Borings are due to predatory activity by naticid and muricid gastropods done in life of micromolluscs. The holes are circular and truncated cone-shaped. A single complete hole is invariably present on gastropods, while common multiple and uncomplete borings occur on bivalve shells. These borings are assigned to Oichnus simplex Bromley and Oichnus paraboloides Bromley. Another group of trace fossils is represented by etchings made by cheilostome bryozoans. The pits have elliptical morphology and are uniserially arranged on micromollusc valves; they are assigned to Leptichnus dromeus Taylor, Wilson and Bromley and are done either in life as postmortem. From an ethologic point of view the trace fossils have been grouped in two categories: predation structures ( Praedichnia ): Oichnus simplex and Oichnus paraboloides and dwelling traces ( Domichnia ): Leptichnus dromeus .
