Abyssomelania

description: Abyssomelania sp.
(Fig. 6A–D)
2015 Gastropoda gen. et sp. indet. A; Hryniewicz et al. 2015a, table 1.
Description. Shell small for genus (6.4 mm high and 3.4 mm wide). Suture weakly incised. The maximum of whorl diameter slightly above the abapical suture. Lateral flanks smooth apart from opisthocline growth lines and faint and strongly inclined prosocline abyssomelanid riblets (see Kaim et al. 2014 for explanation). Base ornamented by numerous (11–12) broad spiral ribs intersected by growth lines without any knobs at the intersections. Protoconch, juvenile teleoconch and aperture not preserved.
Material and occurrence: One specimen (PMO 224.758) from seep #3, Sassenfjorden, Svalbard; late Tithonian, Late Jurassic.
Remarks. Abyssomelania species were previously known from Cretaceous Pacific seeps (Albian of California and Campanian of New Zealand). Now its palaeogeographic range extends to the Paleo-Barents Sea and its temporal range extends back to the latest Late Jurassic (Tithonian). Abyssomelania sp. from Svalbard is also the smallest known species of the genus and has the faintest abyssomelanid riblets, which are also very strongly prosocline compared to the other species of the genus.

description: Hudlestoniella hammeri sp. nov.
(Fig. 5A–G)
2015 Hudlestoniella sp.; Hryniewicz et al. 2015a, table 1.
Diagnosis. Teleoconch high spired. Three earliest teleoconch whorl ornamented with strong opisthocline axial ribs and fine spiral lirae. Ornamentation fading away later in ontogeny.
Holotype: PMO 224.754, H = 3.6 mm.
Type locality and age: Seep # 9 in Sassenfjorden area, Svalbard; late Berriasian, Early Cretaceous.
Paratype: PMO 224.755, H = 8.8 mm, W = 7.0 mm.
Additional material: Seventeen specimens; one from seep #5 (late Berriasian), five specimens from seep #8 (late Tithonian), four specimens (two illustrated PMO 224.756 and PMO 224.757) from seep #9 (late Berriasian), and seven specimens from seep #12 (late Berriasian), Sassenfjorden, Svalbard.
Description. Protoconch low spired, seemingly smooth. Demarcation between protoconch and teleoconch not observed. Early teleoconch ornamented with strong, strongly opisthocyrt axial ribs and fine spiral lirae. After the third teleoconch whorl axial ribs absent and spiral lirae are only weakly expressed in the adapical and abapical portion of the shell. Growth lines opisthocyrt throughout ontogeny. Aperture not preserved.
Remarks. Hudlestoniella hammeri is most similar to H. undulata (Tullberg, 1881) (see also Kaim et al. 2004) in having strong opisthocyrt axial ribs, but H. undulata has slightly broader shells and differs in having spiral striae instead of lirae, and its axial ribs persist longer during ontogeny. Hudlestoniella pusilla (Tullberg, 1881) (see also Kaim et al. 2004) is similar in being ornamented by spiral lirae and smooth ontogenetically late whorls, but differs from H. hammeri in being less elongated and in having weaker and only weakly opisthocyrt axial ribs.
Distribution. Late Tithonian–late Berriasian of Sassenfjorden, Svalbard.
Etymology. After Øyvind Hammer, palaeontologist and member of the team that collected the fossils described here.

(Fig. 7)
2015 Gastropoda gen. et sp. indet. B; Hryniewicz et al. 2015a, table 1.
Diagnosis. Large multispiral protoconch ornamented with spiral bands. Naticiform teleoconch with stongly prosocline growth lines and deeply incised suture.
Holotype: PMO 217.512, H = 1.6 mm, W = 2.1 mm; one specimen only.
Type locality and age: Seep # 9 in Sassenfjorden area, Svalbard; late Berriasian, Early Cretaceous.
Description. Protoconch only partially preserved but large (1.1 mm in diameter) and ornamented by strong spiral bands. Demarcation between protoconch and teleoconch poorly preserved but seemingly expressed by a change in coiling geometry. Teleoconch naticiform with incised suture and strongly convex whorls. Shell flanks smooth apart from well expressed and strongly prosocline growth lines. Aperture and umbilical region not preserved.
Remarks. In spite of having only a single and imperfectly preserved specimen, we decided to describe a new genus and species, warranted by the unique set of characters, including a naticiform shell with strong, prosocline growth lines and a large protoconch ornamented by spiral bands. The most similar teleoconchs are observed in members of the Gyrodidae Wenz, 1938, which are considered either as ampullospirids (Campaniloidea) by Kase & Ishikawa (2003) or naticoids by Bandel (1999) and Bandel & Dockery (2016). However, gyrodids posses entirely smooth protoconchs (Dockery 1993; Bandel 1999). The only group having comparable large protoconch with spiral ornament we could trace is the naticoid subfamily Sininae. The protoconch of the Recent Sinum perspectivum (Say, 1831), illustrated by Bandel (1999), is large (1.5 mm of diameter) and strongly ornamented by spiral ribs. However, in contrast to S. sassenfjordensis the teloconch of Sinum also possesses a strong spiral ornament. Our identification of S. sassenfjordensis as Naticidae: Sininae remains, however, tentative, as according to Kase & Ishikawa (2003) the oldest confirmed Naticidae come from the Campanian (Late Cretaceous). A Berriasian (Early Cretaceous) age would be a large backward extension to the fossil record (approx. 60 myr) of this taxon.
Distribution. Type locality only.
Etymology. After its type area in Svalbard.

description: Genus Cretadmete Blagovetshenskiy & Shumilkin, 2006
Type species. Cretadmete neglecta Blagovetshenskiy & Shumilkin, 2006 by OD; Upper Hauterivian (Early Cretaceous) of Slantsevyi Rudnik, Ulyanovsk Region, Russia.
Remarks. Blagovetshenskiy & Shumilkin (2006) placed Cretadmete in Admetidae Troschel, 1865. The type species of Admete, A. viridula (Fabricius, 1780), possesses two columellar folds and a paucispiral protoconch (Harasewych & Petit 1986) while Cretadmete has no columellar folds or plaits and a multispiral protoconch (Blagovetshenskiy & Shumilkin 2006), which is very similar to protoconchs of Purpurinidae (Guzhov 2004; Kaim 2004). Purpurindae have been suspected for a long time to be a sister group (Taylor et al. 1980) or stem group (Kaim 2004) of Neogastropoda and recently they have been treated as a family of Neogastropoda with uncertain superfamilial position (Bouchet et al. in press).

description: Cretadmete sp.
(Fig. 8A–C)
2015 Maturifusidae? gen. et sp. indet.; Hryniewicz et al. 2015a, table 1.
Description. Protoconch not preserved. Shell small, 4.5 mm in height and 5.3 mm in width, fusiform/turbiniform with two strongly convex whorls preserved. Suture moderately incised. Shell flank ornamented with numerous spiral cords arranged in two orders; each two 1 st order cords sandwich one weaker 2nd order cord. The spiral ornament is crossed by prosocline axial ridges with no clear knobs and the intersections, which, however, might be slightly undulating in the adapical portion of flank. Transition between flank and base without angulation, but distinct due to disappearance of axial ornamentation and 2nd order spiral cords. Aperture poorly preserved with no apertural elaborations visible. Anterior part of the aperture broken off. No umbilicus.
Material and occurrence: One specimen (PMO 224.762) from seep deposit #8, Sassenfjorden, Svalbard; Late Tithonian, Late Jurassic.
Remarks. This juvenile shell is remarkably similar to Cretadmete neglecta Blagovetshenskiy & Shumilkin, 2006, from the Upper Hauterivian (Early Cretaceous) of the Ulyanovsk Region in Russia. Blagovetshenskiy & Shumilkin (2006) included six species in Cretadmete ranging in age from the Oxfordian to the Albian. We refrain from placing our shell into any of these species due to its fragmentary preservation. A similar type of teleoconch, but with entirely different cancellate protoconch, has been reported by Schröder (1995: pl. 7: 3–4) in a juvenile shell from the Albian of Germany, which has been interpreted by Bandel (1993) as a species of Rapana and considered by him to be the oldest record of the tonnoideans. Wollemann (1900, 1907, 1909) reported from the same strata several species similar to Cretadmete (but without protoconchs); this entire group of taxa requires thorough review.

description: Genus Hyalogyrina Marshall, 1988
Type species. Hyalogyrina glabra Marshall, 1988; original designation. New Zealand, Recent.
Remarks. Hyalogyrinidae unite small, largely smooth-shelled lower heterobranchs which differ from each other mostly in radular characters. Warén & Bouchet (1993) argue that Hyalogyrina Marshall, 1988, and Hyalogyra Marshall, 1988 differ in the type of protoconch ― hyperstrophic and not hyperstrophic, respectively. Our shells seem to have a hyperstrophic protoconch and this is why we classify them in Hyalogyrina. There are a number of similar genera described from the fossil record: Bandellina Schröder, 1995, Alexogyra Bandel, 1996, Carboninia Bandel, 1996 and Doggerostra Gründel, 1998, which differ from each other only in minor details. This led Kaim (2004) to synonymize them all in the genus Bandellina Schröder, 1995. It seems, however, that the majority of these forms might instead be classified in Hyalogyrina Marshall, 1988 as they form a continuum of morphologically similar forms with a hyperstrophic protoconch, with the name Hyalogyrina having priority. Bandel (1996) stated that his Triassic genus Alexogyra differs from the Recent genus Hyalogyra in being smaller and having more protoconch whorls.

description: Hyalogyrina knorringfjelletensis sp. nov.
(Fig. 9)
2015 Hyalogyrinidae? gen. et sp. indet.; Hryniewicz et al. 2015a, table 1.
Diagnosis. Relatively large low-spired hyalogyrinid with delicate lirate ornamentation on the shell flank.
Holotype: PMO 217. 511a, H = 2.6 mm, W = 4.3 mm.
Paratype: PMO 217.510, W = 5.2 mm.
Type locality and age: Seep #12, Sassenfjorden, Svalbard; late Berriasian (Early Cretaceous).
Other material: Two specimens, both illustrated. One from seep #9 (Fig. 9G; PMO 224.763) and one from seep #12 (Fig. 9A, F; PMO 217.508); Sassenfjorden, Svalbard; late Berriasian (Early Cretaceous).
Description. Protoconch poorly preserved but apparently hyperstrophic (Fig. 9G, H). Shell turbinateskeneiform, large for the genus. Teleoconch formed of up to four whorls, strongly and evenly convex and ornamented with delicate lirate ornamentation. Growth lines prosocline. Umbilicus and umbilical wall obscured by rock matrix in available specimens. Aperture sub-circular, complete.
Remarks. Hyalogyrina knorringfjelleti differs from other similar taxa, both fossil and modern, in having a relatively large size and delicately ornamented shell flanks, recollecting the ornament seen on the umbilical wall of modern hyalogyrinids (Marshall 1988). Hyalogyrina knorringfjelletensis is strongly reminiscent of Alexogyra Bandel, 1996 (synonymized with Bandellina Schröder, 1995 by Kaim 2004) and modern species of Hyalogyrina Marshall, 1988.
Distribution: Seeps #9 and #12, Sassenfjorden, Svalbard. Late Berriasian, Early Cretaceous. Etymology: After Knorringfjellet, a mountain above the type locality.

Material examined. CANADA: Manitoba, Lake Winnipeg, Beaver Creek, emergence trap, 1 male, 21.vi. 1969; Narrows, 3 larvae, 9.vii. –10.ix.1969.
To the description of the male by Roback (1971: 18) the following can be added: Anepisternum II with about 8 setae, preepisternum with about 48 setae, sensilla chaetica absent. The head capsule lengths of the Lake Winnipeg larvae are 700 µm for the fourth instar, 370–420 µm (2) for the third instars.
Distribution and ecology. The species is present in small ponds, lakes and rivers. It seems to prefer soft mud, occasionally with some sand in shallow areas (Roback 1976: 194). It is known from Romania, Russia and Turkey, and from Manitoba and Ontario in Canada and widespread in USA (Roback 1976: 193, Oliver et al. 1990: 8; Spies 1999; Epler 2003, 2010; Caldwell 2009; Saether & Spies 2004; Ashe & O’Connor 2009: 138).

The species was never caught in the light traps. Eleven larvae were found in the bottom samples. The head capsule lengths of instars 4–2 are: 595–725, 651 µm (8); 400–440 µm (2); 230 µm (1).
Distribution and ecology. The species is known from Québec and New York to Manitoba and Nebraska and south to Florida, Texas and Mexico, Panama Canal Zone and Nicaragua, and possibly from Argentina, Bolivia and Venezuela (Roback 1971: 32, 1974b: 9, 17; Oliver et al. 1990: 8; Epler 2003, 2006; Caldwell 2009; Ashe & O’Connor 2009: 142). It is known from rivers and shallow areas of lakes (Roback 1974: 14).

Material examined. CANADA: Manitoba, Lake Winnipeg, Beaver Creek, 1 male, 8.viii. 1969.
Neither this species nor either of the other two species of Tanypus had setae on preepisternum or anepisternum or any sensilla chaetica on metatarsi. No Tanypus immatures were caught in the dredge samples. Most adults were taken in emergence traps near Beaver Creek in 1971.
Distribution. T. concavus was previously known from Ohio, New York and Virginia to Iowa and Texas and possibly Illinois (Roback 1971: 64, 1977: 78; Oliver et al. 1990: 16; Epler 2003; Ashe & O’Connor 2009: 228). The species obviously is rare in Lake Winnipeg.

Material examined. CANADA: Manitoba, Lake Winnipeg, Hecla Island, 2 males, 27.vii. 1971; Beaver Creek, 2 males, 26.vii. 1971.
Distribution and ecology. The species is a summer form known from running waters, littoral of lakes, ponds and puddles in most of North America and the Palaearctic region and from Oriental China, Taiwan and Indonesia (Brundin 1949: 694; Thienemann 1954: 505, 511, 541, 649; Reiss 1968: 225; Roback 1971: 67, 1977: 77; Oliver et al. 1990: 16; Spies 1999; Epler 2003, 2010; Caldwell 2009; Ashe & O’Connor 2009: 231). Brundin (1949: 694) regards the species in Sweden as a southern one reaching its highest development in eutrophic lakes. According to Thienemann (1954: 649) T. punctipennis is weakly saprophilous. In Lake Winnipeg the species probably is restricted to the mud of lower parts of streams and rivers and to isolated shallow bays, i.e. corresponding to the distribution in Lake Constance (Reiss 1968: 225).

(Fig. 3 A–D)
Material examined. CANADA: Manitoba, Lake Winnipeg, emergence trap, Beaver Creek, 1 male, 21.vii. 1971.
The specimen from Lake Winnipeg has somewhat more smoky wings and slightly darker spots (Fig. 3 C) than that illustrated by Roback (1971 fig. 123). The gonostylus (Fig. 3 D) also has a slightly stronger heel than illustrated by Roback (1971 fig. 124). In other details, however, the Lake Winnipeg specimen fits the description by Roback (1971: 69) and the identification has been confirmed by Dr. S. S. Roback.
Distribution and ecology. This species is a summer form known from all over Europe, from Siberia, Turkey and Java, and from Manitoba, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin (Oliver et al. 1990: 16, Saether & Spies 2004, Ashe & O’Connor 2009: 232). The larva lives in lakes, ponds and running waters. T. vilipennis is very rare in Lake Winnipeg.

The wing markings of this specimen differ slightly from those figured by Roback (1971 figs. 213, 215). However, there seems to be little doubt about the identification which also has been confirmed by Dr. S. S. Roback.
Distribution and ecology. According to Roback (1971: 98–99) P. d y a r i is a very common species tolerating a wide variety of ecological conditions. It is found in the cleanest waters as well as in some of the most polluted. The species is known from ponds, lakes, rivers and streams over most of North America (Roback 1971: 100, 1978:174; Oliver et al. 1990: 9; Spies 1999; Epler 2003, 2010; Caldwell 2009; Ashe & O’Connor 2009: 219).

description: Ablabesmyia Johannsen
Seven species of Ablabesmyia were found in the light traps: Ablabesmyia (Karelia) illinoensis (Malloch), A. (K.) philosphagnos Beck & Beck, A. (K.) pulchripennis (Lundbeck), A. (A.) mallochi (Walley), A. (A.) aspera (Roback), A. (A.) basalis (Walley), A. (A.) monilis auct. nec L., and A. (Asayia) annulata (Say). Of these, however, four were never taken from bottom samples in 1969. Only A. (A.) annulata was common in the dredge samples. The genus is treated in a separate paper (Saether 2011).

Distribution and ecology. The species is known from Fennoscandia, Central Europe, Russian Far East, Ontario, and Northwest Territories, Manitoba and Ontario south to Alabama and Florida (Fittkau 1962: 261; Roback 1971: 261; Bilyj1988; Oliver et al. 1990: 11; Epler 2003, 2010; Caldwell 2009; Saether & Spies 2004; Ashe & O’Connor 2009: 158). The species is most common in all kinds of smaller waters, but occurs also in the littoral zone of lakes. It appears to be most characteristic in bog waters (Fittkau 1962: 261) although Brundin (1949: 680) regards the species as eurytrophic shallow water form.
