“…For the purpose of this SDM study, speci c sites along the Gujarat coast have been selected based on their prominence in Molluscan distribution (Vadher et al, 2023). These sites fall within the coordinates ranging from approximately 20.6°N to 23.7°N latitude and 68.9°E to 72.6°E longitude.…”

This study delves into the Molluscan diversity along the Gujarat coast, India, focusing on the distribution and habitat suitability of four key species: Cerithium caeruleum, Lunella coronata, Peronia verruculata, and Trochus radiatus. Utilizing Species Distribution Models (SDMs) integrated with machine learning algorithms, we assessed the impact of environmental variables on the distribution patterns of these molluscs. Our findings reveal a nuanced understanding of habitat preferences, highlighting the critical roles of salinity, chlorophyll concentration, and water temperature. The MaxEnt model, with the highest Area Under the Curve (AUC) value of 0.63, demonstrated moderate discrimination capability, suggesting room for enhancement in capturing complex ecological interactions. The spatial distribution analysis indicated a random arrangement of species, with no significant spatial autocorrelation observed. This research underscores the significance of advanced modelling techniques in predicting Molluscan distributions, providing insights crucial for the conservation and sustainable management of marine biodiversity along the Gujarat coast.

The Indian Ocean coral reef mantis shrimp, Gonodactylellus demanii (Henderson, 1893), described from the Gulf of Mannar, southeastern India, was thought to range widely, from the northwestern Indian Ocean to the eastern Bay of Bengal, Burma. Reevaluation of G. demanii from throughout its purported range revealed that what was thought to be that species in the northwestern Indian Ocean represents a new species, formally named herein, Gonodactylellus celosinus sp. nov. Gonodactylellus demanii sensu stricto is now known only from the Bay of Bengal (southeastern India to Burma). The taxonomic issues within G. demanii have gone unnoticed until now because the original account was inadequate for recognition of the species and subsequent revisions did not revisit the type or topotypic material. Gonodactylellus demanii is figured alongside G. celosinus sp. nov. to facilitate their recognition.
