| Abstract |
We report the mollusks associated to the right valve of the rock oyster Striostrea prismatica Gray, 1825. A total of twelve valves preserved in 96% alcohol were examined. The mollusks associated to the valves were examined using a stereoscope. The valves analysed had a minimum length of 61.1 mm and a maximum length of 84.2 mm. A total of 164 molluscs associated to the twelve valves were quantified, represented by the classes Gastropoda and Bivalvia, with a total of 8 families, 11 genera, and 12 species. We identified four species of gastropods and eight species of bivalves. The most abundant families were Mytilidae (Bivalvia) with 64.0 % and Hipponicidae (Gastropoda) with 11.6 %. The average abundance of the study was 13.7 molluscs/valve. Internal marks were quantified in the valves, caused by the borer bivalve Leiosolenus aristatus. This study contributes to the diversity of mollusks associated to Striostrea prismatica. |
