“…Marine gastropods and bivalves are some of the most diverse invertebrate groups in nature, but in Iraq a better knowledge of their taxonomic composition is required. Although there are important studies on mollusks in the Iraqi marine coast (Ahmed, 1974;Al-Hassan and Al-Hasani, 1985;Yasser & Naser, 2021;Yasser et al, 2022), many new records are being recorded from time to time.…”

Six marine bivalves species were recorded from the north west of the Arabian Gulf, Iraqi coast from 2020 to 2021. The species are Acar plicata (Dillwyn, 1817) (family Arcidae), Sunetta effossa (Hanley, 1843) (family Veneridae), Scissileda tropica (Melvill, 1897) (family Yoldiidae), Protapes cor (Sowerby, 1853) (family Veneridae), Circentia callipyga (Born, 1778) (family Veneridae) and Acrosterigma lacunosa (Reeve, 1845) (family Cardiidae). These records raise the number of marine bivalves known from the Iraqi coast to 38 species.

“…The marine Mollusca of Iraq are poorly studied with the most recent being a checklist of marine gastropods (Yasser & Naser, 2021) in which 34 species are recorded. No recent equivalent list for the Bivalvia is available but a few species were recorded by Ahmed (1975), andAl-Hassan &Al-Hasani (1985).…”

Additional records of marine bivalves from Iraq, with a provisional checklist for the marine bivalves of Iraq

Specimens of four species of Bivalvia not previously recorded from Iraq were discovered. These are Didimacar tenebrica, Aspidopholas obtecta, Neotrapezium sublaevigatum, and Barbatia trapezina which belong to the Noetiidae, Pholadidae, Trapezidae and Arcidae families, respectively. All specimens were collected alive from the intertidal zone of the northwest Persian-Arabian Gulf, Iraq, in the Fao region. Although these species are widespread in the Persian-Arabian Gulf, our study is the first to report them along the Iraqi coast. A provisional checklist of marine bivalves of Iraq is presented listing 32 species of which 21 have been verified from specimens or photographs. This list is compared with data from adjacent coasts of Kuwait and Iran.

The study of newly collected, live specimens of Pupa (Acteonidae) from New Caledonia and French Polynesia, revealed the presence of six distinct species in this region, including an undescribed species. All these species are re-described and/or named using molecular and morphological evidence as well as a review of the literature and examination of photographs of the type material of described species. Moreover, a review of the literature and type material suggests the existence of six additional species from other geographic regions across the Indo-Pacific. Illustrations of all these species are provided as well as remarks on possible synonymies. This study is the first species-level review of this group using modern taxonomic techniques.
