Report: “Assiminea grayana (March snail): Histology; Weser estuary (2007)»
Description
The marching snail Assiminea grayana is one of the prosobranchi that has led evolution to a way of life in the Supralitoral. [...] Morphologically and histologically, it has been roughly described and has some peculiarities in the family of the Rissoidea. [...] In addition to the regular annual TBT-effect monitoring studies on the Lower Saxony coast, investigations were carried out on Assimineen from two stations in the Weserästuar. It should be clarified whether this prosobranchiene species, similar to Littorina littorea, Hydrobia ulvae and other species, can detect effects on the reproductive system by organozinn compounds present in the sediment.”
