Philippiness gift basket A Strombus taurus Herd Visits Kwajalein Isleby Scott JohnsonUntil 1968, Strombus taurus Reeve, 1857, was known at Kwajalein Atoll from only one or two very old dead specimens. The inability of 150 divers to come up with even one live specimen convinced most of us that it was a very rare shell which we would probably never see. Philippiness gift basket
Philippiness gift basket The shift in the "dominant" species among Pacific Island groups, the difference in habitat observed in Philippines, and the greater size associated with some of the Philippines species may be correlated with ecological peculiarities of the Philippines habitat. While it is not the purpose of this paper to discuss these features in detail, it can be mentioned that they primarily include differences in temperature and reef structure. In the latter instance the reefs of the eastern Philippines Islands lack several genera of reef-building corals such as Acropora which contribute to reef formation elsewhere in the Pacific. The bearing of these features, and possible modes of speciation in the Philippines Cypraea which are suggested by the data described above will be discussed in a later paper. Philippiness gift basket
