“Recent studies have shown that some species of #scallop are drawn to #light, and this has resulted in an innovative new method of #fishing that is more sustainable: Instead of using a net to drag along the sea floor, fishermen can now use lobster pots equipped with little #LED lights, a bit like an #underwater disco.”

In the vast expanse of the ocean, few creatures command attention like the #nudibranch. With horn-like tentacles and feathery gills, nudibranchs come in a dazzling array of shapes and sizes, each more mesmerizing than the last. Some use camouflage to blend seamlessly into their colorful surroundings—anemones, corals, seagrass, etc—while others use bold and contrasting hues to warn predators to beware.

Two #freshwater #mussel species that live in the rivers of the eastern #UnitedStates have been listed as threatened by the #USFWS under the #EndangeredSpeciesAct.
They are the longsolid (Fusconaia subrotunda) and round hickorynut (Obovaria subrotunda).

A time lapse of what I think is a Gastropod embryo. I loved watching this, I hope you do too!

Brown-lipped or grove #snail or simply the garden snail (Cepaea nemoralis) chewing away at a slice of carrot.

Fast movers! Brown-lipped or grove #snails or simply the garden snail (Cepaea nemoralis) walking along on a piece of #moss and #lichen covered #tree bark that sits conveniently inside a large glass jar. These things are not just fast movers but they are also quite strong. Watch out for the one coming up from underneath, pushing the entire tree bark aside to make space for the shell!

#Dogwalking miscellany
I'll pull these two out from the previous CW, as I don't think either is in any way affronting. If you want to see the two equivalent animals (another #mollusc, and #cnidarian) see the previous post.
Here's an amended description:
The first image is the beautiful radial skeleton of the Blue Button, or Porpita porpita, a colony organism (when alive), made up of cooperating hydroids. It drifts in the surface waters, using its stinging tentacles to capture small copepods, but will also hunt crabs and fish.
Next is a mollusc, which preys on the former, amongst other things.
It’s the beautiful violet sea snail, Janthina janthina, a free-floating snail that uses a raft of bubbles to keep it on the sea’s surface where it preys on hydrozoa. (Unlike the first, this was taken back home with my D700, not the iPhone3GS).

#Oder: #Poland must act, or there will be another massive #fish & #mollusc die-off.
Despite an order from a Warsaw court to halt construction on the river, the works are proceeding unhindered: Polish law is being openly violated - so far without consequences.
RT @_Zimmerfrau: Poland's failure to rein in industrial emissions is putting the Oder River on course for another major environmental disaster, campaigners, scientists and MEPs warn.
